Politics and International Relations

The United Nations(UN) is the key organization to promote and maintain world peace. Research the UN in the library or on the Internet. If you were working for the UN, which job would like to have using your English abilities? Why?

I would like to teach reading and writing English for children as a employee of UNESCO. There are many people who can't get a enough education in the world because they are poor. Even children have to work, so they can't go to school. As a result, they can't read and write words if they grow up. I think we should give a chance to rceive an education for all people. Therefore, I want to teach English for them.

My Ideal ManThis is my ideal man chart.

I make a point of his personality first than looks. I like the person who is kind and honest. If he has a good personality, I don't care about looks too much.

Money is a little important if I married to him because of life, but I don't care about money if I associated with him.

Cross Culture Comunication

Read the newspaper everyday and find 1 article that has to do with cross culture understanding or differences. In your blog, note the newspaper, date, page (or web address), summarize the article in English and write why you think this is a cross culture situation.

Collegiate all-star series was held game 4 in Durham, North Carolina on July 7. Japan which were just one win away from clinching with two wins and one defeats won 5-2 and captured the pennant of 15 series in two years. Japan won for the first time in competition which was held in the US.

I read a Asahi newspaper on 8, July (http://www.asahi.com/sports/update/0708/TKY200707080054.html).
I think this is a cross culture situation. Excange through sports is a peg to deepen with cross culture understanding because sports is fear and they play same rules without concerning each country. This collegiate all-star series is one of them. A baseball is a team competition and supporters are exciting. I think to play game sweating each other like this comes identification. So, it is important to understand each culture.
