Article 1 In the article Improve English written by Nelson Benjamin and Mohd Farhaan Shah, it is stated that students

should master English language to go far and success in life. I am agree with this statement as English is spoken by more people than any other language in the world. For the most part, it is parents who teach their young children to speak their home language. They play an important role in helping to make sure their children get the education they need and deserve. Parents can help by using English as their language at home. Even with a basic knowledge of English, thay can successfully support their young child learning English. Sending their child to an English tutorial is also a good idea to improve their English. On the other hand, English teachers should play their role in class. They should give more exercise on grammar to improve the grammar skills of their students. The teacher should plan more activities that will make them speak the most in class. They have to do more vocabulary exposure to students. In this way, the students can improve their vocabulary. The other way that English teachers can do is to schedule a regular meeting with each student as often as possible and just speak English with them individually. As a teacher, we should set our own goal so that we will know how far is the achievement of each students. English class might be boring sometimes. If the teacher speaks about topics that are interesting to the students, the class will become less cold. Organizing a

quiz is a good idea in class. The teacher should organize a grammar quiz to measure the grammar level of the students. Article 2 In the article Dont be ashamed of disabled children written by M. Husairi Othman and P. Chandra Sagaran, it is stated that parents should not be ashamed if they have disabled children. I am strongly agree with the writters statement. Disabled children means the children who are lack of abilities to perform an activity in the manner or within the range considered normal for human being. The parents of disabled children should not be ashamed of these special kids because they are extraordinary. While some parents think that having a disabled children is a blessing, there are some ungrateful parents consider it as a curse or punishment from God to have such kids. Some might think that it is associated with the past sin. These children require unique instructions by specially trained professionals to help them achieve their highest potential and strive to progress beyond their limitations. Nowadays, there are many trainee teachers majoring in Special Education are welltrained to prepare themselves in teaching kids with special needs. Their job is primarily teaching them life skills and basic literacy. They are also been taught about living skills so that they can be independent upon reaching their adulthood. Parents with these kids should send off their kids to rehabilitation centres so that they can be trained about life skills for a better living. It is true that Perak Menteri Besar said being disabled did not mean that one could not succeed in life.

Article 3 In the article Strike a balance for environments sake written by Ghazali Ismail, it is stated that there are many steps to save our environment. In fact, saving our nature is the responsibility of every human in this world. Environment is our home. It is the natural world within all the living things in the universe live. It is everything that surrounds us. However, people nowadays dont treat the environment with the respect it deserves. Conservation of the natural environment is an important method to save our environment. Air pollution becomes more compelling problem with each successive generation. Vehicles, factories and open burning have contributed to this matter. It is right the writer said, car pooling can help to reduce the air to be more and more polluted. Car pooling is good for the increasingly toxic air and also has some very tangible benefits to make our air cleaner. One of the best ways to keep our air clean is to conserve energy. For example, we can clean or replace air filters on our air conditioning unit at least once a month. To make it more simple, we can also turn off lights, computers and other appliances when not in use. The other way to obstruct air pollution is taking precautions against things such as industrial wastes. Moreover, people should try to decrease the use of environmentally unfriendly perfumes and additives as soon as possible.
