Everybody should change their way of life to reduce global warming.
There are several things that we can
do. One of them is by buying and consuming fresh local groceries as much as possiblE. It of course
includes local vegetables, fruits, bread, etC.
Local groceries don’t need much transportation to get it into the market. It of course means, the amount
of carbon dioxide produced is less than the groceries from other region. Therefore, by buying local
groceries we are helping reduce the amount of carbon dioxide produceD.
Consuming fresh groceries instead of frozen ones are healthier for us. Furthermore, fresh food or
groceries means no requirements for it to be freeze up. It means that no electricity is needed and saving
energy means reducing carbon dioxide and money.
So, from now on we should consume fresh local groceries to reduce global warming.

I strongly believe that mobile phones are necessary. My reasons for this belief are that these phones are
convenient for business people who travel a lot, and they are handy for emergencies.
To begin with, mobile phones are necessary in the case of emergencies. For instance, if you fall down a
set of stairs in a building and are badly injured and can’t reach a pay phone, it is handy to have one to
use. Or, if your car breaks down in the middle of the night in a strange neighbourhood, it would be
dangerous to leave it in search of a public phone booth.
My other main reason is that mobile phones are convenient for business people. For example, if you are
out of the state or even overseas and you have to contact a client to do some important work, it is useful
to have one to use. By using a mobile phone, important information can be received. People can’t stay in
an office all day waiting for their phone to ring. Some people have to go and do jobs or they will go out
of business. You can even send faxes or messages and use the internet with your mobile.
In conclusion, I believe that mobile phones have now become a necessary part of every day life. Instant
communication will ensure that information can be passed on with a simple press of a button. Whether
this is to do with business or personal information or emergencies, it goes to show that they are
necessary in the new millennium.

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious problem for three
reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimens and experiments.
Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant or
to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives. Of course when it is used for food
preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.
The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This condition makes the
people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use formalin was spread wide all
over the Indonesian regions, and these days it has really happened, the citizen’s bodies will be badly
contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell their products which contain formalin and
dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our digestive system absorbs the substance that should
be for the human and animal corpses?
Considering the reasons, we can make a conclusion that the use of formalin and other preservatives is
really a serious problem if it is not resolved immediately.

magazine on the entertainment coloumn such as comedy, short story, quiz, etC. To make us relaxeD.

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyablE. You can mix pleasure with learning
when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some underlying
reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.
Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard
after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This
phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.
Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is just
what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times more
motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs can be quite complex syntactically,
lexically and poetically, and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary samplE.
Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purposE. Most pop songs and probably
many other types don’t have precise people, place or time referencE.
In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and
within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and
yeas, even revolution.
Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar,
practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary, spelling and culturE.
From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and songs, learning English
can be enjoyable and fun.
