How do you study when the test is coming? Do you start preparing for the test weeks or months before the test or leave things to the last hour? If you start studying weeks or months before the
test, it is great. However, if you study all the material in the last hour or minute, it is not good for you. This is called cramming.
Cramming is when students stay up all night until morning to study before a test or nish an assignment. This habit can lead to negative impacts, the rst being that disruptions in the regular
sleep cycle can cause temporary intellectual lapses. For most students, less sleep can make them could not focus on the class. Additionally, cramming can leave us with memory lapses as well.
Each person has a different sleeping schedule, so some of them often use a stimulant for cramming. An example stimulant, and the most common, is coffee. While delicious and bene cial, it
causes many problems in the long-term such as Caffeine Intoxication Syndrome, anxiety, panic, and headaches.
To sum up, cramming is not recommended because it disturbs a person’s sleep cycle which causes temporary intellectual lapses, and using stimulants for cramming gives them a bad effect on
their health.

A geyser is a rare kind of hot spring that is under pressure and erupts, sending jets of water and steam into the air.
Geysers are made from a tube-like hole in the Earth's surface that runs deep into the crust. The tube is lled with water. Near the bottom of the tube is molten rock called magma, which heats
the water in the tube. Water in the lower part of the tube, close to the magma, becomes superhot. Gradually, it begins to boil. Some of the water is forced upward. The boiling water begins to
steam, or turn to gas. The steam jets toward the surface. Its powerful jet of steam ejects the column of water above it. The water rushes through the tube and into the air.
The eruption will continue until all the water is forced out of the tube, or until the temperature inside the geyser drops below boiling (100 degrees Celsius, or 212 degrees Fahrenheit, at sea
level).
After the eruption, water slowly seeps back into the tube. The process begins again. In some small geysers, the eruption process can take just a few minutes. In larger geysers, it can take days.
The most famous geyser in the United States, Yellowstone National Park's Old Faithful, erupts about every 50-100 minutes.

Firstly, by online learning people can t them around their existing responsibilities and commitments, and can engage with multimedia content and learning materials at whatever time is most
convenient to them. Even better: they don’t have to travel anywhere to study, they can simply log in to the virtual class from the comfort of their own home or of ce.
Secondly, it’s cheaper. Cost can often be a prohibitive factor in why individual students don’t enroll in courses they’re interested in. This is also an issue for corporations who wish to encourage
their employees to undergo further training but don’t have much of a budget for conferences and training courses. Online courses are easily accessible on much smaller budgets.
In addition to the convenience and the cost, a large number of students are turning to online learning courses because they have become a better way to learn. Those students who are serious
about improving their understanding, learning new skills and gaining valuable quali cations are keen to enroll in the type of course that will be the most effective.
So yes, I would say that online course is now more popular instead of face to face course.

A Mermaid and a Magic Comb
Once upon a time, there was a young mermaid. She had seven other sisters. She was told: "When you are sixteen, you can go over the waves and see the human land". One by one the sisters
went to the surface. Then it was the little mermaids turn. She went to the surface.
It was a horrible day for sailing but the prince went sailing anyway. Suddenly the boat hit some rocks that weren’t visible. The prince was thrown into the water. The little mermaid swam and
pulled him on land and started singing to him. The next moment they were in love.
The little mermaid heard someone coming and swam away. She was still in love and wanted to marry the man with the split tail, so she went to the sea witch.
"I will grant your wish, but you must give me your voice and if the prince does not love you, you will turn into sea troth and your soul will be mine". The little mermaid agreed.
From his castle the prince could see the beach. He saw someone and ran down to see who it was. "Hello, are you alright?" the mermaid went to speak but nothing came out. "You can’t speak?"
the mermaid nodded her head. "Come with me." A servant brought the mermaid some clothes. She slept all night. The prince was up early and went to the balcony. He heard singing. It sounded
like the singing he heard when he almost drowned. He ran down to the beach "You save my life!" "Yes I did." It was the sea witch. She had transformed into a beautiful lady using the little
mermaid’s voice.
When the mermaid woke up she got a shock "We're going to marry tomorrow" said the prince to a wedding planner. The little mermaid was invited to. It was the third day. "I do" said the prince.
It was sunset the little mermaid was standing on a rock by the sea. She was then swept off the rock and now belongs to the sea witch.

Shopping addiction is a behavioral addiction that involves compulsive buying as a way to feel good and avoid negative feelings, such as anxiety and depression. Like other behavioral addictions,
shopping addiction can take over as a preoccupation that leads to problems in other areas of your life. Usually beginning in one's late teens and early adulthood, shopping addiction often co-
occurs with other disorders, including mood and anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, eating disorders, other impulse control disorders, and personality disorders.
So, what is the difference between normal shopping, occasional splurges, and shopping addiction? As with all addictions, what sets shopping addiction apart from other types of shopping is that
the behavior becomes the person’s main way of coping with stress, to the point where they continue to shop excessively even when it is clearly having a negative impact on other areas of their
life.
As with other addictions, money problems can develop and relationships can become damaged, yet people with shopping addiction (sometimes called "shopaholics") feel unable to stop or even
control their spending. People with shopping addiction tend to be more materialistic than other shoppers and try to prop themselves up by seeking status through material objects and seeking
approval from others. They engage in fantasy more than other people, and—as with other people with addictions—have a hard time resisting their impulses.
As a result, they are more susceptible to marketing and advertising messages that surround us on a daily basis.

Due to the effect that it has on the brain, social media is addictive both physically and psychologically. According to a new study by Harvard University, self-disclosure on social networking sites
lights up the same part of the brain that also ignites when taking an addictive substance. The reward area in the brain and its chemical messenger pathways affect decisions and sensations.
This is observable in social media usage; when an individual gets a noti cation, such as a like or mention, the brain receives a rush of dopamine and sends it along reward pathways, causing him
or her to feel pleasure. Social media provides an endless number of immediate rewards in the form of attention from others for relatively minimal effort. Therefore, the brain rewires itself through
this positive reinforcement, making people desire likes, retweets, and emoticon reactions.
Another perpetuating factor of social media addiction is the fact that the reward centres of the brain are most active when people are talking about themselves. In real life, it’s estimated that
people talk about themselves around 30 to 40% of the time; however, social media is all about showing off one’s life and accomplishments, so people talk about themselves a staggering 80% of
the time. When a person posts a picture and gets positive social feedback, it stimulates the brain to release dopamine, which again rewards that behaviour and perpetuates the social media
habit.
Social media use becomes problematic when someone views social networking sites as an important coping mechanism to relieve stress, loneliness, or depression. For these people, social media
use provides continuous rewards that they’re not receiving in real life, and end up engaging in the activity more and more. This continuous use eventually leads to multiple interpersonal
problems, such as ignoring real life relationships, work or school responsibilities, and physical health, which may then exacerbate an individual’s undesirable moods. This then causes people to
engage in the social networking behaviour even more as a way of relieving dysphoric mood states. Consequently, when social network users repeat this cyclical pattern of relieving undesirable
moods with social media use, the level of psychological dependency on social media increases.

The Greeks that came to the Sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia shared the same religious beliefs and spoke the same language. The athletes were all male citizens of the city-states from every
corner of the Greek world, coming from as far away as Iberia (Spain) in the west and the Black Sea (Turkey) in the east.
The sanctuary was named in antiquity after Mt. Olympos the highest mountain in mainland Greece. In Greek mythology, Mt. Olympos was the home of the greatest of the Greek gods and
goddesses.
The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC, when Koroibos, a cook from the nearby city of Elis, won the stadion race, a foot race 600 feet long. The stadion track at Olympia is shown
here. According to some literary traditions, this was the only athletic event of the games for the rst 13 Olympic festivals or until 724 BC. From 776 BC, the Games were held in Olympia every
four years for almost 12 centuries.
Contrary evidence, both literary and archaeological, suggests that the games may have existed at Olympia much earlier than this date, perhaps as early as the 10th or 9th century BC.

Movement in the Earth's crust causes an earthquake. The Earth is made of an inner core, an outer core and a mantle, and the nal layer is a thin crust covering the mantle, which is the surface of
the Earth including all the oceans and continents. The crust is made of separate rocky portions called tectonic plates, which lie on the mantle like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. But the jigsaw puzzle
is mobile, and the plates move around. Some slide past each other horizontally, some push together and force the ground upward, some slide beneath another plate and some pull apart.
Whenever a tectonic plate moves suddenly, this causes an earthquake.
The sudden release of friction and pressure between tectonic plates causes an earthquake. Tectonic plates are made of rough rock and cannot slide pass each other smoothly. Friction prevents
movement at the plate edges while the rest of the plates continue to move, causing a build-up in pressure. When the pressure overcomes the friction, the plates move suddenly, and shock waves
from this sudden movement radiate through rock, soil, buildings and water. Usually, small foreshocks occur at rst, followed by one big mainshock. Aftershocks follow and can continue for
weeks, months or even years.
Fault lines are the areas where two or more tectonic plates join, and it's in these areas most earthquakes occur. Well-studied fault lines include the San Andreas Fault that runs down the West
Coast of North America and lines between Australia and Papua New Guinea, as well as in New Zealand, Tonga, Japan and Taiwan. Earthquakes can also rarely occur in the middle of tectonic
plates. Scientists aren't yet able to predict earthquakes, but people living near fault lines can help protect themselves by living in earthquake-protected housing and practicing earthquake drills.

Reports about the easing of restrictions in other countries are ever so tempting. Even in China where a second wave of COVID-19 infections is not ruled out, kindergartens have opened; likewise,
classes have started in Japan and Denmark with school staff taking temperatures at the door and with desks set further apart than usual.
In Australia, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced Friday a three-step plan for restarting economic and social life with July set as the nal “aspirational” target. In the rst phase to start
“soon”, weddings can have a maximum of 10 guests, cafes and restaurants can have up to 10 patrons with at least 4 square meters of space per person; but international travel is unlikely to
resume in the near future.
Last Friday Malaysia announced most businesses would be allowed to resume operations and childcare centres would open. However, parents remain fearful about taking chances. Therefore,
governments are assessing their own societies on when and how to go about relaxing restrictions.
In Indonesia as millions become deeply fearful about how to feed their families in the coming weeks, hopes are high that the economy can slowly resume. But however closely we may try to
imitate the disciplined measures in the above countries, there are already too many holes in the enforcement of the large-scale social restrictions (PSBB).
The national COVID-19 taskforce chief Doni Monardo said Wednesday that essential travel was now allowed, such as for medical personnel but he also described the presence of a military
of cer’s wife at his handover ceremony as “important”. So, what other interpretations could there be of what is “essential”?

Consumer behaviour is the study of knowing how individual customers, groups or organization's select, buy, use and dispose of ideas, goods and services to satisfy their needs and desires. It
refers to the actions of the consumers in the marketplace and the underlying motives for those actions. Let’s take a look at the stages of the consumer buying journey.
Often the rst step of the buying journey involves identifying a problem or a need. Sometimes, your customers need might be as simple as wanting to be an early adopter, someone who enjoys
being ‘ rst’ to have or use a particular product.
The next step is searching for a solution on how to solve the problem. Let’s take that new mobile phone you are thinking of buying. If your old phone has broken down, you can either research
repair shops or you can start looking at new models. Consumers conduct searches internally or externally. An internal search means that the consumer falls back on their personal experiences
(I’m an Apple fan) while external search relies on anecdotes from friends and family and probably the internet (your mum tells you to buy an android because they are better).
The third step in the consumer buying journey is all about comparing different brands and products, evaluating alternatives. After researching a product and building knowledge your customer
may decide to research alternative products available in the market.
Then comes “the actual purchase decision”. At this stage, the buyer has nished evaluating the alternatives and is ready to make a decision. This is the magical moment of truth when the
consumer selects a brand to purchase. In the evaluation phase, purchase intentions are developed after the buyer ranks the brand according to all options available to them.
Based on the above text, we can infer that ... . (you can choose more than 1 answer)
A. the customers’ need might be as simple as want to be an early adopter in most of the time
B. narrowing down their choices will help the customers to evaluate the product they want to buy

D. the consumers make buying decisions as soon as they recognize their needs, without any further considerations

Long, long ago, the mystical land of Gondwana was beautiful, peaceful and untouched. In Gondwana, there lived Tyawan, a Clever Man of the Gundungurra people. He had three daughters
called Meenhi, Wimlah and Gunnedoo, whom he treasured above all else.
In a deep hole in the valley there lived a Bunyip, a huge evil creature who loved to feast on human esh, particularly that of young girls and women. Its cry was harsh and horrible as if the only
safe thing to do was running away as quickly as possible. Everyone feared the Bunyip.
As everyone needed to pass its hole, it was important to creep very quietly so that it was not disturbed.
When Tyawan had to pass the hole, he would leave his daughters safely on the cliff above behind a rocky wall – just in case!
One day, waving goodbye to his daughters, he descended the cliff steps down towards the path near the Bunyip’s hole. While the girls were waiting and chatting on top of the cliff, a huge
centipede suddenly appeared. Startled, Meenhi screamed, jumped up, picked up a stone and threw it at the centipede.
The stone missed the centipede, but rolled over the edge of the cliff and, picking up speed, crashed into the valley below. The sound echoed all around the mountains. Birds, animals and even
fairies stopped still as the rocks behind the three sisters, shook and split open, leaving them perched together on a thin ledge.
The Bunyip, angry at being awakened, roared and dragged himself through the split to see the terri ed sisters cowering on the ledge. His evil eyes widened in delight at the feast before him.
Tyawan looked up and saw the Bunyip reaching for his daughters, so he pointed his magic bone at the girls and immediately turned them to stone. They would be safe there until the Bunyip had
gone and then Tyawan would change them back to their former selves.
But the Bunyip, angered at being deprived of his prey, chased Tyawan through the forest and up a mountain where he found himself trapped. So Tyawan used his magic bone again and changed
himself into a Lyre Bird and glided away. Everyone was safe. But then, in dismay, Tyawan realised that he had dropped his bone whilst changing.
After the Bunyip had gone back to his deep dark pool, Tyawan glided down to the forest oor and searched and searched for his magic bone ... where he can still be seen to this day, in the shape
of the Lyre bird, scratching and searching the forest oors of the Blue Mountains, looking for his bone, calling to his daughters above and feeding on insects whilst he searches.
The Three Sisters stand silently watching him from their ledge, hoping and hoping that one day their father will nd his magic bone and be able turn them back to Aboriginal girls.

The pyramids were built as tombs for the Pharaohs, the largest of which was constructed between 2560 and 2540 BC. To put their age in perspective, they were already more than 2,600 years
old when the Colosseum in Rome was being built. Today, these giant monuments are the sole surviving member of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.

In late 2019/early 2020, China experienced an outbreak of a new virus, Covid-19. The virus had a fatality rate of between 1-4% and spread with alarming speed. In March 2020 Italy became the
rst country in the western world to implement a lockdown to try and stop the rapid escalation of the virus. There soon followed widespread global ‘lockdowns’ with people con ned to their
homes and business shut down.
Despite travel bans, the virus spread to all countries around the world. This lockdown had a profound adverse effect on the global economy with a sharp rise in unemployment and a fall in
output. It also challenged long-held view of invulnerability amongst western developed countries. The long-term impact of the pandemic is uncertain, but it will lead to structural changes in the
economy and the balance of the world. China is both seen as the source of the virus, but also – as the world’s dominant manufacturer – is a key player in the efforts to manufacture equipment to
deal with the crisis.

After getting back from his duty, Patih Sidopekso went to see the King in the hall. The king who was hurt because his love was rejected then accused Sri Tanjung that she had seduced him. Patih
Sidopekso was upset to hear what was told by the king. He felt he had been betrayed by his wife. Then he went to see his wife and asked for the truth immediately. Sri Tanjung refuted what was
said by the king. Nevertheless, Patih Sidopekso more believed to the king than his wife. And then dragged her to the edge of a muddy river. He was so angry there and wanted to kill his wife.
Because her husband did not trust her anymore, Sri Tanjung asked for a last request to him. She said that if he did not trust her any more, he might kill her and threw her body into the river. Sri
Tanjung also said that when the water turned to be clean it meant she was right. Nevertheless, if it did not change, the king was right.
Patih Sidopekso couldn’t stand his anger any longer and then he stabbed his wife with a knife. Then he threw his wife’s body into the river. Immediately the turbid river turned into clean and
diffused the fragrance. Seeing the incident, Patih Sidopekso regretted what he had done. He realized that his wife was innocent. Then he screamed loudly “Banyu …………… ….. …Wangi. Banyu

Are you still beating yourself up for the mistake you made last week? Are you constantly going over next week’s presentation at work in your head? You are probably overthinking. Your inability
to get out of your head may leave you in a constant state of anguish. Of course, we all tend to overthink a situation occasionally. Overthinking is more than just a nuisance – science reveals that
thinking too much can damage you too.
It triggers mental illness. Are you always xated on your past mistakes? Dwelling on your mistakes, problems and shortcomings increases your chances of being affected by mental health
problems. Overthinking can set you up for a vicious cycle that is hard to break. It wreaks havoc on your mental peace – and as you lose your peace of mind, you tend to overthink.
It disrupts your sleep. If you are an overthinker, you probably face sleep problems. This is because your body does not allow you to sleep when your mind is not at peace. Ruminating on almost
everything and worrying constantly about things over which you have little or no control often led to fewer hours of sleep. Thus, overthinking impairs your quality of sleep and may make you
cranky the next day as well.
The bottom-line is, overthinking can change the way you work with others and the way you do things. It can signi cantly affect your personal life, social life and work-life too. Most importantly,
overthinking may also cause emotional distress. To overcome this, you will need to make some changes in your perspective and make a constant effort to shrug away any thoughts that make you
feel astray.

Due to the effect that it has on the brain, social media is addictive both physically and psychologically. According to a new study by Harvard University, self-disclosure on
social networking sites lights up the same part of the brain that also ignites when taking an addictive substance. The reward area in the brain and its chemical
messenger pathways affect decisions and sensations.
This is observable in social media usage; when an individual gets a noti cation, such as a like or mention, the brain receives a rush of dopamine and sends it along
reward pathways, causing him or her to feel pleasure. Social media provides an endless number of immediate rewards in the form of attention from others for relatively
minimal effort. Therefore, the brain rewires itself through this positive reinforcement, making people desire likes, retweets, and emoticon reactions.
Another perpetuating factor of social media addiction is the fact that the reward centers of the brain are most active when people are talking about themselves. In real
life, it’s estimated that people talk about themselves around 30 to 40% of the time; however, social media is all about showing off one’s life and accomplishments, so
people talk about themselves a staggering 80% of the time. When a person posts a picture and gets positive social feedback, it stimulates the brain to release
dopamine, which again rewards that behavior and perpetuates the social media habit.
Social media use becomes problematic when someone views social networking sites as an important coping mechanism to relieve stress, loneliness, or depression. For
these people, social media use provides continuous rewards that they’re not receiving in real life, and end up engaging in the activity more and more. This continuous use
eventually leads to multiple interpersonal problems, such as ignoring real life relationships, work or school responsibilities, and physical health, which may then
exacerbate an individual’s undesirable moods. This then causes people to engage in the social networking behavior even more as a way of relieving dysphoric mood
states. Consequently, when social network users repeat this cyclical pattern of relieving undesirable moods with social media use, the level of psychological dependency
on social media increases.

Long time ago in China, girls were expected to stay at home and learnt household work while the boys went to school, but a girl named Zhu conceived a desire to study
but her father did not want to ght against tradition. He was con dent that no school would admit a girl even Zhu’s family was wealthy.
Zhu disguised herself as a boy and managed to get a school in the city of Hangzhou, where her aunt lived.
There was a boy named Liang in her class. The two became good friends. As the years passed they became inseparable companions. Zhu realized that she was in love.
She wanted to stay with Liang the rest of her life.
After nishing school, Liang lost no time in taking up a job, and when he had saved enough to get married he hastened to Zhu’s house. Zhu saw him coming, and was
overjoyed. “I’m your friend, as you can see I’m a girl. Unable to restrain herself she rushed out, I cannot live without you!"
Liang was dazed but it soon recovered and caught Zhu in a warm embrace. Zhu took him to her father who listened attentively to what Liang had to say, but when the
young man asked for Zhu’s hand, he shook his head. He told Liang that Zhu had already been promised to another man, a wealthy merchant. Nothing that Liang said
could make Zhu’s father change his mind. Liang left, shattered. On the way, he collapsed and died.
When Zhu learnt of Liang’s death, she lost all desire to continue living. She pretended to agree to the marriage arranged for her on one condition that the wedding
procession passed by Liang’s grave. As the wedding procession near, Zhu jumped down from her palanquin and rushing to Liang’s grave threw herself on it, sobbing
uncontrollably. Zhu leapt into it. When Zhu’s relatives reached the grave and peered into it, all they saw at rst was an empty cof n. Then out ew two butter ies,

Long, long ago, the mystical land of Gondwana was beautiful, peaceful and untouched. In Gondwana, there lived Tyawan, a Clever Man of the Gundungurra people. He
had three daughters called Meenhi, Wimlah and Gunnedoo, whom he treasured above all else.
In a deep hole in the valley there lived a Bunyip, a huge evil creature who loved to feast on human esh, particularly that of young girls and women. Its cry was harsh
and horrible as if the only safe thing to do was running away as quickly as possible. Everyone feared the Bunyip.
As everyone needed to pass its hole, it was important to creep very quietly so that it was not disturbed.
When Tyawan had to pass the hole, he would leave his daughters safely on the cliff above behind a rocky wall – just in case!
One day, waving goodbye to his daughters, he descended the cliff steps down towards the path near the Bunyip’s hole. While the girls were waiting and chatting on top
of the cliff, a huge centipede suddenly appeared. Startled, Meenhi screamed, jumped up, picked up a stone and threw it at the centipede.
The stone missed the centipede, but rolled over the edge of the cliff and, picking up speed, crashed into the valley below. The sound echoed all around the mountains.
Birds, animals and even fairies stopped still as the rocks behind the three sisters, shook and split open, leaving them perched together on a thin ledge.
The Bunyip, angry at being awakened, roared and dragged himself through the split to see the terri ed sisters cowering on the ledge. His evil eyes widened in delight at
the feast before him.
Tyawan looked up and saw the Bunyip reaching for his daughters, so he pointed his magic bone at the girls and immediately turned them to stone. They would be safe
there until the Bunyip had gone and then Tyawan would change them back to their former selves.
But the Bunyip, angered at being deprived of his prey, chased Tyawan through the forest and up a mountain where he found himself trapped. So Tyawan used his magic
bone again and changed himself into a Lyre Bird and glided away. Everyone was safe. But then, in dismay, Tyawan realised that he had dropped his bone whilst
changing.
After the Bunyip had gone back to his deep dark pool, Tyawan glided down to the forest oor and searched and searched for his magic bone ... where he can still be seen
to this day, in the shape of the Lyre bird, scratching and searching the forest oors of the Blue Mountains, looking for his bone, calling to his daughters above and feeding
on insects whilst he searches.
The Three Sisters stand silently watching him from their ledge, hoping and hoping that one day their father will nd his magic bone and be able turn them back to
Aboriginal girls.

In a unique jungle setting, not far from the city of Siem Reap, Angkor Wat is known for being the world's largest religious monument, but it is more than sheer size that
makes the Angkor complex so interesting. The site was built by the Khmers in the 12th century, and the architecture is nothing less than stunning.
The site has an intriguing mix of excavated and unexcavated temples in varying shapes, sizes, and states of decay, with some buildings taking on a mystical appearance
as they're swallowed up by trees and roots. Huge stone carved faces peer out in all directions. Extensive and intricate bas-reliefs line the walls and doorways. Crumbling
passageways and steep stone stairs call out for exploration.
Before its fall in the 15th century, Angkor Wat was the largest city in the world. The complex is huge, and you may want to spend a couple of days taking in the site.

by a Swiss explorer who followed some local tribesmen there; prior to that, it had been forgotten to the Western world. Though its founding is unknown, it appears this
place had settlers as early as the 6th century BC. Under Roman rule, the site declined rapidly [H1] [H2] and was abandoned by the late 4th century. In 1985, Petra

Movement in the Earth's crust causes an earthquake. The Earth is made of an inner core, an outer core and a mantle, and the nal layer is a thin crust covering the
mantle, which is the surface of the Earth including all the oceans and continents. The crust is made of separate rocky portions called tectonic plates, which lie on the
mantle like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle. But the jigsaw puzzle is mobile, and the plates move around. Some slide past each other horizontally, some push together and
force the ground upward, some slide beneath another plate and some pull apart. Whenever a tectonic plate moves suddenly, this causes an earthquake.
The sudden release of friction and pressure between tectonic plates causes an earthquake. Tectonic plates are made of rough rock and cannot slide pass each other
smoothly. Friction prevents movement at the plate edges while the rest of the plates continue to move, causing a build-up in pressure. When the pressure overcomes the
friction, the plates move suddenly, and shock waves from this sudden movement radiate through rock, soil, buildings and water. Usually, small foreshocks occur at rst,
followed by one big mainshock. Aftershocks follow and can continue for weeks, months or even years.
Fault lines are the areas where two or more tectonic plates join, and it's in these areas most earthquakes occur. Well-studied fault lines include the San Andreas Fault
that runs down the West Coast of North America and lines between Australia and Papua New Guinea, as well as in New Zealand, Tonga, Japan and Taiwan.
Earthquakes can also rarely occur in the middle of tectonic plates. Scientists aren't yet able to predict earthquakes, but people living near fault lines can help protect
themselves by living in earthquake-protected housing and practicing earthquake drills.

Once upon a time, there was a peaceful kingdom in central java. The kind king had a beautiful daughter whom he loved so much. He also had great horses that he even
asked a servant, named Suta to take care of them intensively.
His duty was to look after the king's horses, gave them food, cleaned the horses and their mews. Suta liked to take a walk after doing his chores to relax for a while.
One day, when Suta was walking near a lake after doing his chores, he heard a woman screaming. So, Suta hurried to nd the source of the scream. Finally, he found the
king's daughter in danger. A giant snake would attack her.
Suta was afraid, but he also worried about the princess. So he took a big stick and hit the snake on its head. The snake was fallen down in pain and nally died.
"No need for that princess. It's my duty as your father's servant to help you." Suta replied
"Would you be my friend, Suta. Because I don't have any friends." the princess asked.
"Of course my princess, I will be your friend and always take care of you." Suta answered.
Since that day, Suta and the princess became good friends. They even fell in love each other. So, the princess told Suta to go to her father and asked his permission to
marry her. But the king had already heard about their plan. The king was furious to hear about that so he asked the princess to meet him.
"My lovely daughter, I have already known about your plan. Suta is just a servant while you are my daughter, the princess. It is unacceptable for you to marry a servant."
said the king.
"But I love her, and he also love me. You know, he is the one who help me out there." the princess said.
"No, you will not marry him. I will not allow that." The king said.
The princess was sad to hear her father's answer, especially after her father throwed Suta in jail for having the nerve to ask the princess to marry him. In jail, Suta was
not given anything to eat or drink.
Hearing about that, the princess made a plan to break Suta out of the jail. They succeeded and ran far away for the kingdom. They rested near the river. There, they got
married and started a family.
The place where Suta and the princess raised their family was called Baturaden. Batur means servant while Raden means noble. Nowadays, Baturaden is very
interesting tourism spot. It's located at the foothill of Mount Slamet in Purwokerto, Central Java.

Cramming is when students stay up all night until morning to study before a test or nish an assignment. This habit can lead to negative impacts, the rst being that
disruptions in the regular sleep cycle can cause temporary intellectual lapses. For most students, less sleep can make them could not focus on the class. Additionally,
cramming can leave us with memory lapses as well.
Each person has a different sleeping schedule, so some of them often use a stimulant for cramming. An example stimulant, and the most common, is coffee. While
delicious and bene cial, it causes many problems in the long-term such as Caffeine Intoxication Syndrome, anxiety, panic, and headaches.
To sum up, cramming is not recommended because it disturbs a person’s sleep cycle which causes temporary intellectual lapses, and using stimulants for cramming
gives them a bad effect on their health.

Flash oods happen very fast and with little or no warning. This type of ood is more dangerous and deadly due to the fact that the water rises very quickly and there’s
usually a high ow pushing many things with it. Causes for this are heavy rainfall intensi cation and the vegetation and the physical features of the area. Urban areas
are most effected with ash oods due to the fact that they do not have as much natural drainage and because of the high amounts of impermeable surfaces. Flash
oods happens many times in a river because water can ow downhill onto the river and over ll it, making it ood.
Storm surges is the rising of sea levels, this happens because of high winds and with pressure changes and sometimes high tides. They happen because the friction
between the air and the water creates a drag. Extreme low-pressure systems and also tropical cyclones can create storm surges.
Dams are made to stop water from over owing in an area. But sometimes the dam is built and unpredictably the water is surpassing the maximum the dam can hold,
this releases a sudden burst of water which can cause ash oods and destroy many things because of how powerful the water is after the sudden burst and that it may
ow downstream to a town.

After many years denying Indian calls for independence, Britain nally agreed to full Indian independence in 1947. Indian independence was accompanied by a painful
separation and the birth of a new nation – Pakistan. The separation led to painful incidences of sectarian violence and killing; it led to the migration of many millions of
people who found themselves on the wrong side of the border. The independence of India also created a newly independent nation which claimed allegiance to neither
the US nor the Soviet Union – but a third way as Nehru called it. With economic development, India has the potential to become a new superpower in the coming
century.

The Honeymoon Stage is the rst stage of culture shock, and it can often last for several weeks or even months. This is the euphoric phase when you’re fascinated by all
the exciting and different aspects of your new life – from the sights and smells to the pace of life and cultural habits. During this phase, you’re quick to identify
similarities between the new culture and your own, and you nd the locals hospitable and friendly. You may even nd things that would be a nuisance back home, such
as a traf c jam, amusing and charming in your new location.
Next is the negotiation stage which is characterized by frustration and anxiety. This usually hits around the three-month mark, although it can be earlier for some
individuals. As the excitement gradually disappears you are continually faced with dif culties or uncomfortable situations that may offend or make you feel
disconnected. Maybe you can’t remember the way back to your new home because the street signs are confusing, or you can’t fathom how and what to order in a
restaurant. At this point, you also start to miss your friends and family back home.
Around 6 months, you will reach adjustment stage. This is the stage where life gradually starts to get better and routine sets in. You begin to become more familiar with
the local way of life, food and customs. By this point you may have made a few friends or learnt some of the languages, helping you to adjust and better understand the
local culture.
Finally, you reach the adaptation stage; sometimes know as the bicultural stage. You now feel comfortable in your new country and better integrated – you have
successfully adapted to your new way of life. You no longer feel isolated and lonely and are used to your new daily activities and friends. When coming back to your

Shopping addiction is a behavioral addiction that involves compulsive buying as a way to feel good and avoid negative feelings, such as anxiety and depression. Like
other behavioral addictions, shopping addiction can take over as a preoccupation that leads to problems in other areas of your life. Usually beginning in one's late teens
and early adulthood, shopping addiction often co-occurs with other disorders, including mood and anxiety disorders, substance use disorders, eating disorders, other
impulse control disorders, and personality disorders
So, what is the difference between normal shopping, occasional splurges, and shopping addiction? As with all addictions, what sets shopping addiction apart from other
types of shopping is that the behavior becomes the person’s main way of coping with stress, to the point where they continue to shop excessively even when it is clearly
having a negative impact on other areas of their life.
As with other addictions, money problems can develop and relationships can become damaged, yet people with shopping addiction (sometimes called "shopaholics")
feel unable to stop or even control their spending. People with shopping addiction tend to be more materialistic than other shoppers and try to prop themselves up by
seeking status through material objects and seeking approval from others. They engage in fantasy more than other people, and—as with other people with addictions—
have a hard time resisting their impulses.
As a result, they are more susceptible to marketing and advertising messages that surround us on a daily basis.

Once upon a time, there lived a husband and wife in the jungle of Lawu Mountain, East Java. They were Kyai Pasir and his wife Nyai Pasir. They lived peacefully. Kyai
Pasir was a farmer. He worked in a rice eld. Nyai Pasir just stayed at home.
Kyai Pasir left the house and went to his eld every morning. While he was walking, he stumbled upon something. He looked at the thing carefully, "What is this? Is this
an egg? But what kind of egg is this? It's very big."
Kyai Pasir put the egg back to the ground. At home, Kyai Pasir told his wife about the egg. "Why didn't you bring the egg home?" asked Nyai Pasir. "It's really big. I feel
strange about the egg," explained Kyai Pasir.
"If the egg is very big, then we both can eat it. Please bring the egg home, Kyai," asked Nyai Pasir.
On the following day, Kyai Pasir went to the eld as usual. He planned to bring the egg home as his wife's request. He did not want to stumble upon the egg for the
second time. He looked around carefully. Finally, he found the egg and brought it home.
Nyai Pasir did not wait for long to boil the egg. And when it was done, they both ate the egg. They both felt very full. And it made them fell asleep. In the
morning Kyai and Nyai Pasir woke up as usual and went to the eld.
On the way to the eld, he felt his body itchy and uncomfortable. He stretched his body. Suddenly he felt his throat so hot. He badly needed water. He was screaming in
pain. He was so shocked! His skin changed into scales. Just like scales of reptile. He touched his head. He felt something was growing on his head. He was completely
shocked. A horn was growing. And he also had a tail. He changed into a dragon! Meanwhile, at home Nyai Pasir also felt the same. Slowly Nyai Pasir also changed into a
dragon.
The two dragons were trying to walk but they were too weak to do that. They just could move their bodies on the ground. They moved their bodies so heavily and it
made a very big hole. The hole was getting deeper. Soon water came out of the hole. The water came out very much. And it made a lake.

In Australia, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced Friday a three-step plan for restarting economic and social life with July set as the nal “aspirational” target. In the rst phase to start
“soon”, weddings can have a maximum of 10 guests, cafes and restaurants can have up to 10 patrons with at least 4 square meters of space per person; but international travel is unlikely to
resume in the near future.
Last Friday Malaysia announced most businesses would be allowed to resume operations and childcare centres would open. However, parents remain fearful about taking chances. Therefore,
governments are assessing their own societies on when and how to go about relaxing restrictions.
In Indonesia as millions become deeply fearful about how to feed their families in the coming weeks, hopes are high that the economy can slowly resume. But however closely we may try to
imitate the disciplined measures in the above countries, there are already too many holes in the enforcement of the large-scale social restrictions (PSBB).
The national COVID-19 taskforce chief Doni Monardo said Wednesday that essential travel was now allowed, such as for medical personnel but he also described the presence of a military

ONCE upon a time, there was a kingdom in Lombok. The king had a very beautiful daughter. Her name was Princess Mandalika. She was very beautiful; many young princes fell in love with her
and wanted to marry her. Princess Mandalika was a kind girl. She hated to make people sad. When those princes came to propose her, she was very confused.
The king then held a competition at Seger Kuta beach, Lombok. He asked the princes to take part in an archery competition. The rule was simple: whoever shot the target perfectly, he could be
the husband Princess Mandalika.
The princes tried their best and they were great at archery. So, there was no a winner. Then they claimed to be the best and started ghting. Soon, the ghting was like a war, because the
princes brought their soldiers in the archery competition. Princess Mandalika was really worried. She did not want the war to hurt many people. Then, she got an idea. "I can't be all your wives. I
don't want you to ght because of me. I want you all to have me, but not as your wives. I want to be someone that everybody can have. I want to be useful for you," said Princess Mandalika. The
king and other people on the beach did not understand what she meant. Suddenly, Princess Mandalika jumped to the sea. She was disappeared in the big chaos waves. People were screaming.
The princes tried to swim to nd her. But no one dared to jump in the sea because the waves were too high.
After several hours trying to search the princess, suddenly they found a lot of sea worms on the beach. The king then realized that his daughter had returned as sea worms. Later he named the
worms as nyale.

Rainbows can be seen when light passes through raindrops, says Kristin Calhoun, a research scientist at the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the scienti c agency
focusing in part on the conditions of weather.
When a person sees a rainbow, it’s really an optical illusion created by the refraction and re ection of light. An optical illusion is when you see something that appears to be something other
than what is really there. They’re not located at a speci c distance. The location is relative to the person.
When sunlight passes through raindrops, the light bends, or refracts, as it enters the droplet, and then re ects off the inside of the raindrop. This happens because the water is denser than the
air that surrounds it. As it exits the droplet, the light separates into wavelengths. Visible light is made up of various wavelengths, and each wavelength appears as a different color: red, orange,
yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Red light, for example, bends at a different angle than violet light.
This is why “the person on the ground sees each color at a different location and why rainbows look like a bow or an arc. Sometimes, however, rainbows can actually form an entire circle that you
can see in a plane with the right conditions.
Because rainbows are created by light via raindrops, the best time to catch a rainbow is when it’s sunny and raining. There is an even better chance when the sun is at a lower angle, so early or
later in the day. If you’re trying to spot one, the key is to face the rain and have your back to the sun.
Based on paragraph 4, statement "Each color in rainbow bends at a similar angle", is included TRUE or FALSE?

So, what is the difference between normal shopping, occasional splurges, and shopping addiction? As with all addictions, what sets shopping addiction apart from other types of shopping is that
the behavior becomes the person’s main way of coping with stress, to the point where they continue to shop excessively even when it is clearly having a negative impact on other areas of their
life.
As with other addictions, money problems can develop and relationships can become damaged, yet people with shopping addiction (sometimes called "shopaholics") feel unable to stop or even
control their spending. People with shopping addiction tend to be more materialistic than other shoppers and try to prop themselves up by seeking status through material objects and seeking
approval from others. They engage in fantasy more than other people, and—as with other people with addictions—have a hard time resisting their impulses.
As a result, they are more susceptible to marketing and advertising messages that surround us on a daily basis.

Flash oods happen very fast and with little or no warning. This type of ood is more dangerous and deadly due to the fact that the water rises very quickly and there’s usually a high ow
pushing many things with it. Causes for this are heavy rainfall intensi cation and the vegetation and the physical features of the area. Urban areas are most effected with ash oods due to the
fact that they do not have as much natural drainage and because of the high amounts of impermeable surfaces. Flash oods happens many times in a river because water can ow downhill onto
the river and over ll it, making it ood.
Storm surges is the rising of sea levels, this happens because of high winds and with pressure changes and sometimes high tides. They happen because the friction between the air and the
water creates a drag. Extreme low-pressure systems and also tropical cyclones can create storm surges.
Dams are made to stop water from over owing in an area. But sometimes the dam is built and unpredictably the water is surpassing the maximum the dam can hold, this releases a sudden burst
of water which can cause ash oods and destroy many things because of how powerful the water is after the sudden burst and that it may ow downstream to a town.

Consumer behaviour is the study of knowing how individual customers, groups or organisations select, buy, use and dispose of ideas, goods and services to satisfy their needs and desires. It
refers to the actions of the consumers in the marketplace and the underlying motives for those actions. Let’s take a look at the stages of the consumer buying journey.
Often the rst step of the buying journey involves identifying a problem or a need. Sometimes, your customers need might be as simple as wanting to be an early adopter, someone who enjoys
being ‘ rst’ to have or use a particular product.
The next step is searching for a solution on how to solve the problem. Let’s take that new mobile phone you are thinking of buying. If your old phone has broken down, you can either research
repair shops or you can start looking at new models. Consumers conduct searches internally or externally. An internal search means that the consumer falls back on their personal experiences
(I’m an Apple fan) while external search relies on anecdotes from friends and family and probably the internet (your mum tells you to buy an android because they are better).
The third step in the consumer buying journey is all about comparing different brands and products, evaluating alternatives. After researching a product and building knowledge your customer
may decide to research alternative products available in the market.
Then comes “the actual purchase decision”. At this stage, the buyer has nished evaluating the alternatives and is ready to make a decision. This is the magical moment of truth when the
consumer selects a brand to purchase. In the evaluation phase, purchase intentions are developed after the buyer ranks the brand according to all options available to them.
Based on the above text, write the truth value (true/false) on each of the following statements.
B. Need recognition is the very rst step in the consumer buying journey.

Long, long ago, the mystical land of Gondwana was beautiful, peaceful and untouched. In Gondwana, there lived Tyawan, a Clever Man of the Gundungurra people. He had three daughters
called Meenhi, Wimlah and Gunnedoo, whom he treasured above all else.
In a deep hole in the valley there lived a Bunyip, a huge evil creature who loved to feast on human esh, particularly that of young girls and women. Its cry was harsh and horrible as if the only
safe thing to do was running away as quickly as possible. Everyone feared the Bunyip.
As everyone needed to pass its hole, it was important to creep very quietly so that it was not disturbed.
When Tyawan had to pass the hole, he would leave his daughters safely on the cliff above behind a rocky wall – just in case!
One day, waving goodbye to his daughters, he descended the cliff steps down towards the path near the Bunyip’s hole. While the girls were waiting and chatting on top of the cliff, a huge
centipede suddenly appeared. Startled, Meenhi screamed, jumped up, picked up a stone and threw it at the centipede.
The stone missed the centipede, but rolled over the edge of the cliff and, picking up speed, crashed into the valley below. The sound echoed all around the mountains. Birds, animals and even
fairies stopped still as the rocks behind the three sisters, shook and split open, leaving them perched together on a thin ledge.
The Bunyip, angry at being awakened, roared and dragged himself through the split to see the terri ed sisters cowering on the ledge. His evil eyes widened in delight at the feast before him.
Tyawan looked up and saw the Bunyip reaching for his daughters, so he pointed his magic bone at the girls and immediately turned them to stone. They would be safe there until the Bunyip had
gone and then Tyawan would change them back to their former selves.
But the Bunyip, angered at being deprived of his prey, chased Tyawan through the forest and up a mountain where he found himself trapped. So Tyawan used his magic bone again and changed
himself into a Lyre Bird and glided away. Everyone was safe. But then, in dismay, Tyawan realised that he had dropped his bone whilst changing.
After the Bunyip had gone back to his deep dark pool, Tyawan glided down to the forest oor and searched and searched for his magic bone ... where he can still be seen to this day, in the shape
of the Lyre bird, scratching and searching the forest oors of the Blue Mountains, looking for his bone, calling to his daughters above and feeding on insects whilst he searches.
The Three Sisters stand silently watching him from their ledge, hoping and hoping that one day their father will nd his magic bone and be able turn them back to Aboriginal girls.

Long time ago in China, girls were expected to stay at home and learnt household work while the boys went to school, but a girl named Zhu conceived a desire to study but her father did not
want to ght against tradition. He was con dent that no school would admit a girl even Zhu’s family was wealthy.
Zhu disguised herself as a boy and managed to get a school in the city of Hangzhou, where her aunt lived.
There was a boy named Liang in her class. The two became good friends. As the years passed they became inseparable companions. Zhu realized that she was in love. She wanted to stay with
Liang the rest of her life.
After nishing school, Liang lost no time in taking up a job, and when he had saved enough to get married he hastened to Zhu’s house. Zhu saw him coming, and was overjoyed. “I’m your friend,
as you can see I’m a girl. Unable to restrain herself she rushed out, I cannot live without you!"
Liang was dazed but it soon recovered and caught Zhu in a warm embrace. Zhu took him to her father who listened attentively to what Liang had to say, but when the young man asked for Zhu’s
hand, he shook his head. He told Liang that Zhu had already been promised to another man, a wealthy merchant. Nothing that Liang said could make Zhu’s father change his mind. Liang left,
shattered. On the way, he collapsed and died.
When Zhu learnt of Liang’s death, she lost all desire to continue living. She pretended to agree to the marriage arranged for her on one condition that the wedding procession passed by Liang’s
grave. As the wedding procession near, Zhu jumped down from her palanquin and rushing to Liang’s grave threw herself on it, sobbing uncontrollably. Zhu leapt into it. When Zhu’s relatives

Social media, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tik Tok and many others have become nearly inescapable facets of modern life, particularly for teenagers. Social media is becoming more than
just a part of their world, but it’s becoming their world. Teenagers are spending more time online, usually on a social media platform like Facebook or Twitter. Most teenagers have smart phones
where they are on social media networks all throughout the day now. They are constantly texting, tweeting, and posting pictures via Snapchat and Instagram. However, hyper-connected to
social media could be bad for them.
Using social media too much is not good for teenagers because social media in this era has become a place to bully someone. Now, bullying has moved, not only in the schools or in the other
places but also in online social media as an online bullying place. If teenagers are getting bullied, they cannot get away from it. The people will continue to bully them back via social media.
Today, teenagers use social media as their life online from the time they wake up until they back to sleep via their smart phone. A new study has found that teenagers who engage with social
media during the night could disturb their sleep and increase the risk of anxiety and depression. Teenagers are so enthusiastic in using social media. They will wake up at night and log in their
social media, just to make sure that they don’t miss out any text or post.
Another impact of social media for teenagers is, teenagers are being more comfortable doing online than doing something physically. A separate study by the National Citizen Service found that,
rather than talking to their parents, girls are more comfort on social media when they are worried. The survey also has notion that girls are more often stress than boys – an average of twice a
week.
Social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and many others are basically created to connect everyone around the world, so they can interact and communicate each other. However, too
much exposure of social media can also be bad especially for teenagers. As it mentioned above, I believe social media could become media for bullying, risk them of anxiety and depression, and
risk their real-life social interaction. Therefore, social media are dangerous for teenagers’ health both mentally and emotionally.

The Greeks that came to the Sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia shared the same religious beliefs and spoke the same language. The athletes were all male citizens of the city-states from every
corner of the Greek world, coming from as far away as Iberia (Spain) in the west and the Black Sea (Turkey) in the east.
The sanctuary was named in antiquity after Mt. Olympos the highest mountain in mainland Greece. In Greek mythology, Mt. Olympos was the home of the greatest of the Greek gods and
goddesses.
The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC, when Koroibos, a cook from the nearby city of Elis, won the stadion race, a foot race 600 feet long. The stadion track at Olympia is shown
here. According to some literary traditions, this was the only athletic event of the games for the rst 13 Olympic festivals or until 724 BC. From 776 BC, the Games were held in Olympia every
four years for almost 12 centuries.
Contrary evidence, both literary and archaeological, suggests that the games may have existed at Olympia much earlier than this date, perhaps as early as the 10th or 9th century BC.

students continue their education through online learning and via video calls with their teachers, especially in big cities such as Jakarta. The model is currently the best
alternative as keeping schools open poses a safety risk for students. Globally, many countries have adopted this approach. Schools in New York, the United States,

Reports about the easing of restrictions in other countries are ever so tempting. Even in China where a second wave of COVID-19 infections is not ruled out,
kindergartens have opened; likewise, classes have started in Japan and Denmark with school staff taking temperatures at the door and with desks set further apart than
usual.
In Australia, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced Friday a three-step plan for restarting economic and social life with July set as the nal “aspirational” target. In the
rst phase to start “soon”, weddings can have a maximum of 10 guests, cafes and restaurants can have up to 10 patrons with at least 4 square meters of space per
person; but international travel is unlikely to resume in the near future.
Last Friday Malaysia announced most businesses would be allowed to resume operations and childcare centres would open. However, parents remain fearful about
taking chances. Therefore, governments are assessing their own societies on when and how to go about relaxing restrictions.
In Indonesia as millions become deeply fearful about how to feed their families in the coming weeks, hopes are high that the economy can slowly resume. But however
closely we may try to imitate the disciplined measures in the above countries, there are already too many holes in the enforcement of the large-scale social restrictions

One of the biggest advantages of working online is that there is no work pressure. Compared to of ce work, online jobs are less stressful, and no one will be following or
supervising you all the time. You will plan yourself freely
In respect to time, online jobs offer huge exibility. You have the power to schedule your working hours. You will not be tied in an of ce from 9-6 even when you have
already nished the day’s duty. Such gives you a chance to work on other personal obligations as well or on what you are best at.
Working without someone over you is a fantasy to many people. With online jobs, you will be your boss. What else are you looking for in a job? You will not be shouted
at from time to time nor will anyone scold you even for the smallest mistakes.
With online jobs, you will be able to work for different clients. This means more work and gives you the opportunity to choose the one with the best rates. The more
clients you have, the better you will be earning. Some online workers earn more than of ce workers.
Another reason why people are opting for online jobs is that they can experiment on different jobs. For example, if you feel that whatever you have been doing is
becoming monotonous, you can switch to another job. Such freedoms make the work very interesting

The next step is searching for a solution on how to solve the problem. Let’s take that new mobile phone you are thinking of buying. If your old phone has broken down,
you can either research repair shops or you can start looking at new models. Consumers conduct searches internally or externally. An internal search means that the
consumer falls back on their personal experiences (I’m an Apple fan) while external search relies on anecdotes from friends and family and probably the internet (your
mum tells you to buy an android because they are better).
The third step in the consumer buying journey is all about comparing different brands and products, evaluating alternatives. After researching a product and building
knowledge your customer may decide to research alternative products available in the market.
Then comes “the actual purchase decision”. At this stage, the buyer has nished evaluating the alternatives and is ready to make a decision. This is the magical moment
of truth when the consumer selects a brand to purchase. In the evaluation phase, purchase intentions are developed after the buyer ranks the brand according to all
options available to them.

And tasted the sweet perfume of the mountain grass I rolled down
And I've not seen the roaring elds in so long, I know I've grown

And I miss the way you make me feel, and it's real
Running from the law through the back elds and getting drunk with my friends
Had my rst kiss on a Friday night, I don't reckon that I did it right

A geyser is a rare kind of hot spring that is under pressure and erupts, sending jets of water and steam into the air.
Geysers are made from a tube-like hole in the Earth's surface that runs deep into the crust. The tube is lled with water. Near the bottom of the tube is molten rock
called magma, which heats the water in the tube. Water in the lower part of the tube, close to the magma, becomes superhot. Gradually, it begins to boil. Some of the
water is forced upward. The boiling water begins to steam, or turn to gas. The steam jets toward the surface. Its powerful jet of steam ejects the column of water above
it. The water rushes through the tube and into the air.
The eruption will continue until all the water is forced out of the tube, or until the temperature inside the geyser drops below boiling (100 degrees Celsius, or 212
degrees Fahrenheit, at sea level).
After the eruption, water slowly seeps back into the tube. The process begins again. In some small geysers, the eruption process can take just a few minutes. In larger
geysers, it can take days. The most famous geyser in the United States, Yellowstone National Park's Old Faithful, erupts about every 50-100 minutes.

The old couple raised Momotaro to be big and strong. One day, he decided to go and defeat the ogres living on Ogre Island that were pillaging the land. The old woman
xed him some delicious millet dumplings, known as kibi-dango, for his long journey to the island. On the way, a monkey, a dog, and a pheasant joined him, giving them

Once upon a time, there lived a husband and wife in the jungle of Lawu Mountain, East Java. They were Kyai Pasir and his wife Nyai Pasir. They lived peacefully. Kyai
Pasir was a farmer. He worked in a rice eld. Nyai Pasir just stayed at home.
Kyai Pasir left the house and went to his eld every morning. While he was walking, he stumbled upon something. He looked at the thing carefully, "What is this? Is this
an egg? But what kind of egg is this? It's very big."
Kyai Pasir put the egg back to the ground. At home, Kyai Pasir told his wife about the egg. "Why didn't you bring the egg home?" asked Nyai Pasir. "It's really big. I feel
strange about the egg," explained Kyai Pasir.
"If the egg is very big, then we both can eat it. Please bring the egg home, Kyai," asked Nyai Pasir.
On the following day, Kyai Pasir went to the eld as usual. He planned to bring the egg home as his wife's request. He did not want to stumble upon the egg for the
second time. He looked around carefully. Finally, he found the egg and brought it home.
Nyai Pasir did not wait for long to boil the egg. And when it was done, they both ate the egg. They both felt very full. And it made them fell asleep. In the
morning Kyai and Nyai Pasir woke up as usual and went to the eld.
On the way to the eld, he felt his body itchy and uncomfortable. He stretched his body. Suddenly he felt his throat so hot. He badly needed water. He was screaming in
pain. He was so shocked! His skin changed into scales. Just like scales of reptile. He touched his head. He felt something was growing on his head. He was completely
shocked. A horn was growing. And he also had a tail. He changed into a dragon! Meanwhile, at home Nyai Pasir also felt the same. Slowly Nyai Pasir also changed into a
dragon.
The two dragons were trying to walk but they were too weak to do that. They just could move their bodies on the ground. They moved their bodies so heavily and it
made a very big hole. The hole was getting deeper. Soon water came out of the hole. The water came out very much. And it made a lake.

The Battle of Constantinople 1453 took place on land, sea and underground. The peak moment of the conquest of Constantinople occurred when Al-Fatih decided to
move the Ottoman warships overland to avoid the underwater chains installed by Roman Byzantium. In just one night, about 70 ships were able to enter the area of the
Golden Horn strait and carry out a total attack on the heart of the defense of Constantinople. On May 29, 1453, Al-Fatih with the Ottoman troops were able to conquer
Constantinople as a whole.

Rainbows can be seen when light passes through raindrops, says Kristin Calhoun, a research scientist at the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA),
the scienti c agency focusing in part on the conditions of weather.
When a person sees a rainbow, it’s really an optical illusion created by the refraction and re ection of light. An optical illusion is when you see something that appears to
be something other than what is really there. They’re not located at a speci c distance. The location is relative to the person.
When sunlight passes through raindrops, the light bends, or refracts, as it enters the droplet, and then re ects off the inside of the raindrop. This happens because the
water is denser than the air that surrounds it. As it exits the droplet, the light separates into wavelengths. Visible light is made up of various wavelengths, and each
wavelength appears as a different colour: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Red light, for example, bends at a different angle than violet light.
This is why “the person on the ground sees each colour at a different location and why rainbows look like a bow or an arc. Sometimes, however, rainbows can actually
form an entire circle that you can see in a plane with the right conditions.
Because rainbows are created by light via raindrops, the best time to catch a rainbow is when it’s sunny and raining. There is an even better chance when the sun is at a
lower angle, so early or later in the day. If you’re trying to spot one, the key is to face the rain and have your back to the sun.

Due to the effect that it has on the brain, social media is addictive both physically and psychologically. According to a new study by Harvard University, self-disclosure on
social networking sites lights up the same part of the brain that also ignites when taking an addictive substance. The reward area in the brain and its chemical
messenger pathways affect decisions and sensations.
This is observable in social media usage; when an individual gets a noti cation, such as a like or mention, the brain receives a rush of dopamine and sends it along
reward pathways, causing him or her to feel pleasure. Social media provides an endless number of immediate rewards in the form of attention from others for relatively
minimal effort. Therefore, the brain rewires itself through this positive reinforcement, making people desire likes, retweets, and emoticon reactions.
Another perpetuating factor of social media addiction is the fact that the reward centers of the brain are most active when people are talking about themselves. In real
life, it’s estimated that people talk about themselves around 30 to 40% of the time; however, social media is all about showing off one’s life and accomplishments, so
people talk about themselves a staggering 80% of the time. When a person posts a picture and gets positive social feedback, it stimulates the brain to release
dopamine, which again rewards that behavior and perpetuates the social media habit.
Social media use becomes problematic when someone views social networking sites as an important coping mechanism to relieve stress, loneliness, or depression. For
these people, social media use provides continuous rewards that they’re not receiving in real life, and end up engaging in the activity more and more. This continuous use
eventually leads to multiple interpersonal problems, such as ignoring real life relationships, work or school responsibilities, and physical health, which may then
exacerbate an individual’s undesirable moods. This then causes people to engage in the social networking behavior even more as a way of relieving dysphoric mood
states. Consequently, when social network users repeat this cyclical pattern of relieving undesirable moods with social media use, the level of psychological dependency
on social media increases.

loved so much. The king also had great horses that he even asked a servent, named Suta to take care of them intensively.
. His duty was to look after the king's horses, gave them food, cleaned the horses and their mews. Suta liked to take a walk after doing his chores to relax for awile.
One day, when Suta was walking near a lake after doing his chores, he heard a woman screaming. So, Suta hurried to nd the source of the scream. Finally, he found a
girl there, who leter gured out as king's daughter. He saw the king's daughter in danger. There was a giant snake would attack her.
Suta was afraid, but he also worried about the princess. So he took a big stick and hit the snake on its head. The snake was fallen down in pain and nally died.
"No needed for that princess. It's my duty as your father's servant to help you." Suta replied
"Would you be my friend, Suta. Because I don't have any friend." the princess asked.
"Of course my princess, I will be your friend and always take care of you." Suta answered.
Since that day, Suta and the princess became good friends. They even fallen in love each other. So, the princess told Suta to go to her father and asked his permission to
marry her. But the king had already heared about their plan. The king was furious to hear about that so he asked the princess to meet him.
"My lovely daughter, I have already known about your plan. Suta is just a servant while you are my daughter, the princess. It is unacceptable for you to marry a servant."
said the king.
"But I love her, and he also love me. You know, he is the one who help me out there." the princess said.
"No, you will not marry him. I will not allow that things happen." The king said.
The princess was sad to hear her father's answer, especially after her father throwed Suta in jail for having the nerve to ask the pricess to marry him. In jail, Suta was not
given anything to eat or drink.
Hearing about that, the princess made a plan to break Suta out of jail. They succeed and run far away for the kingdom. They rested near the river. There, they got married
and started a family.
The place where Suta and the princess raised their family was called Baturraden. Batur means servant while Raden means noble. Nowadays, Baturaden is very
interesting tourism spot. It's located at the foothill of Mount Slamet in Purwokerto, Central Java.

The Greeks that came to the Sanctuary of Zeus at Olympia shared the same religious beliefs and spoke the same language. The athletes were all male citizens of the
city-states from every corner of the Greek world, coming from as far away as Iberia (Spain) in the west and the Black Sea (Turkey) in the east.
The sanctuary was named in antiquity after Mt. Olympos the highest mountain in mainland Greece. In Greek mythology, Mt. Olympos was the home of the greatest of
the Greek gods and goddesses.
The ancient Olympic Games began in the year 776 BC, when Koroibos, a cook from the nearby city of Elis, won the stadion race, a foot race 600 feet long. The stadion
track at Olympia is shown here. According to some literary traditions, this was the only athletic event of the games for the rst 13 Olympic festivals or until 724 BC.
From 776 BC, the Games were held in Olympia every four years for almost 12 centuries.
Contrary evidence, both literary and archaeological, suggests that the games may have existed at Olympia much earlier than this date, perhaps as early as the 10th or
9th century BC.

Firstly, by online learning people can t them around their existing responsibilities and commitments, and can engage with multimedia content and learning materials at
whatever time is most convenient to them. Even better: they don’t have to travel anywhere to study, they can simply log in to the virtual class from the comfort of their
own home or of ce.
Secondly, it’s cheaper. Cost can often be a prohibitive factor in why individual students don’t enroll in courses they’re interested in. This is also an issue for corporations
who wish to encourage their employees to undergo further training but don’t have much of a budget for conferences and training courses. Online courses are easily
accessible on much smaller budgets.
In addition to the convenience and the cost, a large number of students are turning to online learning courses because they have become a better way to learn. Those
students who are serious about improving their understanding, learning new skills and gaining valuable quali cations are keen to enroll in the type of course that will be

The Honeymoon Stage is the rst stage of culture shock, and it can often last for several weeks or even months. This is the euphoric phase when you’re fascinated by all
the exciting and different aspects of your new life – from the sights and smells to the pace of life and cultural habits. During this phase, you’re quick to identify
similarities between the new culture and your own, and you nd the locals hospitable and friendly. You may even nd things that would be a nuisance back home, such
as a traf c jam, amusing and charming in your new location.
Next is the negotiation stage which is characterized by frustration and anxiety. This usually hits around the three-month mark, although it can be earlier for some
individuals. As the excitement gradually disappears you are continually faced with dif culties or uncomfortable situations that may offend or make you feel
disconnected. Maybe you can’t remember the way back to your new home because the street signs are confusing, or you can’t fathom how and what to order in a
restaurant. At this point, you also start to miss your friends and family back home.
Around 6 months, you will reach adjustment stage. This is the stage where life gradually starts to get better and routine sets in. You begin to become more familiar with
the local way of life, food and customs. By this point you may have made a few friends or learnt some of the languages, helping you to adjust and better understand the
local culture.
Finally, you reach the adaptation stage; sometimes know as the bicultural stage. You now feel comfortable in your new country and better integrated – you have
successfully adapted to your new way of life. You no longer feel isolated and lonely and are used to your new daily activities and friends. When coming back to your
place, you may experience re-entry shock.

As everyone needed to pass its hole, it was important to creep very quietly so that it was not disturbed.
When Tyawan had to pass the hole, he would leave his daughters safely on the cliff above behind a rocky wall – just in case!
One day, waving goodbye to his daughters, he descended the cliff steps down towards the path near the Bunyip’s hole. While the girls were waiting and chatting on top
of the cliff, a huge centipede suddenly appeared. Startled, Meenhi screamed, jumped up, picked up a stone and threw it at the centipede.
The stone missed the centipede, but rolled over the edge of the cliff and, picking up speed, crashed into the valley below. The sound echoed all around the mountains.
Birds, animals and even fairies stopped still as the rocks behind the three sisters, shook and split open, leaving them perched together on a thin ledge.
The Bunyip, angry at being awakened, roared and dragged himself through the split to see the terri ed sisters cowering on the ledge. His evil eyes widened in delight at
the feast before him.
Tyawan looked up and saw the Bunyip reaching for his daughters, so he pointed his magic bone at the girls and immediately turned them to stone. They would be safe
there until the Bunyip had gone and then Tyawan would change them back to their former selves.
But the Bunyip, angered at being deprived of his prey, chased Tyawan through the forest and up a mountain where he found himself trapped. So Tyawan used his magic
bone again and changed himself into a Lyre Bird and glided away. Everyone was safe. But then, in dismay, Tyawan realised that he had dropped his bone whilst
changing.
After the Bunyip had gone back to his deep dark pool, Tyawan glided down to the forest oor and searched and searched for his magic bone ... where he can still be seen
to this day, in the shape of the Lyre bird, scratching and searching the forest oors of the Blue Mountains, looking for his bone, calling to his daughters above and feeding
on insects whilst he searches.
The Three Sisters stand silently watching him from their ledge, hoping and hoping that one day their father will nd his magic bone and be able turn them back to
Aboriginal girls.
