In Order for Our Security on The Road.

In Kyoko Altman’s (1997) article, “‘Road Rage’ runs rampant in high-stress U.S. society,” she discusses what the problem is on the road. There are many accidents because of ‘road rage’, and most of these are caused by stupid reasons. Those, who drive very fast and rashly don’t know that it leads to a terrible result. Recently, there are many cars on the road more and more, it’s very stressful and it makes people impolite. Therefore, many states try to solve these problems in many different ways.

Traffic accidents are very serious these days. In order to solve these problems, we should think much of that right now. Education, law, and security are necessary to fight ‘road rage’.

First of all, we need to educate people about driving more seriously. We need to pass two examinations to get the drive license. One is a examination on paper and other one is a practical test. But it’s not enough to drive a car. Driving isn’t only a technical problem, but also a mental problem. We should learn about a good driving attitude and we should be responsible.

Secondly, we should make stricter laws. People who drive a car need to recognize that it’s different from video games or something like that. They must think about the result of their wrong driving. It helps people to drive more seriously, and to drive tensely is good for drivers and others. Whenever people drive, there is no reason to drive recklessly.

Finally, a security system is necessary even though people drive very carefully. Some dangerous situations always exist in the road even though people don’t want that. So we need to prepare something before accidents happen. For example, we should check road conditions, develop traffic signal systems, and make a round of inspection. Somebody should hold on to people’s security because we are imperfect humans.

In conclusion, we should try to prevent accidents with each other. It’s not only our own problem but also it injures other people. It’s a very terrible situation. We should be responsible. We have to drive safety for ourselves and others.

Summary of "College students ..."

According to the article, "College students screaming for stress relief" a number of college students need to cope with stress. They feel lots of stress from exams and they deal with stress by some breakaway like 'primal screams' or nude runs. Recently, it is very important how universities cope with students' stress. For example, New York University offers students some place to talk to a professor about their mind, and a number of colleges and universities provide "midnight breakfast" with students during exams. And it's very helpful to students for study.

What can I cope with stress.

When I feel stress by something like exam or love, I usually drink. Most Koreans like to drink and I like to drink, too. When I drink, I can talk with my friends more honestly and seriously than in ordinary times. Then it makes me feel pleasurable. After I drink, I can sleep as if there is no worry, and I can sleep over until the next afternoon. That is really good for relief. But I know it isn't good for my health. It just affects me for a short-time. I know that I need a hobby which is healthy. I will find that.

Summary of "Cash flow..."

In Ed Ewing and Rachel Jasper's (2005) article "Cash flow not debt causes student stress, scientists told," they explain that university students feel stress, depression and anxiety because of the daily cash flow, because they have not enough money for their needs and they have no experience with money management. In order to solve this problem, first, they need to train for money management before they get into the university. Second, the universities should offer students "early support". Finally, tutors should teach students about how to deal with their finances early on in the first term and emphasize the university's money management services.
