This document discusses the causes of poverty in Hong Kong. It identifies two main types of factors that can lead to poverty: personal factors and social factors. Personal factors include health problems, loss of ability to work, and family care responsibilities. Social factors include economic restructuring reducing low-skilled jobs, unemployment or underemployment of low-skilled workers, and marginalized workers facing unstable employment, long hours, low pay, and poor working conditions. The document defines marginal workers as those in low-skilled, undesirable jobs with low wages and lack of protections who experience unemployment or underemployment.

Vocab WS Unit 6
The document is a vocabulary worksheet about political globalization that contains matching and fill-in-the-blank questions. The matching section asks students to match terms like "negotiation", "policies", and "population mobility" with their Chinese translations. The fill-in-the-blank section presumably asks students to complete sentences using vocabulary related to concepts like international cooperation, infectious diseases, and intergovernmental organizations.
Lesson 2 - Is poverty a personal problem? (1D)
This document discusses a role-playing activity about poverty in Hong Kong. It introduces four characters - a single mother, a construction worker, a retired person, and a former factory worker now working as a cleaner - and their reasons for being poor, including personal factors and social factors. It also discusses how the less educated face challenges changing jobs due to lack of qualifications and experience, and how contract/casual staff systems can restrict income, labor protections, and career development, perpetuating poverty.
Lesson 5 - Revision
The document discusses several ways that individuals, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the government can help poor families. Individuals can donate money and resources to poor families. NGOs can provide tutoring services to children in poor families. The government can offer more training courses to people who have low skills and low education levels.
GEOMETRY AROUND US
Geometry is a branch of mathematics concerned with shapes, sizes, and relative positions of figures and objects in space. Some key concepts in geometry include points, lines, planes, angles, and shapes. Geometry has been studied and applied since ancient times, with important developments in geometry made by ancient Greek mathematicians like Thales, Pythagoras, and Euclid. Geometry has many practical applications in fields like construction, engineering, and space exploration.
Lesson 6 - What you should learn?
Economic globalization has led to increased unemployment as multinational corporations seek to reduce costs through international division of labor and moving factories to lower cost locations. While this allows corporations to maximize profits, it has adverse effects on low-skilled and manufacturing workers. Even high-tech and research jobs are outsourced as long as a place can offer higher cost effectiveness. Additionally, globalization increases the threat of unemployment across different job types. Economic interdependence has also grown as globalization supports continuous growth but makes economies more vulnerable to external factors, such as downturns negatively impacting trading partners like Southeast Asian countries experienced after the weak 2001-2002 American economy.
Lesson 3 - Video about the poverty problem in HK
The document discusses poverty issues in Hong Kong based on a video about a poor family. Structural factors like inflation, factories moving to China, and outsourcing contributed to the family's poverty. The young boy in the video likely faced challenges meeting basic needs and participating in school activities due to lack of resources. He took measures like buying cheap food and joining subsidized activities to cope with his poor situation.
Lesson 4 - What are the impacts of poverty & activity 5
The document discusses the impacts of poverty on individuals, society, and across generations. It describes how poverty affects a family of six living in Hong Kong in 200 square feet. The family struggles with limited income, cramped living conditions, and inability to afford extras. The children find free entertainment but lack space for homework. Despite difficulties, the family enjoys strong relationships. Poverty is said to increase societal problems long-term by limiting opportunities and perpetuating hardship across generations through low education and opportunity.
Sexual Education In Greece
The document discusses sexual education projects that can be run in Greek secondary schools. Teachers who are interested in leading such projects must apply for approval from the regional Bureau of Education. The Ministry of Education then officially approves the projects. One type of project that is allowed under "Health Education" is sexual education. However, getting students to participate can be challenging, as discussing sexual topics openly makes some students uncomfortable or giggly at first.

Sexual Education
Comprehensive sexual education programs are more effective than abstinence-only programs at reducing teen pregnancy and STD rates. Abstinence-only programs teach that abstaining from sex is the only way to avoid pregnancy and STDs, and have teens take a "virginity pledge." However, only a third of teens who take the pledge actually abstain from sex. Comprehensive programs teach abstinence as the best option but also educate about contraceptives. Teens receiving comprehensive education are less likely to report unplanned pregnancy, and are more likely to delay sex or have less frequent sexual activity.
Lesson 4 - Allegations against Nike
- Nike has over 700 contract manufacturers in more than 50 countries employing over 500,000 workers who have faced allegations of rights violations since the 1980s.
- Cases from the 1990s in Indonesia, Pakistan, and Vietnam involved wages below minimum, child labor, and toxic working conditions in Nike's supply chain.
- Further allegations in the late 90s/early 2000s included underpayment, overwork, retaliation against unions, and abuse of women workers.

Poverty slideshow
Poverty deprives people of basic needs like food, water, shelter, and clothes. It is caused by a lack of education, natural disasters, lack of money, greed, lack of opportunities, overpopulation, and addictions like drugs and alcohol. The harsh truth is that over 3 billion people live on less than $2.50 a day, 1 in 2 children live in poverty, and 22,000 children die daily due to poverty. Solutions include reducing war, increasing government assistance, and promoting education and opportunities through donations and aid.
social 8th class presentation on women
Women face disadvantages in both the informal and formal sectors in India. In the informal sector, women make up a large portion of domestic workers, agricultural laborers, and construction workers where they face low pay, abuse, and discrimination. They are paid less than men for the same work and expected to do household chores as well. In the formal sector, women have more opportunities due to education but still face challenges like a large wage gap where men earn 30% more, sexual harassment, and societal pressure to prioritize family over career. The document emphasizes appreciating the hard work of women at home by thanking them and helping with chores.

Unemployment refers to people who are willing and able to work but cannot find jobs. There are several types of unemployment, including voluntary unemployment where people choose not to work, and involuntary unemployment where people are unable to find work. Unemployment is measured by calculating the unemployment rate, which is the percentage of the labor force that is unemployed. High unemployment can have economic and social costs, such as lower economic output and increased government spending on unemployment benefits. Governments aim to manage unemployment through economic policies.

Types of unemployment
Unemployment is defined as people who are jobless, actively seeking work and available to take a job. There are several types of unemployment including frictional, structural, cyclical, regional, technological, seasonal, underemployment, voluntary and involuntary. Common causes include a lack of skills, credit, capital, population increases and economic downturns. While governments aim to reduce unemployment through job creation programs, a natural rate of unemployment between 4-6% is expected due to frictional unemployment from job transitions and structural unemployment from skills mismatches.

1. Advancements in transportation and population mobility have allowed infectious diseases to spread rapidly between countries, demonstrating that political issues in one area can affect others.
2. International organizations like the UN and WHO play a vital role in promoting cooperation between countries to control diseases and other global challenges.
3. Due to political globalization, disputes between countries are inevitable but international organizations provide important channels for communication and negotiation to help resolve conflicts peacefully.
2) Political Globalization p.58 & Task 3
International intergovernmental organizations play an important role in addressing global political issues and preventing the spread of infectious diseases across borders. As political and economic ties between countries increase, more international organizations have formed to provide a platform for global policymaking through discussion and negotiation. These organizations contribute to issues like avian influenza by distributing disease information, establishing research networks, and formulating cooperative policies between countries. They have made efforts such as subsidizing poor nations' response efforts, demanding disease reporting, planning early warning systems, stockpiling antiviral drugs, and raising funds for prevention activities.

It focuses on explaining the United Nations (UN) in depth. Key details include that the UN was founded in 1945 after WWII to replace the League of Nations, aims to maintain peace and security between nations and provide a platform for dialogue. It has 192 member states and six principal organs, and is financed by voluntary contributions.
Lesson 14 - A three-level landscape of China
China has a three-level landscape consisting of high, medium, and low elevations. The highest point is Mount Qomolangma at 8,848 meters above sea level, while the lowest point is in the Aydingkol Lake at 155 meters below sea level. The document says goodbye and hopes to see everyone again soon.
Lesson 13 - Activity 2 Q.2,3
China has a three-level landscape of relief from west to east:
1) High plateaus and mountains in the western part of the country.
2) Lower plateaus and basins in the central region.
3) Plains and lowlands in the eastern part.
The major rivers flow from the highlands in the western part of China towards the lowlands and seas in the eastern part, corresponding to the decreasing average height of land from west to east.
Lesson 12 - How to draw a cross section?
This document provides instructions for how to draw a cross section. A cross section shows a cut through an object and tells us the relief or shape and height of the land. The steps guide the reader on how to draw a cross section, which involves cutting through an object and showing the internal structure in a side view.
Lesson 15 - What you should learn?
1. Western multinational corporations spread western culture globally through mass media which increases the influence of western culture worldwide.
2. Companies like McDonald's and Nike help popularize American culture as they expand globally.
3. When cultures mix, new hybrid cultures can emerge as local cultures also influence western culture, such as with Chinese medicine incorporating western research methods.
Lesson 14 - Task 4 Q.3
The document discusses how Hong Kong culture has been influenced by both eastern and western cultures. It analyzes three effects (A, B, C) on Hong Kong's culture and determines that option C best describes Hong Kong today. C states that through mutual influence and integration, a new culture with characteristics of both local and western cultures has emerged. As an example, it notes that Hong Kong slang originated from translating western words, and local cuisine combines Chinese and western cooking methods.
Lesson 13 - The impact of the popularisation of western culture
The document discusses how Western culture has influenced eating habits in Hong Kong. It notes that eating lots of meat and fast food has become popular, which can increase health risks like obesity and diabetes. As Western fast food chains expand globally, people's tastes are becoming more similar as hamburgers and French fries spread. However, cultural exchanges don't always mean local culture disappears entirely - sometimes foreign influences stimulate local culture or the cultures integrate into new hybrid forms.
Lesson 12 - Test Corrections
This document provides instructions for a test corrections lesson and the next steps. Students are asked to bring their worksheets to class and hand in a file by the following Friday.

Fast food accounted for about 10% of all restaurants in Hong Kong and saw a 14% increase in chains between 2001-2003. Hong Kong residents now spend around $1.1 billion HKD annually in fast food, accounting for 20% of the food and beverage industry's total sales.
Lesson 10 - Cultural Globalization (McDonald's)
McDonald's has over 30,000 restaurants in over six continents, opening 1,850 new locations each year. It has expanded globally since opening its first international location in Canada in 1967 and its first Hong Kong restaurant in 1975. Recently, McDonald's launched new promotional campaigns featuring celebrities in commercials broadcast across Asia to target young consumers, changing its marketing strategy from families to youth.

Editor's Notes
- Background In the 1960s and 1970s, labour intersive industries in Hong Kong developed prosperously. Workers with low education and skills also had good prospects. In the 1980s, China carried out economic reforms and many production lines in Hong Kong moved to the mainland. A large number of workers became unemployed. Since 1990s, the service industry and IT industry have developed rapidly. The Hong Kong economy has gradually transformed into a knowledge-based economy. As a result, many workers became long-term unemployed or had a great reduction in income. They have become ‘marginal workers’.
