Population Problem in China

1. My grandparents have 5 children. There was no limit at that time. However my parents only have one child---me. Because of one-child policy, they only can have one or you have to pay a lot of money to have one more baby. That’s why I don’t have sister or brother. In my opinion, I only want at most three children. Two children is the best situation because it’s not too busy taking care of them.
2. The population in my country is almost 1.3 billion. The problem is the more people we have, the more pollution we have. And also, we don’t have enough space to live and to own our house. The traffic is so heavy that we have to waste too much extra time to go to school or go to work.
3. Of course. There has been a significant shift in my country from rural areas to urban areas. As I said, there is no more space for more people to live. The energy is another problem that we use a lot of energy. And we do waste much energy.

Animal Testing

I have seen these two videos. They are showing us two different sides to the animal testing issue.
One video, which named Pro Animal Testing, supports animal testing to help people. Some people say that animal testing is good for human to find solution to disease. Nowadays, more and more people died from AIDS, HIV or H1NI. Animal testing can help people to find out how to treat these diseases.
The other one, which named Stop Animal Testing Now, is against animal testing. Obviously, this video suggests people stop animal testing. We should protect all species of animals from dying out. Ecological balance is so important to the environment. There are a lot of consequences if we destroy the diversity of animal.
In my opinion, I think we should protect animal and find another solution to treat disease. Even though saving people lives is very important, we cannot kill animals to save people. We have to find a win-win solution in protecting animals and saving people lives at a same time.

Research Paper

We started our research paper. Its a really big work. i notice that i have to start working on it right now. At the beginning, it takes a lot of time to read and collect the information from books and internet. Also, i need to take notes of what i read. In order to avoiding plagiarism, i have to take key words from the artical. so that i couldnt copy word by word when im writing. Now i really strict with plagiarism.....I dont wanna do it again....
