The Importance of Arabic 

I personally think that Arabic is the most importance language in the world. Why do I say that?

Firstly, We can read Al Quran because it is a miracle given by Allah to holy prophet Muhammad S.A.W. We as moslem will get knowledge or information about Islamic laws, warnings, histories and so on when we read it. So we can life better in the way of Islam religion.

Secondly, We can pray well to Allah because when we pray we must use Arabic. Take for example, reading Al Fatihah verses is a must in our prays (shalat). If we can not read it, our prays will not be accepted.

Thirdly, We can communicate with people in the middle east especially in Saudi Arabia without opening dictionary. When we make pilgrimage to Mecca, we will not lose our way because we can communicate to others by using Arabic.

From the facts above, it is obvious that everybody especially Moslem needs to learn and master Arabic.

Dust Bin

To improve comfort and cleanliness at our school, a number of dust bins should be increased.

When we look at classrooms, school corridors and school yard, there are paper mineral water cups, straws, and napkins here and there. The condition of uncleanliness and discomfort really hinders learning and teaching environment. Litters thrown carelessly cause disease, especially empty plastic cup or glasses. They can be filled out with water coming from the rain. This can be placed for dengue mosquitoes to spread out. Besides, these rubbish can deteriorate the scene. Well painted wall and green school yard do not mean anything litters are scattered everywhere.

Anyway I notice that most of the students in our school have responsibilities for the school environment. They put their litters on the proper places. But some are not diligent enough to find the dust bins. The numbers of dust binds in our schools are not enough. Ore dust bins should be put beside each of steps, outside of the classrooms, and some more also the corridors. Probably one dust bin should be in every ten meters. So when students want to throw away their litters, they can find the dust bins easily.

When school is equipped with sufficient dust bins, we do not have problems of freak and discomfort any more. Our school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.

Learning English

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure with learning when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some underlying reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.

Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.
Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is just what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times more motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically, and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.

Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and probably many other types don’t have precise people, place or time reference.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and yeas, even revolution.
Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar, practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary, spelling and culture.

From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and songs, learning English can be enjoyable and fun.

The Importance Of Reading

I personally think that reading is a very important activity in our life. Why do I say so? Firstly, by reading we can get a lot of knowledge about many things in the world such as Science, technology. Sports, arts, culture, etc written in either books, magazine, newspaper, etc.

Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and information about something happening in any parts of the world which can we see directly.
Another reason, reading can give us pleasure too. When we are tired, we read books, newspaper or magazine on the entertainment coloumn such as comedy, short story, quiz, etc. To make us relaxed.

The last, reading can also take us to other parts of the world. By reading a book about Irian Jaya we may feel we’re really sitting in the jungles not at home in our rooms.

From the facts above, it’s obvious that everyone needs to read to get knowledge, information and also entertainment. Or in summary we can say reading is truly important in our life.

Smoking In Restaurants

Smoking in restaurants is just not on. It must not be allowed because it is rude, harmful to others and dangerous for the smokers.

Firstly, smoking in a restaurant is impolite. The smell of the smoke affects all people and can turn them off their food. People pay to taste good food and not to be put off by foul smelling smoke.

Another reason smoking should not be allowed in restaurant is the harm it can do to others. Passive smoking that is breathing in smoke made by a smoker can lead to asthma attacks and even cancer.

Finally, smoking is dangerous and a health risk to the smokers. Cigarettes cause heart and lung disease and people should not smoke anywhere, not just in restaurants.

Therefore, smoking in restaurants is impolite, harmful to others and a health risk to the smokers and should not be allowed in any restaurants.

The Importance Of Arabic

I personally think that Arabic is the most importance language in the world. Why do I say that?
Firstly, We can read Al Quran because it is a miracle given by Allah to holy prophet Muhammad S.A.W. We as Moslem will get knowledge or information about Islamic laws, warnings, histories and so on when we read it. So we can life better in the way of Islam religion.
Secondly, We can pray well to Allah because when we pray we must use Arabic. Take for example, reading Al Fatihah verses is a must in our prays (salat). If we can not read it, our prays will not be accepted.
Thirdly, We can communicate with people in the middle east especially in Saudi Arabia without opening dictionary. When we make pilgrimage to Mecca, we will not lose our way because we can communicate to others by using Arabic.
From the facts above, it is obvious that everybody especially Moslem needs to learn and master Arabic.

TOEFL Is The Key To Academic Success

I personally think that TOEFL test is very important for us. There are two reasons why I say like this, it is the key to academic success.

Firstly, as a dreamer of studying in favorite high class or university in the world, we should have better English. To prove whether our English is bad or good, we should have English certificate. That is TOEFL certificate. As we all know that undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate programs around the world require students to demonstrate their ability to communicate in English as an entrance requirement. So, by doing TOEFL, we are sure that we will pass the entrance test. It is really true because The TOEFL test gives students the opportunity to prove that they can communicate ideas effectively by simulating university classroom and student life communication.

Secondly, English language that is used in the test reflects real-life of English language usage in university lectures, classes, and laboratories. It means that in TOEFL, we will know well some English expressions, grammar or structure, listening, readings etc. The language used in this test is the same language Professors, lecturers or teachers use when they discuss coursework or concepts with students. It is the language that students use in study groups and in everyday university situations, such as buying books at the bookstore. The reading passages are from real textbooks and course materials. If we study abroad, we will have no obstacle about English language because we have been trained in TOEFL test to communicate both either orally or in writing

In short, based on two arguments above, it seems that TOEFL is needed and it is important for us to achieve academic Success. We will pass the entrance exam and we can speak English well.

The Importance Of Education

I personally think that education is very important for us as Indonesian teenager who will take over values, good morals, culture and knowledge. We also bring the future of Indonesia nation in the middle of world global civilization.

The condition of education in Indonesia is terrible. Why do I say that? In fact, there are many regions that have not been reached by good education. If the condition is going like this, I am sure it is difficult for Indonesia to be a prosperous country. How can it be? As we all know, a prosperous country must have a good basic education, because by having good education, people will get job easily, good life. Due to this reason, it makes the country prosperous.

To improve education system in Indonesia, the government has tried to provide education evenly to all part of Indonesian and to apply suitable education system that can make people clever and civilized. So, Indonesian can life better in this modern and sophisticated era. By the existence of education in our country, we will be able to reach the degree of knowledge or science. Besides, the Indonesian human resources will be equal with people in all around the world.

In short, it is obvious that as young Indonesian generation, education is very important.

Money

With money we can buy the things that we need every day. And there are many things that money can do.

Money is first of all a means of exchange. If you want to exchange some books that you do not need for a shirt, you may try to find someone who needs your books and who has the shirt that you want. But it is often hard to organize an exchange. It is easier to sell the books and then buy the shirt that you like.
