The activitise in the class that i like is Drama,because i can how the character that i can make n i also know my talent to be actress
Task 2:Cell
Mobile phones became 'mobiles'.
Now, cell phone was tricky because some people spelled it as one word and some people spelled it as two.
So it seems you can use both spellings at the moment.
But either way, people shortened the phrase to 'cell'.
nowadays,cell phone is very important to contact everybody and it also waste the time because we no need to wait for a lOng time to speak with somebody...
Task:In Your Dream
i realized this program is wishing us to quicken our reading and improve our comprehension,while at the same time expand our general knowledge.
Initially,i cannot grasp the meaning of the talk by Prof but i'm able to understand what the Prof David Crystal trying to tell after i listened the talk again and read the tapescript.
"In Your Dream". It meant someone is being unrealistic, very optimistic, very hopeful and wish their dream will come true..but we don't know when,where,and how it happen..
mis rajina i'm here....remember me.??.cinderella's stepsister..
so fierce,right??hehe..
First of all,i want to say thanks to miss Rajina because she is a good lecturer.
She make our class cheerful with her jokes and can impoved my English such as my skill in speaking,reading,vocabulary,writing,pronounciation and etc.
In the drama class,now i can speak better than before and i also more confidence when i make the presentation in front of the audience.
I have got many experience during foundation english class that i should finished Longman assigment.I must wait for along time to get my turn to do that assigment.it's make me so tension but it is useful for me.
That's all!!.....

After I listen this topic,I can't understanding the pronounciation by Prof.David Crystal and he read very fast I can't follow him and unclearly. So I listen many times while I read the transcript and try to understanding it.
Beside this I follow the Prof.David Crystal to pronoun the words and I also learn many new words from this transcript.
After I listening and reading, now I knew the peple who were born 20,30 years before and entering their 30s and not knowing how to cope.
I think this transcript can give me more information about the human being and it can more understanding the behaviour human.I think it can impove my pronounciation to be clearly and rightly.It also help me to improve my vocabulary to become good and learn more words and the meaning.Beside this listening also improve because when I listen I can understand the mening and what are the transcript talking about if without the transcript.So my english will become good.

After I listening, I can't understanding the Prof.David Crystal talking about because he talk very fast, I can't follow him and the pronounciation very fast and unclear for me. It may be the slang will be different between each other but I never give up I still listen many times while read the transcript try to understand the article.
I learn the new words when I read this article and also learn pronounciation to pronoun the difficult words.This can improve my pronounciation and my vocabulary and also listening.
I think many people have dreams and different with each other,it meant someone is being unrealistic,very optimistic and very hopeful.Many people perhaps their dreams will be true after this and hope to get something are they wanted.

After i listened the short talk about "Bless" , i got something. In this modern society, sometimes we are talking some phases sentences with different tune can represent opposite means or other means.Example, "God bless you."1. Before the exam start, friends will give bless each other sincerely. "God bless you." It represent a positive mean.2. If someone scold u with rudely tune, "God bless you!" It become a negative means that comminate you.So, I think that English languege is usually funny and interesting. i'm happy to learn the English languege although i am poor. i hope to get more improvement throught the English class.

Trouble
We have many tasks and assignment should to do. One of these tasks that give trouble to us is Longman Online Learning Program. It is inconvenience to us because all of the students of foundation English class (more than 30 classes) should do it in the cyber of library. We usually waste the time in waiting to use the computer. The cyber of library just provide 12 hours to do this program but we got many part should to do, it not enough for us. Unless we just do the exercise question and skip reading the note as well as the speaking part.
Even though it is making bother for us but we can improve our English from this Online Learning Program.
