  • Taipei American School Upper School English Department Summer Reading Texts & Semester Texts 2021-2022
    Taipei American School Upper School English Department Summer Reading Texts & Semester Texts 2021-2022 Writers of classical antiquity understood the unique quality of art, its capacity to delight and instruct. The hearers of tales, the audiences in the theaters, and, centuries later, the readers of books – all immersed in story – emerged transformed from their experience with literature. The Taipei American School English Department follows this venerable tradition and hopes our students, too, will be enriched by and find pleasure and knowledge in the books they read. The titles listed for each grade (see below) have been selected for that purpose. All students will also read one school-selected “community” book. Community Book (Required Text): American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang ISBN 9781250811899. A Kindle edition is available for this book. Teachers, students, and administrators alike will be reading this book, and discussion of this work will extend beyond the English classroom. This book will be incorporated into Advisory activities. Students should anticipate that in August, at the beginning of school, teachers will give an evaluated in-class essay test about the course-specific books required for summer reading. ALL STUDENTS: Students must purchase their books, including the book selected for community reading. Please make sure to purchase the specific edition listed of each text. All books should be obtained as soon as possible, ideally by the beginning of the school year. Students should allot the appropriate amount of time for a book shipment to arrive and should not rely on last minute purchases at local bookstores, which may or may not have enough copies of a particular book.

  • Bertelsmann Significantly Increases Revenues and Earnings in the First Half of 2015
    PRESS RELEASE Bertelsmann significantly increases revenues and earnings in the first half of 2015 Strategic measures are paying off At €8.0 billion, Group revenues are at highest level since 2007 Operating EBITDA of nearly €1.1 billion at record high Group net income up by more than 50 percent, to €398 million Further progress on all four strategic priorities Positive outlook for the full year Gütersloh, August 31, 2015 – Bertelsmann achieved strong growth in revenues, Operating EBITDA and Group net income in the first half of 2015. The international media, services and education company also made further progress in implementing its growth strategy. First-half Group revenues from continuing operations grew by 2.5 percent year-on-year, from €7.8 billion to €8.0 billion, their highest level since 2007. The trade book publisher Penguin Random House achieved strong revenue growth, driven by numerous bestsellers as well as positive currency effects. The successful performance of Mediengruppe RTL Deutschland, RTL Group’s digital businesses and Arvato’s financial services also contributed to the increase in revenues, while the continued expansion of BMG and the development of the education business also had a positive effect. In this way, the Group more than compensated for a revenue decrease of nearly €300 million attributable to the withdrawal from structurally declining businesses. Operating EBITDA once again exceeded the high level of the previous year, reaching almost €1.1 billion, a new record high (H1 2014: €1.0 billion). In particular, the book-publishing business in the U.S., the German TV business, several service businesses, BMG, and the online education provider Relias Learning recorded improved results.
