I am sure that all the teenagers among the world love to watch animations, it is the nature of the young. The interesting characters, exciting story and complex relationships, these attractive features let almost whole world pay their attention to it. Among all kinds of animations, the Japanese animation is the most successful one.
The American animation started since 1920s and its representative is that famous mouse. The American animation affected a whole generation and its status is used to be thought as unchallengeable. However, just 20 years passed, Japanese animation showed its great attraction. At the beginning, the first few products had shown the great success, but it still cannot challenge the position of that famous mouse. After a 10-year struggle and explore, Japanese animation get a great development in all parts of it, the music, the picture, the total effect…., everything seems perfect. At this time, a master of animation who is respect by the whole world comes. He is Hayao Miyazaki, a man that changes the position of Japanese animation and American animation. It was his movies that put Japanese animation onto the international stage of the first time and soon affect another whole generation.
Nowadays, there are various kinds of Japanese animations on the market. Over 100 works, the amount of products are unprecedented. Other products followed by animation also get a great success. It is said that the money comes from animations takes 3 percent of the whole Japanese GDP.
So why people love Japanese animations so much that even the most racial anti-Japanese people from China want to know something about them or even try to watch them? I think it is because Japanese animations have already ripe; they can attract most of the people where other animations ignored. For example, I grow up with Chinese animations and I enjoy them very much when I was in kindergarten. However, after I and no longer a little kid and I began to have my own ideas, Chinese animations no longer attract me. At this time, the more interesting Japanese animations fit my demand. American animation is popular because of its pioneer, after more than half a century, people lost their interest. Japanese animation can figure out a brand new style, that is why it can win.
However, everything has to develop continuously, whenever it cannot fit the time, it will be sifted out. This is an eternal truth.

Democracy creates stability of a society
Democracy is a social system that most of the countries today agree with and democracy is the sign of civilization, in most people’s opinion. In today’s world, only two countries, Myanmar and Saudi Arabia are still not in the democracy system.
How come that democracy is so wide spread? There must be some reasons and in my opinion, "Democracy creates stability in a society." may be one of the good reasons.
Democracy means it depends on people, government represent people's rights. The harmonious of members of the country decide whether this country is stable. If all the country’s member can work and fight together, this country is unbreakable.
However, there is always shadow behind the brightness and sometimes, the shadow seems to be better and stronger than the brightness.
The opposite of democracy is dictatorship. It is most unacceptable one among whole human beings. The infamous events of the dictators tell us that democracy creates stability in a society in an opposite way. Perhaps the most infamous dictator is Adolf Hitler. In the control of him, Germans fall in a fanatical belief of their race and the deep abhorrence towards Jews. Such a country seemed to be super stable------Actually most of the countries in a dictatorship are just like Nazi Germany, they all fall into a hero-worship of their leaders and seemed to be unbreakable. However, countries like them are not stable at all. It is because their strength comes from the belief of there "hero" leader, without their leader, the only way for them is death. On the other hand, the leaders usually are irresponsible (In the last few hours of Hilter’s life, all he thought is how to suicide with the whole Germany’s fall down, instead of thinking the way out). In this way, we can see that dictatorship, the opposite of democracy, is actually very weak.
Let's move back to democracy. People in countries of democracy can decide their own ways. The advantage of this is: the way decided by a lot of people is more suitable for a country than a way come up with one person. This is obviously. One person only has his own idea. The more people involved in discussion, the more the way match with most members' idea. The stability of a country also comes from the food, salary and safety which democracy is able to give people and in fact, democracy has done these jobs perfectly. In a democracy system, people tend to have equal rights (the government set up many decrees to achieve this), including salary, food and many other rights. Most of them have already realized. About safety, there is a good example showing the advantages of democracy. In Myanmar, victims suffered from cyclone and cannot receive helps from other countries, many people even paid their lives for it, just because the political system in Myanmar. Myanmar refused to receive other’s help. However, things are different in democracy system. When people are in danger, they can receive others help as soon as possible, they can always in a safe position. In this way, we can see that democracy satisfied the most important part of a country, people. With the people’s unity, a country can be very stable.
However, real democracy is difficult to realize. In fact, real democracy is impossible because there should be no things like “country” in a democracy world.

A Inconceivable Truth
People always think things in normal ways. However, many things do not follow the way which they expect to be.
For example, suicide is the third cause of death in adolescents in Singapore, following by intentional injury and homicide. Most people believe that teenagers with antidepressants are more easy to commit suicide because they have problems with their mind and the way of thinking.
However, a new study by researchers at the University of South Florida and University of Illinois suggests FDA mandated warnings about suicide in teens treated with antidepressants could have the unintended consequence of placing more youth at risk, this means teenagers with antidepressant treated actually will have less rate of suicide than normal teenagers.
This is probably because teens with antidepressants could be more calm than normal persons when they get excited and want to do something stupid. Normal person live what they want and can not hold on when they get excited.
People really want to lower the rate of death in teenagers, so they try to help those teens who are supposed to keen to commit suicide. However, the misunderstanding of teens with antidepressants treated let all of the doctors, psychologist, media go towards them, who will not choose to commit suicide, basically. For those who really need help, no one will go and help them and when they feel really upset and can not relief themselves, they choose suicide.
People care about teens and they have done a lot for them, but they can not even tell the facts among teenagers. They just make their own assumptions without any evidence. Unfortunately, the wrong assumption seemed to be so correct that no one will doubt. Then the tragedy just happened.
Care like this is not care at all. This is not a society should do.
A real nice society should care about everyone in need, prejudice shouldn't be in the society's dictionary. People should have more research like the two university and help people find the truth.
Do care about every members in the society. An accidentally suggest may save a lot of people's life.
