안녕하세요 잉글리쉬홀릭입니다.
목요일 모임에 참여해주시는 분들이 조금이 외국인들과 소통함에 있어, 정확한 표현을 구사하실 수 있도록 도움을 드리고자 돌아오는 2번째 주에 새로운 커리큘럼을 추가하고 여러분들의 피드백을 받는 시간을 가져보려고 하오니 많은 참여 부탁드리겠습니다.
TOPIC 1)
First Impression (첫인상)
첫인상은 현대사회에 면접, 모임 등 사람들과 소통을 하는데 중요한 요소가 되는데요. 아래의 기재된 내용 등을 통해 자신 있게 영어로 스스로를 소개해봐요.

자기소개 시 흔히 발생하는 실수
모임에서 자신을 소개할 때 저는 회사에 다녀요, 저는 회사원이예요와 같이 표현하고자 I’m a company worker라고 자신을 소개 한적이 없는지요? 만약, 이와 같이 외국인에게 말한다면 조금은 갸우뚱할 수 있습니다.
일반적으로는 I work for Samsung/Lotte와 같이 “나는 삼성/롯데에서 일해요”라고 말하는 것이 일반적이지만, 만약 이것이 꺼려진다면 I’m a teacher/ an IT engineer와 같이 직업을 말하여도 되세요. 단, 사무직을 I’m an officer라고는 쓰지 않기 때문에 주의해주세요.
이와 같이 직업의 명을 공개하기 꺼려지거나, 정확한 직업 명을 모르시는 경우에는 I work in an office/a store와 같이 표현하시면 되세요.
만약 취업 준비생일 아래와 같은 다양한 방법으로 표기할 수 있다
l I’m looking for work
l I’m job hunting
l I’m putting together my portfolio
l I’m unemployed
l I’m between job
자신소개 시 제공되는 정보

TOPIC 2)
Chinese gene-editing scientist defends his research, raises possibility of third baby
By Helen Regan, Rebecca Wright and Alexandra Field, CNN
Updated 7:45 PM ET, Wed November 28, 2018
오늘의 기사정리
유전자 가위 (gene/genome editing)
인간세포와 동식물세포의 유전자를 교정(genome editing)하는 데 사용하는 기술. 동식물 유전자에 결합해 특정 DNA부위를 자르는데 사용하는 인공 효소로 유전자의 잘못된 부분을 제거해 문제를 해결한다.
에이즈 면역력을 갖게 하기 위해 '유전자 편집' 태아를 출산 시켰다고 주장하여 이는 현재 세계적인 이슈가 되고 있으며, 이에 대해 어떻게 생각하는지 토론해보고자 합니다.
The Chinese
scientist who sparked an international outcry after alleging to have helped create the world's first
genetically edited babies has raised the possibility of a third child being
born, after announcing that a separate woman was pregnant at an early
stage with a modified embryo.
Speaking in front of a packed hall of about 700 people Wednesday at the Second International Summit on Human Genome Editing, He Jiankui publicly defended his work, saying he felt "proud" of his achievement.
He, an associate professor at the Southern University of Science and Technology in Shenzhen, sent shock waves through the scientific community on Monday when he announced in a video online that two ostensibly healthy twin girls had been born this month from embryos altered to make them resistant to HIV.
at the Second International Summit on Human Genome Editing in Hong Kong on November 28, 2018.
"For this specific case, I feel proud. I feel proudest, because they had lost hope for life," He said Wednesday of the parents of the twins, the father of whom is believed to carry HIV. "But with this protection, [the father] sent a message saying he will work hard, earn money and take care of his two daughters and his wife."
Asked whether his clinical trials had resulted in other pregnancies, He replied, "there is another one, another potential pregnancy."
The academic did not disclose any further details regarding the possibility of a third genetically edited baby, other than answering "yes" when asked whether the pregnancy was still in an early stage.
He said his research has been submitted to a scientific journal for review, without naming the publication, and apologized for the result leaking "unexpectedly."

amid denial from hospital and international outcry
He's research has raised serious ethical questions around the transparency of gene editing and sparked calls for a globally binding code of conduct.
In an question-and-answer session after the presentation, He said he conducted two rounds of informed consent with the parents, lasting a total of three hours.
"The simple fact that he was directly involved in trying to get consent from the patients is a huge problem," said Robin Lovell-Badge, head of the Laboratory of Stem Cell Biology and Developmental Genetics at the Francis Crick Institute, who moderated the discussion with He. "You should never do that. You should have an independent third party who can properly explain the risks and the benefits."
According to He, the volunteers were found through an HIV/AIDS volunteer group.
Other concerns have focused on the CCR5 gene, which scientists at the conference said is crucial to the human immune system. Removing it increases the risk of susceptibility for other diseases such as the West Nile virus and influenza.
"When you change one thing, something else gets changed, too," said Feng Zhang, one of the inventors of the gene-editing technique CRISPR.
However, many of those in attendance at the Hong Kong conference have pointed out that while He has not necessarily contravened any international regulations, his purported use of CRISPR represents a clear break with convention.
"There's a fairly tight consensus from what is and is not acceptable in genome editing as of now, and He's reported work represents a departure from that," said David R. Liu, professor of chemistry and chemical biology at Harvard University, who has pioneered improving versions of CRISPR.
The conference, which is attended by leaders in the fields of genetics and ethics as well as policy-makers, is expected to issue a statement on the development during its closing session Thursday.
After He's presentation, conference Chairman David Baltimore said the research was not medically necessary, as there are other treatments for HIV. Baltimore criticized He's lack of transparency and referred to an agreement made at the 2015 conference that said it would be irresponsible to use such gene editing until safety issues had been dealt with.
At the forefront of global concerns is that gene-editing technology is still in its infancy and there could be huge unknown consequences of using it in human embryos that go on to deliver.

The potential for long-term social effects on the girls was of particular concern at the Hong Kong summit, with one audience member asking whether He had thought about how the girls would see themselves and how they would be treated by society.
"I don't know how to answer this question," He said.
Jennifer Doudna, professor of chemistry and molecular and cell biology at UC Berkeley and one of the co-inventors of CRISPR, said she felt "physically sick" during He's presentation. "To see this work being presented and performed the way it was, it was really inappropriate. And it affects two girls," she said.
"I hope this is a wake-up call for everybody to recognize that while this technology is incredibly exciting, this is an important moment where we need to grapple with responsibility of managing this technology going forward."
Despite ethical concerns, a recent study suggested that the Chinese public is broadly in favor of using gene editing for medical purposes. An online survey conducted by Sun Yat-Sen University in Guangzhou found that more than two-thirds of the 4,771 people surveyed (575 of whom reportedly have HIV) supported its use in treating diseases, according to the state-run tabloid Global Times.
Chinese people "have a high willingness to use of gene in disease prevention and treatment," Liang Chen, a professor at Sun Yat-Sen University, was quoted as saying. "This suggests that the research of gene editing in China not only has a promising potential but also is responding to the public's needs."
