  G20 protesters set up Toronto camp

  Anti-G20 protesters set up camp at a Toronto park Friday evening after at least 3,000 people noisily marched through the downtown streets, snarling traffic along the way.

  Following the first sizable protest, a few hundred people set up a couple dozen tents at Allan Gardens, not far from the summit meeting centre, where they said they will camp for the weekend. Most of the tents were red, with messages scrawled on the side including "Housing is a right" and "End homelessness now."

  The protest was mostly peaceful, although there were a few minor confrontations and skirmishes with police. The Integrated Security Unit said five G20-related arrests were made Friday, but did not specify whether they were linked to the protest.

  The demonstration began around 2 p.m. ET at Allan Gardens, where there were speeches were made and slogans chanted.

  Shortly afterward, protesters took to the streets, marching west along nearby Carlton Street, across Yonge Street and then south on University Avenue.

  All along the route, police blocked traffic to allow the protest to pass by. Streetcars were rerouted throughout the downtown core. Security staff in some buildings temporarily prevented employees from leaving.

  Just before 6 p.m. ET, more than 100 police stopped the protest crowd at Elm St. and University Avenue, several blocks north of the U.S. consulate and less than two kilometres from the site of the G20 summit.

  "Let us march!" they shouted at the police. The group then decided to head west on Elm Street, averting a major confrontation with officers.

  "Restraint on both sides," CBC reporter Pras Rajagopalan said from the scene.

  The protest then moved north and then east again as police appeared determined to prevent the crowd from heading south toward the security zone surrounding the summit site.

  Just after 7 p.m. ET, the protesters began arriving back in Allan Gardens, having come full circle from where their protest march began more than four hours earlier.

Many police donned riot gear during the protest.

  "There were some tense moments," said CBC reporter Steven D'Souza. More than a dozen police on horseback were also on scene.

  At one point, police formed a line to protect Toronto police headquarters, which is at Bay and College streets.

  Protesters were making themselves heard, loudly chanting, "Fight the war on the poor! Make the rich pay!" among other slogans.

  It's not clear if their ultimate destination was the downtown core's restricted zone, where a security fence encircles an area that includes the Metro Toronto Convention Centre — the site of the G20 gathering, which officially begins Saturday.

  Some of the protesters told CBC News they intend to establish a tent city at a downtown park but did not specify which one.

  The groups represent more than two dozen causes, including environmental, economic and labour issues.

  Organizer Gaetan Heroux said the group intends to make noise to ensure G20 delegates are aware of their presence.

  "The idea is to have at this time a group of world leaders wining and dining in five-star hotels, sleeping very well at nighttime while five minutes away from them, there's a large group of people who don't have enough housing and don't have enough to eat," said Heroux.

  "So the idea is to bring the tent city … to remind our politicians and Mr. Harper that what he wants to present to the world is a lie."

  【热点话题】在一体化的今天,各国之间互相竞争又高度依赖。近些年出现的一系列问题,例如,变暖、伊朗朝鲜核问题、区域战争、海平面上升、汇率变革以及经济危机等问题都需要世界各国参与其中,积极发挥各自的作用,真可谓是“牵一发而动全身”。此次G20峰会又出现了示威抗议的行为,甚至演变成了一种暴力行为的原因到底是什么呢?亲历过峰会示威现场的人不难发现,民众抗议呼声主要有以下几个:会议安保花费10亿加币(65亿人民币?)而我们:1. 还有很多人在绝望地失业2. 还有很多穷人,需要花钱的地方还很多。3. 城里的无家可归者被赶走,使他们更加无家可归。4. 开销很大,没什么回报。用纳税人的钱搞形象工程。

  凡事都要透过现象看本质。细心的人都会发现,民众抗议的原因都跟经济危机和财务赤字有着莫大的联系。危机直接造成了社会福利水平下降、失业率过高等问题。众所周知,经济危机的直接导火索是美国雷曼兄弟公司的破产,各国都把雷曼作为一个经典案例进行了大量的解读。深入剖析和思考此话题就会发现它与雅思考试中的关于公司经营case study的场景有着紧密的联系。

  ? BOX TELECOM CASE STUDY(BOX TELECOM 案例分析)

  在剑桥5的Test 4 Section 3中,讨论了Box Telecom案例分析的话题,朗阁海外考试研究中心将带考生们一起来了解一下相关的内容。

  l Box Telecom 存在着怎样的问题?

  Suffer from falling sales, 销售业绩下降;face up to increased competition, 竞争更加激烈;stalled by a strike, 罢工所带来的停滞。

  l 问题的原因是什么?

  两个原因:1、事实上invested too heavily或者invested at the wrong time 都不是原因,真正的原因是high interest rates。事实上雷曼公司也是由于恶劣信贷过多而被银行切断现金流才走向破产的。2、poor training 是影响公司market share的罪魁祸首。

  l How to create a new company with a new image?(solutions)

  1、find individuals who’d be prepared to back them with some of the capital they need,找到资金支持。2、alter how they are running things—the management layer and the process,改变公司的管理层和运作方式。

  这样的一个公司的经营案例其实又何尝不是、运作的一个缩影呢?无论任何机构,如果能够经常谦虚的进行case study,把potential problems、causes、solutions都想清楚的话就不会给自己的公司和整个社会带来危机crisis了。如果经济良好,人民安居乐业,旨在改善经济构架,商讨金融改革的一次峰会summit meeting也就不会有这么多人protest 了。

  【背景常识】 这里我们可以看到case study 是一种科学严谨的研究方法,无论是对于出国学习还是雅思考试都非常重要。那么,什么是案例研究呢?在对公司、企业进行案例研究方面我们又要注意什么呢?

What: Case studies

  · are written summaries or syntheses of real-life cases

  based upon data and research
