Friezzer'S: All Reading

Reading

One of man’s greatest achievements is the ability to put down

In printed or written words his ideas and feelings. The ability to

Read those words is just as great an achievements.

Recognizing words and understanding them and reading

Critically are basic skills that apply to all reading situations. These

Skills are necessary for the specialized reading that students do in

Science, mathematics, and social studies. The reading of history or

Geography, for example, requires an intensive type of reading,

Science requires the reading of formulas, laboratory manuals, and

Numerous illustrations and diagrams.

Learning to read with a high level of efficiency requires

Instruction beyond the primary and elementary grades. As the

student progresses in school the reading content becomes more

difficult. More material must be covered, and he must learn to

read faster. As a result, the reading begun at the primary level

and broadened at the elementary level is extended and refined on

the junior and senior high school levels.

What people read and the values they get from reading are

As important as learning to read. Signs of reading maturity include

The ability to recognize and select quality material and to appreciate

Fine writing. Personal and social growth through reading is promoted

In several ways. Teachers guide discussion of stories in order to bring

Out their values and patterns for behaviour. Students are encouraged

to select books or other materials related to their own interests and

needs.

By geologis, most South-East Asia region passed by mountain of

young fold of Mediterranean band. Mountain of this Mediterranean

start from mountain of Arakan Yoma in

Myanmar

as continuation

mountain of Himalaya to Your Mountain and Nikobar in northside

Sumatra, continue to mountain of Mountain Range in Sumatra, mountain

unfolding from west easterly Island of jawa, Archipelago of Nusa

South-East, and end in sea of Banda. In territorial water of Sibolga

direction go out to sea Banda happened meeting of Sirkum Mediterranean

with Sirkum Pacific. Thereby, there are some equation had Asian Nations

area of south-east. The Pesamaan-persamaan can in the form of natural

form, climate, and also fauna and flora. Equation of natural form and

climate cause equality of natural by natural symptom every State

a. Natural Form

South-East Asia lay in meeting three big plate of earth, that is plate of

Eurasia, Plate of Indo-Australia, and Pacific plate. Hence from that,

most Asian continent region of mountainous south-east and most island

formed of by activity of vulkanik. Existence of meeting of ground plate

cause Asia south-east represent labile region, its meaning often happened

earthquake. Most Asian region of south-east also encircled sea and emit

a stream of great rivers. This matter cause some of region mangrove forest

marsh. Existence of great river also create the existence of delta as fertile

agriculture area.

b. Climate

Regional of Asia South-East have tropical climate. Hence from that,

individuality had this area high rainfall. The condition cause most

South-East Asia region have close tropical forest, as in

Indonesia

Malaysia, Myanmar and of Brunei Darussalam Regional of Asia

South-East which is have natural tropical climate to 2 season, that is

dry season and rain. Though most of all region have tropical climate,

there is also region owning low rain rainfall as in Timor Leste, as a

result in this area many there are grassland.

c. Flora and Fauna

Regional of ASEAN divided to become three region of biologis, that is:

1). Zone Flora and Asia animal

This Zone is limited by line of Wallace that strarting from

westside Archipelago Philippine, to south till strait of Makassar

and Lombok Strait

2). Zone Flora and Australian animal

This Zona cover Irian and Australian with boundary mark

with lines Weber.

3). Zona of Transasi

This Zona cover Archipelago Of Philippine, Sulawesi, Moluccas,

West Nusa Tenggara Nusa South-East east, and Timor Leste.

Indonesia

’s population is a mixture of different ethnic grups.

From island to island – and even within each island – different

Languages are spoken and different customs are observed. There are

About 250 languages and dialects used on the islands of Indonesia.

Each of these represents a group of people that considers itself culturally

Distinct. But there is a basic unity underlying this variety, since most

Of the languages belong to the Malayu-Polynesia group. The official

National language is

Indonesia

(Bahasa Indonesia), a variety of malay,

Which was previously the traditional trading language of the island.

It is generally familiar to Indonesians everywhere and is the language

Used in education and government.

The geographic setting gives Indonesia the historical name of

Nusantara. Nusa is the Indonesian word for “island”, and antara means

“between”. The name refers to the fact that Indonesia is stuated

Between the Indian and Pacific oceans and the continents of Asia and

Australia.

One often hears the phrase Nusantara Indonesia, which means

“

Indonesia

archipelago”. But although the term Nusantara may sound

More poetic, it cannot take the place of the name “Indonesia”. For

“Indonesia” expresses more accurately the political and national

Identification of the Indonesian people. It is interesting to note that

The term “

Indonesia

’ was first used in 1850 by English scoholars.

Therefore, when Indonesian independence was proclaimed in 1945,

the name was already nearly a century old.

Politically speaking, the meaning of “

Indonesia

” had become

Firmly established some years earlier, on October 28, 1928, at the

Second congress of Indonesian Youth, in Jakarta. On that day,

The Sumpah Pemuda (“youth oath”) was proclaimed, expressing

The now,”one fatherland, one nation, One Language: Indonesia’.

After that meeting, Indonesian nationalists began an intensified

Effort to formulate a single national identity that would unite all

Indonesians regardless of ethnic and regional differences.

The day of the youth Oath is generally accepted as marking

The beginning of a national consciousness and a sense of unity

Among the Indonesian people.

Although there is a cultural diversity in Indonesia one will

Observe a similiraty in the way of life, especially in some important

Activities the families of a community always take part. They work

Together and help one another. Bhineka Tunggal Ika means although

We have different cultures and come from different ethnic groups,

Indonesia

Tourism

Speaking about tourist objects in Indonesia, it is hard

To count the number. If a tourist wants to see only 50 percent

Of them. 15 days non-stop will not be sufficient. There are

Various maritime tourist objects like the live aquarium and

Beautiful beaches where people can swim and take sunbath.

There are large lakes which are calm and beautiful, surrounded

By dense and virgin jungles with various kind of trees which

Look green from a distance. There are excursion by motorboats

Or water skiing in the Toba lake in North Sumatra which is

About 1.300 km2 wide and in the centre there is Samosir Island

And tourists can enjoy the traditional culture and customs which

Are still original.

There are also large rivers which are navigational or

Where the local inhabitants use rivers as means of transport,

Like those in South Sumatera and Kalimantan. There are a

Number of waterfalls and various forms of caves which are

Decorated by stalagtite and stalagnite rocks which are

Beautiful because of the natural artistic shape.

Various cultures and customs of the Indonesian

Tribes which are still original can be observed in various

Regions like the ‘kraton’ (palace) in Central Java, Yogyakarta,

Cirebon, Kalimantan etc.

Quite impressive handicraft produced by traditional

Methods, like weaving Products of West NusaTenggara, East

Timor etc. and many more can be seen and enjoyed.

Selling something cannot be separated from promotion,

So is tourism. Without any promotion we will not obtain

What we have been expecting, and promotion is closely

Linked with funds. Like catching a large fish, a man has

To employ a large bait. With additional fund for the

Promotion of tourism in Indonesia, there is an indication

That tourism will have a bright prospect in this country.

Besides promotion, services and the provision of facilities

Should be professionally managed.

Moon Landing

At 9.56 a.m. West Indonesia time on Monday July 21, 1969,

The American astronaut Neil Amstrong made history by becoming

The first man to step on the moon. As hundreds of millions of men

Watched and listened on the planet Earth 240.000 miles away,

Neil Amstrong lifted his foot from the landing pad of his ship,

The ‘Eagle’, and slowly and carefully, pressed it into the moon’s

Surface. Testing his ability to walk in the weak lunar gravity – one

Sixth of that on earth – he moved slowly in his space suit. He

Found that he could move easily. With increasing confidence,

He began to move away from ‘Eagle’. He was greatly surprised

To look at his footprints in the soft moon sand. He was so pleased

With the new experience that he almost forgot about his task of

Collecting a small sample of lunar soil, and had to be reminded

About it,

He collected the sample and put it into a pocket on the

Left leg of his suit. If he had to leave the moon earlier than

Planned, this sample would be the only lunar soil that he

Brought back to earth. Taking a long look at the view around

him, Neil Amstrong said: ”…. It’s different, but it’s pretty

out here.”

From the time the spaceship Apollo 11 left the earth

at 8.32 p.m. on July 16, the journey to the moon had been

full of tense moment, in the last ten miles alone there were

two such moment, either one of which could have caused

a failure. The computer, which was part of the ship’s

navigation system, warned that it was being asked to do

too much work and had to start from the beginning again.

If the computer had done that, Neil Amstrong would have

To return into orbit. without the information from the computer,

he would not have been able to make the landing. Luckily a

solution was found immediately all the data were sent to

another computer on earth, and the necessary information

was sent back to “Eagle”. This saved the mission. But it

would have been a failure if the solution had not been found

out in time.

For reasons which were not known the computer

Guided the ship to a crater full of large stones instead

\of to a smooth filed. Neil Amstrong acted immediately

\to choose a better site. If he had not done that, the ship

Would have landed in the crater. If that had happened,

One of the large stones might have tilted the ship.

It would not have been able to leave the moon if, for

The Importance of English

Personality, and to those interested in, and dependent upon you. It

Is, after all, something we all strive for and in your fight for success,

What better help can you have than a good command of English. It

Power, and enhance your social life. It can, in short, have an

Enormous effect on both your happiness and your prosperity.

Many other international organizations. It is also the international

Language of the sea and of the airlines. When Heads of Government

Meet, English is the language most often used. When people of different

The ASEAN

An international cooperation is not always agreeable. The

Scope is so wide that it doesn’t agree with the condition and

Situation of a certain region. The super power – The United States

And The Soviet Union – often make use of this international

Cooperation for their own sake.

The rise of many countries in Latin America, Africa, and

Asia has given inspiration and created regional cooperation.

This cooperation is more agreeable, because of the many

Similarities existing among the regions: geographical condition,

Race or language family.

One of the regional cooperation realizations in Asia is

ASEAN (The Association of the South East Asia Nations).

This association is a regional cooperation. It has something

To do with economy, education, culture, and tourism.

ASEAN was founded on August 8, 1967 in Bangkok.

The ASEAN declaration was signed by the

Representatives of five countries namely, the Philippines,

Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and

Indonesia

The goals of this association include accelerating

The economic growth, social progress and cultural

Development among the members, promoting peace

And regional stability by respecting justice, law and

The principles of UNO’s charters, supporting the members

In the form of training and researches on education,

Technology, profession and administration, and maintaining

A firm, useful cooperative work.

In its wider sense the ASEAN mutual cooperation

Develops scientific, economic, social, and cultural progress.

The cooperation between ASEAN and the developing

Countries is also carried out in the filed of culture.

As a rule, these countries, which have organized economic

cooperation with the ASEAN members, provide scholarship

for technical and cultural development.

Although ASEAN is not a military pact, it feels

Necessary to increase alertness by organizing an allied

Military flight training between Malaysia and

Indonesia
