The population problems in China

Population was really a very big, big, big problem in China, not only because the population itself was very big also the problems it cost were also very big.

With almost 1.3 billion populations, for sure, China has the largest population in the world. Although, the government has taken the enforcement of family planning and birthrate laws to decrees the population, China's population has grown to such an enormous size that it has become a problem to both the people and government.

Because of the huge population, it was impossible for the government to support everyone to go to school, so there were still many Chinese grown up without basic education which made them very difficult to survive in the society.

I hope the situation will get better in the future; otherwise it will be a disaster.

The research paper

I didn’t do very well for the whole research thing, first of all I chosen a wrong topic in the beginning so i changed the topic 2 weeks ago. Since I have to finish the whole thing in 3 days I did everything in a hurry. If I have enough time I will do much better.

Well, I still learned a lot during the progress of the research paper, first of all I learned a lot about my topic, the Apple Inc. The history, the products and culture. Now I consider myself as an Apple products expert.

Secondly, I received a lot of benefits from other people’s research papers, not only the insteresting information from their research papers that I didn’t know in the past also the correct way to make a presentation.

I have to say that everybody did a great job, not matter the research paper itself was good or not, at least everybody tried their best and some of them were really good, like Ivy’s presentation, she really did a good job. I was shocked by her power point work, it was fantastic. She really got a lot of interesting pictures and helped me know better about Yoga. Compare with her I thought mine was a mass, because my computer was dead during my presentation and I had to do the presentation without the power point which really made me crazy lately.

I thought I learned a lesson this time and for sure I will do much better next time!

The Publice leacture

The whole public lecture was a great idea; first, I have spend a great time with my friends who attend the same lecture with me, second,I have learned a very available lesson about the borderline personality disorder.

I still can remember that we used a lot of time to find where the lecture was hold and spend a great time on the way to there, because we arrived there very early so we had a plenty of time to chat,and we told a lot of jokes and sorties to each other. It was really a good opportunity to communicate with each others and improve our friendships.

Secondly, during the whole progress of the public lecture, I learned a lot, not only I experienced the academic English lecture also I learned an available lesson about the borderline personality disorder. However, I may have the borderline personality disorder too, because sometimes I was very easy to get angry and I did a lot of crazy things in the past. I think it’s the time for me to pay attention to this issue; otherwise I may get the BPD in the future without conscious.

Well, since this course is almost finish and I will be able to go to the university soon, I think I will have a lot of opportunities to attend the other public lectures, and i can't wait anymore!

Animal testing

The history of animal testing started in the fifteenth century and became worldwide in 1800.For years we human species received a lot of benefits form it, but nowadays people begin to realize that animals have feelings and also can feel pain, so the debate of using animal in the medical research soon became a great controversial topic. Some people believe it is very cruel to test any kind of animals in the lab, while scientists argue that animal testing has a significant meaning for medical research. I really believe what scientists said is true, and I have three reasons for my points: animal testing is the most reliable method we have so far; it’s not a shame that we use animal on purpose and receive benefits from them; animal testing really works and both human and animal can receive benefits from it.
Many people think that animal testing is not reliable and we should use other alternatives instead of animals. The main reason people come with this idea is because they thought human body was very different from animal’s body. However, according to scientific research animals and humans have many similar organ systems. Not to mention the shape of the pig’s heart is almost the same as human’s; apes and monkey belong to same group as human. That’s why animals are often used for drug test. By using this scientists will be able to know whether the drug is too weak, too strong or too dangerous. Many people also complain that we can use another alternatives instead of animal, while fist of all I think those people should understand the testing progress of a new drug is first tested on animals to make sure it’s safe and effective and the tested on human volunteers. It’s not a perfect process but compare with other alternative options this is the best way to protect people. On the other hand, computer models cost a lot of money and work to just set up and in most cases computer model is not that nicety as people thought. For example, with present day technology it’s impossible to even imagine the events that occur during the process of giving a birth to a new baby. Furthermore, the living body is not just a collection of single parts, scientists claim that testing drug on an isolated organs or computer model won’t show the drug effects the whole body. Obviously, animal testing works much more effective and nicety than any other alternatives we have now. Scientists also argue that without the help from the animal testing the medicine research may stop developing and it will be very difficult to make any significant improvement.
Another thing I can’t agree is that some people think we shouldn’t use animal for our own benefits. Well, I think the first ting these people should understand is that we live in a real world not a feral one. People have been feeding and selling animal for benefits for thousands of years, we are all a part of the natural food chain. According to research 800 million animals have been killed last year and only 2.6 million of them are killed for medical use which means only 0.003% all the animals are killed in the lab. If the people so mean to this 0.003% animals in the lab why they just stop eating another 99.997% animals from the market. More ever, I think there is a difference between the testing animals and other animals, most of the testing animals were feed and grown in the lad and scientists killed them on purpose, it’s to save people not just for fun. And scientists already try to minimize the suffering which animals have taken. So I don’t think is a shame for us to receive benefits from the animals.
The last but not the least, human and animal can both receive benefits for the animal testing. Animal experimentation is a main part of the medical advances. By injecting the virus to animals, scientists can find a cure vaccine, and study the original cause and possible effects of the human viral diseases, such as AIDS, smallpox and polio. For example, there were about 20.000 HIV positive people in Britain. Scientists injected the similar immune-efficiency viruses to the animals and already made 15 anti HIV drugs and one vaccine. So thousands of lives have been saved .Another good example is the success of fighting the smallpox in human history. Smallpox has already disappeared in 1978, because now everyone was vaccinated against smallpox, so the children don’t need to be vaccinated in now days. But don’t forget the vaccine was tested on animals to see if it was safety at the first time. Furthermore, if it not because of the vaccine of polio was tested on monkeys in 1950s, millions of children would lose their lives. Just before the polio vaccine came out, each year 30,000 children caught polio in Europe and North America. From the worldwide the vaccines from the animals testing are saving over 3 million children’s life every year; and a research form the UNICEF showed that more than 100 million one years old children immunized to the most common childhood diseases in 1990.While we received the benefits from the testing animals so did the animals. By test animals in the lab we learned a lot about animals, their living environment, habitats, and disease. Scientists already found a cure for the deadly virus of rabies. Meanwhile, with the help of the knowledge scientists collected from animal testing, we may be able to find a better way to protect and reproduce some endanger species .
Thus animal testing is the most reliable method we have so far; it’s not a shame that we use animal on purpose and receive benefits from them; animal testing really works and both humans and animals can receive benefits from it. Animal testing is still necessary in the world today. Experiment on animals helped us know better of ourselves and animals, I strongly believe that it was and will still be major part of medical advances.
