http://studenthacks.org/2007/10/12/study-effectively/


Everybody in the world needs to study. But they know whether the ways of their study is the best or just a study but did not learn anything. To study, there are many ways form the easiest to the hardest. But people are more likely to take the hardest one. But only a few of them take the easiest way of study.
I chose this article because I want to share how to study with the effective way. Like me, I always study but did not get what I have studied. This article is about the way of effective study. There are eight ways for effective study and also called as eight concentration strategies. The first is eat frequent small meals to prevent the body feel sleepy and make sure do not starve yourself. The second is study when you are sharpest. This way asked we to do study the difficult subject when you are mentally at the best and study the less difficult when the mentally is less efficient. The third is  drink water  often to prevent you feel sluggish and use caffeine to help you to stay awake. The fourth is do not get too comfortable with your chair. Choose only the chair with a support at the back to support your back. Next is clear the desk from everything that do not need to prevent distraction and increasing the anxiety. The sixth way is to have a break every hour of study. This is to prevent from feeling tire and lose concentration and to sustain the concentration level. The seventh way is stretch during the breaks to release tension in the body and help circulation. Finally, the eight way is to study at the same time and same place.
I feel quite agree with this article because it help the to build the concentration level and trying to do not let the student feel stress when study.
For the conclusion, we should study as best as we can. Do not pull ourselves to the limit because it can cause trouble. Study with smart, do not study with hard.

Article review: Type of road accident

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_accident_types


Every day we heard many cases about road accident happening around us. Are they did not love their life in this world or just want to killing themselves because cannot stand with the ways of the people around treating them? We know that the main cause of the road accident is the driver attitude. The causes of road accident is many, but there are only four types of road accident, such as lane departure crashes, accidents at junction, accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists and collisions with animals.
I choose this article because most of people do not know about type of road accident. That why I chose this article. I want people know what kind of accident happen around them. I also want to learn what of collision occur around me. I usually read about the causes and preventions of road accident.
 There are four types of road accident which are lane departure crashes, accidents at junction, accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists and collisions with animals. In lane departure crashes usually occur when a driver leaves the lane and crash with another vehicle such as car and lorry or roadside object like roadside divider and sign board. There are two types of collision occur in this accident which are head on collisions and run-off-road collisions. Next is the accident at junctions which is including rear-end collision and angle or side impacts. This type of road accident usually occur at T-junction and traffic light when vehicle break through the red light. The third type of road accident is the accidents involving pedestrians and cyclists. In this type of road accident usually occur at city road where many moving everywhere and on that time also pedestrians also want to cross the road and the cyclists try to evading the car from being hit against the car body. The last type of road accident is the collisions with animals. This accident usually occur in village road because many of cows, goats, chickens and goose are not tied. So many of them enter the road and block the road. The most dangerous is during night because that animals is hard to see in dark.
I like this article because it gave me more knowledge about road accident.
For the conclusion, road accident can be reduce if everybody care about everybody and follow the rules when driving.

The power of time


Time is precious because the no way we can get back the time that we use for nothing. Like Mr. Krab said time is money. But in real world, time is gold. This is show that how precious time it is. Time is a thing that we can use and spend. Time is not waiting for us, but we need to chase the time. Time can be category in many terms such as term of business, term of study and the term of work.
Time in term of business is about time to making investment and making agreement with others businessman. In business, time is very important because it show the attitude of a company. If a company is always come on time to make the agreement, the agreement to be accepted is high. This is show how high the commitment of the company to the agreement.
Besides that, time also can be used in term of study. In school, estimated time for study is about eight hours. Pupils are catching the time to get the knowledge. But some of the pupils does not care about time. They think that they have enough time to study at home, but when they at home, they spend their time with unimportant activity such as playing video game and watching cartoon or anime. But for student that used the time wisely usually spend it with revision, reading book, and finishing the homework.
Next, is time in term of work. Everybody needs to arrive to the work place on time. Even going interview also must be on time. If we always be on time, it show our attitude, commitment and responsible to our work. When there is a work need to be done, we should not extend the work until the submission date. If that happen, we do the work in hurry the quality of the work will unsatisfied.
For the conclusion, time is so precious to human and every living thing because if we do not use the time wisely, the result will we get is poor. So we need use the time that are given with useful thing such as reading, finishing the homework or work and do the revision.

Stress


                Stress is the main factor causing suicide. Suicide can happen in many ways, such as jump out from the higher building, driving the car recklessly and hang himself or herself. When people in stress, they cannot think wisely and rationally. There are many causes of stress, such as burden from work, family, and study.
                The burden from work can make someone feel stress because a lot of work can make someone felt tired and hard to focus on work. This will make the worker hard to finish the work on time. When the work is not done on time, they will get a warning from employers. This will increase their stress. This also can make the workers want to quit from the job. Normally, suicide because of work is less. When they quit from the job, they will feel happy and free from the burden of work.
                Next, the stress cause from family. Usually people can get stress because of the family problem. Mother and father will feel worried about their children if they did not see what their children doing. Children also can get stress if their parent did not care about them. This will make the child thinking that their parent did not love them anymore. Once they think no one love them even their friend, they will think to kill themselves. As a parent, they should not disobey about their children for to find the wealthy.
                The last cause of stress is the study or education. For example, when the student fail their examination, they will feel scare to show the result in front of their parent. Besides that, they will feel lonely because the students around have the good result. Usually, the failure students will think that they will fail even they have study very hard. As a student, we should not think that once we fail, we will fail forever. It is wrong. Many success people start with failure because they think that they can change the failure to the victory.
For the conclusion, the factor of stress that cause many suicide can be reduce by giving them a light of hope and bring them to counsellor for counselling session. This will changed their perspective about suicide because  of stress.
