Minju Yeo/ Classification Essay/ Tue 1,2

There's a saying, "A diplomat is a warrior without a gun." Diplomats are multiplayers since they have to have knowledge in various fields including expert knowledge. They have to study other countries' culture, and have a profound knowledge on music or arts. To become diplomats, people should have outstanding abilities since they represent a country. There are important abilities as a diplomat and the abilities I have to possess to become a diplomat.

First of all, diplomats have to be patriotic. Patriot is an important basic attitude of mind for diplomats. They have to understand well of their own country because they represent their country. They have to be responsible for their behavior and be careful with their actions or words. Also, diplomats must know everything about their own country, including current issues in or outside their country or other basic information such as history and culture. As they understand their country better, they can love their country more.

 Moreover, diplomats need a spirit of sacrifice. I read a book that a Korean woman diplomat wrote.  She said being a woman diplomat is much harder than man diplomats, because they have to give birth and raise children. Since I'm a woman, I have to have a spirit of sacrifice to become a diplomat. Not only women but men also have some sacrifice to make. They have to move around at least every 5 years, so they sometimes have to live apart with their family. And sometimes, when they work in dangerous countries which are in a civil war, they can be in a serious danger. Diplomats are not only splendid as they look like. They sacrifice in some parts of their life.

Last is a keen insight. Keen and wide insight is essential for diplomats. They have to understand the whole situation of the events those are going around the world, and have position of their own. To have a certain position of their country, they have to have insight and understand the events thoroughly. They have to predict the future and calculate profit using their insight.

In short, attributes to become a diplomat is quiet simple, but not easy. They have to be very patriotic, have to have a spirit of sacrifice, also a keen insight. To become a diplomat, I have to become a patriotic person and have a spirit of sacrifice and a keen insight.

  1. I love your writing you write quite well. I love your writing that starts with A diplomat is a warrior without a gun. It comes to me really strong. You also did well on your whole story. It goes well and I can easily understand your ability. You only use diplomat one topic to write the whole and it is very good. But I think it would be better if you tried to focus more on the conclusion. It looks bit short and make the end bit less-focused. If you change it at the second draft, It could be wonderful.
