The importance of psychology education

Its no doubt psychology education is very important. People can learn from
this education how to relieve stress and how to adopt a positive view
towards his life. Moreover psychology education can help reduce the suicide
rate and help keep the stability of the society.
2. Cash and Credit card
I think credit card is much safer than cash. Since once credit card gets
stolen or lost, you can cancel it and retrieve the money spent by others. On
the other hand cash may be more convenient than credit card. Its especially
true in developing country like China, because there are not many malls and
markets take credit card. So I always take both of them with me when I
travel around.
3. Historical people
If possible I would like to meet historical scientist such as Newton,
because he is the first one who made great achievement on Physics. Also I
want to ask him about the famous apple. I want to know is that true Newtons
laws were triggered by that apple which fell on his head.
4. Solve conflict with friend
If I have a conflict with my friend, first of all I will give both of us
sometime to calm down. Then I will put myself in his shoes and think from
his perspective. After that if I still can not agree with him, I will change
a topic and try to forget about the dispute.
5. Pollution
One thing I know is Chinese government try to limit the emission of vehicles
in big cities in order to protect the environment. For example in my
hometown which is a big city as big as Houston in southwest of China,
government require all the taxis and buses use only natural gas. You know
the natural gas is very clean and almost no pollution.
6. Adventure
As a matter of fact, coming to the United State is indeed the biggest
adventure in my life. I had no relatives or friends here. This is a country
that has a totally different culture, language and government. There were
lots of risks and uncertainties involved before I came here. I was not sure
if I could be easily adjusted to everything new here.
7. To be a good teacher
To be a good teacher first of all you should be fair. You should treat all
the students equally. Second you should be understanding and try to have
good communication with them. Third you should possess deep understanding of
the stuff you are teaching and update your knowledge constantly.

8. Passport
In my opinion, passport is the most important thing because it is the basic
document to identify who I am here. Like this test I must show my passport
in order to come in and take test. My passport is especially important when
I travel around. People will ask me to show my ID when I buy air ticket when
I check in a hotel even when I buy a beer.
9. Global village
The world is getting smaller and smaller because of new technology. New
informational technology like internet, long distance phone have made people
know each other much better from all parts of the world. New transportation
technology like cars, airplanes have brought people together from all parts
of the world.
10. The expectation
Before I came here I expected to interact with lots of Americans and make
friends with people from all parts of the world. However once I got here I
found many people around are Chinese. My roommate is from China. Half of my
classmates are from China. I ended up hanging out with Chinese people all
the time.
11. Major
My major is Physics since I was always fascinated by the nature of the
world. And physics can explain how the world is organized and what it is
consisted of. In conclusion physics is the key to know what the truth is.
Since then I was determined to pursue my further study in this field.
The study and research on physics here in states is more advanced than that
in China. This is because physics research need lots of investment. China as
a developing country can not afford such a huge investment now. On the
contrary, the United States as a developed country possesses the resources
and capability to continue the research.
12. Characteristics of a person
I think the most important characteristics of a person is understanding.
This is the key to success of making friends. You need to understand your
friends perspective and put yourself in their shoes. For me I also expect
to be treated the same way by others. Whatever I choose people around me can
understand and support me.
13. Describe Chinese
The best word to describe Chinese is hardworking. For example, since China
is still a developing country there are only a very small percentage of
people who can go to college. So its very competitive. People have to study
and work very hard to pass all those tough exams in order to get higher
education.

14. Internal or external factor

I think internal factors like your ambition and you intelligence are more
important for people to grow up. There is a will there is a way. For example
in United State, lots of people regardless of your family background, as
long as you work hard, you will achieve your goal eventually.
15. Biggest social problem
In China the biggest social problem is increasing population. China so far
has been the most populous country in the world. To feed the 1.3 billion
people is one of the greatest challenges to the current government.
16. Pessimistic
I am always very optimistic. I am always look at the bright side of the
things I encountered. For example if I make a mistake in my research, it
will only push me to do it again in a right way.
17. Where to live
I love to live in countryside like College Station because of fresh air,
friendly people and not much traffic.
18. Passive
I am the kind of person who always takes the initiative. I always come up
with some good ideas and get a group of people to help me carry it out. For
example I am currently the vice president of Chinese students and scholars
association. I often take the initiative to organize some events or create
some opportunities for Chinese people to mingle with each other.
19. Leader
I would like to be the leader. For example in our research lab, the leader
can control everything especially the direction of research.
20. Status
In the old days, Chinese women were not allowed to work. Nowadays Chinese
women are entitled to the same set of rights as men are. Most of them get
education and go to work. More and more women start working for the
government. In short the status of Chinese women has been improved a great
deal since the founding of the country.
21. Democracy
Contrary to what most American thought, China actually advocates democracy
and its written into Chinese constitution. However the difference lies in
the different definition of democracy and the priority between democracy and
social stability. Chinese government provides freedom and encourages

democracy based on the precondition that stability should be secured first.

That led to what happened in 1989.
22. Friendship
Friendship is very important in everyones life. True friends are always
best place for advice, encouragement and help. For example sine I got to the
United States, I have received great help from my friends. Without them life
here would be boring and difficult.
23. Weather
The temperature will influence what you wear. Put on a coat when the
temperature is low. T-shirt go with hot weather. Weather also influence the
color I chose. In summer I wear clothes with light color such as white and
yellow which make me feel cool. However in winter I often put on clothes
with dark color.
24. Dream
Dreams are often a response to our daily thoughts and activities. They are
often a reflection of what happens in the day time. So there is an old
saying: what doing, what dreaming. Sometimes dreams come first. People
dreamed about flying in the sky, walking on the moon, diving in the deep
ocean. People dream first, then try their best to make it come true.

1. How to cook an omelet?

2. How to make tea?
3. Art or science, which one do you think is more important to a country?
4. What is justice?
5. (Cartoon) A group of fat people were doing rhythmic gymnastics, probably intending
to lose their weight. The funny thing is when an ice cream truck (wagon?!) was passing
by, all what they could think were the ice cream.
6. (Cartoon - Using a radio) turn on/off the switch, tune to some channel, someone
complained it's disturbing, then adjusted the volume...
7. (Cartoon - Developmental stages of a child) When a child was born, he could only lie
on the bed. When he is growing up, he will learn to turn the body over, to sit with
support, to sit without support, to crawl on the ground, and finally learn how to stand and
walk.
8. (Cartoon - not remembered very well) A boy dropped his coins to a gutter. His parent
seemed to be very angry.
9. You'll being traveling for one month. If you can bring only one object with you, what is
that? Explain why?
[Cartoon]
A stork(crane) was looking for food for her child. She found a worm.
However, the worm was too small to satisfy the little stork(crane).

Being worried about the food, she continued to search and found a big fruit. At the
moment, she had a good idea. Let the worm eat the fruit first. After the worm drilled
through the fruit and seemed to have eaten a lot, the worm become really fat and big.
Then the stork (crane) brought the worm back to her nest delightedly.
[How do you prepare for a dinner?]
Typically we do the following steps. First, rinse the rice and
cook it with an Electric Rice Cooker. Then we need to slice vegs,
meats and fish using a cutting board and knives and blend
meats and spices in a mixing bowl before cooking. Next, turn on the
stove and heat the frying pan. Pour oil into the pan and wait till it
is hot. Then place the garlic, green onion or onion in the pan and wait
till the smell disperses. Now we can place the materials in the pan and
stir. Pour in some water when needed. Until cooked to desired doneness,
season with salt and other spices. Then we can serve onto a plate.
1. My favorite career is to be a mathematical professor in a university. I like mathematics
from when I was in primary school. I would like to do research and investigate it all
along. And a prosition in a university would provide me the chance to gain mathematical
theory and to solve real problems with mathematical tools. So it is my favorite career.
2. I would like to bring my passport with me. Because it is the identification in the first
place for me to show who I am. It would be especially significant in travel. I would need
the passport to buy airline ticket, to check in at a hotel, and so on. So I would like to
bring it.
3. I had many kinds of activities, such as running, swimming, hiking, and so on. The one
I liked best was to go to the zoo, even for now. I like animals and since I was living in the
city, it wouldn't be many chances for me to see the animals in wild place. So the activity
that I enjoy most for my childhood and for now is to watch the animals in the zoo.
4. The world is getting smaller and smaller because of the new technology. People could
contact each other much more easily than before through internet and cell phone. People
could also get reference much more conveniently than before. For example, we could
find the papers online instead of going to the library. And the new technology also makes
people know each other better all over the world.
5. My major is mathematics, and especially applied math. I like mathematics because I
met a wonderful math teacher in primary school. And the more I learn and investigate it,
the more I like it. And I would both gain mathematical theory and solve real problems
with mathematical tools. I would like to pursue further study in math.
US always leads the directions of investigation in these fields. And there are also many
famous professors and eager students here.

Mathematics is the fundamental basis of science. Every branch of science and technology
would need mathematics, for example, physics, chemistry, and engineering. And applied
math would connect the pure theory in math and the real problems with some kind of
tools. So it would be crucially important.
6. The biggest social problem in China is the increasing population. China has more than
1 bilion people so far. The population would give rise to many other kinds of social
problem, such as food, education, and so on. To feed so many people is one of the critical
challenges for the government.
7. I think they are both important. The internal factors like the ambition, the intelligence,
the hard working are the preparation for people to grow up. And the external factors like
challenges are the chances to make people sucess. Just like the word, "Chance favors the
prepared mind".
8. I would like to live in countryside just like college station. Because I like less tension,
as well as the fresh air and friendly people.
9. I think the word is diligence. Chinese students are the students in the world who spend
longest time in study. Many Chinese scientists made grand contribution through their
industrious investigation. And Chinese people are making the great economic
development from 1980's with their hard working.
10. I like listening to music. When I feel tired, music helps me to relax. When busying
working on my homework, I put some pop music as background which makes me feel
comfortable. I also like to listen to classical music to improve myself.
11. I think both of them are important. Science and technology will improve the condition
for people to live and make people more comfortable, such as internet, microwave and so
on. Arts are significant since people would improve themselves and preserve the culture
with arts.
12. There are many aspects of justice. The treatment of people should be justice. For
example, the allocation of things, wealth, power and so on, should be done in a proper
way between different people. And also when a crime occurs, the punishment should be
justly imposed and considered.
13. Love and hate are both the human emotions and experiences. Love contains a wealth
of different feelings, from the passionate desire to romantic love. Love acts as a major
facilitator of interpersonal relationships. Hate describes immense feelings of dislike
toward a person or a thing, as well as prejudice against a class of people.
14. I think the person Xiaoping Deng. He is a famous politician in China. And it was he
who first determined that China should put the economic construction in the first place.
The ecnomic development of China that have been happening these years should owe
most to him.

15. I think is Ms Huo, a wonderful teather in math in primary. She was very good at math
teaching and made math interesting for me. It was she who opened the door and led me to
the kingdom of mathematics.
16. The leader can control things and owns lots of resources. He will determine how to do
things and who should do them. The follower could only do things that give to him, even
he do not like it. The leader takes more responsibility than the follower.
17. Both of them are the attitudes towards things that have to be done. People may be
passive when meet things that they do not like or are not familiar with. Be active will
make people feel more comfortable and do things quickly and effectively.
18. Wisdom is having gained knowledge, experience, and intuitive understanding, along
with a capacity to apply these qualities well. Intelligence describes a property of the mind
that contains many abilities, such as the capacities to reason, to plan, to solve problems,
to use language, and to learn.
