This summer vocation, the summer vocation before my junior year, has been filled with many kinds of preparation classes, such as SAT prep class and TOEFL prep c;ass. I had SAT prep class for the first month of my summer and TOEFL prep class for my second month of summer. The SAT prep class is pretty helpful, and I improved my writing skills. Although my math score dropped, I got a higher score on total score. In the SAT model test I took during sophomore  year, i scored 710 on math, but now i score lower than that.  Writing score and math score is easier to improve comparing to reading, and you gain less improvement on reading score with same amount of effort. I'll try to focus on math and writing because my total grade will improve more.

Today, my dad and I talked about the economy in Japan. He said that Japan successfully eased the deflation by lowering the exchange rate. I then asked my dad that why don't Taiwan also lower the exchange rate, since the economy in Taiwan is bad too. My dad said it won't work since the price is already rising in Taiwan, and lowering the exchange rate will only make the price rise. He also said it is risky to lower the exchange rate. If people starts to exchange other currency because of the decreasing value, the exchange rate will drop even more and the country will go into chaos.
