Causes And Effects
There are many new government policies in a year.
Most of policies have had several important effects on society.
However, from time to time, the response of people have several influences on their government. A good policy by government should be restricted within the demand of people. It is believed that more than 30 months old cows easily get ill mad cow disease.(SRM)
Here is a good case by mutual relationship. At first, an April agreement to resume imports of American beef is engaged between USA and South Korea, 2008. All people get angry. Thousands of protesters go to Seoul Plaza in front of City Hall and persist in their opinion, “renegotiation" However, government has rejected such calls because it would hurts South Korea’s international credibility. But candle protests against government go on every night. The number of protesters is gradually increasing day by day like snowball. The method of vigil is almost peaceful. Those who participate in candlelit vigils are from various classes; children, students, teachers, workers, etc.
Finally, these protests against government have had several important effects on government policy. First of all, President Lee has replaced his top advisers and apologized to the public. Second, Lee is trying to listen the demand of the people. All U.S. beef imported into South Korea will be less than 30 months old. Last, and the most importantly, government accedes to people’s demand.
People and government should realize each other that they are good partners. Since then, there are always mutual relationships.

Comparing Two Travel Packages
There are two plans planning a trip to Hawaii. Both of them have several differences and similarities. Comparing them prudently, you can find better one.
Plan A and Plan B are different travel packages to Hawaii. First of all, Plan A’s traveling period, 8 days and 7 nights, is shorter than that of Plan B, 15 days and 14 nights. Second, Plan A costs less expensive than Plan B. However, Plan A costs about $299 a day, but Plan B costs about $193 a day. Third, Plan A provides guided tours around each land, but Plan B doesn’t serve that.
On the other hand, Plan A and Plan B have several things in common. First of all, Plan A includes welcome party, and so does Plan B. Both Plan A and Plan B are staying in deluxe hotel. Second, Plan A serves transportation to and from airport, and Plan B does too. Moreover, both of them serve breakfast and dinner. Finally, Plan A visits two islands, Oahu and Maui, and so does Plan B.
Which do you like better, Plan A or Plan B? In my opinion, both Plans give you precious memory.

About The Death Penalty..
I think the death penalty should be maintained by governments for a long time.
In my opinion, governments should the death penalty to punish criminals.
First of all, the death penalty is useful for the prevention of crime if it doesn’t execute. It gives stabitity to a society. Second, if one person commits crime, there must be a punishment. Finally, a person who committed a brutal crime must be punished by death penalty. Otherwise, people who demand the abolition of the death penalty insist folling things. They insist the maintenance of the death penalty doesn’t decrease crime rates. Moreover, if there is a misjudgment, an execution of death penalty is never recovered. The death penalty is often abused in political. But, I don’t agree with the abolition of capital penalty. If the death penalty is abolished, how they decrease crime rates. I don’t forgive murderers and those who disrupt one’s family. I think that they don’t insist their human rights. Everyman has his human rights. But murderers throw their humanity. For these reasons, I think the death penalty should be maintained by governments for a long time.

Introduction
James
Introduction
Good morning, everyone? Let me just start by introducing myself. My name is Dong-Wan Kim and my English name is James. Today, I’d like speak about my past, present, and my future plan. I’ve divide my presentation into three parts.
First, I will talk about my family.
Second, I will talk about my job.
Finally, I will talk about my future plan.
The presentation will take about five minutes. If you have any questions, please feel free to interrupt.
First, I was born in Seocheon, Chungcheongnam-Do, 1962. It is located near by West Sea. In my childhood, I played with my friends at the beach all day long. When I was 9 years old, my family moved from Seocheon to Seoul. My father decided to educate his children in Seoul. My parents live in Pyung-Taek now. I live in Jungneung dong, SeongBuk-Gu.
There are four people in my family, My wife, my son, my pretty daughter, and me. My son is 17 years old, second year high school student. He is taller than me yet last year. My cute daughter is 13 years old, 6th grade elementary school student.
Second, I’d like talk about my job. I work for Seoul Metropolitan Government. I worked at there for 13 years. I have ever worked several divisions: Housing planning division, Cultural division, Subway construction division, Audit inspection division, etc. As you know, civil servants always serve citizens.
Finally, I will talk about my future plan. There are many foreigners who visit City Hall every. The number of foreigners who visits Seoul is increased year by year. They want to get useful information of Seoul. Some of them want to get traveling information, and some others want to invest information. I’m going to give information what they want. I want to make foreigners direct investment in Seoul successfully. Also, I’m going to a guide for foreigners who travel to Seoul. But now, I don’t understand exactly what they said. And I don’t know how to say. I’m poor at English now. For these reasons, I need to improve my English. This is why I’m studying English now. I plan to go abroad within a few years later.

I Always Live In My Hometown...
I usually go to my hometown when I was sleeping.
My home town is Biin-myeon, Seocheon - gun, Chungcheongnam-Do. I was born in Biin in 1962. It is my permanent home in my soul. Its size is 31.16㎢. There were 4,609 people in 2001. My home is located apart from other homes. All people in my village work at agriculture. It’s a very small village, there are just fifties houses. But it has a vast sea. In my home, I can see waters behind the breakwater within my reach. In my childhood, I played at the beach with my friends all day long. There is a small island near the beach. When the tide was on the ebb, we went to the island. We used to catch crabs and gobies there. Every night, there were shouts of frogs, sounds of waves, and noises of weed insects. When I was 9 years old, my family moved from Biin to Seoul. My father decided to educate his children in Seoul. When I was a middle school student, sometimes, I woke up suddenly at night because I heard some sounds of waves from my hometown. Two years ago, Seocheon employee’s resort was built there by Seoul Metropolitan Government. I was very glad to hear that. But I didn’t go there once. I go to Biin once or twice a year. But my soul is always there, at the beach. the end.

How to make a Rabokyi.
I like cooking Rabokyi.
On weekend, whenever your wife got a cold, you should make lunch. Rabokyi is the best food of all. It is very easy for you to make a good Rabokyi. It will take about 30 minutes. First of all, prepare for all ingredients of Rabokyi. For example, you need some fish pastes, green onion, some sticks made of rice cake, Korean hot pepper paste, a radish, and seasoning. Second, you must cut radish into thick pieces. And it's the same as green onion, and fish paste. Next, you put radish, with one spoon of seasoning, into boiling water. Next put green onion and fish paste into the water. Now, you should well stir up hot pepper paste and small amount of water. And put it into the boiling water. Five minutes later, put two spoons of sugar into the boiling water. In addition, put some sticks of made of rice cake into water and you should stir them up. From that time, boil it using feeble fire until it becomes thick. At the same time, you should boil another water, to the next side range. When the water is boiling, put ramen into the water. Finally, put well done ramen into the first pot and stir them up well. You can eat very delicious Rabokyi. I must cook it well because my daughter likes it very much.
