n Luther, Oliver Cromwell and Napoleon Bonaparte. These epochal figures represented lives hard to imitate, but to be acknowledged as possessing higher authority than mere mortals.
Communist Manifesto. For them, history did nothing, it possessed no immense wealth nor waged battles:“It is man, real, living man who does all that.” And history should be the story of the masses and their record of struggle. As such, it needed to appreciate the economic realities, the social contexts and power relations in which each epoch stood. For:“Men make their own history, but they do not make it just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen by themselves, but under circumstances directly found, given and transmitted from the past.”
This was the tradition which revolutionized our appreciation of the past. In place of Thomas Carlyle, Britain nurtured Christopher Hill, EP Thompson and Eric Hobsbawm. History from below stood alongside biographies of great men. Whole new realms of understanding — from gender to race to cultural studies — were opened up as scholars unpicked the multiplicity of lost societies. And it transformed public history too: downstairs became just as fascinating as upstairs.

而发展中国家担心移民，则通常考虑的是，他们更优秀的人才流入了硅谷，或是发达国家的一些医院和大学。而这些人才正是英国、加拿大、澳大利亚这样的国家需要的，他们通过优待大学生的移民政策来吸引这样的人才。
很多研究发现，发展中国家受过良好教育的人们尤其可能移民。据估计，三分之二受过良好教育的Cape Verdeans都居住在国外。2004年对印度家庭展开了一次大范围调查，询问了他们移居国外的家庭成员情况。调查发现，近40%的移民接受过高等教育，而所有25岁以上的印度人中，这一比例仅为3.3%。这种“人才外流”的现象长期困扰着穷国的政策制定者们。他们担心这会有损经济发展，使得他们丧失亟需的有技能的人才，他们本可在大学里教书，在医院里工作，或是研发出可供生产的新产品。

Dear Sir or Madame,
As one of the regular customers of your online store, I am writing this letter to express my complaint against the flaws in your product—an electronic dictionary I bought in your shop the other day.
The dictionary is supposed to be a favorable tool for my study. Unfortunately, I found that there are several problems. To begin with, when I opened it, I detected that the appearance of it had been scratched. Secondly, I did not find the battery promised in the advertisement posted on the homepage of your shop, which makes me feel that you have not kept your promise. What is worse, some of the keys on the keyboard do not work.
I strongly request that a satisfactory explanation be given and effective measures should be taken to improve your service and the quality of your products. You can either send a new one to me or refund me my money in full.
I am looking forward to your reply at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely yours,
Zhang Wei

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am a loyal customer of your honored web store on Taobao.com. I ordered an electronic dictionary the other day from your store, but upon examination, it was found to be of inferior quality, so I am writing to present you my complaint.
There are several aspects underlying this complaint. On one thing, the electronic dictionary sometimes turns off automatically, which upset me greatly. On the other, there exist many spelling and pronunciation errors, and thus I am misguided frequently.
It’s my sincere hope that you could give me full refund or replace it with a new one. Your kind reply to this letter at your earliest convenience would be very much appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Wei

The table above revealed an overall picture of employment satisfaction. Based upon the data of the table, most people under 40 are unclear or dissatisfied with their job, and 64% of those between 40 to 50, are not satisfied and no one feel satisfied at all. For people over 50, the degree of satisfaction largely exceeds the other groups, amounting to 40%.
Such difference may be rooted in the following reasons. First, middle-aged people face more pressure to support the family, both the children and the senior, so that they neglect to enjoy in work. Second, the senior citizens has developed a lot in personality, so they are more prone to see the optimistic aspects of the work. Last, the conclusion that the current society patterns pose more challenges to the middle aged group under 50.
To sum up, the senior citizens enjoys more content than the young and middle-aged people under 50.

What is clearly presented in the above table is statistics of satisfaction level of the employees in a certain company. Compared with others, those over the age of 50 have the largest percentage of satisfaction level, with 40%. It should be observed that the highest dissatisfaction rate, surprisingly, goes to those between the age of 41 and 50. It is also very interesting to note that the proportions of those who feel hard to say in those under 40 and those over 50 are the same.
What on earth can be learned from this chart? Indeed, with the rise of our age we tend to be more reasonable in our satisfaction level of work. When it comes to the satisfaction rate, people ---especially the middle-aged --- take freedom and feelings for granted. They usually have less burden than those over the age of 41, with children and parents to be supported. For those over the age of 50, burden is falling and thus satisfaction rate is rising.
On one thing, the government, the mass media should take full advantage of their publicity of such a phenomenon. The sooner the public take this issue seriously, the better our future will be. On the other, proper and prompt actions should be launched to develop a healthy way of life and a positive outlook on life. As long as each of us understands this phenomenon, our satisfaction rate and productivity will surely rise.
