Language is a critical part of social justice — how we refer to a group of people, a type of activity, or a place shapes how we think about that thing. And human trafficking is no different. So when a Ms. magazine blog post asked what we should call men who buy sex with young girls, it got me asking the same thing. When “john” or “trick” just isn’t strong enough, what do you call a person who pays to segxwally abuse a child?

More and more people have stopped using the term “child prostitute” in favor “exploited child,” “trafficking victim,” or even “prostituted child.” Around the country, advocates are realizing that prostitution is something that is done to children, not something they choose to do to themselves.

With the English teaching methods reform, more and more English teachers organize the teaching process in English so that they may realize the Communicated English. The Communicated English means that teachers instruct the students and explain questions basically in English, and the students are also required to use English in class.louis vuitton purse
