We live in a dynamic world, and habitats are always undergoing changes at all sorts of levels. However, natural changes usually occur at a slow pace so that impacts on individual species tend to be slight - at least in the short term
When the pace of change is greatly accelerated, there may be no time for individual species to react to new circumstances, and the effects can be disastrous. Briefly, this is the reason that rapid habitat loss is regarded as the chief cause of species endangerment, and there is no force more powerful in this regard than human beings. To some extent, every part of the earth has been affected by human activities, especially during this past century. This applies on virtually every scale, from the loss of microbes in soils that once supported tropical forests, to the extinction of fish and other aquatic species in polluted freshwater habitats, to changes in global climate caused by the release of greenhouse gases. From the perspective of an individual human lifetime, such changes may be hard to detect and their effects on individual species may be hard to predict. But the lesson is clear enough. For example, although many countries have had plans to grow many tropical forests, they are highly susceptible to destruction because the soils in which they grow are poor in available nutrients. Centuries may be required to bring back a forest that was cut down or burnt out in the space of a few years. Many of the world's severely threatened animals and plants live in such forests, and it is certain that huge numbers of them will disappear if present rates of forest loss continue. Habitats in the world are unchangeable and fixedly exist.

Chúng ta sống trong một thế giới năng động, và môi trường sống luôn luôn trải qua những thay đổi ở tất cả các cấp độ. Tuy nhiên, những thay đổi tự nhiên thường xảy ra ở tốc độ chậm để tác động đến từng loài có xu hướng nhỏ - ít nhất là trong ngắn hạn
Khi tốc độ thay đổi được tăng tốc đáng kể, có thể không có thời gian để các loài cá thể phản ứng với hoàn cảnh mới, và các hiệu ứng có thể là thảm họa. Tóm lại, đây là lý do khiến mất môi trường sống nhanh chóng được coi là nguyên nhân chính gây nguy hiểm cho loài, và không có lực lượng nào mạnh hơn trong vấn đề này so với con người. Ở một mức độ nào đó, mọi phần của trái đất đã bị ảnh hưởng bởi các hoạt động của con người, đặc biệt là trong thế kỷ qua. Điều này áp dụng trên hầu hết mọi quy mô, từ việc mất vi khuẩn trong đất đã từng hỗ trợ rừng nhiệt đới, đến sự tuyệt chủng của cá và các loài thủy sinh khác trong môi trường nước ngọt bị ô nhiễm, thay đổi khí hậu toàn cầu gây ra bởi việc thải khí nhà kính. Từ quan điểm của một đời người, những thay đổi như vậy có thể khó phát hiện và ảnh hưởng của chúng đối với từng loài có thể khó dự đoán. Nhưng bài học là đủ rõ ràng. Ví dụ, mặc dù nhiều quốc gia đã có kế hoạch trồng nhiều khu rừng nhiệt đới, chúng rất dễ bị phá hủy bởi vì các loại đất mà chúng phát triển rất nghèo trong các chất dinh dưỡng sẵn có. Nhiều thế kỷ có thể được yêu cầu mang lại một khu rừng bị cắt giảm hoặc bị đốt cháy trong không gian vài năm. Nhiều loài động vật và thực vật bị đe dọa nghiêm trọng trên thế giới sống trong các khu rừng như vậy, và chắc chắn rằng một số lượng lớn chúng sẽ biến mất nếu tỷ lệ mất rừng hiện tại tiếp tục. Môi trường sống trên thế giới là không thể thay đổi và tồn tại cố định.

Women have less leisure time than 15 years ago - as men take more for themselves 

It may not come as a shock to women that when it comes to housework, figures show they are more than pulling their weight. But it may surprise them to find that far from taking on more of the burden, men are spending more time having fun than they were 15 years ago - and shouldering less of the unpaid work. Figures from the Office for National Statistics suggest that the amount of time men spend on leisure activities rose from 42.88 hours in 2000 to 43 hours a week in 2015. Over the same period, the number of leisure hours taken by women dropped - from 39.24 in 2000 to 38.35 in 2015.

The ONS said the data "suggests that there is a growth in inequality between men and women when it comes to taking leisure time”. Men are now taking quite a lot more time each week for leisure and women are taking less compared with 2000. It added: "Leisure time for women could be less than for men because although women are more frequently engaged in part-time work than men, they spend more time completing unpaid work such as household chores and childcare. The hours spent on unpaid work are likely to replace those hours that could have been spent on leisure activities."

An increased care burden could be behind some of the disparity. People in their forties and fifties have become known as the "sandwich generation" who must care for elderly parents while supporting children who are not yet financially independent and may still be living at home.

DỊCH:

 

Interviewer: We have invited some students from Oak Tree School in Happy Valley to this Beyond 2030 forum, and they are going to share with us their vision of the future. Would you like to go first, Phong? 

Phong: I believe the biggest change will take place within the school system. Apart from at school, we will also be learning from places which will give us real-life knowledge and experience, such as at a railway station, in a company, or on a farm.

Mai: I agree. This real-life application of learning will give us a sense of participation, a feeling that we are part of the process.

Interviewer: And what about the role of teachers? 

Phong: Ah, they will be more like facilitators, rather than information providers. 

Interviewer: Fascinating. How else do you see the future, Nguyen?

Nguyen: Well, I think the role of fathers will drastically change.

Interviewer: Oh yes? In what way?

Nguyen: The modern father will not necessarily be the breadwinner of the family. He may be externally employed or he may stay at home to take care of his children. 

Interviewer: And do the housework?

Nguyen:  Yes. It’s work, paid or not, isn’t it? 

Mai: Absolutely. The benefi t will be that children will see their fathers more often and have a closer relationship with them. I don’t see much of my dad, but I love every moment I spend with him. 

Interviewer: Well, we are certainly covering some interesting topics …

Người phỏng vấn: Chúng tôi đã mời vài bạn học sinh đến từ trường Cây Sồi ở Thung lũng Hạnh Phúc đến tham gia diễn đàn Beyond 2030 và họ sẽ chia sẻ với chúng ta tầm nhìn của các em về tương lai. Em sẽ nói đầu tiên nhé, Phong?

Phong: Em tin rằng sự thay đổi lớn nhất sẽ diễn ra bên trong hệ thống giáo dục. Ngoài trường học, chúng ta cũng sẽ học từ những nơi cho chúng ta kiến thức và kinh nghiệm sống thực tế như nhà ga, công ty hoặc ở một nông trại.

Mai: Mình đồng ý. Việc học có sự áp dụng vào cuộc sống thực tế này sẽ cho chúng ta có thấy mình là người trong cuộc, một cảm giác rằng chúng ta là một phần của quá trình.

Người phỏng vấn: Thế còn vai trò của giáo viên thì sao?

Phong: À, họ sẽ giống người cố vấn hơn là người cung cấp thông tin.

Người phỏng vấn: Hấp dẫn đó. Em nhìn thấy tương lai như thế nào nữa, Nguyên?

Nguyên: À, em nghĩ vai trò của người cha sẽ thay đổi mạnh mẽ.

Người phỏng vấn: Ồ thế ư? Bằng cách nào?

Nguyên: Người cha hiện đại sẽ không cần thiết là trụ cột của gia đình, ông ta có thể là người ra ngoài lao động hoặc có thể ở nhà để chăm sóc con cái.

Người phỏng vấn: Và làm việc nhà?

Nguyên: Vâng, đó cũng là công việc, dù có được trả lương hay không, phải không ạ?

Mai: Chắc chắn rồi. Lợi ích có được là trẻ con sẽ được gặp cha của chúng thường xuyên hơn và có mối quan hệ khăng khít với họ hơn. Mình đã không được gặp cha mình nhiều nhưng mình quý mỗi khoảnh khắc ở bên cạnh ông ấy.

Người phỏng vấn: Được rồi, chúng ta chắc chắn sẽ đi qua vài chủ đề hấp dẫn nữa...

Người phỏng vấn: Chúng tôi đã mời một số học sinh từ Trường Oak Tree ở Happy Valley đến diễn đàn Beyond 2030 này và họ sẽ chia sẻ với chúng tôi tầm nhìn về tương lai. Bạn có muốn đi trước không, Phong? 

Phong: Tôi tin rằng sự thay đổi lớn nhất sẽ diễn ra trong hệ thống trường học. Ngoài ở trường, chúng tôi cũng sẽ học hỏi từ những nơi sẽ cung cấp cho chúng tôi kiến ​​thức và kinh nghiệm thực tế, chẳng hạn như tại nhà ga, trong một công ty hoặc trong một trang trại.

Mai: Tôi đồng ý. Ứng dụng học tập thực tế này sẽ cho chúng ta cảm giác tham gia, cảm giác rằng chúng ta là một phần của quá trình.

PV: Còn vai trò của giáo viên thì sao? 

Phong: Ah, họ sẽ giống như người hướng dẫn hơn là nhà cung cấp thông tin. 

Người phỏng vấn: Hấp dẫn. Làm thế nào khác để bạn nhìn thấy tương lai, Nguyễn?

Nguyễn: Chà, tôi nghĩ vai trò của những người cha sẽ thay đổi mạnh mẽ.

Người phỏng vấn: Ồ có? Bằng cách nào?

Nguyễn: Người cha hiện đại sẽ không nhất thiết phải là trụ cột của gia đình. Anh ta có thể làm việc bên ngoài hoặc anh ta có thể ở nhà để chăm sóc con cái. 

Người phỏng vấn: Và làm việc nhà?

Nguyễn: Vâng. Đó là công việc, được trả tiền hay không, phải không? 

Mai: Hoàn toàn đúng. Lợi ích sẽ là trẻ em sẽ nhìn thấy cha của chúng thường xuyên hơn và có mối quan hệ gần gũi hơn với chúng. Tôi không nhìn thấy bố tôi nhiều, nhưng tôi yêu từng khoảnh khắc tôi dành cho ông. 

PV: Chà, chắc chắn chúng tôi đang đề cập đến một số chủ đề thú vị

What is good writing for children?
The children’s publishers will tell you they look for ‘good writing’. What exactly do they mean?

Before you send a story you have written to any publisher at all, your severest critic ought to be you vourself. To have a chance of succeeding in the competitive market of children’s fiction, you should constantly be aware, every single time you sit down at your word-processor, of the need to produce ‘good, original writing’. A difficult task, maybe, but one which hopefully we will help you to achieve.

To begin with, let us try to pin down exactly what publishers mean when they talk about ‘good writing’ for children. A useful starting point would be to take a look at some of the children’s books which won literary prizes last year. Reading these books is one of the easiest and most enjoyable ways of: (a) finding out what individual publishers are publishing at the moment, and (b) learning a few tricks of the trade from well-established professionals. It goes without saying, of course, that slavishly copying the style and subject matter of a successful author is usually a recipe for disaster. Nor should you become downhearted after reading a particularly brilliant piece of work, and miserably think you will never be able to match up to those standards. Remember, overnight success is rare - most successful children’s authors will have struggled long and hard to learn their trade. Read these books as a critic; note down the things you enjoyed or admired, as well as areas where you feel there was possibly room for improvement. After all, nobody is perfect, not even a successful, prize-winning author.

Possibly the toughest challenge is right at the youngest end of the age range - the picture book. The would-be author/ illustrator is attempting to create an exciting story out of the narrow, limited, everyday world of a young child’s experience - not easy at all. The whole storyline has to be strong enough to keep the reader turning the pages, yet simple enough to fit into a few pages. Another problem for the new picture-book author is that it can seem that every subject and every approach has been done to death, with nothing new left to say. Add to this the fact that printing costs are high because of full colour illustrations, which means that the publisher will probably want a text that suits the international market to increase sales, and a novel for ten-year olds, with hardly any pictures at all, starts to look much more inviting.

You would be forgiven for wondering if there are any truly original plots left to impress publishers with. But remember that, in many ways, it is the writer’s own personal style, and intelligent handling of a subject that can change a familiar, overworked plot into something original and fresh. To illustrate this, read The Enchanted Horse by Magdalen Nabb. A young girl called Irina finds an old wooden horse in a junk shop, takes it home and treats it as if it was real. Soon it magically starts to come to life ... Sounds familiar? The magic object that comes alive is a storyline that has been used in hundreds of other children’s stories. So why does it succeed here? The answer is that Magdalen Nabb has created a strong, believable character in the lonely, unhappy heroine Irina, and the descriptions of her relationship with the wooden horse are poetic and touching.

So, to return to the question asked at the beginning: What exactly is ‘good writing’ for children? The answer is that it is writing which is fresh, exciting and unpredictable, and which gives a new and original angle on what might be a well- worn subject. But do not be put off if you feel that you simply cannot match up to all these requirements. While there is obviously no substitute for talent, and the ability to come up with suitable ideas, many of the techniques for improving and polishing your manuscript can be learned.
