  1. Hi sir.I would like to share with you some tips about healthy. In my opinion, to stay healthy we should follow some guide that keep us stay healthy. One of the tips that I would like to share is, know what the things that makes you overeat. So that we can control our eat and having the balance diet. In addition, control your environment to avoid being on high-calorie foods when you do feel disappointed, rejected, or bored. Keep your kitchen stocked with lots of healthy options such as chunks of fruits and veggies, low-fat yogurts, flavored waters, and sugar-free gum. Besides that, we need to do some exercises. this exercises help us to burn the fat in our body. If we can`t do the exercises, do it slowly and increase in time. Some people like to walk 15 minutes before or while going to the office. Last but not least, we have more to move around and less sit. This is because when we active, we not only decrease in weight, but also speed up our brain reaction.

  3. i have read an article about iPhone mobile.The iPhone is a remarkable invention in the field of computer and mobile sciences. It is a multimedia smart phone device that has an Internet connection to it. iPhone was designed by the famous Apple Inc. who marketed the product with some of the exceptional features that no one has seen or imagine before.The iPhone is a multi touch screen device which also offers a virtual keyboard when necessary. A typical touch screen device uses a slender pointed stylus, but an iPhone requires you to use fingers. It can also detect multiple touch points simultaneously, which many existing touch-screens cannot do. An iPhone sometimes seems to be a palmtop computer rather than a cellular phone. The simple reason for this is the internet features that this smart phone carries with it. One can browse the net, listen to music, download videos, play games, receive or send emails and text messages, import pictures from your computer and even click pictures with the in-built camera. The Wi-Fi connectivity that comes with an iPhone allows you to access your web anywhere.

    The language that used in this article is easy to understand by everyone.

  5. i have read an article about Chelsea Football Club, also known as The Blues or previously The Pensioners is a professional English football club based in West London. The team, founded in 1905, plays in the Premier League and have spent most of their history in the top tier of English football. Chelsea have been English champions three times, and have won the FA Cup five times, the League Cup four times and the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup twice.
    i think chelsea is the success club in world and not all club can beat chelsea.

  6. The acticle that i read is about machine translation. Machine translation, sometimes referred to by the abbreviation MT, is a sub-field of computational linguistics that investigates the use of computer software to translate text or speech from one natural language to another. At its basic level, MT performs simple substitution of words in one natural language for words in another. Using corpus techniques, more complex translations may be attempted, allowing for better handling of differences in linguistic typology, phrase recognition, and translation of idioms, as well as the isolation of anomalies.Current machine translation software often allows for customisation by domain or profession (such as weather reports) — improving output by limiting the scope of allowable substitutions. This technique is particularly effective in domains where formal or formulaic language is used. It follows then that machine translation of government and legal documents more readily produces usable output than conversation or less standardised text.Improved output quality can also be achieved by human intervention: for example, some systems are able to translate more accurately if the user has unambiguously identified which words in the text are names.
    This acticle there are alot of word that are quite tough to understand such like computational linguistics means study of language as expressed in samples (corpora) or "real world" text and linguistic typology means a subfield of linguistics that studies and classifies languages according to their structural features.Overall,the acticle study level for me is quite hard.

  7. I have read an article about air conditioning.Air conditioning refers to the cooling and dehumidification of indoor air for thermal comfort. In a broader sense, the term can refer to any form of cooling, heating, ventilation, or disinfection that modifies the condition of air.An air conditioner (often referred to as AC or air con.) is an appliance, system, or mechanism designed to stabilise the air temperature and humidity within an area (used for cooling as well as heating depending on the air properties at a given time), typically using a refrigeration cycle but sometimes using evaporation, commonly for comfort cooling in buildings and motor vehicles.Air conditioning engineers broadly divide air conditioning applications into comfort and process.

    Comfort applications aim to provide a building indoor environment that remains relatively constant in a range preferred by humans despite changes in external weather conditions or in internal heat loads.

    Air conditioning makes deep plan buildings feasible, for otherwise they'd have to be built narrower or with light wells so that inner spaces receive sufficient outdoor air via natural ventilation. Air conditioning also allows buildings to be taller since wind speed increases significantly with altitude making natural ventilation impractical for very tall buildings.

    Comfort applications for various building types are quite different and may be categorized as:

    -Low-Rise Residential buildings, including single family houses, duplexes, and small apartment buildings
    -High-Rise Residential buildings, such as tall dormitories and apartment blocks
    -Commercial buildings, which are built for commerce, including offices, malls, shopping centers, restaurants, etc.
    -Institutional buildings, which includes hospitals, governmental, academic, and so on.
    -Industrial spaces where thermal comfort of workers is desired.

    this article is quiet difficult to understand because they use high language in dscription.there are a lot of specific terms are used in this article.

  8. Today I want to write about International Space Station taht i had read afew minutes ago.The International Space Station (ISS) is an internationally developed research facility currently being assembled in Low Earth Orbit.The ISS is a joint project among the space agencies of multiple nations. These consist of the United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), Russian Federal Space Agency (RKA), Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), Canadian Space Agency (CSA) and the European Space Agency (ESA) of ten European nations. The Brazilian Space Agency (AEB) participates through a separate contract with NASA. The Italian Space Agency (ASI) has separate contracts for various activities not done within the framework of ESA's ISS projects, where Italy is a full participant. China has reportedly expressed interest in the project, especially if it would be able to work with the RKA. However, as of 2009[update] China is not involved because of objections from the United States.The International Space Station serves primarily as a research laboratory and is the largest satellite ever launched into orbit. The station offers an advantage over spacecraft such as NASA's Space Shuttle because it is a long-term platform in the space environment, allowing long-duration studies to be performed, both on specific experiments and on the human crews that operate them.The source of electrical power for the ISS is the Sun. Light is converted into electricity through the use of solar arrays.The ISS Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS) provides or controls elements such as atmospheric pressure, fire detection and suppression, oxygen levels, and water supply.The most cited figure of an overall cost estimate for the ISS ranges from 35 billion to 100 billion USD.


    that article use the standard english language and esay to understood.

  9. the article about Compaq Presario CQ40 is very interesting. The overall design of the Compaq Presario CQ40-115AU are the same as other Compaq Presario model by HP. It is quite attractive actually, with a sleek silver casing.

    The screen is big enough to work with your applications (max resolution 1280×800). I was looking for some bright and contrast buttons but it only has bright controls in the keyboard. Overall, I would say the image quality is good.

    It comes with a 2500GB SATA hard drive, so I would not download too much stuff.
    It also has a touch pad but I would rather use an usb mouse because I find it more precise and comfortable. I am using it without the battery because I know this way the battery’s life will last longer.

    The computer is fast; with its 2Gigs of DDR2 memory (Even running many applications at the same time) although I think that it would not be so good running actual video games. I tested the ATI Radeon hd3200 with a benchmark program and it did not made a good average.

    This article is reliable and easy to understand. the author did not use difficult words. A few of computing words is unavoidable.

  12. I have read an article about ballet.Do you know what makes Ballet dancing different from other forms of dance? Ballet is different from other dance forms, because it has very particular rules about. Ballet dancing is movement through space, rhythmic patterns in time, control and release of energy, an awareness of the body in movement, a way to communicate without using words, means to tell a story or express an idea.
    People have always danced. Before there were languages people danced as a way to show how they felt and what they were thinking. To this day dance is an important part of the rituals of many cultures and of significant social importance. People have danced for many reasons- to entertain other people, to express themselves to others, to have fun with friends, to show the special traits of their culture, to express their faith, to keep their bodies fit and healthy, to learn new dances.
    Ballet dance is divide into 5 styles that are Ballet d’action, classical ballet, contemporary ballet, neoclassical ballet, and also romantic ballet. Ballet is also good exercise mentally. It requires a great deal of focus where your mind lets go of other thoughts. When class is over, your mind returns to the daily norm, but from a clearer, refreshed perspective.
    This articles use simple language and I found that it is easy to understand. Moreover, the technical descrption is very specific, there is a lot of features. Thus, we may know the details informations about ballet dance.

  14. Hello sir, for the last comment I would like to talk about language. Actually, language helps us communicate with one another. We speak and communicate with others in our native language. However, when one emigrates, it gives rise to possible friction between the first and the second generation because they do not speak the same native language. This has an adverse impact on their children as they then lose touch with their native language and eventually face the possibility of losing their ethnic identity.
    We need to be aware that language is vital and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an extra effort to help their children understand their native culture and heritage by teaching them their native language. This is essential, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation to establish their identity.

    The language used in this article is easy to understand.

  15. For the last article, i had read a article about the Ceremonies for the Hungry Ghost festival.As ceremonies for the Hungry Ghost festival become grander over the years, there is now a call to go back to the basics-and save the environment in the process.There are six days of the month-long Hungry Ghost Festival and giantjoss sticks,the strong smell of burning incense,and makeshift stages are still dominate in Chinese neighbourhoods.The festival,which started on Aug 20 and ends this Friday,is celebrated by Chinese the world over.In Malaysia,the Chinese,notably those from the Hokkkien community,celebrate this festival in a big way.The 14th day of the seventh lunar month is especially vedimportant as it is widely believed that the gates of hell are opeened and the dead are allowed to roam the earth on this day.

    Since Aug20,the Chinese from all walks of life have been placing sumptuous offering of food and burning joss stricks,candles,paper offerings and "hell bank notes"at roadside.These offerings are meant for the wandering and hungry souls to prevent them from disturbing the living,who will then have pease of mind and whose businesses will continue to prosper.Culturally,the Chinese believe that appeasing the hungry ghosts and their ancestors during the festival would also enable the living ones to accumulate merit that they can use if they aresent to hell upon their death.Changing with the times,modern families now bring Kentucky Fried Chicken instead of the steamed chicken in the past.After praying,the family would eat the fried chicken adding that the respect for the ancestors was not reduced with theusage of fried chicken.

    In this article the languege use is easy to understand and quiet interesting.It also tell the generation now, the difference before and now the ceremonies for the Hungry Ghost Festival.

  16. In this article ,I found out that the precursor to the alarm clock was the striking clock,which dates back to the Chinese Buddhist monk and inventor Yi Xing(683-727).The use the striking clock mechanisms in clock towers dated back to the Chinese engineers in the 10th and 11th centuries,respectively.
    The prime use of alarm clock is to awaken people from their sleep in order to start their days in the morning,but also can be used for short naps;they are sometimes used for the reminders as well.
    It help me to clarify some of my curiosity about the alarm clock that I use every day.this article can also make me figure out whether the alarm clock the I use daily is safety or the otherwise.

  17. The article about calculator is a device that is used for performing mathematical calculations. It differs from a computer by having a limited problem solving ability and an interface optimized for interactive calculation rather than programming. Calculators can be hardware or software, mechanical or electronic, and are often built into devices such as PDAs or mobile phones.


    Modern calculators are electrically powered (usually by battery and/or solar cell) and vary from cheap, give-away, credit-card sized models to sturdy adding machine-like models with built-in printers. Computer operating systems as far back as early Unix have included interactive calculator programs such as dc and hoc, and calculator functions are included in almost all PDA-type devices (save a few dedicated address book and dictionary devices).

    The calculators does help me a lot in solving my work, especially in mathematics.

  18. This article is about the Amazon river which is the largest river of South America in the world by volume, with a total river flow greater than the next eight largest rivers combined. The Amazon, which has the largest drainage basin in the world. During the wet season parts of the Amazon exceed 190 kilometers (120 mi) in width. Because of its vast dimensions, it is sometimes called The River Sea.

    More than one third of all species in the world live in the Amazon Rain forest, a giant tropical forest and river basin with an area that stretches more than 5.4 million square kilometers and is among the richest tropical forests in the world. The Amazon River has over 3,000 recognized species of fish and that number is still growing. Some estimates go as high as 5,000. The anaconda snake is found in shallow waters in the Amazon basin. One of the world's largest species of snake, the anaconda spends most of its time in the water, with just its nostrils above the surface. The river also supports thousands of species of fish, as well as crabs, algae, and turtles.
    I knew a lot about the Amazon River is much more dangerous than I ever expected .Not every human beings got the bravery to experience the river and not advisable to went there without any experience tour guide.

  23. I have an article about digital camera.It used for takes photo or video.Many compact digital still cameras can record sound and moving video as well as still photographs. In the Western market, digital cameras outsell their 35 mm film counterparts.

    Digital cameras can do things film cameras cannot displaying images on a screen immediately after they are recorded, storing thousands of images on a single small memory device, recording video with sound, and deleting images to free storage space. Some can crop pictures and perform other elementary image editing. Fundamentally they operate in the same manner as film cameras, typically using a lens with a variable diaphragm to focus light onto an image pickup device. The combination of the diaphragm and a shutter mechanism is used to admit the correct amount of light to the imager, just as with film; the only difference is that the image pickup device is electronic rather than chemical.

    The article is quite long but simple to understand.There are many terms in physic such as focal length, focus point, image and so on.

  24. Power supply is a reference to a source of electrical power. A device or system that supplies electrical or other types of energy to an output load or group of loads is called a power supply unit or PSU.

    The term is most commonly applied to electrical energy supplies, less often to mechanical ones, and rarely to others.

    In this article,it explain cleary about the type of electrical supply cleary and the contribution provided in each generation .This make me more appreciate about the environment .

  25. For the last comment, I would like to share the lyric of my favourite song. It's not a hip hop song and others. It's an encourage song with the meaningful lyric. When you feel hopeless, helpless, listen to this song and you will full of energy.

    In younger days,
    I told myself my life would be my own
    And I'd leave the place where sunshine never shone
    For my life's too short for waiting
    when I see the rising sun
    Then I know again that I must carry on
    Carry on till tomorow
    there's no reason to look back
    Carry on, carry on, carry on
    Beyond the shadows of the clouds
    and onward to the sky
    Carry on till I find the rainbow's end
    For my life's too short for waiting
    when I see the rising sun
    Then I know again that I must carry on
    Carry on till tomorow
    there's no reason to look back
    Carry on, carry on, carry on

    Drifting on the wings of freedom
    leave this stormy day
    And we'll ride to tomorrow's golden fields
    For my life's too short for waiting
    when I see the rising sun
    Then I know again that I must carry on
    Carry on till tomorow
    there's no reason to look back
    Carry on, carry on, carry on

    And when the heavy journey's done
    I'll rest my weary head
    For the world and it's colours will be mine
    For my life's too short for waiting
    when I see the setting sun
    Then I know again that I must carry on
    Carry on till tomorow
    there's no reason to look back
    Carry on, carry on, carry on......

    This song can give encourage to us, to carry on. THE LYRIC IS EASY TO UNDERSTAND.

  26. Nowadays everyone like to hear music.There many device that can play music such as radio,cd,dvd player and tv itself.The problem is people nowadays are searching for entertaiment to come in hanyy or portable.So,the people wanted a music that can all the criteria in the above."Microsoft Zune mp3 player" is the answer.This is a digital mp3 player and radio which supported almost all type of audio.The 120GB Microsoft Zune MP3 player has expanded the usefulness of its Wi-Fi and social music-discovery features, added support for games and audiobooks, and maintained enviable features, such as a 3.2-inch glass LCD, friendly interface, exceptional navigation control, audio- and video-podcast support, superlative FM radio, wireless syncing, good audio quality, and a built-in composite-video output.The Zune 120, with a unique focus on music discovery, is a fierce competitor to the iPod Classic. The Zune's substantial storage capacity combined with its Zune Pass music subscription makes it an ideal solution for restless music fans with large appetites.Although this one of best mp3 player, but it also some disadavantages.Battery life isn't great; high-quality earbuds are no longer included; the glossy plastic front is more prone to scratches and smudges; and using many of the new features without a Zune Pass music subscription can be disappointing.



    This article is easy to understand.The language that used in this article is easy mode and can be understand by all type of user.There is some scientific that related to camera used in this article such as megapixel,resolution and many more.There is no usage of dialect language in this article.
