Dịch bài đọc:
Ở Châu Phi, một công ty thực phẩm nổi tiếng đã cố gắng bán thức ăn trẻ em của mình bằng cách quảng cáo nó với hình ảnh của một em bé trên nhãn. Họ không biết rằng quốc gia đặc biệt này chỉ sử dụng nhãn để hiển thị hình ảnh của thực phẩm bên trong. Khi Pepsico sử dụng khẩu hiệu "Hãy sống với Pepsi" ở Đài Loan, họ không biết rằng nó sẽ được dịch sang tiếng Trung Quốc vì “Pepsi đưa tổ tiên của bạn trở về từ thế cõi chết”.
Những hiểu lầm như những điều này về ngôn ngữ hoặc về văn hóa đôi khi thật khôi hài nhưng cũng có thể gây ra tổn thương hoặc sự tức giận thực sự. Phong cách kinh doanh rất khác nhau ở các quốc gia khác nhau và những gì bình thường trong một nền văn hóa có thể hoàn toàn không được chấp nhận ở một nền văn hóa khác.
Xã hội ở các quốc gia khác nhau có thể là khó khăn. Ví dụ, ở các nước Ả Rập, mọi người không thảo luận về kinh doanh trong các bữa ăn. Tặng quà là một vấn đề tiềm năng khác: ở Anh, hầu hết mọi người đều tặng quà cho một bữa tiệc tối, nhưng ở nhiều quốc gia, điều này không lịch sự vì điều đó cho thấy bạn nghĩ rằng chủ nhà nghèo.

Write an essay (150 - 300 words) about this topic:
Some people think that spending a lot on holding wedding parties, birthday parties, and other celebrations is just a waste of money. Others, however, think that these are necessary for individuals and the society. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your experience.
In the current world, most of the people to celebrate any special occasion by inviting a lot of people. The discussion that throwing too much money to hold parties birthday, marriage or any other special event is a debatable one, with strong logics provided by the supporters of both the views.
A few argue that the special events need to be celebrated grandly, as it happens only a few times in a lifetime. For instance, marriage is considered to occur once in a lifetime and the people want to have the memory of that event until their last breath. This is possible only when the location is well decorated and all of the friends and the neighbours are invited. By spending limited money, it is almost impossible to achieve something special which will be remembered forever. Thus it is obvious, why some people incline towards this point of view.
On the other hand, some people believe that it is not right to spend a huge amount money on personal celebrations as there are a lot of people across the globe under starvation. For example, in most of the African countries, many people do not even have food to eat for a single meal a day. In case, the money spent on celebration can be sent to the people who are really in need, definitely, a lot of life can be saved. Hence, it is clear why a few individuals refute with high spending parties.
Considering the memories of special occasions as well as starvation, spending much money for parties has been supported and refuted by many. Even though memories of some special events are important, saving human life from starvation is more important. Hence, in my opinion, it is necessary to cut down the spending on parties and spend that money for the poor people’s food.

Help me , please!!!!!!!
Throwing parties can be expensive. While some people do not find these fancy parties worth what they cost, others believe parties are important to both individuals and the society.
People choose to throw parties for a number of reasons. For starters, parties can make better teams. Project kick-off parties are good opportunities to break the ice and help team members to know each other better. Victory parties create a sense of success and belonging. Companies do not see parties as wastes of money and allocate budget to support such events. Moreover, parties often leave good memories. From our own experiences, we all have happy memories of our birthday parties when we were little. Every family has great photos took on family parties in their album. In addition, contrary to what some people believe that spending on parties is a waste of social resources, parties actually create value, either by employing people in the party planning business or by offering people better party experiences.
