My sad story

When i thought of writing this story, I assumed it would be easy .it would simply be a discharge of
sentiments that i have kept for aquite a long time,and now ,for me to say firmly that its settled and
over ,I had to open the box where Id hidden my true and finally step-out of it.

Meeting him at my cousins grade party a year Earlier Before We Were Officially On,We First Found
Ourselves Disliking Each Other. I Was Annoyed By This Pride .He Was Irrtated Because I Was
Snobbish .But ,When We Learned More About Each Other ,We Found Ourselves On The Same Wave
Length,And Then It Happened :WE Were Both Estatic When We Became Acouple

Three months after our second year anniversary ,I noticed hius silence ,when I probed what was
wrong ,he told me theres nothing to be concerned about .he was just stressed with schoolwork
,he said ,and so I brushed it off although at the back of my mind ,my instinct was hinting a different
story

We were on the phone one day when he hesitatingly broke the blowing line .we need to talk
........... .he confirmed my suspicious .he had been involved with another woman .I recollect an
accident when he accused me of seeing another guy ,
Read the following information carefully!

Every year thousands of people die, due to wheather related problems. This has been a particular
problem in Europe over the last few years. It can happen in both winter and in summer. Lets
examine the causes for a moment. The year 2003 was a time of extreme cold in the winter. Extreme,
that is by European standards. In Britain alone, the number of people who died from cold-related
illnesses was described as shameful. Nearly twenty-five thousand people died from illnesses such
as strokes, heart attacks, bronchitis, flu and pneumonia. Each of these deaths were though to have
been caused by the cold weather. A campaign called The cold can kill was launched to give people
advice on how to survive the effects of t he cold wheather and freezing temperatures. In the
summer of t he same year, around twenty-three thousand people died in Europe due to the sizzling
temperatures. France was particulary badly hit, with nearly fifteen thousand death which were
related to the sweltering heat. In Britain, the number of heat-related death was much lower than the
number of winter deaths. Even so, with temperatures reaching 38oC, the government issued advice
to people on how to protect their health. This advice warned that it only took two consecituve days
of high temperatures to have significant effects on peoples health. It said that people who became
overheated and dehydrated ran the risk of irreversible damage to the body or even death. (Adapted

INGGRIS- set 2

Mr. Pomat, a Malupit shop owner, called a meeting to find out the views of the community
on local government plants to close the Malupit Community School at the end of the present
school year.
Mr. Pomat acted as chairman of the meeting. He introduced Mr. K.Kazarin, the planning
Officer of the Raval Education Department. Mr. Kazarin pointed out that there were now
only fifty-three children at Malupit Community School. This was considered too high a
number for one class under one teacher; and too low a number for the forming of two classes
and the employment of two teacher. Mrs. Luvako, who had taught at the school for the past
twenty-two years, would be retiring from the teaching service in July. The Planning Office
wished to take this opportunity to close the school, because it is expensive to run, and to
move the children to two bigger schools in Raval, six miles away
Mrs. Jarvis, the mother of an eight-year-old boy at Malupi, asked what would happen about
transport to Raval. Mr.Kazarin replied that the children would travel by bus. This would be
provided by the Raval Transport Department, and it would take Malupit children to and from
school free of charge
Another parent, Mr.H.Wiley, expressed the fear of many parent that closing the local school
would mean that the children of Malupit would not grow up with the same sense of
community as in the past. They would feel lost in the much larger schools in Raval.
Mr. Kazarin replied that the Raval school were not very large, and that in any case, the
children would have to go to Raval later for education at high-school level.
The chairman voiced the view of the meeting when he said that there was good reason to
believe that there would soon be more young children living in Malupit.
It would be foolish, he said, to close the school, and then to find that there were more than
enough local children to form two classes and employ two teachers.
A final point was made by Mr.Colmar, a retired businessman, that without Malupit
Community School, there would be nowhere big enough for local clubs an organizations to
hold their meetings.
Mr.Pomat brought the meeting to a close shortly after 9 0clock.

It is important to know how people in Jakarta satisfy the need of clean water. They use
ground water, the governmental water supply or PAM ( Perusahaan Air Minum ) and public
hydrants. The number of the population in Jakarta is 8,5 million, but only 41% of them have
accessed to clean water from PAM, while the rest still depend on ground water. The shallow
ground water is used in hotels, offices, factories, and areas of residences. There wont be any
problem if they do not use the water more than the resources capacity.
Man is granted a large amount of colourless liquid called water. Life will not exist without
water. There are a lot of domestic purposes as drinking, preparation of food and beverages,
bathing, cleansing, and watering the lawns and gardens and secondarily in industrial
processes, commercial products disposal of wastes in sewers, fire fighting, street sprinkling,
swimming pools, and public fountains. For most of the purposes above the quality of water
must be good.
There are a lot of sources of water supply such as underground and surface water. Ground
water resources are near at hand and systems are cheap to install, i. e by setting a pump or
digging a well. The surface water is obtained from large lake or river nearby, consequently it
will be very expensive to get the water because the supply depends on the amount of water in
large reservoirs, from which long pipes are needed to pump the water into the houses. Ground
water is generally clear, cold, cold, colourless, and cleaner than surface water in some
regions.

In order to have clean water supplies people should conserve the water. It can be conserved in
many ways, including measurement and recording of all-purpose water consumption, holding
flood water in o0versize reservoirs, desalting seawater and guard of ground water against the
intrusion of seawater, and reducing evaporations in reservoirs using large ground water
reservoir more extensively.

A woman and her two children could not stop sneezing as heaps of kapok floated in the air
around them. Even the afternoon downpour did not dampen their working spirit. With the
silky fibers or kapok flying all around them and setting onto their bodies, they kept stuffing
kapok into a large cloth bag to make mattress.
Rasni 40 is one of the woman working in a mattress-making centre in Wanakerta mattress in
Bajanegara village of Purbalingga district. Almost all of the women in Wanakerta, which has
population of some 350 families or about 1,200 people, works as mattress-makers.
Since 1978 Wanakerta residents have been making mattresses in a very traditional way. To
make one mattress they need stuffing, mattress cloth and thread. There are two kinds of
stuffing with which they are familiar : kapok and fibrous yarn called benglon which is made
from textile factory waste. The products have a good market not only in Purbalingga but also
in other urban centers like Surakarta, Tasikmalaya, and Jakarta.
The mattress-making business in Wanakerta was pioneered by Mahwari, 50, and the late
Rasmadi. Before trying their hands at mattress-making, they sold agricultural products in a
number of areas in Java. When they were in a textile mill in Bandung, West Java they saw
heaps of textile waste, the kapoklike polyester benglon fibers.

The process of making a mattress in a traditional way is simple. Before it is put into a cloth
bag, the kapok or benglon must be first put in the sunlight so that it will expand, said Rasni.
Then it is put into a cloth bag of mattress size. The bag is sewn up with mattress thread.
When the mattress is ready, it will be again put in the sunlight so that it will expand further,
she added.
To make a single mattress, nine metres of mattress cloth, 20 kg of kapok or 25 kg of benglon
and two rolls of thread, are needed. One mattress is sold at an average price of Rp. 90,000,-
The mattress-makers handle heaps of kapok and benglon every do not wear protective masks,
leaving them vulnerable to health problem. The biggest risk they is when unpack the stuffing,
put it in the sunlight and fill the mattress bag.

Read the following information carefully!

Every year thousands of people die, due to wheather related problems. This has been a
particular problem in Europe over the last few years. It can happen in both winter and in
summer. Lets examine the causes for a moment.
The year 2003 was a time of extreme cold in the winter. Extreme, that is by European
standards. In Britain alone, the number of people who died from cold-related illnesses was
described as shameful. Nearly twenty-five thousand people died from illnesses such as
strokes, heart attacks, bronchitis, flu and pneumonia. Each of these deaths were though to
have been caused by the cold weather. A campaign called The cold can kill was launched to
give people advice on how to survive the effects of t he cold wheather and freezing
temperatures.
In the summer of t he same year, around twenty-three thousand people died in Europe due to
the sizzling temperatures. France was particulary badly hit, with nearly fifteen thousand death
which were related to the sweltering heat. In Britain, the number of heat-related death was
much lower than the number of winter deaths. Even so, with temperatures reaching 38oC, the
government issued advice to people on how to protect their health. This advice warned that it
only took two consecituve days of high temperatures to have significant effects on peoples
health. It said that people who became overheated and dehydrated ran the risk of irreversible
damage to the body or even death.

The Buyat Bay, issue has been a hot topic these past two weeks.However, no party has
claimed responsibility for the pollution in the bay. This country is suffering from an old
illness : it cannot see the culprits even though it could - if it wanted to. The issue started when
a non-governmental organization discovered that a number of people living near the bay in
South Minahasa district, North Sulawesi province, were suffering from skin diseases.
Blood tests showed that some had high levels of mercury in their blood.

PT Newmont Minahasa Raya, accusing it of causing the pollution by dumping its tailings in
the bay.

Each society has its own beliefs, attitudes, customs, behaviours, and social habits.
These give people a sense of who they are, how they should behave, and what they should or
should not do. These 'rules' reflect the 'culture' of a country.
People become conscious of such rules when they meet people from different cultures.
For example, in some. cultures, being on time can mean turning up several hours late for an
appointment, even for a business meeting; in others, 3 p.m. means 3 p.m. Also, the rules
about when to eat vary from culture to culture. Many North Americans and Europeans are
used to having three mealtimes a day and organizing their timetable around them. In some
countries, on the other hand, people often do not have strict rules like this - people eat when
they want to and every family has its own time table.
When people visit or live in a country for the first time, they are often surprised at the
differences that exist between their own culture and that in the other country. The most
common way of comparing two cultures is in terms of their differences - not their similarities.
