How Do You WIN Someone's Heart?
First of all, I think the most important think is to be yourself. Nobody will like a person that's always only acting. Second, you'll need to be nice and friendly, like smile all the time and never get angry at him without any reason. Third, stay at her side for all the time, like never be at the opposing position. You may even give him some advice when he's stuck with any trouble. Last, don't only be good to him, but also his friends and family. Never be rude to people that he know or is good with. However, you'll need to be aware not to talk too much, or he'll think that you're annoying. Then, don't just send him gifts and money all the time, or he'll just view you as an ATM. Don't stick with him for 24 hours, or call him all the time; you'll need to give him some free space. I think these are some points to win someone's heart.

Should We Fear Change?
I think there are always good changes and bad changes. However, I think we should definitely never fear changes. Even when there are bad changes happening, it's always better than having no changes at all. People need to learn to improve, and to improve is to make changes, which we'll never know is good or bad before we see the outcome. Although I think this way, I am like most people and do fear changes. People tend to want to stay the same all the time and don't want to have changes, but I also think this is what people will need to learn to overcome. In the future, I'll go to college, will go out to work, and will find someone I love and get married. I anticipate these things coming in the future, but I'm also a bit fear about the changes. This, is what I'll need to overcome.

Is the world Falling Apart?
I'm living in a safe place. There are no wars in Taiwan, at least not for now and there 18 years that I've lived in Taiwan. There are also only little natural disasters in Hsinchu. The earthquake was always more serious in the middle or southern part of Taiwan, and the typhoon was always more serious in the more northern and eastern part. Therefore, I've only seen or heard about the wars and disasters on the television or on the newspaper. Hence, I've never felt that the world is falling apart.
However, I still know that the natural disasters did took away lots of lives. The 921 earthquake, South Asia tsunami, 88 flood, and hurricanes in the US are all examples of natural disasters that caused a lot of death. Many lives are taken away by the natural disasters, but I don't think that people's thoughts are changed as much as it was during the world wars. Wars are human fighting against human, but natural disasters are just human against something that we could never control. This is different, and I don't think it causes the world to fall apart.

How do we measure Progress?
To say the truth, I think advances in technology, increase in total wealth, and greater health and happiness in all people are all good ways to measure the improvement in social progress. I think to measure the progress, it's better to mix or find the average of the three. Out of the three choices, I would say that I think the health and happiness of all people are the most important. The reason that the advances in technology and increase in wealth are important is that they both make people happy. However, since it is hard to measure the happiness of people, I think the best way to measure social progress is through the increase in total wealth. When people have money, they can buy things that they want or go to the doctor when they are sick. People can buy electronic devices to improve their lives and to make themselves happy.
In conclusion, although happiness is the most important thing, it is better to measure the social progress by measuring the increase in total wealth.
In conclusion, although happiness is the most important thing, it is better to measure the social progress by measuring the increase in total wealth.

What can break down Prejudice?
There are always prejudice between Eastern and Western people. Eastern people ought to think that Western people are always tall, strong, and rich. Western people ought to think that Asians are nerds, silent in class, and especially good at math, etc. These are stereotypes which most people fits into, but there are also always a portion of people (which is not a small portion) that doesn't fit into the stereotype. There are always weak or poor Western people, and some Asians are extremely bad with math. Viewing people with prejudice is never a good thing. Every person should try to understand a stranger through communication and their own observations so that people can truly understand each other and that misunderstandings will not happen. People tend to be prejudice on everything. There is a saying that prejudice forms within 7 seconds after one first meet another, and is hard to be changed. I do agree with this saying, but I also believe that prejudice could be broke though communication.
