Simple Process, but Great Value

 

             Parents, clean water and education. What do they have in common? They are what most of us just take for granted. In addition, there is one more important thing. Oxygen. We are unable to live a sing day without oxygen, but we do not realize the value of it. We do not even know how our body receives it. So, let's take this opportunity to check out how the human respiratory system works. It is simple.

 

             First, oxygen enters our body through the mouth and the nose. The hairs in our nose catch dust in the air when we take a breath. What is more, the nose warms up the oxygen and makes it moist. If the nose does not work well, cold air comes into and hurts our respiratory organs. Next, the oxygen is supposed to meet voice box. Voice box is kind of a gate to our body. When the oxygen comes in, it opens.

 

             Then the oxygen travels through windpipe, which is like a passage led to the lungs. On the surface of the windpipe, there are downy hairs which are called ciliation. They function to filter out dust particles or impurities. The windpipe is divided into two bronchial tubes. After passing through two bronchi, the oxygen enters the lungs, which hang at the end of the bronchi.

 

             As the nose and windpipe work, a complex process occurs in our lungs. We have two lungs. The lungs are composed of about 0.3 billion of air sacs and each air sac are covered with blood vessel. Between air sacs and blood vessel, the exchange of air takes place. The oxygen gets absorbed into blood. At the same time, the carbon dioxide, which is emitted by the tissues, is released into our lungs. The reason we breathe out is to get ride of the carbon dioxide.

 

             Once the oxygen comes into our body, many processes are required in the following order: nose, voice box, windpipe, bronchial tubes and lungs. It is easy to understand how our respiratory system works. We inhale to get oxygen and exhale to expel carbon dioxide. But, please remember one thing. This simple process makes us live.

 

Yoon JinSoo p58, five paragraphs essay

 

Unpredictable, Powerful, Horrible disaster.

  

 

"A swarm of snakes! I don't know how many…. There is too many!!"

   This was a notified call in China. Many people call the 911 because of a sudden

appeared herd of snakes. Scientists and media gave attention to this phenomenon,

Chinese were afraid  about this bode ill. They worried about the Baekdu mountain.

Actually, there were few signs of eruption. Many scientists concerned about eruption

of the Baekdu mountain could be horrible disaster. Like this, active of a volcano can

cause huge damages. Then, what is the cause of volcano eruption and what kind of

damages can be exist?

 

    First, we have to know about cause of volcano eruption. Inside of the earth is

very hot. The mantle, just below the crust of the earth, can melt irons and rock.

Temperature of the mantle is over 1000 degrees. Volcano is erupted by this hot

mantle. Mantle makes 'Lava' by melting some rocks and part of crust. Lava

contains lots of gas so it is lighter than crust and has property of rise. For this

reason, lava melts crust and climbs up steady. Finally, when lava comes up a lot

and crust is not enough to bear pressure, land splits and volcano erupts. This is

a volcano eruption

 

   During these phenomenons happen, some signs are appeared. First thing

is earthquake. Moving of lava cause frequent earthquakes. Earthquakes occur

more often by lava moves closer with surface of crust, so it cause second sign

of eruption, rockslide. Then, land billows and temperature of surface comes up.

Usually many plants and animals die and lots of steam is appeared because of

heat. Last, when eruption approaches, water at the top of volcano is boiled

and volcanic gas is spurted out.

 

   After erupting, people have to be carful about somethings. They are magma,

volcanic gas and pyroclastic materials. Volcanic gas will attack first. It contains

some bad substances like carbon dioxide, sulfur. So it can suffocate many

people. Volcanic gas also contains lots of steam and causes heavy rain. Next

 things are pyroclastic materials. These are burning rocks and stones that poped

up by high pressure. Speed of these is over 300km/h and temperature is about

700 degree. People can get burn though they stay away from these and some

of these explode when they fall down. Last thing is magma. Magma is hot liquid

so it burns everything by flowing on land.

 

  Many people are worrying about destructive force of volcano eruption.

Besides, many scientists predict that scale of eruption Baekdu mountain will be

over 10 times in Island volcano eruption. Of course, we can't estimate time and

scale of eruption exactly, but some signs are observed. So we have to take our

eyes on it and prepare for unpredictable happens.

Family Memorial Service Held Sincerely

A process essay about the stages of a holiday (First draft)

 

 

How can we meet our precious family members, who already passed away? It is the very family memorial service. Every year, on that day when they had died, the family and close relatives meet together. And we talk about the dead, seeing old family album or eating food they loved. Sharing memories about them, we meet them again. Family memorial service, hardly disappearing to date, is one of the most important family events.

In the past, ancestral rites were very influenced by Confucian culture and followed the normal procedure. Ancestral rites at home only were conducted only for close family ancestors such as from a father to a grandfather of a grandfather. From three days before the rite date, the master of rite had to be prudent in his conduct and didn't visit neighbors having something unpleasant. Meanwhile, the rites for distant ancestors, which are called seasonal rites, were held at the family gravesite in October of the lunar calendar. The modernization of society, however, was signaling many changes in family memorial service.

Nowadays, ancestral rites become more informal and various according to the religion or customs of family. Also, people hold a service just for very close family ancestors. How about my family's memorial service? It is for my father-in-law and grandparents-in-law, and conducted at my house which the master of rite lives in. On the day of rite, family and close relatives come together as early as possible. And then women make food for rites and men clean the house. The service begins round about 10 at night. Usually men light incense and offer wine before the rites table, and then all members make a deep bow. After the service, people eat food on the table and go back home.

In all ages, what matters in the rites is content, not form. As it were, sincere mind not procedure. Family memorial service, as it were, makes us remember the dead and reminds us of our root. Also, preparing the family event together, people can understand better each other. Furthermore, they can let out unpleasant feelings among themselves. In the other hand, children meet close family ancestors, who they have never met, through old photos and stories about the dead. This exiting experience makes children realize the value of blood line.

At present, family memorial service is much simpler and more various than past. At all cases, however, the most crucial thing is mind. Maybe modern people, especially youths, could like holidays such as valentine day, Christmas, or Children's day etc. rather than family memorial service. But most of all, we could realize and keep our identity through the rites which remember our family ancestors. That is why family memorial service is meaningful and valuable in our lives.

A boy having chosen asceticism

 

           A boy was born in April 8th, BC543 by the lunar calender. His father was a king of ancient kingdom in Kapilavastu of Nepal. He was a part of the royal family but, in 29 years old, chose to leave his home and all other things to realize the truth. He once practiced asceticism but realize it's not right way for attaining enlightenment. He found a new way and eventually reached the state of nirvana. He is the Buddha.

         Many Buddhists regard the Buddha's Birthday as the most important festival. They designate April 8th (by the lunar calender) as a holiday to commemorate the day, enlightenment and his death. And they show their dedication by visiting a Buddhist temple, praying with their utmost sincerity throughout the day.

        I'm not Buddhist but, on the day, go to a temple to worship with my parents, Buddhists. Most temples prepare the biggest event with exerting themselves to the utmost. For example, monks hang out colorful lanterns and festoon streets as well as every temple. The lanterns' design is a lotus. A lotus and candle represent the blossoming of wisdom and enlightenment. Its beauty is second to no other ceremony.

        One of the my favorite events is that they serve many Buddhist and other guests as a delicious traditional meal, steamed rice cake garnished with black adzuki beans, and all kind of vegetables. Frankly speaking, many non-believers including me go to a temple, in the day, to eat them free of charge.

        Although I'm not a Buddhist, I look forward to the holiday. Extraordinary, spectacular but serene sights make me peaceful and touched. Besides, it provides an opportunity for not only Buddhists but also non-believers to think the Buddha and nirvana.
