Many scientists have studied about whether prodigies are made or are inborn. But they can not yet explain that question.
Prodigies faster learn about thing than do ordinary people. For example, Son learn how to play chess game by merely careful observation and he became Vietnam’s youngest champion.
Scientists have long suspected and believed that prodigies are affected by cultural and biological factors and they are different from common people. Surely, prodigies have excelled abilities in many respects. Ordinary children can not do and focus on something in which children have interested. Prodigies do not so. They can spend much time on fields interested. Also researcher have studies about prodigies’’ brains by fMRI. Some startling factors are found. Compared with common child, prodigies have brains with six to seven times more metabolic activity in the right side of their brains and heightened activity in the frontal lobes. Average children never can utility this part of brain. But prodigies are different. They freely can do. Scientist believe that prodigies can muster the mental resources necessary to solve problems and learn and protect distractions and switch every efficiently between the brain’s left and right.
Many experts have argued that prodigies are nature and nurture. However, many strongly agree that prodigies are half born and made. This means that parents are important role raising prodigies.

The End of Suburbia
Before Second World War II, the economic of U.S.A was sharply increasing.
This wealth based on growing industry had invested in suburbia after Second World War II. Many apartments are built in suburbia, causing serious problems such as air pollution. During fifty years, more and more people had moved to suburbia because living suburbia has promised many advantages such as affordability, family life and so on. Consequently, all things, which are necessary for people who live in suburbia, should follow such as school and shopping center.
This suburbia has become American Dream. The American Dream of suburbia life has no future because oil problem. People in the world have used oil to develop in many fields. Building houses in suburbia should be required a high sum of oil.
Many people should buy their own cars to go to work, shopping center and school. Increasing cars caused the government to construct highways. These highways, in turn, increased the number of cars. The government planed to build public transportations such as subway and buses to protect increasing cars by policy and various public facilities regarding gas, electronic, water should be constructed to maintain people’ life in suburbia. Constructing power plants were required to operate public facilities and transportations. However these brought new problems. Much energy is required and it became more and more expensive.
Now, oil produces and consumes at peak but it will decrease more and more. Fossil fuel will be exhausted and this problem returns to people in suburbia. Consequently, American dream will be broken because of fossil fuels.
Many scientists and policy makers have argued and try to solve this problem about fossil fuels. They suggest some solutions such as hydrogen and without cars etc. However, above mentioned are not solutions because of disadvantages. There were disadvantages to use hydrogen. It is difficult to transport and there are other alternative energies such as water – power generation, natural gas, solar energy and then nuclear energy.
In the future, the life in suburbia will change into positive or negative phenomenon by dealing with fossil fuels and adopting new alternative energies.

1. What are some of the consequences of an aging population? In other words, what factors must be taken into consideration as the elderly begin to make up a larger segment of a country’s population than ever before? What needs will have to be must?
As the elderly people are increasing more and more, many problems will happen in our society. For example, there will be problems regarding tax, welfare facilities, jobs, and public transportation and so on. The government need have to take measures to meet the situation in advance. Although the goverment provide Many jobs for the elderly people this might cause them to tax reveneue to the government. The young people, in tern, may not be burden and tax from the elderly people might establish various welfare facilities and policy for elderly people.
2. In your group, discuss the factors that might shorten a person’s life expectancy
stress, polluted air, oily food, sleep not enough, smoking, excessive drinking
3. Work with two or three other students. In your group, make a list of the steps you can take to increase your life expectancy.
regular life, exercise three time a week, enough drinking and sleeping, marinating cleanliness
4. Refer to “World lifespan highs and Lows’ chart on page 92. Choose a country form the chart.
Write a composition about the life expectancy in this country. Include what you think may be reasons for this country’s high or life expectancy.
Aisa - I think the gap of life expectancy between two nations might occur because of financial power, food and residence and so on. Japanese might more enjoy and have them than do Afghanistan people. Japanese
5. Write in your journal. How long would you like to live? Explain your reason?
I would like to live until 22 century. Because many people say all things related to economic, cultures, popular music, fashion, technology, science etc.. change into new. Just I want to see and enjoy new things

my views regarding computer use
While before ten years ago a few students can control computers and do not know the terms of computer, currently almost all students are familiar with the terms of computer. Although few students have objected against using computers in class because of disadvantages such as harmful website, physical activities reduced and the lack of the social skills, I think that using computer provide students with many advantages; not only can students find various knowledge about subjects but also students can share information.
Firstly, computers are one of the innovational inventions, which have changed people’ life and intellectual level. Using computers has also changed them and people can aquire various knowledges. Generally students do not know information except knowledge you have studied or interested. However, these days, schools require students to learn various information related to course in modern society. Students can not do so because they do not learn about

These days, almost all houses have personal computers. As personal computers become more popular as a medium for home entertainment, the demand for computers will continue to rise. Many people can use computers, which are located in private and public places. Therefore, children can have access to personal computers. This brings up serious issues. While some people insist that Children must be able to control personal computers, I think computers might be treated by children, after thinking power completed. That is why using computers in early age might be able to cause children to not only get diseases such as eyestrain and obesity but also stand in isolation.
Firstly and most importantly using computers gives children various diseases. In other world, Children using computer get diseases. Generally, children using computers might spend less time on physical activities. For example, one of my cousins always plays game in a house and he never does exercise. Consequently He is obeser than his friends and wear glasses. In addition, He often goes to hospital to catch a cold. If he tries to active with someone he will protect his body against diseases and be good in shape.
Secondly, children using computer stand alone. In other world, they can not improve their social skills. Generally, children could not control themselves. Therefore, they are easily addicted to games and spend much time alone. According to the survey, most of children using computers can not get along with other friends and they do not have careful concern.
All things considered, Children could be received harmful affects through using computer. It is no doubt that Children in early age prohibit using computers. After children have thinking power, using computers should be permitted

1. There are two sorts of health concerns. One is physical concern . The other is mental health concern. Physical concern is that if children spend much time on using computers, they can not afford physical activities such as football game. Spending much time on using computers might causes children to get diseases. Because the strength of children’s body go down, they can not raise immunity.
Also, it can be create or lost several imaginations. Few children could not distinguish between reality and imagination. Therefore, they might might become deluded and committed a crime.
2. This is surprising event that 3-year-child can type his or her name on the keyboard to enter game. But parents think that it is possible for child to enter other harmful website. Also parents think other harmful facts related to son or daughter. Those facts are physical activity reduced and social skills deteriorated and so no.
3. It is very difficult for teacher to control computers classes. Because computers classes room is larger than general classes. Students in larger room could not focus on schoolwork. They also might do activities such as wet surfing, playing game, showing anther program not related to schoolwork. There it is import for schools to have well-trained teacher in special fields. The research of E.T.S. show using computers is effective in math. It means all fields in not necessary to use computers in classes. Schools should find useful subjects to in order to use computers in classes

Beyond Rivalry
Beyond Rivalry by written Elizabeth Stark argues about siblings between relationships.
There are two kinds of social connections. One is younger adult siblings including careers, marriage and families. The other is older adult sibling, which is consists of retirement, empty net and parents and spouse gone. People may be involved in group and drift from their sisters and brothers for reason of social connections.
However, they might return back to their sisters and brothers in later life. Among many reasons, the most important reason is critical events in life. Critical events can bring sibling together and deepen existing rift especially parental sickness or death.
Professionals have surveyed about sibling and found several results about 20% people either hostile or indifferent to their siblings because of inheritance dispute and animosity. Although there was lingering rivalry it was strongly weak to break off the relationship because just a few people had totally broken with their sibling. Another research shows closeness increases and rivalry diminish as coming of age. Only 4% people did not get along with brothers and sisters. Final research is that 53% people who contact their sister and brothers increased in late adulthood. That’s because there were four reasons; firstly they had more time before with family because career obligations reduced, secondly anxiety about sibling’s health, thirdly other source of contact and support diminished and finally need link to the past.
Apparent are some of facts to maintain connection, which are proximity and positive feeling. If sisters and brothers live near, they could easily meet each other. However, the real cause is that the sibling seems to evoke positive emotion based on the images or feeling related to early age. But they can not with sibling because safety net, same age and latent rivalry is consider.
There is a proverb in Korea that blood is darker that water. It means that sister and brothers’ relationship can easily break off. Although they quarrel and complete each other during a lifetime, they turn back to their sister and brothers to associate each other.
