Organ donation

The final group talk about whether donate the organ from their son from parents point of view. They take two parents who lose their son from a car accident for example, and the two boys became vegetable people, one mother is willing to donate organ for other people who need, another father is waiting for hope for his son.

The background music is comfortable to hear, and I love the sound effect, it makes this serious show more funny. When they said about death, they immediately played the exaggerate sound. This group member all have beautiful pronounce, so I can hear what they say clearly. Moreover, the story is also dramatic just as a good story, it just like a broadcasting story. So I enjoy listening what the story. The pacing is good. And the music they play is also wonderful , it makes me relax. The name of show filled with literary atmosphere ,"body code" is a suitable name for this show.


On my point of view, organ donation is a need, because there are many people who lack of healthy organ and trying very hard to live, if we can donate our healthy organ for other people to live a peaceful life, why not? We are live a happiness life, but some other place have many people who suffering from a difficult life, if someday we die, donating our organ to help others is a good idea.

Working mother

1. What is the main message of Group 7's podcast topic?

From working mother's point of view to talk their life. The working mother's life and how is the feel of being a working mother.

2. Did their show provide solutions to the problem? What are they?

Yes , this is our show , we provide some suggestion of working mother, because the most important problem of working mother is lack of time to accompany with their family. So the solution is keeping care about their family, and pay more attention on family rather than work.

The process of recording this show is interesting and difficult, why I think it is interesting? During the time of we record, someone next to our room farted too loud to record, so we stop and try it again. We record it many times, some problems such as the background music is not suitable or the music covered our sound, we had to record again and again. But after our recording is done, we feel not only release but also sense of confident, we learned a lot from this process. In order to make more different sound effect, I sing a solo music"new soul",and I also practice sing this song at home many times, because I want to represent the best one for this show, finally this show is perfectly done. The pronounce of the host are beautiful and lovely, I enjoy their small drama. And thanks for our group member's hard work and cooperation, it makes our show become attractive and wonderful. Although there are still other group did better than us, but I still like our own show.

4. What do you think?

4.1 What is your view of women's and men's roles?

We are the same, and we should also take our kids and work.

4.2 State an opposite or different idea for each of the ideas below.

3. Men are natural leaders.

Opposite idea:

I do not agree with this idea, we know there are more women lead our society than men, the time is change now, so it is women's time. Men is leader before, but if you observe this society and people who around you, you can see many people on the top degree are women. But mother's love is an important element for children, still, man and woman are different in thinking and sensitive, it can't substitude.

Capital punishment

1. What is the main message of Group 6's podcast topic?

This topic is talk about death penalty. Whether to abolish death penalty or not. They give a example of a son who killed his father to protect his mother.

2. Did their show provide solutions to the problem? What are they?

Actually, I didn't hear what solution they provided. Maybe they forget to refer solutions.

3. Comment on the group's podcast.

I don't know why the voice was so unclear, I can hardly hear what they talk, sometimes the voice was too load but sometimes small. Maybe the problem is their recording equipment. And the sound is nearly covering their sound. Because the show is too noisy, so I can't keep my concentrate very well, I loss a lot of the part they've talk. However, I do hear the story of a son killing his father in order to protect his mom. So, some part of the recording is clear, and other part maybe not clear enough.

3.5 If Group 6 is given the chance to do another presentation, what would you suggest members of Group 3 to do to make their presentation better?

Change their music or use another better recording equipment for your show. And after they had recorded their show, please remember to check and listen twice, to make some certain changes. Pay attention to the music and the voice, if it covered their voice, just try again and again, because our group met this problems before, so we change our background music.

4. What do you think?

4.1 In which situations or crime committed do you think it is OK to use death penalty?

It depends on the condition, it is very hard to say. Sometimes people are very kind to forgive what others done for ourselves, but sometimes the crime is too heavy to forgive, if someone kill my relatives, it is very difficult to poor this person but hate him. So I think death penalty is necessary, however, there are many cases differently, it need to change a lot. If the case is just like the show group 6, maybe we don't have to use death penalty.

4.2 Do you agree that if you kill someone, you have to die, too? Or do you agree that capital punishment is wrong because it is another form of killing?

The show is easy to understand, because it looks like a real show.


3.5 If Group 5 is given the chance to do another presentation, what would you suggest members of Group 3 to do to make their presentation better?

Sometimes one of the host look his draft, so he put his head down. I think if he would always look the camera and make his eye sight naturally, that's will better. But, frankly speaking, the show all I like, it just a little problem, not affecting the show very much.

I like this show because the show just like a midnight broadcasting show. They played a comfortable music and it correspondent to their issue. The music didn't bother their voice, but the music make sense to the topic. And I like the cute tone of the host. And many of the guests are showing a beautiful tone and clear voice to express what they say. There are just one guest have to do a problem, the problem is her voice are too flat, I don't feel any emotion in her voice.
And I like to listen to people's story, especially love story, so it add this show more splendid.
The music mixtured with their voice is very good, the volume is exactly right.

You should add more emotion to this show, and your show will better.

Use the any of the following phrases when you compose your blog entry:

Of course they can be jsut friends. I have many boy who are just my best friends, and we don't have this romance feeling between us. And I believe we can't get together, we just like friends or just family love.

4.2 Looking at the issue

1. What is your best friend like? Use three adjectives. For example, tall, kind, talkative.

She is a attentive friend who always care for what I do and help me because I sometimes confused a lot. When I did something wrong, she will give me a best suggestion to make me improve. She is very kind to forgive what I did wrong to her. But sometimes she was a little bit pessismistic.

2. Why is that person your best friend?

Because she understand me, she always know what I want to do. When I feel sad, she will listen to me and comfort me. We also get toghter everytime and we often go out to have fun. And the most importantly is she won't hurt me, she value me a lot.



3. Is your best friend a man or a woman?

One of is a woman and the other is a man. They are both my good friends.

4. Losing a friend or lover is sometimes painful to bear. What would you suggest people who have lost a friend or lover to do in order to ease the pain? What do you think they should or should not do?

When you lose your friend, it dosen't mean you losing this friend forever, one day, when the time goes on, you can still talk with them, but maybe they are not best friend any more.

You can find another friend who care about you and stand by you, the one surely comfort you and accompany with you, when this hard time passed, this one can be your best friend.

If you lose your lover, I bet your friends will certainly help you to forget this pain.

Traffic jam comment

They talk about the Transportation and traffic in Kaoushing from the foreigners view.

2. Did their show provide solutions to the problem? What are they?

Their solution is to recommend the government to make our transformation better and design a better line for bus.

3. Comment on the group's podcast.


This show is full of surprising , the first image make me think of the travel channel, it shows just like that way, so I think this show is very creative. I don't have to mention about their English ability, they can totally express themselves very well, the speed, the tone and the voice. What I favorite place is they go to MRT to make their film. I love their director, how creative are they, they design the real characters, and somewhere make me laugh. I enjoy what they take, the real actors, the real place. The host hosts the show is very smooth, and she didn't feel nervous at all, the smile make her more energetic. The great show, I really like it. But there are still some problems, sometimes their voice are too small, the quality of recording equipment isn't very well. So that I can't listen clearly and sometimes the voice was disapeared.

4. What do you think?

4.1 What do you think about the transportation problem in Kaohsiung? If you were to offer a solution for the Kaohsiung City government to implement to solve the problem, what would it be and why?

Maybe I live in Chiayi too long, I don't stand this traffic jam well enough. The vehicle in Kaohsiung are too many, there are one car accident happening nearly once a week. The roal is too crowded, and the distance between car or scooter is too tight. Driving your car in Kaohsiung must have to be very carefully, because the car hit others scooter is quite easy. I had seen lots of this kind of accident before in the city.

I will suggest the government don't separate cars and scooters, the scooters are too crowded to drive well, government should protect driver's safe, to design the better way to to.
Therefore, I recommend the government make quest for people to obey some rules, such as the distance shouldn't be too close. I wish the government can really notice the life of people, I don't want to see car accident again. The car accident really seldom happened in ChiaYi city, to make our life safety is the responsibility of our government.
