  3. I just read an article about mobile phone and we call it as cell phone.Acctually the cell phone we use produce Electromagnetic wave(EM wave)that can harm our health.When we use cell phone,acctually we are absorb the radiation that procude my the cell phone.Depending on how close the cell phone antenna is to the head, as much as 60 percent of the radiation is absorbed by and actually penetrates the area around the head, some reaching an inch to an inch-and-a-half into the brain.

  4. I just read an article about aircraft where it has many types of aircraft. two types of aircraft which is military an non military types. Military aircraft is not only combat aircraft,devides for fighters and bombers, but also fighter-bombers and ground attack aircrarf. Unmilitary aircraft can be devided into two,commercial and general. Commercial is used to carrying passengers and cargo, known as airlines, while general is for other kind of activities like training,bussiness jet(bizjetz), medical transport and so on
    for me,the languages is quiet simple and easy to understand. The reader can extract the point and adding some aircraft terms. Another side, there is some of aircraft term which might only can be understand by who had be used with it.

  6. The article i just read was about frog.There are about 24 families of different frogs and containing more than 3800 species in the world.A few live on land and tree but most live in near water,though as adults they are air-breeding.Frogs have vary in size and colours.it usually have squat bodies with hind leg specialized for jumping and webbed feet for swimming.
    the language used was easy to read and understand.The writer used the standard words in english so that all people around the world easy to understand what he or she want to tell us about.But,there are many new scientific words that are very new for me such as Telmatobius culeus,tadpoles,prosalirus bitis and many more.

  8. http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/panasonicdmclx3/

    This url contains a review on the prosumer (a compromise between professional cameras and consumer cameras) camera model Panasonic DMC-LX3 (commonly known as the LX3).

    The article begins with a brief explanation on the LX3. It also compares the LX3 with its predecessor, the LX2, with the LX3 coming out top, and the LX3's specifications (a list of highlighted features). Next, the article proceeds by describing the outer design & body of the camera, noting that it is the slimmest available model (though it is still quite bulky and can only fit in larger pockets) for its range of image quality and camera functions. Next, it dissects the camera operations (shooting modes and functions) using pictures to show us what it looks like on the interface (there are 26 modes, so it might be a bit difficult for the user to remember all). The next aspect the article covers is about the timing between actions (how long the user has to wait). The power up time is about 2.0 seconds (2.9 seconds if it is from power up to shooting mode), and overall the waiting times range from 0.4 to 3.1 secs. In the photographic tests, the white balance mode often performs poorly under artificial light, so the user might have to get used to using the camera's manual mode, and the flash is also quite weak (but there is a flash hot shoe which allows users to mount an external flash). The image produced is of pretty good quality, even when tested against other cameras of its range it produces the least amount of noise (the grainy effect on the image) while still retaining a decent amount of detail (noise reduction reduces detail). Its noise-noise reduction balance also outshines two other prosumer camera models of its range, Canon PowerShot G10 (too much reduction) & Nikon Coolpix P6000 (too much noise) as the cameras are tested in different ISOs (sensitivity levels). To conclude, the reviewer gave an overall rating of 8.5 (over 10.0) to this camera, and highlighted in point form the pros and cons of the LX3.

    Overall the language used in this review is fairly basic and easy to understand. There is still a risk of failing to understand what the reviewer is saying though, as like all camera model reviews it is laden with photography / camera-development exclusive terms. The reviewer does explain several terms here and there, and on every page there is a link to the glossary, but it still takes a fair bit of effort to understand if you are not camera-savvy.

  9. Photon
    Photon is a unit of light and its symbol is γ, hν, or ħω. This model was developed by Albert Einstein. Photon has no rest mass, and it only allows for interaction at long distance. Most famous of Photon has been use at applications in technology is laser. Laser is an extremely important application and it is under stimulated emission.

    Planck's energy formula E = hν is often used by engineers and chemists in design. For beyond the Standard Model (photon without charge and mass), experimental physicists try to check out for discrepancies between experiment and Standard Model. In particular, they continue to set ever better upper limits on the charge and mass of the photon.

    I was planning to beyond this Standard Model. However, after I study whole chapter of photon I known that reason why physicists try to develop but finally have to obey it. Since Einstein developed this Photon Theory, it got many subtopic and misunderstand of physics have their evolutions. Theory of light of Newton, the Greatest Physicist in our mind was obeying by that Photon Theory and exchange our technology even our life.

  12. The article i read is about LAPTOPS which also known as notebook.I got this article from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.From this article,I know that laptops is designed for mobile use.A laptop integrates most of the typical components of a desktop computer such as a display,a keyboard and speaker. Laptop are usually shaped like a large notebook and weigh from 1.4 to 5.4 kg. Most laptop designed in the flip form factor to protect the screen and the keyboard when closed.They usually have a touchscreen display and some include handwriting recognition or graphics drawing capability. Most laptop originally considered suitable for specialized field applications but today there are more laptops than desktops used for business and studying purposes.A survey in US come up with the ratio of laptops being sold is more than desktops.

    On the other than,from this article I has learn a new word CLAMSHELL which is synonyms to flip.The language used in this article was easy to understand.Most of the sentences was in active form.It was very factual.In this article there is less example given but the explaination was very in detail which makes me understand easily.After reading this article,I have a better idea about laptops and its function.

  13. Efficient listening is very difficult?I have read an article which is talking about the seven tips for effective listening.What is the ways? It's concentrate on what others one saying, keep eye contact, avoid early evaluations and getting defensive,and practice paraphrasing.Besides, a good listener will listen carefully and observe for the speaker's feeling. The last tips given in the article is ask question to make sure the information you get is clear.
    Efficient listening is important.So this article is very good for us especially in our communication skill. Is't very easy to be a good listener?I think so.
    Furthermore,it's easy understand for anyone. Most of the sentences used in active form.

  14. An article that i read is about communicating with young children.Children especially young children are still learning to use words.Adult can be easier use body language or display emotion,than try to find the right words .It is because many young learners have difficult with the nuances.For example,"too and two" sound alike but meaning are different.Thus,when we communicate with children we should be patient, and creativity on both sides to overcome most communication difficulties. A counselor or mediator can help,but practice, patience and understanding can be effective first steps to communicate with children.


    This article that i read is quite easy to understand.It is because the sentences are not too long.Besides that,examples also be given to explain the situation .For example, "too,and two”is alike but meaning different. Overall vocabulary are not too much but it still have a few words that i do not understand like mimicry,frustrate,verbal,and nonverbal.

  15. This article is talk about the red yeast rice was not a good alternative to statins.
    In a new trial, the people who were taking the red yeast rice supplements showed greater reductions in LDL than the people on placebos, also they did not suffer more muscle.It also contained naturally occuring statin compounds in varying doses.
    There have two reason why the new trial failed to show that supplements are better than statin.Firstly, taken longer would cause muscle pain.Secondly, this have not been proven to reduce the risk of heart attact and stoke.

    This article was contained many words that were difficult to understand. Most of the sentences were wrote in active form.

  16. First of all,This is only MY OPINION.You may agree with what I say or maybe not.I do not have the meaning of offence.It is just my opinion.

    According to previous comment,Urgent Versus Important,Important will go first instead of Urgent?
    Just my opinion,I do not feel it is able or suitable to compare.
    Firstly,WHY is a situation known as URGENT?
    when a situation is in urgent,that means it is important and need to solve the situation as soon as possible or immediately.

    From wikipedia,"Urgent can mean something that is Really important for example, Emergency, Important phone calls and many more".

    This prove that Urgent is REALLY IMPORTANT.
    REALLY IMPORTANT important than IMPORTANT?
    Give me a break.
    Urgent and Important is unable to compare.
    Urgent = Important.
    Urgent need important to complete the meaning of the word.

    For example,there is a high grade student.she done very well in her education and later will be her interview for her Full scholarship for the college which is the dreams and futures of her's.
    Suddenly,her parents called her.She was told that her brother is dying because of an accident occurred and he need her blood to continue the surgery.Coincidently,the blood bank is short of the blood type of his brother.She is the only one that have the same blood type as her brother in the family.She is the only one that can save her brother but the interview starting soon.If she miss the interview and her scholarship will be gone.
    Now,
    which is more important and which is more urgent?
    The answer is both are same urgent and important.
    Her dreams and futures,or her brother who is dying?Which will she choose?How about you?

    So,once again,Urgent and Important is unable to compare.There is only comparing in Decision you have to make when Urgent and Important situation.
    Anyone who wrote that article probably is just bored himself/herself out or did not even know the meaning of the word "urgent" and "important"?

    Sorry for the long comment.

  17. I would like to share something that i read just now.By reaching the age of 20,we should be independent enough,beginning to work hard in order to get our own financial support without relying on our "F&M Fund" (Father and Mother Fund).I'm sure that all of us have been relying on "F&M Fund" since the day we were born.

    We were born in such a wonderfull family,and it is awesome for having a great daddy who financially supporting us,nourishing us by providing us all the needs and wants no matter on the so call 4-needs (clothing,beverage,shelter and safety) or education.

    I do realized that i am the lucky one, or probably should be the fortunate one,as my parents have been showering me with love. should I study smart instead of study hard,and obtain my certificate with first clas honor as i hardly thought of any other better way in repaying their sacrifice on me.

    Sometimes we tand to forget what we have been receiving from our parent as we treat it as something granted. We must be grateful.

    Can we all do that?? >.<

    PS : I do hope everyone of you get what im trying to say,be GRATEFUL!

  19. i would like to share an article that i have read.

    This is a quite meaning short message from Andrew Matthews, He is a bestselling author, cartoonist and international speaker.
    His books have been translated into 35 different languages.

    I choose his article because I found his article is easy to understanding and yet is touching.

    In the article, a character named Roger Crawford was born with one leg and two arms, but no hands. What does he do? He's a professional tennis player. That is, he earned professional status and he makes his living playing and coaching tennis.

    People like Roger reminds us that our excuses are mostly unexceptable.

    Take any goal you want to achieve ... a university degree, an apartment of your own... And you'll find a hundred reasons why it is inconvenient or impossible.

    But all you need is ONE really good reason why you want something! Then you go and get it!

    When you want something enough, you find a way.

    In conclusion,success is not about "the facts". It's about your attitude.

  20. Recently,I had read an article.
    Its about precious things we have.

    We always finding for the precious things in our life.But we didn't notice that the precious things we finding is actually always around us.
    We soon realise that the things we lose is actually the most precious thing in our life.

    For example,
    Our parents,friendship,love and more.

    Try flash back through our memories and we will found that it is true.

    We shouldn't finding for the precious thing but noticing and knowing what is the precious thing around us that we are having present.
    So that,we won't regret in the future.

  21. Recently I have encounter an article that atrracts my interest into reading it.
    The main title of the article is about our solar system.
    Although many does not know, everyday a new things have been found in the system, such as recently 2 new moon have been found at planet saturn.
    The most interesting about this article is that, it makes me realize of how many other things that human still do not know exist in our solar system.
    About the language used by the writer, so far I can understand it perfectly, except for some of the scientific word.

  22. I've read an article about our "Unconscious Mind".

    Our brain is a complex thing. Really complex that scientists around the world until today, have never been able to discover it's full potential.

    Back to our unconscious mind, something that really amazed me was the fact that our brain , unconsciously, can and have been proven to be able to solve some problem that even our conscious mind or could I say logic thinking couldn't solve.

    One example of that situation is:
    One thinks about some problem, cannot find a solution but wakes up one morning with a new idea that unlocks the problem.

    Other than that, our unconscious mind are also associated with dreaming, sleep walking, intuition, habit and etc.

    It is also said, but never proven, that we can shape our unconscious mind through our conscious mind that is by shaping our manner and lifestyle.

    As a conclusion, behave and control our conscious mind in every aspect of our life as it could affect something that we might never have control over, our unconscious mind.

  23. The article that I read is about D-operation broadband. First for all, the author writes about its Terms and Conditions…if you are interesting on it, you can visit D-operation website and have a look. The author mentions an important condition which I believe many broadband users do not realize. The condition is all operation company do have different data limit which if you use extra data, you will be charge. Of course the rate is depending on the operation company. So, do not be surprise if you bill exceed our monthly fee. For information, usage volume of D-operation is 3GB, 10GB, and 20GB per month, which depends on the package.
    Second important condition is once you have reached the limit, you will be capped at 128Kbps as opposed to P1 @ 400Kbps, M-operation at 64Kbps, C-operation at 64Kbps/128Kbps). I think this is the reason why many user complaint that the speed of their broadband very slow.
    The advantages of D-operation broadband are it offers in terms of minimum bandwidth rather than promising speeds up to 3.6Mbps as done by another two operation. After the author testing, D-operation broadband had a good result which around 700Kbps download speed and 200Kbps upload speed. This result corresponding to minimum bandwidth of D-operation and did not cheat to its customer.
    After I finish this article, I feel more confidence with the D-operation broadband rather than another two operation.

  24. I read a article about a football team called Manchester United. This team is founded at 1878 as Newton Heath L&YR F.C. They also called the 'RED DEVIL'. Manchester United Football Club is an English football club, one of the most popular football clubs in the world, based at Old Trafford in Greater Manchester. The club was a founding member of the Premier League in 1992, and has played in the top division of English football since 1938, with the exception of the 1974–75 season. Average attendances at the club have been higher than any other team in English football for all.

  25. I have a read about the article genius is expressed in a variety of forms, such as mathematical genius, literary genius, scientific genius and philosophical genius amongst others. Genius may show itself in early childhood as a prodigy or later in life; either way, geniuses eventually differentiate themselves from the others through great originality. Geniuses often have crisp, clear-eyed visions of given situations, in which interpretation is unnecessary, and they build or act on the basis of those facts, usually with tremendous energy. Accomplished geniuses in intellectual fields start out in many cases as child prodigies, gifted with superior memory or understanding.

  27. lately i was curios about health..and how food effect our life as we are we eat..and i was wondering why eggs are being eaten by who want to build their body and muscle and i found out by reading this article that The best resource of amino acid profile on a single protein is egg. Eggs contain the highest net nitrogen utilization rating. By saying that means that more nitrogen is used this is what builds the muscle. Egg protein powder is made from pure natural egg whites making it a perfect product for athletes.

    the language is easy to understand as the author using simple words that make me continue to read trough until the end of the article.
