Since we are very honoured to have Professor Chau as our guest speaker for the talk on ‘Cross-cultural Negotiation’, we' decided to move this session to the last one. Therefore, the last session, ‘Business Card Design’, will be the fifth one instead. Mal you also remember to change the venue as this Session must be conducted in the computer lab. For the first session, the venue should be Lecture hall 1, not Room 251. For the third session, it should be ‘Dining Etiquette’ because we think the word ‘Dining’ is more appropriate than “Table'. Please remember to have formal dress con that day. No shorts or jeans are allowed. You may write down ‘Formal drassing’ in the remarks Section. Right, next. Due to the renovation work, Lecture hall 12 is not available for booking, We have already booked lecture hall 15 instead. Please update it accordingly. We suggest all participants bring their own company's press kit for reference, so mark down ‘Bring press kit’ in the remarks section also for that day. I'd almost forgotten. An opening ceremony will be held before the first session starts, around 9 o'clock in the morning, so on the first row, you have to write down ‘Opening ceremony at 9" in the remarks section, That's all for the changes. ‘WML Elective Exploration A(p.35) EH 4.40 2c 5.6 38 F 8.37) 1.

You are asked to gather information for the next issue of its newsletter. Use the information in the recording and the press release to ‘complete the task. Recently we have conducted a survey to find out how much young children know about nature and their experiences in the countryside. ‘The survey was conducted in May. We interviewed 150 pre-school children from three to five years old. Of the respondents, 76% indicated that they had been to the countryside. Among them, ‘85% went there for a barbecue or pienic. Only 13% got to observe plants and animals or had 2 nature walk. Of the respondents, about 12% had never been to the countryside. When being asked whether they liked to go to the countryside, about 39% of the respondents did not like it because they felt that the countryside was too dirty. Some said that it wat too hot to go there and they preferred to stay in an air-conditioned room. Although 52% of the respondents said they loved the countryside, they liked it because they ‘enjoyed barbecuing and playing there. Only 2% mentioned that they loved to get close to nature. Another part of the survey was to test their knowledge of nature. When the children were asked to identify a photograph of a tadpole, only 37% of the respondents got it right while the rest picked a wrong picture or could not give an answer When they wore asked to match the food for four different kinds of animals, namely fons, monkeys, Giraffes and horses, only 43% of the children got the right answers. The survey also asked whether dragons and unicorns existed now. Over 25% of the children stated they existed in our modern world in summary the results show that today’s children lack awareness of nature, which might hinder future cnviconmental protection and conservation efforts, 40 Summer Adventure in English 3 (Third Edition) = Elective Exploration A.(9.69) 1.
