PS5



Did you wait for so long about this product?

I am 53.

The PS1,2 was my crazy gamer generation.

Actually, I was crazy about all kind electronic game consoles.

Xbox, PC…as well.

At the time, I got so many games to play.

I was worry before I die, I can’t finish 10% of my games collection.

But after 40 something I suddenly loss the interest of TV games.

So, I know nothing about PS3,4.

Now, this PS5 suddenly become a popular topic around me.

To be honest I think price is cheap.

I may buy one, even I am not a game fan anymore.

Wants to beat me in games like street fighter?

Los Dinosaurios en Nuestra Sociedad

Los dinosaurios son criaturas perdidas en el pasado, ¿o ellos son? Este es la historia en muchos libros por todo el mundo. Por ejemplo, unos de mis libros favoritos es el libro «Jurassic Park». En la historia, la gente construye un parque que es una mezcla de un parque de diversiones y un zoológico. Sino que ellos lo llenan con animales regulares, lo llenan con dinosaurios que les crearon desde material genética que eran tomado de la piedra. La punta de la historía es que la vida encontrará una manera a superar nada obstáculo en su camino. Y, de alguna manera, por nuestra fascinación con los dinosaurios, les mantenemos vivos. Pienso que es muy mágica que, por nuestra imaginación, podemos crearlos universos enteros!

Human beings

What is a human being? Do human beings have a main feature? If that is the case that they have, what is this distinctive characteristic? The Greece philosopher Aristotle thinks a human is an animal that speaks. The ability of speaking is something that sets human beings apart from other creatures. By speaking Aristotle means the capability of thinking. Humans are the only creatures who can use their brains to this extent. Ancient philosophers thought that animals act only according to their instincts, not by thinking. This belief still, in the modern age, is common among people and scientists, but some researches have shown that this habitual belief is not necessarily true.
Studies conducted on dolphins have led to this theory that the way dolphins communicate with each other is more complicated than what seemed to be at first. Humans are able to think through language. Language shapes and restricts their thoughts, determines the horizon they can see. Lack or richness of vocabulary within a domain can result in imagining different phenomena. By the language, they can give meaning to their feeling experiences. They can send messages to their fellow peers through words. The common belief about animal language has been that it is composed of a meaningless series of sounds, not representing any signals.
As a result, if the future studies give rise to more sound evidence and prove this theory, then, we can see the end of this old widespread belief which has endured during several millennia.

My village

In the early eighties, I studied in Fuyang city. Every time I go back to my village during the summer vacation or winter break, I always feel sad because the village hasn’t even changed a little since I left it. In the following decade when I got a job, it was still in its old shape that I remembered at my young age. Maybe in the 2010’s, our village started to change and it seemed very quick. Each family built a new house with three or four floors and the roads were all renewed to cement. Not to mention tap water, telephones, networks and cars. Back in the old days, what we lived in was just a thatched cottage, mud road, no electricity, wherever we went we just took a walk and we didn’t even have a bike. Every time I think of those days when we didn’t even have enough food to eat, I often feel sorrow. However, all of those days have passed and now, my old neighbors all have better living conditions. But if the plans for the countryside could be more reasonable, the public facilities are perfect. It would be a smart choice to live in the countryside. In a word, the countryside has developed really fast in recent years. I am very glad to see these.

policies could couple with religious.

The admirable beauty of religion is not a cultural deposit, old and intricate historical book, and venerable stories, for atheisms and politicians. It has powerful magic to lead the people, reshape societies, vacuums court systems, rewrite histories that can bolt on government, and be used as a splurge on astute hand. The existence of religion could empower leaders to use a whip to pressure people in a righteous way and a cause to wage a war. Look back at the histories, the politics invisible tie to religion tightly. Gradually, it became one of the tools to extend the realm and enforce power. The best explanation to show reality about religious power is that President Trump visited the Vatican city’s pope for rebuilding a benign diplomacy relationship, even if the pope disagrees with President Trump’s policy about immigrants in public. But after that hoping President Trump took a lesson when religious powers are stronger enough to couple with society and control the wind, no president would jeopardize with reckless posturing to handle religious issues.

Descrizione di una foto

Vediamo una foto di una cartolina che si può comprare dappertutto.

Al centro attraverso l’intera foto si vede una bottiglia di vetro trasparente. È ficcata con il suo fondo nella sabbia di una spiaggia soleggiata. Sulla sfondo vediamo la superficie sfocata del mare blu.
Un tappo è incastrato nella bottiglia e dentro si trova un rotolino di carta. Il vetro è pulita e punti luminosi brillano sulla bottiglia che getta un’ombra sulla sabbia. Il blu del mare occupa i due terzi di sopra della foto, la sabbia il terzo al margine sul bordo inferiore.

Ci si potrebbe chiedere chi ha messo la bottiglia lì oppure ciò che è scritto sulla carta.

Deutsch Lernen

Seit den korona-krise, habe ich mich entschieden Deutsch wieder zu lernen. In 2013, hatte ich in Berlin für 3 Monat ein Praktikum gemacht. Damals, hatte ich mit Duolingo Deutsch gelernt, dieser zeit, habe ich meine 'Methode?' veändert. Jeden Tag, lese ich etwas auf Deutsch, ich habe Bücher mit kürze Geschichten gelesen und höre 'easy German' Podcasts wenn ich zum Arbeit fahren. Ich glaube ich muss mehr schreiben und sprechen weil 'they are my weaknesses'. Nächstes Jahr, hoffe ich einen Deutsch-Prüfung sitzen.

Oktoberfest

Estamos em meados de setembro, o que significa os habitantes de Munique que a (ou o?) Oktoberfest está chegando. Diferente de que o nome que poderia sugerir, a Oktoberfest começa em setembro e termina em outubro.

Este ano, no entanto, não há Oktoberfest. Ela foi cancelada há alguns meses já, o que faz de 2020 o primeiro ano sem essa festa desde a Segunda Guerra Mundial. É uma grande perda para a economia da cidade, pois as vendas extras trazidas diretamente pela Oktoberfest e pelos gastos indireitos dos turistas da Oktoberfest atingiram um bilhão de euros nos últimos anos. É claro que todas as pessoas que gostam de festas também vão sentir falta dela. O que é ainda pior, a prefeitura proibiu o consumo de álcool em algumas praças públicas devido ao número crescente de infecções de Covid e reclamações dos residentes. Poucos meses atraz, proibir o consumo de álcool na Baviera era tão impensável quanto proibir o consumo de hambúrgueres no McDonald's.

A tristeza de uns é a alegria de outros. Uma das minhas amigas mora não longe do epicentro da Oktoberfest. Ela está feliz por este ano, não precisa tomar cuidado de que chamamos de cadáveres de cerveja e pizzas de vômito no caminho à oficina.

Zuerst Muttersprache oder Zielsprache?

Glaubt ihr, dass es besser ist, einen Journaleintrag auf deiner Muttersprache (dann in deiner Zielsprache übersetzen), oder auf deine Zeilsprache zunächst schreiben? Ich glaube, die beiden haben Vorteile.

Wenn man auf seiner Muttersprache zuerst schreibt, es ermöglicht ihn, freier zu denken. Wann man es übersetzt, es aufdeckt seine Lücken im Wortschatz und Wissen auf der Zielsprache. Mit anderen Worten, es zeigt man was man zu lernen brauchst, und es erweitert seinen Wortschatz.

Schreiben auf seiner Zielsprache zuerst hilft man auf seiner Zielsprache zu denken. Ein Nachteil ist es, dass man muss ändern, was man sagt, um in seiner grenzte Wortschatz hineinzupassen.

RBG

今日は、Ruth Bader Ginsburg が亡くなりました。彼女のあだ名はRBGでした。アメリカの最高裁の会員でした。賢くて、正義の味方でした。とても悲しいです。結果は政治的な喧嘩が始まります。2016年で、リパブリカン政党が新しい最高裁の任命を潰しました。2016の大統領の選挙が近かったですので、潰すの理由は違う政党の大統領の可能性でした。今はほとんど同じ事情です。でも、あの時代の大統領はデモクラットでした。今はリパブリカンです。リパブリカン政党はあの時から気が変わるのつもりがあると思います。不正直な連中です。来る日、この戦いは激しいになりそうです。

Algo que dudo

He oído que los árboles pueden sentir dolor. No estoy convencido de que sea verdad porque en animales dolor es un mecanismo de defensa. Pero los árboles no pueden escapar cosas que causan dolor y asi, no es sensible que se sienten dolor.

Es posible que la cuarentena frene el cambio climático. No estoy seguro porque aunque hay menos tráfico en las calles y menos vuelos, muchas casas están usando más electricidad todo el dia para usar el internet y Netflix.

Le tourisme a-t-il un impact négatif sur l’environnement ?

Je croi que actuellement le tourisme crée un impact négatif sur l’environnement. Premièrement, beaucoup de personne que visité des endroit naturelle ou monument très touristique ne respecte pas le même endroit. Par exemple, ils tomber poubelle en l'endroit ou ils marché sur place interdit seulement pour faire un photo. Deuxièmement, beaucoup de fois le transport pour aller a un endroit naturelle c’est très contaminant pour l'environnement. Par exemple, en la región de Baja California dans Mexique, beaucoup de battou c’est dangereux pour les baleines parce qu'il émis beaucoup de bruit. Finalement, je crois que c’est important que le tourist devenir en plus conscience de l'environnement et étudier un peu de l’endroit avant la visit pour préserver l'environnement de la place qu’il visite.

Warum war ich deprimiert, als ich an Japan angekommen bin

Warum war ich deprimiert, als ich an Japan angekommen bin.

Ich war sehr deprimiert, nicht sobald ich an Japan angekommen bin, das heißt, nicht als ich am Flughafen angekommen bin, sondern einige Tage später. Es war ein sehr großer Traum, nach Japan zu fliegen und dort zu leben. Ich konnte mir gar nicht vorstellen, dass ich so traurig dort wäre.

Bevor ich nach Japan geflogen bin, dachte ich, dass ich ein bisschen Japanisch sprechen konnte. Ich habe allmählich herausgefunden, dass es nicht wahr war. Ich konnte nicht die Anleitung verstehen, die die Angestellte von der Uni uns gesagt haben. Es schien aber, dass die andere Studenten, Ausländer wie ich, alles verstehen konnten.

Vielleicht war ich nicht der Einzige, die Schwierigkeiten hatte. Das ist aber egal, weil ich angefangen habe, mich sehr traurig zu fühlen. Am schlechtesten war es, dass ich sogar die anderen Ausländer-Studenten nicht verstehen konnte, wenn sie auf Japanisch sprachen.

Ich habe aber nicht einmal gedacht, dass ich den Wert nicht hatte, um an diesem Programm teilzunehmen. Oder habe ich? Ich kann mich nicht so gut daran erinnern. Vielleicht habe ich gedacht, dass ich darauf nicht vorbereitet war? Das kann ich auch nicht sagen. Ich bin aber sehr traurig und deprimiert geworden. Wenn ich aber es nicht erlebt hätte, würde ich nie wissen, dass ich so weit vom Beherrschen dieser Sprache war.

Nachdem ich mit den anderen Studenten geredet habe, habe ich verstanden, warum es einen großen Unterschied zwischen uns gab, was die Fähigkeit mit der Sprache betrifft. Es stellt sich heraus, dass Viele von ihnen (wenn nicht alle) eine sehr verschiedene Erfahrung gemacht hatten. An der Uni hatten sie viele Facher, die mit Japanischen zu tun hatten: japanische Grammatik, japanische Zeichen, Gespräch auf Japanisch, usw.

In vielen Ländern lernten die Studenten japanisch an der Uni viele Stunden pro Woche. In meinem Fall war es nicht so. Mein Kurs heißt nicht "Japanologie", sondern "Portugiesisch und Japanisch". Das heißt, ich musste lernen auch Portugiesisch, Latein, Griechisch (nicht das Modern), portugiesische Literatur, japanische Literatur, brasilianische Literatur, Theorie der Literatur, Vergleichene Literatur, usw.

Kurz gesagt war die japanische Sprache nur ein Teil des Studiums, anders als das, was in anderen Ländern passierte. Deshalb gab es solch einen so großen Unterschied. Die andere Studenten hatten viel mehr Kontakt mit Japanischen als ich. Ich sage hier nicht, dass ich kein Interesse an Literatur, Latein, usw habe. Ich wusste aber nicht, dass ich solche Facher auch lernen musste. Ich habe diesen Kurs ausgewählt, weil ich Japanisch weiterlernen wollte. Ich sage "weiterlernen", weil ich schon angefangen hatte, Japanisch zu lernen, als ich mich an der Uni beteiligt habe.

Dieser Text ist aber zu lang geworden. Ich schreibe mehr morgen, haha.

Un conductor (demasiado) relajado

¡Esta tarde vi que el conductor del coche delante de mi tenía ambas pies fuera de la ventana! Tenía las piernas cruzadas, como si estuviera relajando en la playa. No lo pude creer. Intenté acercarme y vi que era cierto.

Si alguien hubiera parado inesperadamente, creo que el conductor habría chocado (me imagino que mudar las piernas de la ventana al freno rápidamente requiere mucha flexibilidad y reflejos increíbles). Nunca había visto a nadie manejar así y me preguntaba cómo podía sentirse tan seguro manejando de una manera tan peligroso. De todas formas, fue una situación muy interesante.

P.D. ¿Alguien me puede avisar dónde colocar el signo de apertura de exclamación en la primera frase? Cómo la frase es un poco larga, me parece raro colocar el signo (¡) al principio.

the minimum legal age for driving cars or riding motorbikes

Some people think that the best way to increase road safety is to increase the minimum legal age for driving cars or riding motorbikes. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
I can understand why increasing the minimum legal age for driving can reduce driving accidents and driving offenses and increase rode safety because of some reasons, but I do not think among possible solutions this is the best. I think that since the youth are energetic, some of them see driving faster than a limit speed a means of relieving their stress and energy. They are looking for exciting activities much more than older people. In addition, Younger people are usually less mature and less responsible for their manners. Due to the lack of experience, young individuals do not have good enough awareness of the importance of following the laws, and that is why young individuals tend more to break the rules in comparison to older people.
However, authorities can come up with other solutions to the issue of road safety. For instance, heavier fines and stricter punishments can be enacted for driving offenders. Governments should spend public money on educating individuals on the necessity of following the rules and developing a high driving culture. They can encourage people to commute by public transport rather than private vehicles.
In conclusion, although increasing the minimum legal age is useful in reducing the driving offenses but other solutions are more effective in ensuring road safety.

historical places

Many museums and historical sites are mainly visited by tourists but not local people. Why is this the case and what can be done to attract more local people to visit these places?
There are a number of factors that can help to explain why these places lose their primary appeal to locals. Perhaps the primary reason is that not only historical sites but anything gradually loses their primary attraction for humans. These places are much more exposed to local inhabitants so that it is natural that locals do not attract to them the same as foreign visitors. The more similarity between the cultural background of a historical place and a visitor the less attractive that place to the visitor.
Another reason might be that authorities often do not pay enough attention to conserve the historical places. Due to this reason, the conditions of these historical sites degrade over time. However, there are solutions that can be considered to resolve the issue. To gain back residents’ interest, the authorities can rearrange and redecorate these tourist attractions to make them more absorbing to the visitors. To achieve this, more public money should be spent on this problem. The authorities can continue campaigning aiming at increasing the awareness public of these attractions. In summary, enough good measures can be taken in attracting the local inhabitants.

animal rights

Some people say that too much attention and too many resources are given in the
protection of wild animals and birds. Do you agree or disagree about this opinion?
It seems to me that humans have committed a considerable number of cruel things to other creatures for a long time. I believe that all the creatures that feel pain should be equal in basic rights. I assume arguments that people have used to justify the equality in human rights can be applied to animals. One of these arguments is that humans have many features in common, hence the equality in primary rights. If this argument is valid, it will works for the proof of animal rights as well. Not only humans and animals share many characteristics with each other but also with plants and even solids. According to another reason, the capability of thinking and reasoning is what deserves a creature to have rights. This kind of argument leads individuals to fascistic governments. As a consequence, disable humans will be stripped of any rights they naturally have, and practically it gives others license to commit any immoral acts to these kinds of individuals. These sorts of acts are not tolerable and acceptable in modern societies. Thus, human beings have been depriving animals of their most basic natural rights such as the right to survive. Therefore, I think humans have not paid enough attention to the life and rights of other creatures.

traveling to remote areas

It is now possible for scientists and tourists to travel to remote natural environments, such as the South Pole. Do the advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?
First of all, we should ask ourselves whether traveling to isolated wild areas is beneficial to whom? To humans or to the natural environment and its residents? Most likely it will adversely affect numerous plant and animal species. Modern human beings have caused many irreversible damages to the earth’s ecosystem and I do not believe this case would be an exception. Industrial societies have an insatiable desire for capital. The first priority of these kinds of societies is producing and selling goods as much as possible to earn profits.
To humans, this action has benefits to some extent. On the one hand, adventuring in untouched areas brings some benefits to individuals in terms of both science and recreation. Scientists can make use of undiscovered secrets in the wilderness to develop their researches. Travelers use this opportunity to relieve some stresses and enjoy themselves. On the other hand, the wilderness is full of unseen dangers. For instance, someone who wants to travel to the Amazon jungle might find oneself in danger of various poison insects and wild animals.
In conclusion, I guess that the detrimental consequences of traveling to these distant areas far outweigh the positive ones.

noisemaking

Some people think that there should be some strict controls about noise. Others think that they could just make as much noise as they want. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
I think one of the main reasons for this disagreement is the problem in determining and defining the borders of the private and the public. The people who agree with noisemaking without any restriction would argue that producing noise is a private matter and therefore a personal problem. In fact, they don’t recognize the well-known distinction between the private and public issues and believe it is just a formal classification and doesn’t stem from nature. They justify themselves by this egoistical view that in the case of the conflict between private and public interests, people should first prioritize their own needs. However, this point of view leads to a chaotic society, which prefers instinct to order and reason. While modern societies assign a high positive value to toleration and freedom, they impose a restriction on these values. Individuals are free to do everything until their actions do not harm others. According to this opinion, noisemakers endanger people’s health and affect their quality of life. Due to this reason, generating noise must be put under control.
In my view, there is an unavoidable, fateful, and tragic conflict between civilization demands and biological needs that allow human beings to lead a fulfilling life. The problem in question is one of these conflicts. Whatever choice we make leads to unavoidable suffering. However, what we can do is to lower these sufferings and choose a path that ends a more satisfying life. My choice is devotion to civilization and therefore put limits on noise making.

Consumer Avengers

Almost everything is back to normal.

Restaurants can open up 12pm, up to 4 persons sitting in a same table.

Sport center, library, cinema…

Our life can be acting as a normal human being again.

What happens next?

A lot of people will become “Consumer Avengers”.

Without knowing when will the virus come again.

They will start spent / enjoy as much as they could.

Because the world might end tomorrow.

I use to don’t believe this theory.

But this time I am become a 70% believer.

Maybe later I will become a 100% “consumer avengers”?

Life is too short.

We have to make it colorful, nothing wrong with that.

leadership

Leaders and directors in an organization are normally older people. Some people think younger leaders would be better. Do you agree or disagree?
First of all, it is better to remember to not judge the capability of individuals by mere their age. The leadership of an organization is a critical position that cannot be given to staff members based only on their age. One the one hand, it is common sense that elderly people have much more experience than the young. Due to this reason, most likely they can handle problematic situations better. The Aged are more respected in the organization and then have a more powerful voice than the young staff. As the time spent working in the organization is longer, the elderly can understand the problems and feelings of the staff much better.
On the other hand, young individuals are much more capable in terms of physical ability. The role of leadership in an organization is stressful because directors must deal with a lot of problems and there is a lot of pressure on them. Younger generations are more creative and can open new paths to a company. They have significant familiarity with new technologies. As people become older they gradually tend to be more conservative, so that young staff is more open to new changes.
In conclusion, I am in this belief that in selecting the leader other important parameters should be taken into the account as well.
