I would like to work at ECOSOC as UN member!

Becouse, ECOSOC is promoting higher standards of living, full employment, and economic and social progress.
When I was pupil, I was interested in living in the world. I found there are a lot of people who
can not eat meal, drink water and do not have house!
If I will work at ECOSOC, a lot of people may come to be happy!!




I enjoyed this class! thank you susan teacher and everyone!!
see you

work place questionairre

my score..

Your score is 55 on a scale of 0 to 100 = Preference for Need for Certainty
Your scores indicate that you have a moderate Need for Certainty and might prefer job security to a more entrepreneurial job opportunity. In countries/cultures with a Need for Certainty, organizations have a preference for strong codes of behaviors and management practices and tolerate less deviation from them; they tend to support their employees on the job. If you work in countries such as Sweden, Denmark, or the United States, where there is a higher Tolerance for Ambiguity, you might react by seeking out situations in which there is a higher level of job security and loyalty to the organization is rewarded. In countries/cultures with a Tolerance for Ambiguity, conflict in organizations is perceived as natural, and rules may be broken for pragmatic reasons. You might feel yourself under attack if the level of conflict rose above your threshold.
The countries you requested are listed below. The numbers in parentheses refer to the country scores as listed by Professor Geert Hofstede in his book Culture's Consequences:
United Kingdom (35) Tolerance for Ambiguity, a moderate preference for an entrepreneurial environment which is less bound by rules and regulations
Japan (92) Need for Certainty, a strong preference for an environment that is more structure-oriented, and where rules, roles and management practices are clear and unambiguous

Lesson 7 Names and Addresses
1.Are feelings emotions and facial expressions universal across borders, happy, sad, etc..?I think feelings emotions and facial expressions are the same all over the world.But American or British people are more expressive countenance than Japanese people. 2. Try to name as many feelings as possible in Japanese. ( 10 minimum) Now write the English translation.・幸せ     happy ・不気味   scaring・歯痒い   get impatient   ・心細い   feel lonely・気楽 comfort            ・もどかしい frustrating ・和やか    amiable and relaxed   ・面白い    interesting・にこやか genially           ・不安 worry3. Are there any feelings in Japanese that cannot be translated into English?I think "SHINNKIKUSAI" is one of cannot be translated feelings into English. This mean is exacting, uncertainry and chafe, and make one feel heavy-hearted.
