Changes in care giving roles
With the burden of financial support reduced, and with a changing concept of a father’s role,
modern day fathers tend to be more involved in children’s care giving. They are now spending more time
and energy on their children. Psychological research across families from all ethnic backgrounds suggests
that the influence of a father’s love and attention is as great as that of a mother’s. Fatherly love helps
children develop a sense of their place in the world, which helps their social and emotional development.
Moreover, children who receive more love from their fathers are less likely to have behavioural
problems.
This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer in the future, especially in
traditionally male-dominated societies.

Tigers are one of the most powerful and graceful animals in the world. The different species that
still exist today, namely the Bengal, Indochina, Siberian, South China and Sumatra tigers are in danger of
becoming extinct. Due to irresponsible hunting, the Bali, Caspian and Java tigers have already become
extinct. This could soon happen to the other species too.
In the past, tigers were considered as pests. With a smaller area to hunt, as man had taken up more
of the land to build upon, the tigers found less area for themselves to hunt. They thus turned to farms to
get their food. Farmers’ livestock were attacked by these tigers. People were then encouraged to hunt and
kill these animals with the promise of rewards. Even after the threat of tigers on livestock was over, man
continued to hunt tigers, this time for recreation. Poachers too hunt tigers for their body parts knowing
that the skin of tigers is much sought after. Bones and other organs are also used as ingredients in
traditional Chinese medicine. Although killing is illegal, it is still being carried out unless it is stopped,
the remaining species of tigers will soon become extinct too.

in advance. Before your departure, make sure you get as much information about your destination as you
can. Find out if you require any special visas or permits to travel there. Think about spending money as
well. Will you be able to access your own money easily enough or will you need to take cash with you?

generally cheaper. Make sure that you keep sufficient identification with you at all times. It may also help

Son Doong Cave has become more famous after the American Broadcasting Company (ABC)
aired a live programme featuring its magnificence on ‘Good Morning America’ in May 2015.
Located in Quang Binh Province, Son Doong Cave was discovered by a local man named Ho Khanh in
1991, and became known internationally in 2009 thanks to British cavers, led by Howard Limbert. The
cave was formed about 2 to 5 million years ago by river water eroding away the limestone underneath the
mountain. It contains some of the tallest known stalagmites in the world - up to 70 metres tall. The cave
is more than 200 metres wide, 150 metres high, and nearly 9 kilometres long, with caverns big enough to
fit an entire street inside them. Son Doong Cave is recognised as the largest cave in the world by BCRA
(British Cave Research Association) and selected as one of the most beautiful on earth by the BBC
(British Broadcasting Corporation).
In August 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave on a guided tour. Permits are now
required to access the cave and are made available on a limited basis. Only 500 permits were issued for
the 2015 season, which runs from February to August. After August, heavy rains cause river levels to rise
and make the cave largely inaccessible.

After inventing dynamite, Swedish-born Alfred Nobel became a very rich man. However, he foresaw its
universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of
dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to

physics, chemistry, medicine and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the
first awarded ceremony.

diploma and money) are present to the winners. Sometimes politics plays an important roles in the
