NOTA 22 OTROS PASIVOS FINANCIEROS

To evaluate the academic language in the essay, nominalisations will be investigated. Nominalisations are boxed. Grammatical intricacy and lexical density will also be calculated. The number of calculated lexical items is put in brackets at the end of each sentence. As with the transitivity system, the direct quotations will not be calculated for lexical density. Altogether, the coding system in this part is as follows: nominalisations lexical items (calculated number of lexical items).

5.1.5.1 The Thesis Stage

Currently, most countries confront stagflation of the economy such as expensive goods, oil crisis and unemployment. Some people find it is difficult to adapt their lives regarding this situation. Some people, on the other hand, can easily revolve their lives to go along with it. Success in life is the result of the socio-economic factors. Socio-economic components are essential in building up a strong society and positively [=positive] social behavior combining with financial dimensions with inter-personal or inter-group dynamics. Socio-economic factors consist of social and economic factors that characterise the individual or group within the social structure including income, education, occupation, health and the environment. Success can be described in many ways; for example, gaining top positions in a company, having a high salary, having more time for one’s family and achieving financial freedom Although there are many characteristics to define success in life, having money or wealth is the way it can be quantified as it can lead to a healthy, wealthy and fulfilling life. Therefore, it can be argued that socio-economic factors govern success in life. The purpose of this essay is to explain three major factors that can impact on how a high salary is earned. The factors are education, health and family income.

5.1.5.2 The First Argument Stage

Education is an important socio-economic factor because it allows people to gain knowledge and skills to give them the power to achieve gainful employment. People who have a good quality education have more chances to succeed in the future because they will be able to get a higher position which can lead to earning a better salary. According to a study by Mclennan, “employed persons with bachelor degrees or higher qualifications were most often employed as professionals, whereas persons with other post-school qualifications were most often working as tradespersons and related workers” (1998, p8). The article supports that education significantly affects how people are employed; that is, most people who graduate with a degree will probably be employed in a professional capacity. Those who graduate with a diploma from a TAFE college will probably be employed as tradespersons. From this article, it can be seen that a professional occupation such as doctor, lawyer, lecturer and engineer requires higher qualifications. To become a doctor, a person needs to complete a minimum bachelor’s degree in medicine and several years of medical practice. Knowledge that doctors gain from their education and hand-on experience from their internship is essential for providing accurate treatment to patients. On the other hand, if doctors cannot apply the knowledge they have learned, they cannot help their patients in the proper way. This proves that education is valuable in society. Consequently, it is clear that education is an important socio-economic factor leading to success in life.

5.1.5.3 The Second Argument Stage

Health is another important socio-economic factor because it helps people work effectively. People who take care of themselves will have the well being of both physical and mental conditions of one’s body. Healthy people will have longer life expectancy than those who have poor health. According to a study by Bloom, “health improvements accounted for as much as one–third of East Asia’s economic miracle, with formal analysis suggesting that a country can, on average, expect to see per capita incomes grow by an extra 0.3-0.5 percent for every five years it adds to its life expectancy” (2001, p5). The article supports that countries with population having good health and high life expectancy could increase per capita incomes of the countries. From this article, it can be seen that regarding per capita income, theoretically it can be used to indicate how much each individual receives the yearly income generated in the country. So, high per capita income can imply high income one can earn. Besides, it is noted that at personal and family level, physical and mental wellness is important, benefits everyone and improves the overall quality of life (Gahrmann, 2004, p19.). The article shows that at personal and family level, physical and mental wellness is important because it benefits everyone and improves the overall quality of life. Healthiness helps reduce medical costs and expenditures and minimizes unemployment. From this evidence, it can be seen that healthy people with proper medical care can also work effectively and trend [=tend] to be less absent due to illness. Work dedication and higher performance can give them more chances for promotion than those who have poor health. Professional athletes are a good example to show that good health is a key factor to achieve their top performance and career success. Illness and injuries can cause them a decline in world ranking and income. Consequently, it is clear that health is an important socio-economic factor leading to success in life.

expectancy could increase per capita incomes of the countries.

6 From this article, it can be seen that regarding per capita income, theoretically it can be used to indicate how much each individual receives the yearly income generated in the country.

(15)

7 So, high per capita income can imply high income one can earn. (7) 8 Besides, it is noted that at personal and family level, physical and mental wellness

is important, benefits everyone and improves the overall quality of life (Gahrmann, 2004, p19.).

(15) 10 Healthiness helps reduce medical costs and expenditures and minimizes

unemployment.

(8) 11 From this evidence, it can be seen that healthy people with proper medical care

can also work effectively and trend [=tend] to be less absent due to illness.

(12) 12 Work dedication and higher performance can give them more chances for

promotion than those who have poor health.

(10) 13 Professional athletes are a good example to show that good health is a key factor

to achieve their top performance and career success.

(14) 14 Illness and injuries can cause them a decline in world ranking and income. (7) 15 Consequently, it is clear that health is an important socio-economic factor leading

to success in life.

5.1.5.4 The Third Argument Stage

Family income is another important socio-economic factor because it can give children more affordable opportunities to achieve more.Young people growing up in a wealthy family usually go to prestigious schools and get higher education, have more chances to get a good position with a higher salary. According to a study by Guldi, Page, & Stevens, “family background could affect adult children’s success in both direct and indirect ways” (2006, p1). The article supports that parent’s income, occupation and education significantly affects the success of their children because family income gives an opportunity for children to access higher education, which will later lead to more employment opportunities after graduation. From this evidence article, it can be seen that children from wealthy families trend [=tend] to attend private schools, which offer more educational facilities, equipments and learning support such as modern laboratory equipments and tutoring sessions. With support given to students, students are likely to academically achieve at secondary level and to continually pursue tertiary education. Families with low income may not enable [=able] to afford their children’s education. Tuition fee is possibly too high. In Thailand, for example, most well-known universities are located in Bangkok where the cost of living is relatively high. Living in the big city for attending higher education could be unaffordable for students from poor families. Scholarships can fund economically disadvantaged students higher education but it is [=they are] also highly competitive due to a small number of available scholarships. Furthermore, according to a study by Mayer, “parental income is positively correlated with virtually every dimension of child well-being that social scientists measure and this is true in every country for which we have data. The children of rich parents are healthier, better behaved, happier and better educated during their childhood and wealthier when they have grown up than are children from poor families” (2002, p30). The article supports that the children from wealthier families will have more chances to succeed when they grow up than those from poorer families. From this evidence, it can be seen that people growing up in a wealthy family will probably [^have] a much better lifestyle and be able to afford more luxuries which will increase the stability in life. On the other hand, a young person [=young people] will find it more difficult if they do not have financial support; for example, when members in a poor family are ill they will probably try to cure themselves without seeing the doctor because of

131

lack of money. So, they might recover from the illness very slowly or possibly a death [=die]. Consequently, it is clear that family income is an important socio-economic factor leading to success in life.
