  2. I have read an article about Vinyl vs. CD(A Running Commentary).I heard about the vinyl renaissance, but I just did not realize how strong it is.
    The article's language can make me fluently to read and understand.There is such as " Unlike Compact Disc(CD)where you just pop the disc in the player and press the Play button..."is easy us to read.But, from the graph analysis, there shown their difficult language make me confusing such as "... everyone's wishes to reduce this or emphasize ...".

  4. I've read an article about positive thinking.
    If I ask "what is the key of success?", I think most of them will answer be hardworking, be proactive, and so on.But for me,positive thinking is the key of success. I am totally agree with it. The article told me about the advantages of positive thinking, and also the ways to develop the power of positive thinking.Positive thinking can bring our inner peace, happy, better health, and also satisfication.It help daily affairs of life move more smoothly, and make life look bright and promising.The ways to develop positive thinking are always use only positive words like 'i can' and 'i am able'.Besides,you need to ignore negative thought.Before starting any plan,visualize with concentrate and faith.

    In my opinion, thinking positively is really very important.It brings result much more than just repeating the positive words. It has to be your predominant mental attitude.
    Positive thinking is contagious.People around will pick your mood and affected.Everyone will enjoy the vibration that a positive mind emits.So,whatever you do, develop positive thinking and expect a successful outcome,take necessary action to ensure your success. Then, we will more easy to success.So, please develop positive thinking.

  5. I have read an article about the latest version of Microsoft operating system (OS), Windows 7 and that's get me excited to waiting for it's release (expected to be on October 22nd). Although I still didn't have my own laptop (very dissapointed), I know that Windows 7 will be accomplish what to be expected as new generation of Windows. More faster, more user-friendly, that's what I want from the new Windows after many years dreadfully have to use Windows Vista. From time to time, Microsoft have developed an improvemet to its OS from the aspects of features, interfaces, performances and user-friendly. Windows 7 is what Vista should have been in the public eye which is a solid OS with plenty of modern eye candy that mostly succeeds in taking Windows usability into the 21st century.

    The article that i have read is a very straight-forward article. It tells us what Windows 7 have, what Windows 7 do and what Windows 7 needs. The language is quite easy to understand, although there are certain words or sentences that you might need to use a dictionary. The author have a done a very good research about Windows 7.

  6. I've read an article about a new technology of USB. USB, which stands for Universal Serial Bus is used on most computers and laptops for connecting peripherals such as pendrive, external hard disk, printer, keyboard, mouse and many others. Before this, there are USB 1.0 and USB 2.0.
    Most of the computers and laptops nowadays use USB 2.0. Lately, USB 3.0 is introduced. From this article, i can see there are many great specification that makes this USB 3.0 better than the previous version of USB. Firstly is the data transfer rate, for USB 1.0, the data transfer rate is 12Mbps, for USB 2.0 is 480Mbps and now, the latest technology, USB 3.0 has a data transfer rate of 4.8Gbps. That is 10 times faster than the USB 2.0's data transfer rate. Secondly, USB 3.0 can read and write at the same time from our portable storage device. This is because the lanes used for data transfer is separated, compared to the USB 1.0 and 2.0, the lanes are not separated. Thirdly, the USB 3.0 can charge more device and quicker than USB 1.0 and 2.0. One thing that really make me interested in this USB 3.0 and this article is when i read a statement. It mention that when transferring 27GB HD movie, it only takes 70 seconds if we use USB 3.0 but if we use USB 2.0 it will takes about 15 minutes or more. That's really shows a significant different between USB 3.0 and the older version.

    The article that i've read is easy to understand. Most of the words are simple. However, it uses quite much of computer terms like Unversal Serial Bus, interface, Extensible Host Controller Interface, chipsets, Superspeed devices and also some more other terms. But overall of this article is understandable for me.

  10. I have read an article about CCTV Wireless System. The company Doctor PC Solution has notice a pattern, more like a trend, and that trend is Security cameras and its affiliates are here to stay , and are not going anywhere. They provide in our everyday daily lives a necessity, and that necessity is safety, security, and a peace of mind.With security cameras that are not wireless,it has a tendency to get damage over a certain period of time, either the insides wires to the cables wear out, or the chip within that camera burns out, because that type of technology has been designed to last and endure only for a certain amount of time. Then comes the 1.2 and 2.4 GHZ wireless products.

    The language of this article is easy to understand, since I'am computer student.However the writter also use some words that I don't understand its meaning, 'skeptical', 'affiliates', and 'hassle'.

  11. i have read about the an article Cnet.download. This web is acctully has been given by MR.FAIRUZ. This web told us about how to download a new softwere in free witout a payment. But you have to register the sofware at world wide and print the slip then after that u can run without any hackers. There's a lot of software that you can download such as mp3 palyer, video conveter or a compress document and so on. so this web and this an article is valuable for us to find another version for our computer or laptop and the important is, can make us easy when doing our work.

    The language tha use in this article is easy to understand but its complicated to do a summary in our mind. You might use a dictionary maybe to know the word's meaning. But, for those people who always keep in touch about this 'world wide', mybe the language its not hard as far as other.huhu..

  13. I had read a article about the history of CD. In 1979, the Philips and Sony corporations joined forces to coproduce the CD-DA (Compact Disc-Digital Audio) standard. Philips had already developed commercial laserdisc players, and Sony had a decade of digital recording research under its belt. The two companies were poised for a battle the introduction of potentially incompatible audio laser disc formats when instead they came to terms on an agreement to formulate a single industry-standard digital audio technology. In 1980, the companies announced the CD-DA standard, which has since been referred to as the Red Book format (so named because the cover of the published document was red). The Red Book included the specifications for recording, sampling, andabove allthe 120mm (4.72") diameter physical format you live with today. This size was chosen, legend has it, because it could contain all of Beethoven's approximately 70-minute Ninth Symphony without interruption.

    The article are quite messy but still can understand. The language that the article use are simple.

  17. Green Laptops. The title itself makes me want to read this article. "Green Laptop" tell us about notebook and the environtment. Based on this article, we can help the environment by makig the right decision, whether to buy a notebook computer or a desktop pc. A notebook is of couse more environmentally friendly compared to desktop pc because of the smaller size. This small size gives less environment impact on disposal and also relase fewer emmision. Notebook uses less power and lead-free which is good for the environment. There are of couse many choices of notebook which can help the environtmant. There is some notebook mention in this article as "green laptop" such as the Sony Vaio TXN, the Apple MacBook, the Gateway SX100, and the HP NC2400. So think wisely before buying a notebook.

    This article is understandable but there are quite a few new words. It also uses simple language. So, this article can be understand by most poeple.

  21. Articles about "avoid being a crazy woman" might have a great criticize by women, but instead I find it true and interesting. First and for most, this article is talking about human nature which strictly refers to woman. Crazy woman is actually stressful woman. Woman with stress, most probably will do crazy things which lead us to call them as crazy woman.Now days, woman are not only involves in family housework but also in their career as well. This is the main factor of making a woman crazy.
    About this article, I think that it is easy to read and it is a great information to all of us as well. It is also suitable for teenagers to read as a mental preparation for their future.

  22. Hi sir. Home to millions of species, including humans, Earth is the only place in the universe where life is known to exist. The planet formed 4.54 billion years ago, and life appeared on its surface within a billion years. Since then, Earth's biosphere has significantly altered the atmosphere and other abiotic conditions on the planet, enabling the proliferation of aerobic organisms as well as the formation of the ozone layer which, together with Earth's magnetic field, blocks harmful radiation, permitting life on land. The physical properties of the Earth, as well as its geological history and orbit, allowed life to persist during this period. The world is expected to continue supporting life for another 1.5 billion years, after which the rising luminosity of the Sun will eliminate the biosphere.
    Earth's outer surface is divided into several rigid segments, or tectonic plates, that gradually migrate across the surface over periods of many millions of years. About 71% of the surface is covered with salt-water oceans, the remainder consisting of continents and islands; liquid water, necessary for all known life, is not known to exist on any other planet's surface. Earth's interior remains active, with a thick layer of relatively solid mantle, a liquid outer core that generates a magnetic field, and a solid iron inner core.

  23. One of my friends has just bought a new laptop with Windows 7 as the Operating System(OS). For more info, I've decided to read from the net. Actually, Windows 7 or formerly codenamed Blackcomb and Vienna is the latest version of Microsoft Windows, a series of operating systems produced by Microsoft for use on personal computers. It is now including home and business desktops, laptops, netbooks, tablet PCs and media center PCs. Officially, it was released for manufacturing on July 22, 2009 and with general retail availability set for October 22, 2009,[4] less than three years after the release of its predecessor, Windows Vista. Windows 7's server counterpart, Windows Server 2008 R2, is slated for release about the same time.
    People always say, we fall easily for what we see. My first impression about this newly introduced operating system is it has a very fine and beautiful graphics. Of course it still have the same concepts as the other Windows operating system but just a bit differences especially in its features. I'm not sure about the function yet because I do not have the opportunity to experience it. In the future I think, soon and lately I will explore on Windows 7.

  24. Hello Sir. I have read an article about Massage. Massage is one of the oldest, simplest forms of therapy that many find it beneficial. It is a system of stroking, pressing and kneading different areas of the body to relieve pain, relax, stimulate and tone the body. Massage, which originated about 4000 years ago, was initially used for healing purposes.

    Massage mainly affects the muscles under the skin but can benefit the deep layers of muscles and organs, depending on the pressure and technique used. Massage stimulates blood circulation and improves the elimination of waste from the body. A good massage also improves breathing and keeps us healthy and alert.

    The language that the article use is quite simple and easy to understand.
