Social Media-A good thing or a Bad Thing

Social media is a good thing or a bad thing? That is the most frequently asked question today. Well, there
are always two sides of everything; it depends on our perspective on how we perceive it. The same goes for social
media, most people admire it as a revolutionary invention and some seem to take it as a negative impact on the
society.
According to new psychological research, people who spend too much time on social media network share
likely to show signs of other behavioral problems. Excessive use of net working sites such as face book, can lead to
poor academic grades and anti-social behavior. The negative effects of excessive use of social net working sites are
especially seen in teens who can become depressed and aggressive.
The same study also finds some positive aspects in using social networking sites. The biggest positive
social effect networking has on young adults is helping them communicate better with each other. Sites like face
book help adults to understand each other and helps promote communication, which in turn helps some young
adults get out of their anti-social tendencies. In the long-run, the confidence gained by communication with people
will become beneficial in the classroom and the work place.
We have mentioned a few negative and positive points of social media, but it doesnt explain that social
media is good or a bad thing. It stands somewhere in between. You will remain wary in spite of these examples that
either social media is a good or bad thing for society.

As the national exam is an annual activity organized by Education and Culture Ministry, it can be
prepared for as early as possible. It is very difficult to understand why the implementation of this years exam
was so chaotic.
I think it was caused by poor management within the central committee, so the minister should be
responsible for its implementation. In an era where all activities can be supported by advanced technology, 11
provinces had to delay the exam due to the failure in the distribution of exam materials.
The quality of education reflects the progress of the nation. Therefore, the ministry needs to
thoroughly assess its failure.

Drivers get tips if tourists shop at market
BY NUR AMINAH ON 2013-04-04
Singakerta customary village administrators have implemented a unique policy. They are tipping
drivers who manage to bring tourists to Singakerta market in Ubud.
The policy, agreed during a meeting at the customary village last month, was taken in a bid to attract
more visitors to the market.
The market used to host a large number of souvenir and handicraft traders relocated there due to
major renovation being carried out at the main Ubud market in downtown Ubud. Despite the presence of
these traders, the market failed to attract many tourists. Now, these traders have returned to the brand new
Ubud main market and Singakerta village administrators fear that the number of visitors to their market will
further decrease.

This text is for question 31 and 32.

Sultan Agung of Mataram or Sultan Agung Anyokro Kusumo or Sultan Agung Hanyokrokusumo
was the Sultan of Mataram in Central Java from 1613-1645. He commissioned the building of the Karta
Palace in 1614, and the Royal Graveyard of Imogiri.
Sultan Agung (literally, Great Sultan or Majestic Sultan) is subject of a substantial amount of
literature due to his legacy as a Javanese ruler, a fighter of Dutch colonialists (In the form of the Dutch East
India Company), and his existence within a cultural framework where myth and magic are well intertwined
with verifiable historical events and personages.
Agung was responsible for the great expansion and lasting historical legacy of Mataram due to
extensive military conquests during his long reign.

A. Explanation of Sultan Agung.

The Last Samurai is a war movie, no doubt about it. There are several large battle scenes that are stirring

Algren without even knowing hes doing it seeks redemption and a return to honour in his own life. The film
parallels the fate of the samurai to that of American Indians, taking a slightly subversive slap at American
capitalist imperialism (which remains that nations primary motivation in dealing with the rest of the world).
Visually attractive, this film is a huge success because its midsection set in the samurai village is
intelligent, gentle and patiently treated. Algren cleans up his act and learns the way of the samurai gradually,
theres no magical transformation here, so its utterly believable that a burnt-out American drunk could be
transformed into an honourable samurai warrior.
Great to look at and respectful of its subject matter, The Last Samurai is an epic with excitement, brains and
heart.

(

Sure enough, when he arrived home, his wife was using a new pail. However
she was not contented and wanted a new house. The fisherman hurried back to
the sea. Again, the gold fish granted his request and told him to return home.
Again the fishermans wife was not satisfied. She then wanted to be a wealthy
lady. The fisherman returned to the sea for the third time and again his wifes
wish was granted .She wore beautiful clothes and expensive jewels.

When he reached home, he told his wife about the goldfish. She was
furious on learning that her husband had been so silly. She showed him a broken
wooden pail and told him to ask the gold fish for a new one. The sea was calm
when the fisherman reached there. When the goldfish learnt of his wifes request,
it surely granted it.

Long ago, there lived an old couple by the sea. The old man was a fisherman
and his wife was a weaver. Once, the old man caught a goldfish which could
talk. Promising that it will repay him, the goldfish begged for its release. Without
any condition, the fisherman let it go.

When the fisherman went home, all the riches had disappeared. He saw his
wife sitting outside their hut, holding the broken wooden pail and looking very
unhappy.

The fisherman thought that his wife should be satisfied now that she had
become rich. However, he was mistaken. A few days later, his wife commanded
him to ask the goldfish to make her a queen. Moreover, she wanted the goldfish
to serve her as well.

Before the trembling fisherman could speak to the gold fish, it asked him to
return home to tell his wife that greed does not pay.
