Note:
(1) Today I gave
everyone an easy pop-quiz. From the result, I knew most of you really got
the concept right. That's good.
(2) I hope everyone
can be more concentrated in the class and get more involved in the topic we are
talking about. You don't have to spend a lot of time reviewing, because I
don't ask you to memorize everything in the textbook. However, you need
to spend time thinking about the questions I ask you in the class. If you
have time and you are able to do some research through on-line resources or
printed resources, it will be good for you that you go find more details about
the topic we are discussing. You will benefit much more from curiosity
and the action you take to gratify your curiosity.

Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Austria are.
