F.2 Weekend Assignment

The education minister is going to cut the secondary schools' class sizes next year, and there will be 36 students instead of 40 students in a class. Well, there are some advantages for carrying out this system, but there are also disadvantages too. Before I knew the actual information about it, I have neutral views with it. But after I know the detailed information, I overthrow the advantages that I've got. And I even think this system is useless.

At first, I think cutting the secondary schools' classes sizes advantages are: the class teachers will have fewer class businesses to handle, fewer students can have better discipline, and the teachers can take care of each student for more time. But, when I know the details of this system, I think these advantages cannot be advantages anymore. It's because these system only decreases a few students from each class, maybe 3 to 5 students. If the education minister wants the system's advantages to be possible, I think they should cut the classes into 20-25 students. And this will lead to have better effects.

But I still defied this system. And that is the disadvantages of it. And the most important reason I defied it is because I cannot meet many friends in these smaller sizes class. In my own mind, during this age, friends are very important for us. Knowledge is even not as important as friendship. If we're having more friends in a class, we can share our feelings with more friends, and that is one of the experience we shall have during these ages. Also, as a student, I think that there aren't any advantages for us. I've mentioned some advantages, but they are just advantages for teachers, not students.

That's why I don't agree with cutting secondary schools' class sizes.

History Assignment

The five qualities of being inventors are: imaginative, creative, sensitive to society's needs, breaking from the old ways, and foresight. I think Methodist College promote only two of these qualities, they are imaginative and creative.

Why I would say that? It's because there are many projects and designing homework in our school. These homeworks require us to have new thoughts. They can lead us to a creative and imaginative person too. For an example, in the Visual Arts lesson, we need to do a job called "VA profolio". This profolio is totally designed by us. We need to write the contents ourselves, draw some illustrations inside the profolio, and set up the typesetting all by ourselves. I admit that this job make me to become more imaginative and creative.

And for the other ones, like sensitive to society's needs, breaking from the old ways, and foresight, I think Methodist College can do none of them. For the first one, as in Methodist College, there is not any subject is about the nowadays society, lots of the students cannot sure what the society was doing or having any problem. For the "breaking from the old ways", I think it's because many of us was influence by the traditional thinkings of the grown-ups. Many grown-ups, have traditional thinkings and do not have enough bravery to brake old things. And the grown-ups are our parents, our parents influence our thoughts too. So, we cannot have brake the old ways and have new ideas too. We shall have our own thoughts and try new things too.

Computer Lesson

In today's computer lesson, I learned Touch Typing. The things that I was typing was the most basic keys on the keyboard. At first, It was because that I've learned typing before, I think that was an easy job. But I was wrong. Although the stuff that I was typing today was the most basic stuff, but I still made a few mistakes too.

I knew that I should be patient on typing. Although they were very easy, but I still need to improve my typing. I found out that I always did the most basic things wrong. I will try to improve myself next time.

What are five basic qualities that a good inventor might have?
It's a difficult work to be a good inventor. Why I will say that? It's because the first, that is the most important condition to become an inventor is to have creative ideas. Inventors' job is to create new things, and that those new things are all design by the inventor himself(herself). If the inventor can't create any ideas about inventions, well, they may not have qualification to become a inventor.

The second thing, is daring to try. If an inventor does not have bravery to attempt new things. He'll never achieve success. Facing failure is a basic step for trying. It's an regular phenomenon for a beginner, or even an expert. Many people, including me, had an experience of fail before. Like playing the electronic games too. Once I failed to pass a stage for several times, but I still kept on trying for a billion times. Finally, I succeed. If you've been try your best to do it, I'm sure there will be repay.

The third thing, is to have curiosity with all kind of things. Like Newton, a famous scientist, he was curious that why an apple will fall down from the tree but not lift up. So, he tried to find out the reason. He was a curious person. But it's all of his curious, he discovered the Force of Gravity. If a person is more curious, he(or she) may discovered more new knowledge that other people may not even attend with. An inventor should have this.

The fourth thing, is to never give up. Some inventors may be afraid of failure, and so they are not dare to try anything. But in other cases, some inventors may be impatience. They can't wait for success, but they still keep on dreaming about they are succeed. That's rubbish. Just dreaming can't help anything. To achieve success, instead of daring to try, is to have pulse that is not to give up easily.

The fifth thing, that is the last thing, is to listen to other peoples opinions and requirement. Inventing things is a kind of helping people, because inventors are inventing for improving the society. They are trying to accomplish the society. To accomplish the society, is to solve all the problems in the nowadays society. In order to know these problems, inventors need to understand different people's opinions and their requirement. If inventors invent new things that is useless for the people, that is just a waste. It's because nobody is in need with that.

Which revolution does Hong Kong need?
I think Hong Kong doesn't need any revolutions at all, but I think Hong Kong is going on with the Industrial Revolution in nowadays.
Why I will say Hong Kong is in Industrial Revolution? In fact, it’s because Industrial Revolution was being continued from the 19th century to nowadays. There are not many farms or hand making workshops in Hong Kong. Well you may find a number of them, but I prefer there will just be a little. Most of the goods are made with cheap materials and in large quantities by machines of factory.
Don’t you agree with this? If Hong Kong isn’t in Industrial Revolution, I think the production of goods in Hong Kong will turn into the speed of dead slow. But nowadays most of the Hong Kong people care about efficiency more than anything else. So Industrial Revolution is very important in Hong Kong.
In my own opinion, I think the Industrial Revolution in Hong Kong is very important to me too. Take an example, I need to have stationeries for going to school. If there's no factories, no machines, workers of Hong Kong will just make the stationeries by their hands. And then the making speed will be very slow, the supply of stationeries will increase. Or even, maybe, there will be a stationery panic in Hong Kong.
And now, let me explain why Hong Kong doesn't need other revolutions.
Hong Kong doesn't need the American Revolution, because Hong Kong people don't have any discontent with our government. The Hong Kong Government doesn't set any unfair rules, or compelled us to pay a large amount of tax. In fact there are some people discontent with The Hong Kong government too, but the number of people that is discontent are fewer, and there aren't as discontent as the 13 Colonies.
Hong Kong doesn't need the French Revolution, because there aren't any social Inequality in the Hong Kong government. As I had mentioned in the comparison last time, in Hong Kong, everyone have to go to work, but all of them can have leisure time for relax. That's fair. Also, our government doesn't face any financial crisis, because Hong Kong doesn't fight with any other countries, or cities. We are living peacefully in Hong Kong. The last thing is that, the government official doesn't rule us badly and our government isn't corrupt.
Hong Kong doesn't need the Cultural Revolution, either. I think the China doesn't want to lost Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, because the development of Hong Kong is prosperous, it may help to make China become a popular country too. Will China abandon Hong Kong? I think they'll never. And talking back to Hong Kong, Hong Kong has no reason to depart from China too. So Cultural Revolution will never happen on Hong Kong too.
