To begin with, it is commonly acknowledged that people living longer marks the advancement of civilization/ health care/medical care. For instance, a greater elderly population means a greater financial burden for the government as elder people generally use more services in the social welfare system.

My Sentiment About Twilight
Twilight is a grossing movie.It skillfully incorporates vampire, love and science fiction .New York Times review this movie as "Full of love the futhure of tension, but elegant refined as Jane Austen ,reached the a kind of acme of romance novel."
It tells a heartbreaking love story between a high school student Bella and a handsome vampire Edward. They are from strangers to be acquainted with each other then finally be loved.They went through the
pain which ordinary people can't imagine. This full of science fiction color's love film interpret us the great power of through the view that distinguished from humans, which is also the writer want to show us "Love is the best part of a story".
But the way, I really really like the films.

The book was written by Emily Bronte, it published in 1847.But at that time, it seemed to hold little promise, selling very poorly and receiving only a few mixed reviews. I found this in our school lit orary, I chose this book because the title attracted me. The book is structured around two parallel love stories, the first half of t he novel centering on the love between Catherine and Heathcliff, while the less dramatic second half features the developing lo ove between young Catherine and Hareton.In
contrast to the first, the latter tale ends happily, restoring peace and order to Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. In the story, the two houses, Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, represent opposing worlds and values.]]> 2021-10-30 13:56:54 UTC https://padlet.com/lium31/nk0jhxpuv2f9o9bd/wish/1855532662 Week 7 lium31 https://padlet.com/lium31/nk0jhxpuv2f9o9bd/wish/1880799261 2021-11-10 09:28:47 UTC https://padlet.com/lium31/nk0jhxpuv2f9o9bd/wish/1880799261 Week 7 lium31 https://padlet.com/lium31/nk0jhxpuv2f9o9bd/wish/1886707993 Independent study

The environment is closely related to medicine. The followings are two main points. The first part is human health. The price of rapid development of industry is pollution, especially air pollution. What is worth mentioning is that some diseases show a trend of getting younger, especially cancer. The second part is animals’ health. Environmental problems have worse influences on their new generation. In the past several years, the population of some endangered penguins decreases 70%. Similarly, the average nesting success rate for some rare turtles had dropped to just 40%. So, it is important to focus on animals’ health. To put it briefly, we must develop some useful medicines to cure diseases caused by environment pollution and also find new ways to protect environment.

^{Which one is more vital, economic growth or technological growth?}

With the rapid developing of industries, our equality and quality of life is better and better (Bowles, Edwards, and Roosevelt, 2005, p.8). In my opinion, economic growth is more essential. Firstly, the main reason is developing technology need a lot of money, because it is a new and unknowledgeable field to employ an expert to advise on new technology. In addition, economic growth is easier than technology growth. As is generally accepted, economic growth is determined by the smooth development of the production. Economic growth would benefit everyone by raising national income and expanding opportunity (Wetherly and Otter, 2011, p.341). To put in a nutshell, considering all the factors above, we can safely draw the conclusion that economic growth is more important.

While today cultural issues still play a great role in a company’s potential for global success and trade barriers still mean that trade within a country is easier than international trade (Hamilton and Webster, 2009).

This essay will look firstly at some key impacts why improving telecommunications networks are positive way, followed by an explanation of the effects.

This is a very good Padlet. You have obviously engaged with your own learning and used this resource to demonstrate this and express your interests. It shows both independent learning and learning from the course. Well done!

Keep this up for next semester! Great work!
