Education is the first step to know something that we haven’t knows before
education is an important thing for us to look for.
As long as we are alive we need education. Education is like our food and our
drink that help us to live in the world. That’s why everyone has the same to get
good education.
In this modern era, education is much needed because there are a lot of things
that we need to know. For example, we can know about how to operate
computers, mobile phones, digital cameras, with education.
Another reason is that there is much information all around us that we can get
nowadays. If we are not educated well, we will be left behind.
Dear brothers and sisters,
That’s all my speech. I hope it will be useful for us. Thank you very much. I’m sorry
for doing many mistakes.
Wassalamu’alaikum Wr. Wb.

Unforgettable : All of my friends whom I love
Happy audience, ladies and gentlemen
First of all, lets pray and thank unto our God Allah SWT. Who gives us mercies and
blessing, so we can attend and gather in this place in good condition and happy
situation.
English is one of languages in the world. There are many countries in the world.
Every country has different languages. But they don't need to worry about that.
Because we have an International language, that is English. English makes people
in the world one.
That’s all my speech. I hope it will be useful for us. Thank you very much. I’m sorry
for doing many mistakes.
Some schools offer an accelerated learning program, where students who perform
well can finish elementary school in five years.
The next level is secondary education. After graduating from elementary school,
students attend Middle School or Junior High School (Sekolah Menengah Pertama)
for three years from the age of 13-15. After three years of schooling and
graduation, students may move on to Senior High School. In Indonesia, this school
is basically divided into two kinds:
SMA (Sekolah Menengah Atas) and SMK (Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan). SMA is
different with SMK in their studies. The students at SMA are prepared to advance to
tertiary education or university, while students of SMK as a vocational school are
prepared to be ready to work after finishing their school without going to
university/college.
The last level of education in our country is tertiary education. Students who have
graduated from senior high school may attend to university or academy. They can
choose any kinds of university or academy based on their interests or scopes of
knowledge, for example majoring in English, Mathematics, or teacher training
university.

Yemeni men traditionally chew qat for several hours / starting around midday/
stuffing their cheeks/ with the leaves and letting its narcotic dissolve in their saliva//
At daily qat-chewing sessions/ Yemenis recline on floor cushions/ listen to
traditional music/ exchange gossip/ and engage in wide-ranging debates//
The widely cultivated plant/ consumes 30 percent of the extremely scarce water
resources in Yemen/ the Arab world’s poorest country/ and cuts into the
production of other crops// The World Health Organization classifies/ the drug as a
narcotic//
Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula/ and allied tribesmen overran the city of
Mukalla/ — capital of the vast Hadramawt province/ — last month// in part
because of heavy fighting elsewhere/ between Shiite rebels known as Houthis
/and loyalists of Yemen’s internationally recognized president/ backed by Saudi-
led airstrikes.
Pictures posted on social networking sites/ for local reporters showed tribesmen
/setting fire to piles of green leaves in the streets/ while others armed with assault
rifles halted trucks carrying/ the plants and turned them away from the city//
“Qat is a problem either way,”/ said Salem Dayan/ a merchant in Mukalla/ “If you
ban it / people will have nothing to do to kill time/ and if you lift the ban/ you bring
back the financial burden on your family// A person can spend anywhere/ from $5
to $50 on qat for a single session// Retired teacher Ahmed Basalma welcomed the
ban/ saying qat/ “ruined lives and wrecked whole families”/ but that addicts
would likely find a way around it//

According to a newly released police report/ the items were found on a desk next
to Ayala’s body/ which was found face-down on the floor/ next to the desk and
chair// Investigators said/ the syringe contained what appeared to be a narcotic/
and that a ball of heroin wrapped in tape/ was found on the desk with a cooker
cap and a spoon// There was no sign of trauma on the body/police said.//
According to the report/ a woman whom officers found weeping over Ayala’s
body said/ the pair had been drinking alcohol and quarrelling/ in a house they
shared the night before//. About 1 a.m. Tuesday/ he left the house angry/ she
said//. About 7:30 a.m/ sensing that something was wrong/ she went to the gym
owned by the Ayala family/ where he trained and found his body// The woman’s
name was concealed in the report//
Four years later/ Ayala went back to prison for 10 years/ when he violated parole
in the Texas case// He was pulled over for speeding and charged/ with driving
without a license/ possession of heroin/ and possession of pornography//
Ayala was charged in 2003/ with having sex with a 13-year-old girl/ but the case
