                       26 September 2016, today we had mid-term exam. For me the exam test was pretty difficult because there were many vocabularies that I didn’t know the meaning. After we all finished exam, the teacher asked us to read the passage called Splitting Hairs and did exercises and when finished reading and and she asked us to talk with partner about the answer of each questions in exercises.

After that, the teacher gave us handouts and started new lesson. She gave us some words and ordered us to find the meaning or information of it.

Martial arts : a sport that is a traditional Japanese or Chinese form of fighting or defending yourself.

Mc Donalds’ Happy meals : It’s a promotion of Mc Donald.
Hello Kitty toys : Toy's company.

Moutain Dew: It’s fizzy drink. Country of origin is USA.

Crouching Tiger : It’s Drama/Action Film.
Tazo Chai Tea : ginger, cardamon , cinnamon, fennel, black tea.
Wasabi mashed potatoes : mashed potatoes with wasabi.
Fusion dishes : essentially a mixing of food culture and cuisines.

Boba drinks : It’s bubble tea. Country of origin is Taiwan.

Rick Yune : An american actor, screen writer, producer martial artist and former model.

Nicole Bilderback: Korean- born, American actress

kelly Liu: An american actress, voice actress, director, producer singer and artist.

After that, she asked us to do exercise and discuss about the questions in handouts with the partner that sat next to us.

Next, she told us to read the passage called The “Asianization” of the United States.

And then she ordered us to do some exercises for homework.

The strategies that I used today were skimming,  scanning , previewing, finding references, predicting and guessing words meaning from the context.

In my opinion, I thought  this lesson was pretty hard for me because there were many difficult that I didn’t know the meaning and Chinese names were hard to read but I could solve the problem by finding it in dictionary and asking my friends and teacher. That's all for today.See you  next week.

Exercise : Your university has decided that all female students should have long hair and all male students should have crew cuts. Write your opinion about this.

    In my opinion, I think that the new hair rules are a bad idea because it seems like University want to produce robots  not creative students. Set the rule like that, I think, it’s the way to block off the ideas of students  and I think hairstyles won’t be affected  ability to learn so then why all students should have hair in the same way ? University is very stressful. Rules about student’s hair will put more stress to students.Let students create their own hairstyle is better. Let them be creative people.
