CHINA-PAKISTAN ECONOMIC CORRIDOR
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a framework for infrastructure development and economic cooperation between China and Pakistan. It aims to improve connectivity between China's Xinjiang province and Pakistan's Gwadar Port through transport infrastructure, energy projects, and special economic zones. CPEC will upgrade the Karakoram Highway and construct new roads, railways, and pipelines to facilitate trade and reduce costs. It also involves developing Gwadar Port to boost trade and provide China with improved access to the Indian Ocean. CPEC is expected to significantly increase bilateral trade and investment, promote regional development and stability, and benefit other countries in the region through expanded connectivity and trade routes.
Cpec
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is a $46 billion investment program that aims to expand infrastructure and deepen economic ties between China and Pakistan. It includes projects to upgrade roads and railways, build energy projects like wind farms and coal plants, and develop the port of Gwadar. CPEC is expected to significantly boost Pakistan's economy and transform it into a regional economic hub. However, security for Chinese workers remains a challenge given regional instability, and the project faces objections from India due to the portion passing through Pakistani-controlled Kashmir.
Pakistan China Economic Corridor

The objectives of the PCEC include increasing trade, developing western China and Pakistan's less developed regions, and countering Indian influence in the region. While the route is controversial due to disagreements over an eastern vs western path, the PCEC is expected to significantly boost economic growth and development in both countries.

Happiness at Work
It's obvious that happiness plays a key role in our lives. A study of over 250,000 people found that happiness leads to many positive benefits, including: higher income, more productivity, higher energy, better relationships, and better health.
Surprisingly, it's not success that causes happiness, but being happy that tends to lead to success. Studies have identified three common factors that can increase our happiness at work—and in life.
Autonomy
Employees with autonomy—whether managing their own time or deciding what they work on and when—have greater job satisfaction and report more fulfilling lives.
People with high income but little autonomy are usually much less happy than people with low income but control over what they do.
Finding ways to control your work with time-management skills and productivity tools can bring peace to your schedule and happiness to your job.
Purpose
We want to feel that we matter and that we make a difference. Data from 11,000 U.S. workers showed that the strongest predictor of meaningfulness at work was the belief that the job had a positive impact on others.
Finding meaning in what you do gives longterm inner satisfaction.
Mastery
One common habit of people who are happy at work is that they identify their strengths and skills and are committed to continuously improving as a lifetime goal.
Acquiring a new skill or improving one you already have is easier than ever thanks to on-demand elearning sites. For example, you can learn: software, leadership, finance, and more whenever and wherever you like and learn from top instructors who meet you where you’re at—beginner, advanced, or anywhere in between—to boost your confidence, keep you happy, and get the job done!
lynda.com and other elearning platforms aid mastery by reproducing the best teacher experiences. Great teachers offer knowledge, but also much more: motivation, confidence, and a boost of positivity—all of which really make learning stick!

I need to see only your responses, which can be sent by email to [email protected] no later than Monday, December 14th, at midnight.
Part One: Close Reading (60 pts.)
Note: Don’t be thrown by the length of these instructions. I’m just trying to give you some good strategies for close reading. You might use some of these for your major essay draft, in fact. I would prefer that you do your work on this exam independently. You should not have to use outside, secondary sources on this exam, although dictionaries such as the OED online (available as a database through our library) may help you to clarify certain word usages. My expectation is that you will generally be able to draw from the experience you have had thus far as a reader and writer in the course. Perhaps to gain some context for each passage, you may want to try to find its original placement on course Salon. You could also return and refer to previous postings and annotations of your own and others (properly cited as “(Johnson RR3)”, “(Jones GR4)”), or (“Jackson Annotation”), though that is by no means a requirement.
You are being asked to perform a “close reading” of each passage below. First, try to keep the following analytical moves in mind as you take notes on each passage:
· suspend judgment (understand before you judge);
· define significant parts and how they’re related;
· look for patterns of repetition and contrast and anomaly;
· make the implicit explicit (convert to direct statement meanings that are suggested indirectly);
· keep reformulating questions and explanations.
(Rosenwasser and Stephen, Writing Analytically, p. 41)
Consider another set of general questions as you continue to think about each passage closely:
· The question of evidence, or "How do we know what we know?"
· The question of viewpoint in all its multiplicity, or "Who's speaking?"
· The search for connection and patterns, or "What causes what?"
· Supposition, or "How might things have been different?"
· Why any of it matters, or "Who cares?"
(Debbie Meier, “Habits of Mind”)
Return to the Reader’s Toolkit on the course wiki for any other techniques (besides the two above) that seem appropriate to the task of close reading of a short to mid-length passage.
After you have thoroughly annotated these passages to your satisfaction, convert your notes into a response in sentences and paragraphs. Address both form (style, structure, genre, voice, attitude toward audience and subject, etc.) and content (what's actually being said; how the substance of the passage relate ...
Messages of hope
" The Lord shall count, when He writeth up the people, that
this man was born in Zion." — Ps. lxxxvii. 6.
I understand the meaning of the passage to
be that the anniversaries of the future will be
held for the righteous. We observe at present
the anniversaries of the intellectually great — of
the poet, of the statesman, of the distinguished
general, of the scientific discoverer. But, without
disparaging these, the psalmist looks forward to a
time when the birthdays observed will be on the
ground of goodness. We hold the natal days of
the heroes of history. What a surprise it would
create if it were to be announced that a com
memorative service was to be held to keep the
centenary of some humble woman historically
unknown !

Messages of hope
PREFATORY NOTE.
Some ten or twelve of the brief treatises
embodied in this book have already appeared in
the pages of The Christian World. The remainder,
on the author's death, existed only in the blind-
type characters which constituted his own peculiar
" Braille." His secretary, however, has contrived
to render this MS. into ordinary copy, word for
word; and, at the publishers' request, the dis-
courses are here offered in collective form. They
represent some of the ripest fruit of the author's
intellect, as they are largely the product of his
latest hours ; should any one " Message " bring
" Hope " to the weary and heavy-laden, George
Matheson's latest labours will not have been in
vain.
From pride to humility
The document discusses pride and why God hates it. It defines pride as excessive self-esteem or conceit. Bible verses are presented that show God opposes the proud and favors the humble. Pride is said to be satanic as it was the sin of Lucifer. Additional reasons given for why God hates pride include that it spawns prayerlessness, brings conflict, results in gossip, makes false boasts, is deceptive, brings shame, and precedes falls. The conclusion is that pride opposes God's lordship and leads to death. Forms of pride are outlined as self-admiration, self-aggrandizement, self-attention, self-justification, self-sufficiency, self-
Laughter can be paradoxical
It seems that laughter can be both right and wrong, and it can be a challenge to know which is right at any time. It seems that you can laugh and be sad at the same time.
Poems notes 2nd Year English Federal Board/KPK
The document provides analysis and context for the poem "The Blades of Grass" by Stephen Crane. It summarizes the poem in two paragraphs:
1) The poem depicts blades of grass standing before God on Judgment Day, with most proudly recounting their good deeds. However, one blade stands ashamed, unable to recall its deeds. When God asks it, it says it only remembers any bad deeds. God is pleased by its humility and calls it the best blade.
2) The analysis explains the poem's message that God favors humility over pride, and repentance over boasting. It uses the blades of grass to illustrate how we should feel ashamed of our faults rather than proud of virtues.

Habitudes Calcutta Paradox Image
The document discusses the concept of humility in leadership known as the Calcutta Paradox. It notes that humility is magnetic for leaders, as when they understate their value, others are drawn to them, but when they overstate it, others are repelled. It uses the examples of Mother Teresa and John the Baptist to illustrate humble leadership. The document contrasts the results of pride versus humility, and provides signs to distinguish the two. It emphasizes that humility involves having an accurate view of oneself and focusing on others' potential rather than failures.
24th november 2015 disappointment with god
While it is natural to feel disappointment when our hopes are not met or when we face difficulties, true disappointment is with ourselves rather than God. God's plans are higher than our own and we often fail to see how He is working for our ultimate good. As Christians, any disappointment we feel in God should only be temporary, as we must trust in His unchanging character of love, mercy, faithfulness and wisdom. Through faith, as Paul demonstrated, we can maintain inner contentment regardless of outward circumstances.
Poems notes 2nd Year English Federal Board/KPK
God asks the blades of grass what good deeds they had done. Most blades eagerly recount their merits but one blade stays behind, ashamed. When God asks this blade what it had done, it replies it does not remember any good deeds and only has bitter memories of its bad actions. God is pleased with the blade's humility and honesty, saying it is the best of all the blades. The poem promotes being humble rather than proud of good deeds, and honest about shortcomings. It suggests God prefers repentance and honesty over boasting.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

Being Positive
- 1. The Art of Being Positive CLICK TO ADVANCE SLIDES ♫ Turn on your speakers! Be Happy! “ An optimist sees an opportunity in every calamity; a pessimist sees a calamity in every opportunity.” --Sir Winston Churchill
- 2. Talk happiness. The world is sad enough without your woes. No path is wholly rough; look for the places that are smooth and clear, and speak of those, to rest the weary ear, Of those so hurt by continuous strain of human discontent and grief and pain.
- 3. Talk faith. The world is better off without your uttered ignorance and morbid doubt. If you have faith in God, or Man, or self, say so. If not, push back upon the shelf of silence all your thoughts, till faith shall come; No one will grieve because your lips are dumb.
- 4. Talk health. The dreary, never-changing tale of mortal maladies is worn and stale. You cannot charm, or interest, or please by harping on that minor chord--disease. Say you are well, or all is well with you, and God shall hear your words and make them true. --Ella Wheeler Wilcox
- 5. Keep looking up; remember there is only mud under your feet. Cheerfulness is what greases the axles of the world. Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us, or we find it not. --Ralph Waldo Emerson God has two dwellings: one in Heaven and the other in a thankful heart. --Izaak Walton (1593-1683) “ When we know that everything has two sides, let us look at the bright side only.” --Mahatma Gandhi
- 6. We are often discontented and much dissatisfied That our wish for recognition has not been gratified. We feel that we've been cheated in beauty, charm, and brains, And we dwell upon our "losses", forgetting all our "gains." The qualities we think we lack make us miserable inside, As we brood on supposed "deficits" as seen by selfish pride. Are You Dissatisfied with Yourself?
- 7. We begin to harbor hatred and envy fills our heart That we do not possess the things that make others "seem so smart." And in our condemnation of the traits that we possess, We magnify our painful plight, sinking deeper in distress. Oh, Lord, please do forgive us for vanity and pride, For desiring to please the eye of man and not You Who sees inside! Little do we realize how contented we would be If we knew that we are beautiful when our hearts are touched by Thee! --Author Unknown
- 8. Thanks for Reading & Watching to the End!
