In the 20th century, females led very different lives compared to their counterparts. They were forced to sacrifice their freedom and had less right than men. There are no exceptions for female teachers. They had such a hard life because there were so many rules for them. There was a set of golden rules that they had to abide by or risk instant dismissal. In the 21st century it probably seems unbelievable that female teachers had to follow such hard rules while teaching.RESPONSE TIME00:00:45

Charles John Dickens was born in Portsmouth, England in 1812. His first novel, The Pickwick Papers, was very popular, and was soon followed by Oliver Twist and several later novels. As he grew older, he worked harder, and the novels of his later years are considered to be his finest works such as David Copperfield, Little Dorrit, A Tale of Two Cities and Great Expectations. He is called the greatest English novelist, and his characters have become so real to us that they are now part of our culture. Who doesnt know about Scrooge the Miser or Oliver Twist the orphan?RESPONSE TIME00:00:45

In Korea, were lucky to have four very distinct seasons. Some countries have very few changes throughout the year. My favorite would be a toss-up between spring and fall, since both of them have milder weather than winter or summer. If I had to choose just one, I would have to choose spring. Thats because of the white cherry blossoms that we can see at the beginning of spring. It wouldnt be spring without new flowers and plants blossoming everywhere. Also, to me, air in spring smells clean and fresh, especially after it rains.RESPONSE TIME00:00:45


One of the most memorable places Ive been to for vacation is Thailand. Thailand is a tropical country with incredible beaches. Since tourism in Thailand is well-developed, there are various kinds of accommodations there. You can choose from resorts, hotels, bungalows, and guesthouses. Thailand is a great place for everybody: families, couples, or single people. You can do activities such as scuba diving and snorkeling. You can also just relax on the beach and perhaps read a book. Overall, the people are very kind and welcoming. I really enjoyed my trip to Thailand. I would strongly recommend Thailand to others.RESPONSE TIME00:00:45

From: Ed Harrison

Subject: GPS Meeting

Thank you for your presentation at the meeting on Thursday. Your handouts were easy to understand and very informative. However, I am concerned about the results of your research. While your survey did a good job of detailing Delta GPS tracking abilities in the US and Canada, it doesnt seem to have any tests for drives across the U.S/Canadian/Mexican borders. As you know, a lot of our routes are international, so its necessary to know if Delta GPS units operate across international borders. You need to discuss it with your staff and well talk about it at the manager meeting again. And Im attaching the survey results that were presented by Mr. Spenser, which show the status of installation in other companies.
