...story about a ten or ten year old kid who goes to a English school and he only knows knows Spanish. In the beginning Francisco parents move to America not knowing any English. In the middle when he goes to school he had know idea what anyone was saying because they all spoke in English. In the end people didn't know what he’s saying but they didn’t care just because he only knew Spanish. This story shows that it is not what's on the outside like only knowing Spanish it is what's on the inside which is being nice and thoughtful. One way Francisco is getting bowled is when the class made fun of his Spanish because everyone spoke English. For example, in paragraph ten, the author says, “some of them looked at me and giggled.” The example shows that he is getting laughed at because he speaks a different language and he is a different race. This is important because Francisco is scared because he doesn't understand English. Francisco was humiliated when kids were laughing at him....

...10 SIMPLE WAY IMPROVE ENGLISH 1. This is what most people would advise: read. Read anything and everything in English. You can read story books, newspapers, magazines, blogs, comics, English textbooks, instructions and ingredients on food packages, advertisements, etc. For story books, don’t force yourself to read something too difficult or something you know you won’t enjoy. Make reading fun! Read books that you ENJOY reading. I hate to read books that bore me too. 2. Watch English movies with subtitles. This would be my favorite way of learning English. Not only do I get to have a fun time watching the movie, I’d be learning new words at the same time and knowing how to pronounce them! Usually, you can get movies with English subtitles on DVDs. 3. Listen to English songs. Read the lyrics as you listen to the songs. Listen to your favorite songs and sing along to them. 4. Start a blog in English. This is one way for you to practice your writing. Blog on something that you love. If you are a fan of movies, start a blog and write about your favorite movies, your favorite characters, what you think could be improved in the movie, what new movies to expect next year, etc. Besides blogging, try joining online forums; engage in online chatting and more. 5. If you don’t want to maintain a blog, why not write to a pen pal? It’d be even more fun to have a pen pal from a different country! I used to write to other people from the US, Germany, Mexico, and even Yugoslavia. I remember...

...pass judgment. They also make judgments about a specific area due to their accents. People might make fun of you, laugh at you and associate stereotype with you based on your accent. For example, there’s a lot more prejudice against a Southern accent than there is against any other kind. In the Northerner’s mind, a southern accent equals both ignorance and racism and you’ll see that stereotype reinforced in zillions of old movies. Slow-talking Southerner who’s the butt of all the jokes in the military movie. And that’s a stock character in American movies and it really has reinforced the prejudice against the southern accent. Before watching this movie, I didn’t know American will also make fun of people who speak English with regional accents. Because I didn’t grow up in the USA and It is hard for me to tell if the people have regional accent or not. I grew up in China and my mother langue is Chinese. English is my second language, and the English I speak people name it Chinglish. I experienced any negative reactions to the way I speak English. In my daily life, sometimes I discussed projects with my classmates, some of them will frown and asked me to say it again and some of them will ignored what I said, which makes me feel very upset and stupid. But sometimes, some American didn’t show prejudice against my English, they were willing to talk with me and think my English is good and ask me how I learn it. Besides, one of my...

...Organizational Behavior Introduction The American Heritage Dictionary defines fun as “a source of enjoyment, amusement or pleasure”. Imagine working for a company for more than 40 hours a week with a team of introverts. This may sound great to individuals who may have found refuge in isolation, but it comes at a cost for the company. Hodge-Cronin & Associates conducted survey of 737 CEO’s. The survey revealed that 98% of this group “preferred job candidates with a sense of humor to those without” (Rau-Foster, 2000). Can fun really make that much of a difference? Can fun make a company rank #1 for best company to work for? Dr. David Abramis has been researching and studying the topic for years now. “He’s discovered that people who have fun on the job are more creative, more productive, better decision-makers and get along better with co-workers. They also have fewer absentee, late, and sick days than people who aren’t having fun” (Rau-Foster, 2000). Explanation CNN Money has ranked Google as #1 for the “100 Best Companies to Work For” for 2013. Why is this? In 2006, Genentech a company that makes medicine that fights cancer, was ranked #1. Employee’s working for Genentech stated, “What’s better than being a valued member of a cancer-fighting team? Having a great time while you’re at work” (CNN Money, 2006). This company had a 5 percent turnover rate and 20 percent job growth. Now remember the year 2006! Google was on the bottom of this list in 2007. This leaves...

...In my journal entry of a subordinate group member I will be talking about is Puerto Rican. I remember when I was a young girl moving from Puerto Rico to the United States. My family and I were moving to Maine from Puerto Rico. I was very sad to be moving away from my home to a new place where I didn’t know anyone and didn’t know what to expect. My family was dealing with a lot in Puerto Rico, we had lost our home and they lost their jobs. So we had no choice to move to the United States. My trip to Portland, Maine was unforgettable. When we got on the plane to go to the United States it was very scary, since I had never been on an airplane before. We took off from the runway to go to the United States; I was looking out the window. I could see so much from air, everything looked so small. I was so sad that we were leaving our home, but my mom started talking about our history. Back in the Spanish-American War of 1898, Puerto Rico was ceded by Spain to the United States. When the 1900’s came around the U.S. Congress established a civil government on the island. In result of this Puerto Ricans began to migrate to the United States, and almost immediately after this the island became a U.S. protectorate. It was such a long trip to Portland, Maine. We had to land in Philadelphia International Airport for a three hour layover. I found it very interesting, the airport was so big and many different kinds of people in the airport. It was time to board the plane to get to Portland...
