Being Friends with the Face 
in the Mirror 
“Samantha is a perfect friend. She always supports her friends,” 
Alice wrote about me. I was shocked when I read this. Was she 
really talking about me? I couldn’t believe anyone would write such 
a positive thing about me . especially Alice! We have had a lot of 
arguments since we became friends. Surely, she must know all my 
faults! 
When I look in the mirror, it’s hard 
for me to see anything positive in myself. 
Rather, there are many things that I don’t 
like about myself. I’m not just talking about 
my big nose and bad skin. I’ve done lots of 
foolish things that I’m not proud of. I’ve 
lied to my parents and sometimes stretched 
the truth with my friends. I’ve also started 
rumors about people, even Alice.

22 Lesson 1 l Discover Your Uniqueness 
Last year, I caused some problems between Alice and her 
boyfriend, Danny. I started a rumor that she had gone on a date 
with another boy. However, this wasn’t true. I secretly liked Danny 
and was jealous that he wanted to go out with Alice, not me. Alice 
5 
never found out that I had started the rumor. Looking back on 
what I had done, I felt guilty. 
One day, my homeroom teacher, Mr. Roberts, had our class do 
a special activity. He made each of us stand in front of the class one 
by one, and talk about ourselves . our interests, family, friends,

and future dreams. While the person was speaking, the rest of the

Q5. Guess why Samantha 
felt nervous when it 
was her turn to speak. 
When it was my turn to speak, I felt 
very nervous thinking about what my friends 
would write about me. There was Amy, 
who knew that I had started the rumor 
about Alice, and Dave, who caught 
me cheating on a math test earlier that 
week. Lauren was in the class, too, who 
once asked me where I got the money 
for my new shoes. I told her that I had lied to my mother that 
5 
I needed money to buy some books. Most of all, there was Alice. 10 
She had the worst time last year because of the rumor that I had 
started. Considering all these, I was really on the hot seat. Could 
any of them think of even one good thing to write about me? 
After everyone had taken their turns to speak, Mr. Roberts 
collected every note. This time, we were told to write down what we 
think about ourselves. Then he gave us the notes back 
to let us see what we had written about each other. 
I didn’t dare to see what Mr. Roberts had handed 
me at first. As I finally read them, however, 
I couldn’t believe my eyes! The notes were full 
of glowing comments about me.

And then, there was Alice’s note. It said that I was a perfect 
friend and always supported her. Reading what she had written 
10 
about me, I recalled the time when we were close friends. She was 
always there for me when I was going through hard times. She 
listened to my problems and tried to encourage me with friendly 
words. Whenever I needed a shoulder to cry on, she used to be

After reading all my friends’ comments, I looked

I hadn’t even dared to think about the question, “Is 
there anything good about me?” My friends had made

Bring Success 
with the Pygmalion Effect 
Supplementary Reading 
There was a man in Greek mythology, Pygmalion, who used to hate women. Feeling 
lonely, however, he made a statue of a perfect woman and fell in love with it as if it were 
real. One day, Pygmalion went to Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, and asked 
her for a woman just like the statue. Listening to his prayer, Aphrodite realized how deep 
his love was and made the statue become a real woman. 
The Pygmalion effect is named after the man and means one’s 
high expectations of or belief in someone creates a positive influence 
on the person and brings satisfying results. This occurs because 
people feel proud of themselves when they are respected and try to 
meet the expectations. 
In 1968, Professor Robert Rosenthal from Harvard University and Lenore Jacobson, 
who had been an elementary school teacher, carried out an experiment. They first gave 
an IQ test to students and then chose some of them. They gave the list of the students to 
teachers, saying that those students were most likely to show the biggest improvement. 
Eight months later, they tested all the students again and found out that those who were 
in the list had improved a lot on the test. The teachers’ expectations of those students had 
played a major role in this change. 
To summarize, encouraging someone has positive effects 
on his or her ability and leads that person to success. It is 
also important to believe in ourselves when trying to achieve 
something.

Hello, I’m a 17-year-old boy in need of your advice. I want to be perfect, but it is not easy. 
I usually study very hard to get perfect grades on tests. So, whenever I get questions 
wrong, I feel disappointed and think I’m not smart enough. Also, for the speech contest 
I was in last month, I had prepared very hard for several months. However, when I finally

I’m sorry to hear that you are having a hard time, and feeling

make you feel less nervous about tests. Second, don’t get so 
disappointed by your grades. If you keep trying, your grades 
will get better. So, don’t give up on anything. Last, blaming 
yourself is not helpful in building your confidence. Say some 
encouraging words to yourself such as “I am a good person and I 
can do anything,” or “I’ll do better next time.” I hope my advice 
helps you feel better.

Turning Tin Cans into a Radio 
Victor Papanek was a designer who worked for the United Nations 
and UNESCO. He realized that many people in developing 
countries were illiterate. They couldn’t read magazines or 
newspapers. To make matters worse, there was little electricity 
5 
available where they lived, and they also couldn’t afford batteries 
for radios. They were cut off from the rest of society, unable to 
hear any news about what was going on in the outside world. In 
1962, however, Papanek designed a radio made with old tin cans 
that didn’t require batteries. It could be powered by burning wax or 
10 
cow dung . things that could be found easily around the village. 
The heat from the fire would rise up and create enough energy for 
a small earplug speaker. Even better, the design was so simple that 
nearly anyone could make their own for less than nine cents. As 
a result, Papanek’s tin-can radios were used to bring important 
15 
news and information to poor people in Indonesia and India for 
many years.

Q4. What caused many 
people in Zimbabwe to 
die in 2009? 
Clean Water in a Rolling Barrel 
Clean water is essential for our health. However, it is not common 
in some parts of the world. Those who can’t get enough clean 
water can be exposed to many health risks. In 2009, for example, 
the UN reported that around 1,000 people in Zimbabwe had 
died due to *cholera, a disease caused by drinking unclean water. 
5 
To avoid getting diseases, people in many parts of Africa had to 
walk long distances every day to get clean water. After filling up 
their buckets with water, they carried them back home on their 
heads. This caused not only pain, but also health problems. The 
Hippo Roller was invented to solve these problems. It is made of 
a large plastic barrel and a long handle. The barrel can hold up to 
90 kilograms of water, and people just need to roll it back home. 
They can now carry a large amount of clean water with much less 
effort. By making it easier for the poor in Africa to get clean water, 
the Hippo Roller has saved countless lives.

A Ball Made to Inspire Hope 
In many countries, soccer has been one of the most popular sports. 
However, many children in poor countries could not afford the 
proper equipment. They often used an empty can as a ball. This 
hurt their bare feet. So a Korean design team created the Dream 
5 Ball Project. It provides children in disaster zones with special 
soccer balls made from aid boxes. The boxes are delivered to the 
poor to give them basic supplies. Once the box is empty, children 
Q6. What did many poor 
children use as a ball? 
can easily turn it into a soccer ball by following the directions 
printed on the box. Children not only have a safe and fun activity, 
but also get a ball that inspires them with dreams. The Dream Ball 
Project is an example of how a good design can efficiently improve 
the lives of poor people.

See Better to Learn Better 
Eyesight problems cause learning difficulties, as they make it hard 
for students to see the writing on the board or read textbooks. In 
Mexico, it is estimated that up to 70 % of the students in some 
schools need glasses. However, many poor families could not afford 
glasses for their children. In addition, poor eyesight was considered 
5 
a handicap in Mexico. Therefore, many students resisted wearing 
glasses. To help fight this problem, a design team created special 
glasses to appeal to young students. The glasses are made with 
a special frame that is divided into two parts. Wearers can choose 
different top and bottom colors for their own look. This makes 
10 
it fun for students to wear the glasses without feeling shameful. 
Besides, they can get a nice pair of glasses for free. Thanks to this 
project, students can now see more clearly, learn better and have 
more chances for success later in life.

Appropriate Technology 
Supplementary Reading 
Appropriate Technology 
Looking around, we can see how convenient and interesting modern technology has 
made our lives. However, people in poor countries can’t afford it. NGOs and scientists 
want to use technology to help these people. This idea is called 
industry. Appropriate technology uses traditional ideas and aims 
“appropriate technology,” an idea originally developed by 
Mahatma Gandhi. During India’s struggle for independence, 
Gandhi made his own clothes to protest against the British 
to be environmentally friendly. 
Even though it seems unrealistic, it serves an important 
role in reaching people who live in some of the world’s poorest 
parts. In such places, people cannot afford technology that 
requires lots of electricity. One solution is the Freeplay radio, 
which can be charged by hands. There is also a water pump 
called the Super Money Maker, which can bring water from 
the ground easily without electricity. And a cell phone charger, the D-light S250, 
which doesn’t need electricity, uses light from the sun instead. 
Products like these sometimes open new markets in the 
developed world, too. The Life Straw was first created for people in 
developing countries. It’s a device that makes water clean without 
electricity. However, it has now become popular in the developed 
world as well, due to concerns over water pollution.

Designs for the Better 
Culture 
Ever since people started to make something, the trends and goals of designs have changed a lot. 
Unlike in the past when designs focused only on practicality or beauty, today’s designs consider the 
influence the products have on the society, culture, and the quality of the users’ lives. 
Universal Design 
The design applied in creating products, buildings, and 
environments that are equally used by people with and 
without disabilities is called universal design. The term 
was invented by an architect named Ronald L. Mace 
to describe design concepts that are both beautiful 
and useful for everyone, with no limit of age, status, 
or ability. 
Search the Internet for more information about trends of designs. Share what you find 
with your class. 
SeARCH 
ergonomic Design 
The study of how things fit the human body 
and its movements is called ergonomics. Ergonomic 
design uses rules and data about the human body to 
design items that consider our physical conditions. 
Sustainable Design 
Sustainable design is about creating products, 
buildings, and ser vices that focus on the 
responsibilities for the society, economy, and 
environment. Increasing awareness of 
global environmental crises, such 
as global warming, has made sustainable design more popular. 
It reminds people of problems like the lack of resources and 
rapid human population growth.

Food History 
Food is an important part of every culture. The food that we eat 
has changed a lot throughout history. The way it is prepared and 
served has also changed greatly over time. Long ago, in Europe, 
French chefs developed many techniques and dishes that are still 
popular today, and their ideas continue to be respected around the 
world. 
In the early 19th century, as long as a dish looked fancy, its taste 
was not important. Dishes were decorated with pretty toppings, 
which could not be eaten. They were also cooked with ver y 
complicated recipes and served with rich sauces which might ruin 
the flavors of the ingredients. Moreover, food was usually served 
cold and put in huge buffets with more than 100 different dishes. 
Q1. What was most 
important when cooking 
dishes in the early 
19th-century France? 
74 Lesson 3 l The Pleasure of Eating 
Auguste Escoffier is a legendary French chef who made 
cooking trends of that time simple. He believed that food was for 
eating, not for looking at. To preserve the flavor of each dish, he 
used light sauces and necessary ingredients only. When it came to 
5 
serving food, he changed the practice of large buffet-style meals. 
The meals were broken down into several courses, with one dish 
Q2. How did Escoffier 
change the way food 
was served? 
per course. 
Generally, they would start the meal with soup, followed by 
a fish dish, and then a meat dish. At the end, there was always 
10 
a delicious dessert. Unlike the huge buffets, each course could be 
served fresh from the kitchen. This was a revolution in the history 
Escoffier is a legendary 
chef and was one of the 
most important leaders 
in the development of 
modern French cooking. 
He published Le Guide 
Culinaire, which is still used 
as a major guide book.

Q3. Why was Escoffier’s 
meal preparation 
called a revolution? 
Q3. Why was Escoffier’s 
meal preparation 
called a revolution? 
In order to meet the demands of each course, Escoffier 
modernized meal preparation by dividing his kitchens into five 
different sections. The first section made cold dishes and organized 
the supplies for the whole kitchen. The second section took care 
of soups, vegetables, and desserts. The third dealt with dishes that 
5 
were roasted, grilled, or fried. The fourth section focused only on 
sauces, and the last was for making pastries. 
This system allowed restaurant kitchens to make their dishes 
Q4. What is the role of 
the head chef in an 
Escoffier’s kitchen? 
eggs Florentine 
Then, the head chef would assemble the dish before it was served 
to the customer. This system was so efficient that it is still used in 
many restaurants today.

much more quickly than in the past. If a customer ordered *eggs 
Florentine, for example, one section would cook the eggs, another 
10 
would make the sauce, and yet another would make the pastry. 
There was another advantage to Escoffier’s styles: The food 
could be served hot. This was an exciting change for those who 
were used to cold buffets. Escoffier thought that the flavors of food 
were stronger when meals were served hot. This was not only 
5 
appealing to his customers’ sense of taste, but also pleasing to their 
sense of smell. 
Some scientific facts support Escoffier’s way of cooking. When 
food is hot, its molecules are active and constantly evaporating into 
the air. This is why boiling tomato sauce can quickly fill a kitchen 
10 
with its scent. The molecules of cold food, on the other hand, are 
less active, so fewer are released into the air. Therefore, when we eat

Q7. Why is delicious food 
described as “mouth-
watering”? 
Q8. Why is Escoffier still 
admired by chefs 
today? 
The smell of food also helps us prepare to enjoy the meal. 
Before we taste a bite, we experience it through its smell. This 
makes the *glands in our mouth produce *saliva. This explains why 
delicious food is sometimes described as “mouth-watering.” For 
example, when a steak is cooked at a high temperature, more of its 
5 
juices are evaporated. This creates a delicious scent in the air. Once 
the scent reaches our nose, our mouth produces saliva that makes 
the steak taste better. 
Escoffier was one of the first chefs who took advantage of these 
facts. Many of his most popular recipes depended on their smell to 
10 
create a special eating experience. With his innovation in cooking, 
it is no wonder that Escoffier is still admired by chefs around the

Is Eating Fast Food 
a Good Idea? 
In the mid-20th century, something new appeared in many people’s lives. The 
world began eating fast food. Because it is served so quickly, many people really 
love fast food. It is convenient and f its our busy modern lives. 
Most people lead busy lives and don’t have much 
time to cook. For such people, fast food can be one way 
to save time. Ordering a meal from a fast food restaurant 
is much quicker than cooking. We also don’t need to go to 
a market or wash dishes. Moreover, it can also be cheaper. 
A set of a burger and fries is often cheaper than buying 
uncooked food from a market. All of this is attractive to millions of people. 
At the same time, however, fast food can be harmful to our health. Many 
fast food items contain too much salt and fat. People who eat fast food on a daily 
basis have an increased risk of developing heart diseases and serious weight 
problems. 
Some people say that fast food is one of the greatest 
modern inventions. However, all inventions can be used 
in harmful ways. While we debate the value of fast food, 
the fast food industry is earning huge profits. Is fast 
food adding something valuable to our lives or simply 
causing harm?

Auguste Escoffier, a legendary French chef , 
modernized meal preparation by dividing his kitchen into 
four different sections. Each section focused on different 
things. This system helped to make dishes much more 
quickly than in the past and meet the demands of huge 
buffets. Moreover, it helped to serve food hot. His hot food 
appealed to both the sense of sight and the sense of touch. 
That’s because the molecules of hot food evaporate into the air, releasing the scent. 
Once it reaches our noses, our mouths water and we enjoy the food even before we 
taste it. Escoffier was one of the first chefs who took advantage of these facts.

restaurant where we could choose any dish we wanted to eat. They 
were able to meet all of our needs. The service was satisfying, 
too. The staff served the dishes politely. The only problem was 
that the restaurant was too busy and crowded. A five-course meal 
was 15,000 won, and a three-course meal was 12,000 won. I think 
those were good prices. If you want to experience a delicious

mainly by three women: Skeeter, Aibileen, and Minny.

wants her to get married like her friends, but Skeeter wants to be

I can’t believe I had forgotten that. The library is only for white

maids unfairly, Skeeter decides to write a book to reveal the truth

American maids suffered from unfair treatment. Reading this novel, 
I realized that ordinary people can change the world. They might go

The Bee Day 
Some students my age like to play sports. Others love fashion or 
computer games. As for me, spelling bees are my biggest passion. 
Ever y day after school, I sit on the front steps of my house 
reading through my old dictionary. My training pays off when 
I get what my friends can hardly spell. 
5 
It’s 6:30 on a Friday morning. As soon as I open my eyes, 
I feel butterflies in my stomach. To calm my nerves, I remind 
myself of the fact that I’m one of the best spellers in my grade. In 
fact, I’m not aiming to win the national competition. All I want 
is to beat my biggest rival, Dan, at the school’s spelling bee. His 
10 
passion for spelling isn’t as strong as mine, but he seems to be 
a good speller without putting much effort into it. Actually, his 
true interest lies in math and science. I bet he’ll be out in the first 
round, especially if he gets a literary word like “*metamorphosis.”

“Sorry, dear. That’s not the answer. You can look it up in the

which is Dan’s favorite. Mr. Steven writes an *equation on the

“What’s a shorter way to write this?” Mr. Steven asks. Dan 
raises his hand right away and Mr. Steven calls on him to answer. “2a

“That’s right! Olivia, can you explain why that is?” 
I take my eyes off the clock and look at Mr. Steven. “‘a’ and

of Montana, U.S.A. A thunderstorm had swept across the area and 
started a small fire in Mann * Gulch. A team of 16 smoke jumpers 
were sent to fight the fire. Under the command of Captain Wag 
Dodge, the group jumped into a valley where some trees were 
burning on the opposite side. Their mission was to cut down the 
trees on the hill and make a fire line to stop the fire. Until then,

At this desperate moment, Dodge came up with an idea. He 
tested the air, checking the direction of the wind. To everyone’s 
surprise, he took out a match and lit an area of grass in front of 
him. The fire quickly burnt out, providing him and his men with 
an area of ash where they would be safe from the frightening 
f lames. He ordered everyone to lie down in the area he had burnt. 
What Dodge did was something that had never been tried before, 
so none of them followed his order. The fire was going to reach

Left alone, Dodge quickly lay down on the burnt soil. As 
the f lames approached him, he covered his mouth with a wet 
handkerchief in order not to breathe in the smoke. As the fire 
surrounded him, Dodge closed his eyes and tried to breathe from 
the thin layer of oxygen that remained near the ground. Several 
painful minutes passed, and Dodge survived the fire, unharmed. 
Sadly, with the exception of two men who found shelter in a small

Left alone, Dodge quickly lay down on the burnt soil. As 
the f lames approached him, he covered his mouth with a wet 
handkerchief in order not to breathe in the smoke. As the fire 
surrounded him, Dodge closed his eyes and tried to breathe from 
the thin layer of oxygen that remained near the ground. Several 
painful minutes passed, and Dodge survived the fire, unharmed. 
Sadly, with the exception of two men who found shelter in a small 
crack in a rock, all of the other men died in the awful fire.

Q8. What should we 
do to solve difficult 
problems? 
Chased by the frightening fire, the men could only think about 
their desperate need to escape. The panic narrowed their thoughts 
to the most basic instinct, which was to run away from the f lames. 
That moment must have been frightening for Dodge, too. Unlike 
the other men, however, Dodge was able to resist the instinct and 
5 
remain calm. He turned to his reason, the part of the conscious 
mind that is capable of deliberate and creative thinking. In other 
words, he focused on finding a new solution. 
Like Dodge’s case, brilliant ideas can be brought when we 
regulate our emotions. We can use our reason to reach creative 
10 
solutions in any crisis. Don’t be frozen by panic when you face 
a difficult problem. Instead, step back and turn your attention to 
possible solutions. In this way, you can come up with ideas that 
may help you deal with the situation.

Eureka Moments 
Eureka moments often occur when a person feels stuck. Feeling stuck simply 
means that the degree of difficulty of a problem is beyond being solved. But the 
solutions to difficult situations can come to us when we control our emotions. 
How can we control our emotions? The answer is surprisingly simple: by 
thinking about them. Our brain has a network of rational parts centered in the 
*prefrontal cortex. It allows us to think carefully. We can try to figure out what we 
feel and why we feel that way. 
Moreover, the cells of the prefrontal 
cortex are so flexible that they can 
process whatever kind of data they’re 
told to do. When our attention shifts, 
these cells change their focus, too. 
The result is that the prefrontal 
cortex lets us consciously analyze 
any type of problem from any angle. 
Instead of responding to our emotions, 
we can concentrate on things that might 
help us come up with a solution. This helps 
us get creative and think about the problem 
in a new way.

There are many things that cause safety accidents in schools. 
One of the main causes is the lack of safety education. Many students 
don't know what to do in an emergency. Another cause is old school 
facilities. For example, a large number of students get injured by 
broken equipment. Dangerous environments around schools can also 
cause safety problems. To solve these problems, schools should provide 
safety education so that students can follow safety instructions. They 
also need to improve their facilities. Finally, people should keep the 
rules set around schools such as driving slowly near school buildings.

What unique Korean images would you like to show people from 
other countries? You might show them the mountains of Seoraksan 
National Park, the beaches of Busan, the royal palaces in Seoul, or 
the smiles of children dressed in colorful hanbok. We can see the 
beautiful spirit of Korea in all of these things, as well as in many 
other things. For years, Korean photographers have tried to capture 
the essence of Korea on camera. The images they have produced 
show various aspects of Korea . including its nature, history, and 
even the faces of its people.

Q1. What can describe the 
images of Korea? 
Pine Tree Series by Bae Bien-u 
Spiritual Landscapes 
Photographer Bae Bien-u (1950 -) has tried to capture images that 
show the natural beauty of Korea. For more than ten years, he 
traveled across Korea and photographed its unique scenes. He is 
known for his images of the pine trees on the hills surrounding 
5 the town of Gyeongju. In fact, pine trees are found all over Korea 
and are a familiar landscape to most Koreans. However, Bae didn’t 
want to simply capture them. He wanted to highlight the cultural 
importance of the trees, which had been believed to connect the 
human soul with heaven. 
Besides, paintings from the *Joseon Dynasty inspired Bae 
to take pictures of the essence of the land. He believes that 
photographs can continue the tradition of painting Korean 
landscapes. Instead of using paint brushes, he captures the 
country’s natural beauty on his camera.

Koo visited a number of museums in Korea and other countries to 
photograph ceramics from the Joseon Dynasty. He chose sixteen 
examples of pure white Korean *porcelain as his subjects and shot 
them mostly in black and white. 
Even though ceramics were popular throughout East Asia 
for centuries, Koreans especially liked simple white porcelains. 
They were very different from the richly decorated ceramics made 
in China and Japan. Furthermore, their simple beauty reflected 
*Confucian values, which ran through the long history of the

Smiling Faces 
To photographer Kim Ki-chan (1938 -2005), the spirit of Korea lies 
in its people. He spent thirty years recording the lives of the people 
in his hometown of Seoul. After the Korean War, he watched the 
town change rapidly into a huge modern city. He wanted to show 
the experiences of people affected by these changes in his pictures. 
Some of his most famous works are from the 1970s. These 
photographs capture the small houses and narrow alleys of a small 
town in Seoul, before they were cleared away to make room for 
apartment buildings.

Q4. What did Kim choose 
as his subjects to show 
the spirit of Korea? 
Kim’s pictures show the lives of ordinary people back then 
that are very different from those of people now. The smiling faces 
of children playing in alleys free of cars remind us of the close 
relationships people in the past used to have with their neighbors. 
These kinds of relationships are seen less in today’s crowded cities 
filled with tall apartment buildings and busy streets. His photos, 
therefore, give older Koreans the chance to recall their memories of 
the past. 
We have seen the pictures of three Korean photographers 
who tried to capture the images of Korean culture and its spiritual 
essence. From the landscapes of big forests to the details of 
porcelain vessels and the smiles of the people, their works have 
made a deep impression on us by showing various aspects of Korea.

Bamboo has had a great influence on Asian culture. China is

of bamboo grow. Bamboo has played an important role in the

development of traditional Chinese culture. For example, Ling 
Lun, the founder of Chinese music, invented one of the earliest 
musical instruments in China, the bamboo pipes. By cutting 12 
different lengths of bamboo pipes, he set the standard tune for

Moreover, bamboo was a role model for the ancient Chinese 
for centuries. People were encouraged to be as upright and strong 
as bamboo. Just like bamboo is hollow inside, they were told to 
keep an open mind. Lots of literature was written about admiring 
the tall and graceful plant. 
White Mulberry 
For thousands of years, silk was one of the most 
valuable products made by the Chinese. People 
from other parts of the world were 
eager to trade for it. But did you know 
that silk has a close connection with 
the white mulberry? The silkworm usually 
feeds on fresh mulberry leaves and then 
produces silk. It takes almost 30,000 
silkworms to produce 12 pounds of 
raw silk. In fact, the Chinese could 
not have manufactured silk if it had 
not been for the white mulberry 
tree. Thanks to it, China became 
a center of silk trade. The white mulberry 
surely is one of the most influential 
plants in all of Asian history.

Sunflower 
This large, brightly colored f lower was first raised by Native 
Americans. In addition to their golden beauty, sunflowers are 
incredibly useful. No part of the sunflower goes to waste. For 
example, Native Americans used the root of the sunflower to heal 
cuts and snake bites. The leaves and stems are still used to make 
baskets. Its seeds are used to make f lour and dyes. The seeds have 
also been used to make oil for cooking purposes. Natural sunflower 
oil is known to provide more vitamins than any other vegetable oil. 
The dried or roasted seeds are popular as a snack, too. But maybe 
the most amazing way to use sunflowers is making them into 
a device for saving lives. The material in the center of sunflower 
stems is similar to cork, and therefore floats quite well. For this 
reason, it has been used to make the safety devices on ships. In 
fact, many people who survived the Titanic disaster 
of 1912 owed their lives to life jackets made from 
sunflowers.

English Oak 
Called the king of the forest, the English oak is famous for its 
strength, size, and long life. These large trees can live for hundreds 
of years and grow as tall as 40 meters. Due to their strong 
and long-lasting wood, they have been used for construction 
throughout Europe. In building ships, no plant was more 
valuable than the English oak. The Mary Rose, one of 
the most powerful battleships of the 15th century, 
was made of English oak. Surprisingly, the ship 
was able to survive for more than 400 years 
under the sea until it was pulled up to the 
land and placed in a museum. Until 
the middle of the 19th century, 
when iron began to be used in 
building ships, thousands of oaks 
had been cut down every year. It is 
estimated that it took 2,000 trees to make 
a ship. If it had not been for the English oak, England could 
not have ruled over colonies in one fourth of the world.

Cotton 
Last but not least, here is another important plant that led to 
historic change. The *Industrial Revolution in the 19th 
century brought about the development of the textile 
industry. As the demand for raw cotton, the material 
to produce soft cloth, dramatically increased, more 
labor was needed in the cotton fields. Many people 
from Africa were brought to cotton farms in the 
American South, where they were forced to work as slaves. 
However, the American North needed cheap labor to work in 
factories. So they urged the Southern States to set the slaves free. 
Eventually, the conflict between the Southern and Northern states 
led to the *American Civil War in 1861.

Black Pepper 
Drew the Colorful Routes 
for Trade 
Black pepper is one of the most widely used spices 
in the world. At first, it was cultivated in India as 
a simple ingredient for cooking. However, it became 
a lot more important to some Europeans who also used 
it for keeping meat from going bad. 
Until the 15th century, some cities in Italy were the center 
for trading black pepper. As the Ottoman Empire in the Middle 
East grew stronger in the 16th century, however, it forced the 
European traders to pay them a high tax. This made black pepper 
so expensive that only a few rich people could afford it. In some 
parts of Europe, black pepper was even considered as valuable 
as gold. 
The great demand for black pepper caused Europeans to search for new sea 
routes to India. It was during this time that Europeans first visited America. It is 
said that Christopher Columbus, who discovered America, thought it was India 
until he died. Europeans 
might never have found 
the New World if it had not 
been for black pepper.

The Boston Tea Party Centuries ago, when America was under British 
colonial rule, tea was considered an essential product and 
its trade played a big role in the world’s economy. When 
the British government attempted to control the trade in 
1773, American people got so upset that they decided to 
show their anger by attacking ships from the East India Company and ruining their tea. The 
British government demanded compensation for the damage, but the Americans refused. 
This event was one of the key causes of the American Revolution.

I think conserving nature should be put before development. It's 
because we should preserve natural habitats for wild animals and 
plants. We have destroyed a lot of wild animals' homes. So, many 
species have nowhere to go. Some birds have to keep on flying because 
they can not find a place to land and take a rest. Besides, nature 
plays an important role in protecting our health. Preventing pollution 
and keeping the air and water clean helps us stay healthy. Like this, 
we can have many advantages by conserving nature. To summarize, 
I believe conservation should be regarded as more important than

to do to prevent accidents and how to react in those
situations. The last is the dangerous behaviors of
students. It causes small and big accidents in schools. To
solve these problems, school should improve old, broken

so that students follow instructions. In addition, school
should set rules for school safety to reduce accidents.

There are many things that cause safety accidents in
schools. One of the main causes is old school facilities.
For example, there is a high possibility that old desks,
chairs, and electronic devices can be broken down and
students can get hurt. Another cause is lack of safety
education. Many students don’t know how to act
properly in an emergency situation. Last, dangerous
areas around school can also cause safety accidents.
Many accidents happen where the new library is being
built because there is no safety fence now. To solve these
problems, schools should change old school facilities,
provide more safety education, and give warnings about
dangerous areas so that students can learn in a safer
environment.

can be a powerful way to make the world understand
Korean culture naturally. In addition, we can expect an
increase in the number of foreign visitors to Korea. It
will be another good way to let the world know more
about Korea. Last, the trend of hallyu will contribute to
the growth in export of products. This will increase the

I think conserving nature should be put before
developing nature. First, nature provides natural habitat
for wild animals and plants. If the nature gets developed
too much, the animals and plants will be in danger
and decrease in the number. Second, nature protects
the health of human beings. Fresh air and clean water
are the things that people cannot live without. For this
reason, I think conserving nature should be considered
first above all.

W: I see. Was it difficult to learn how?
M: I had a passion for what I wanted to do, so
the learning came pretty easily. I went to
an institute where I met Chef Davis, who
became my true teacher.
W: Your true teacher?
M: Yes. He taught me not only how to cook
but how to be a cook. He always said
it’s very important to have a responsible
attitude toward food and people. When I
cook, I always imagine the people who’ll
eat my food. I hope they enjoy it and feel
happy.

M: This is the story of Rosa Parks. She is
known as the mother of the Civil Rights
Movement. In the middle of the 20th
century in America, there were the Jim
Crow laws. They stated that black and
white people should be separated in almost
all public places. Even the seats on buses
were divided into two sections: one of
them for black people and the other for
white people. On December 1, 1955, Rosa
Parks was riding on a bus. She was ordered
to give up her seat to a white passenger,
but she refused to do so. The bus driver
called the police, and she was arrested. The
African-American community got very
upset at her arrest. This caused a 382-day
boycott of the bus routes, which became
known as the Montgomery Bus Boycott.
Eventually, the US government got rid
of the unfair laws. Rosa Parks has been
remembered as one of the leaders in the
movement to create racial equality in the
United States.

The employers could keep threatening
the workers because they hadn’t gotten
permission to stay and work in Korea.
However, I’m convinced no one should

need to change their attitude toward the
workers and treat them the same as Korean

study. First of all, choose a good place
to study. Libraries or private rooms are
a good choice. You will feel comfortable
and be able to concentrate on what you’re
studying. Once you choose a place to
study, clear things that may distract you
from your desk, such as your computer,
MP3 player, or cell phone. Next, make a
daily study plan. List the things you need
to study in order of importance. Then
set appropriate amounts of time for each
subject. Finally, don’t forget to take breaks
regularly. If you sit and study for too
many hours straight, it’ll make it hard to
concentrate.

social skills. Therefore, we need to have
more school activities. For the past several
years, I’ve been active in many clubs, such
as the school choir and a few sports clubs.
These experiences have given me the skills
to plan great school events as president.
I might not be able to promise you more

stay where you are. Protect yourself by
staying away from windows. Cover your
head and neck with your arms and wait
until the shaking stops. Do not run out of
the building during the earthquake. Use
flashlights instead of turning the lights

Isaac Newton had curiosity, he could find
the law of universal gravity when he saw a
falling apple. He wondered why everything
falls to the ground and kept asking
questions throughout his life. It seems that
having curiosity and asking questions are
important in becoming creative.
