First of all, Government can appeal to different culture citizen to live together. Thus they could enhance communication with each other.
Secondly, government can host some activities for multiculturalism. So people could better understand different culture when they participate in those activities.
Lastly, teachers and parents can teach kids how live in a multicultural environment and how to respect to others.

Why is multiculturalism such a divisive issue?
Some people believe that votes against bilingual education are evidence of racist attitudes widespread. But the statistics from the polls in 2002 shows that 75 percent of Americans and 77 percent of Canadians thought immigration benefited their coutries, and the 1988 poll indicated that 80 percen of Canadians fight against the way of select immigrants.
So the votes against bilingual education should not be interpreted as evidence of racism.
Difficulties

Different people may have different difficulties when they immigrate to or visit China.
If you are used to living in a European country, I bet you couldn’t accommodate yourself to eat with chopsticks. You might have to spend a long time to learn how to use chopsticks accurately; However, if you are Asian, you might need not to worry about it. What you need to consider is how to accept traditional Chinese culture. Chinese like the atmosphere that is filled with crowded and lively. While in the restaurant, they talk loudly and laugh loudly. You might misunderstand and think it is a symbol of underbred. Actually, it is a part of Chinese culture.
I’m pretty sure people from other countries will have a great impression of Chinese education. Chinese students is fairly busy than students from other countries. They have to spend a lot of time to study. The majority of parents would like to spend the great mass of wages on child support. A lot of kids study more than 12 hours a day. They lose their childhood, don’t they? Because of large population in China, they have to struggle in cutthroat competition.
Otherwise, no matter where you are. you must learn how to respect old people and take care of kids. It is Chinese traditional rule. Everyone lives in China should obey it.
Whether you think there are many rules or not when you get into China, China is a hospitable country. You could experience different culture and fun here.

2. First, health care systems need to finance crisis care or give public primary health care. Second, older people require more services, and the life expectancy rises quickly. Third, we need money to establish some available treatment for patients who need it most.

Summary
February 22, 2010
There are three reasons why medical experts, the centers for Disease control and U.S.government had slower response to AIDS.(medical experts disregard it was a new disease; Center for Disease Control gives a slow reaction; Government feel uncomfortable to talk about behaviors that is associated with the disease.)So the condition of inoperable in unusual health problem had been discovered and named AIDS until 1982. And medical science, scientists and researchers provide basic information about AIDS to public, such as cause, transmission, diagnosis. Between 1984 and 1989, The number of AIDS cases rosed and then fell. And it still cause too many people death.The increasing AIDS infections show that AIDS will become global epidemic at the end of twentieth century. Thus, government contributed billion dollars on AIDS research. And the progress in how to treat and prevent AIDS has promoted after that. In spite of promotion in rearches, The antiviral drugs did not work for every case, and virus change rapidly result in the effective treatment and vaccine wouldn’t come up in the future. It seems that prevention programs are a simply way to prevent people from infecting AIDS. Yet, there are number of factors block the developing of prevention programs. The biggest one is many countries can not finance the high cost for prevention programs. The sencond factor is people feel uncomfortable to speak openly about behaviors that is associated with AIDS.(illegal drug use and homesextual sex) The third factor is many people still erroneous think only homosexual men and illegal-drug users have risk for AIDS. And Experts still think it is hard to hange public attitudes and behaviors associated with AIDS.

summary:
The UK study shows the new gene therapy maybe help people destroy cancer cells without affecting the healthy organs. The technique wraps up genes in microscopic nano-particles that will enclose the cancerous environment and raplace it. This technique may have fewer associated side effects and give potential hope to people with hard-to-treat cancer or inoperable conditions. Athough the human trials will be conducted in two years, it is also an exciting news.
response:
According to CNN, the new technique in gene therapy trial will be conducted in human subjects. but in my opinion, I can not say it works. I did some research when I was in high school. Although mice and man have the same chromosomes and their genes are 99% similar, man and mice have different immune systems. So the outcomes is distinct from one another. As far as I’m concerned, the trial in man still has a long way to go. That is why man are man, mice are mice.
