      My Football Experience

When I was in junior high school, I really loved
football. Every Saturday afternoon I practised in
school  field with my team and my coach. They were
strong and smart players. My coach, Mr Wasito was
a kind person. But, while he was coaching us, he was
very discipline. He would grounded anyone who
came late and not obeyed the team’s rules.

With Mr Wasito, our team won many tournament
in many big cities. Our team named after our school,
Raji Team (from MTs Raji) and we had many fans too,
you know. Ohh, that was so cool. Now, I still love
football and have a team too. But, my parents warn
me to pay attention more to my study, football just for
hobby.

1. Where was the writer practice playing football ?

       My Memorable Holiday

I want to tell you about my memorable time in Singapore. It was one of the best holdays I ever had.

I will never forget the spectacular view of the city I saw from Mount Fable that night. The roller coaster ride and the stunts performed by dolphins and a killer whale at Sea World were also exciting. I will remember the thrill of having been on one of the longest rides in the monorail in Sentosa Island for many years to come. I also enjoyed various seafood at the Makeshift roadside stalls at the Chinatown night market.

I also enjoyed the shopping trips. My family and friends agreed that the souvenirs were value for money, especially the silk scarves with pretty pattern and the attractive key chains.

   Great Moment on Lawu

​Last weekend, my friends and I went camping in the mountain Lawu. We reached the camping ground as we walked for about a half hour from the parking lot. We built the camp next to the rocks and trees. It was getting dark and cold enveloped us, so we built a bonfire. The next day, we spent our time observing plantation and insects while the girls were preparing food for lunch together. In the afternoon we went to the river and catch a fish for dinner. At night, we held a bonfire night. We sing, dance, read poetry, comedy, having fun, playing magic tricks, and even some of us do stand up comedy and highly entertaining us all to laugh.

Example 2

 A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a great flood, a big fire or an earthquake. It usually causes great suffering and loss of a large sum of money. The casualties are injured or died. Some people are homeless and need medical care.

Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or streams overflow their banks and pour onto the surrounding land. Floods are caused by many different things. Often heavy rainstorms that last for a brief can cause a flood. But not all heavy storms are followed by flooding. If the surrounding land is flat and can absorb the water, no flooding will occur. If, however, the land is hard and rocky, heavy rain cannot be absorbed. Where the banks are low, a river may overflow and flood adjacent lowland.In many part of the world flood are caused by tropical storms called hurricanes or typhoons. They bring destructive winds of high speed, torrents of rain, and flooding. When a flood occurs, the destruction to surrounding land can be severe. Whole villages and towns are sometimes swept away by water pouring swiftly over the land. Railroad track blocked and uprooted from their beds. Highways are washed away.

When a building caught fire, the firemen pitched in to help battle the blaze. Before the pumps were invented, people formed bucket brigades to fight fires. Standing side by side, they formed a human chain from the fire to nearby well or river. They passed buckets of water from to hand to be poured on the flames.

The damage of the fire did depend a great deal on where it happened. In the country or a small village, only a single house might burn down. But in crowded cities, fire often destroyed whole blocks and neighborhoods before being controlled.

1. What can possibly prevent rivers and lakes from overflowing?

a. An absorbent bed.

b. A rocky surrounding.

c. A low land.

d. A high bank.

e. A high road.

2. We know from the text that . . . .

a. River can sweep heavy flood

b. People can make money from flood

c. The destruction by flood is always less severe

d. Water flood is absorbed by land

e. Typhoons caused heavy flood

3. We know from the text that . . . .

a. The pump is the only tool used by fire fighters now

b. The pump helps people to fight fires more efficiently

c. Fires in big cities are always very big

d. People no longer use buckets to control file

e. Only firemen can control fires in crowded cities

Haze is traditionally an atmospheric phenomenon where dust, smoke and other dry particles obscure the clarity of the sky. The World Meteorological Organization manual of codes includes a classification of horizontal obscuration into categories of fog, ice fog, steam fog, mist, haze, smoke, volcanic ash, dust, sand and snow.[1] Sources for haze particles include farming (ploughing in dry weather), traffic, industry, and wildfires.

Seen from a far (e.g. approaching airplane) and depending upon the direction of view with respect to the sun, haze may appear brownish or bluish, while mist tends to be bluish-grey. Whereas haze often is thought of as a phenomenon of dry air, mist formation is a phenomenon of humid air. However, haze particles may act as condensation nuclei for the subsequent formation of mist droplets; such forms of haze are known as "wet haze."

The term "haze", in meteorological literature, generally is used to denote visibility-reducing aerosols of the wet type. Such aerosols commonly arise from complex chemical reactions that occur as sulfur dioxide gases emitted during combustion are converted into small droplets of sulphuric acid. The reactions are enhanced in the presence of sunlight, high relative humidity, and stagnant air flow. A small component of wet haze aerosols appear to be derived from compounds released by trees, such as terpenes. For all these reasons, wet haze tends to be primarily a warm-season phenomenon. Large areas of haze covering many thousands of kilometers may be produced under favorable conditions each summer.

1.There are many causes of obscuring the clarity of the sky except:

a.Dust

b.Smoke

c.Dry particles

d.Traffic

2.In order to know the color of haze we should read :

A wildfire or wildland fire is a fire in an area of combustible vegetation that occurs in the countryside or rural area.[1] Depending on the type of vegetation where it occurs, a wildfire can also be classified more specifically as a brush fire, bush fire, desert fire, forest fire, grass fire, hill fire, peat fire, vegetation fire, or veld fire.[2] Fossil charcoal indicates that wildfires began soon after the appearance of terrestrial plants 420 million years ago.[3] Wildfire’s occurrence throughout the history of terrestrial life invites conjecture that fire must have had pronounced evolutionary effects on most ecosystems' flora and fauna.[4] Earth is an intrinsically flammable planet owing to its cover of carbon-rich vegetation, seasonally dry climates, atmospheric oxygen, and widespread lightning and volcano ignitions.[4]

Wildfires can be characterized in terms of the cause of ignition, their physical properties, the combustible material present, and the effect of weather on the fire.[5] Wildfires can cause damage to property and human life, but they have many beneficial effects on native vegetation, animals, and ecosystems that have evolved with fire.[6][7] Many plant species depend on the effects of fire for growth and reproduction.[8] However, wildfire in ecosystems where wildfire is uncommon or where non-native vegetation has encroached may have negative ecological effects.[5] Wildfire behaviour and severity result from the combination of factors such as available fuels, physical setting, and weather.[9][10][11] Analyses of historical meteorological data and national fire records in western North America show the primacy of climate in driving large regional fires via wet periods that create substantial fuels or drought and warming that extend conducive fire weather.[12]

Strategies of wildfire prevention, detection, and suppression have varied over the years.[13] One common and inexpensive technique is controlled burning: permitting or even igniting smaller fires to minimize the amount of flammable material available for a potential wildfire.[14][15] Vegetation may be burned periodically to maintain high species diversity and frequent burning of surface fuels limits fuel accumulation.[16][17] Wildland fire use is the cheapest and most ecologically appropriate policy for many forests.[18] Fuels may also be removed by logging, but fuels treatments and thinning have no effect on severe fire behavior.[19] Wildfire itself is reportedly "the most effective treatment for reducing a fire's rate of spread, fireline intensity, flame length, and heat per unit of area" according to Jan Van Wagtendonk, a biologist at the Yellowstone Field Station.[20] Building codes in fire-prone areas typically require that structures be built of flame-resistant materials and a defensible space be maintained by clearing flammable materials within a prescribed distance from the structure.[21][22]

Soil erosion is the displacement of upper layer of soil. one form of soil degradation. The erosion of soil is a naturally occurring process on all land. The agents of soil erosion are water and wind, each contributing a significant amount of soil loss each year. Soil erosion may be a slow process that continues relatively unnoticed, or it may occur at an alarming rate causing a serious loss of topsoil. The loss of soil from farmland may be reflected in reduced crop production potential, lower surface water quality and damaged drainage networks.

While erosion is a natural process, human activities have increased by 10–40 times the rate at which erosion is occurring globally. Excessive (or accelerated) erosion causes both "on-site" and "off-site" problems. On-site impacts include decreases in agricultural productivity and (on natural landscapes) ecological collapse, both because of loss of the nutrient-rich upper soil layers. In some cases, the eventual end result is desertification. Off-site effects include sedimentation of waterways and eutrophication of water bodies, as well as sediment-related damage to roads and houses. Water and wind erosion are the two primary causes of land degradation; combined, they are responsible for about 84% of the global extent of degraded land, making excessive erosion one of the most significant environmental problems worldwide.[1][2]

Intensive agriculture, deforestation, roads, anthropogenic climate change and urban sprawl are amongst the most significant human activities in regard to their effect on stimulating erosion.[3] However, there are many prevention and remediation practices that can curtail or limit erosion of vulnerable soils.

Drought is a state of shortage of water supply in an area in which a prolonged period (several months to years). These events typically occur if a region is continuously subjected to rainfall below average. Prolonged drought will cause drought because groundwater reserves will be depleted by evaporation (evaporation), transpiration, or other uses by humans.

Drought can be a natural disaster when it causes a region decreases its  sources of income due to disruption in agriculture and ecosystems caused. Economic and ecological impact of the drought is a process that drought restrictions in each field may vary. However, a brief but intense droughts can also cause significant damage.

The UN calculates that every year an area of ​​fertile land territory of Ukraine is lost due to drought, deforestation, and climate irregularity.]

A result that can be caused by drought in demographics are mass migration, as happened in the Horn of Africa and the Sahel.

Haze / smog, an adaptation of the English term smog (smoke and fog), is a case of severe air pollution that can occur days to months.

Under the weather conditions that prevented the circulation of air, smog can cover an area in a long time, as is the case in London, Los Angeles, Athens, Beijing, Hong Kong or the Ruhr Area and continues to accumulate and lead to harm.

The word "smog" is an abbreviation of "smoke" and "fog", although the subsequent development of smog do not have to have one component of fog or smoke. Smog is also often associated with air pollution.

The term "smog" was first proposed by Dr. Henry Antoine Des Voeux in 1950 in his scientific work "Fog and Smoke" in a meeting at the Public Health Congress. On 26 July 2005, the London newspaper, the Daily Graphic quoted the terms "[H] e said it required no science to see that there was something produced in great Cities which was not found in the country, and that was smoky fog, or what was known as 'smog.' "(Dr. Henry Antoine Des Voeux states that are not needed scientific knowledge whatsoever to detect the presence of something that has been produced in a big city but is not found in the township, the" smoky fog "(haze is smoke), or also called smog (smog).). The next day the newspaper back proclaiming "Dr. Des Voeux did a public service in coining a new word for the London fog "(Dr. Des Voeux stints community service by introducing new terms, smog).

Source

There are two major types of smog. Photochemical smog, as is the case in Los Angeles, and smog Industries such as in London.

photochemical smog

The main cause of photochemical smog is the pollutant nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbons. Nitrogen oxides come from vehicles while the hydrocarbons derived from various sources. Both the pollution substances undergo photochemical reactions to form ozone

Industrial smog

Smog is going on in London after the industrial revolution which resulted in massive pollution from burning coal. This combustion produces a mixture of smoke and sulfur dioxide.

The volcano also caused an abundance of sulfur dioxide in the air, producing volcanic smog, or vog (vulcanic smog, volcanic smog).

Venice is a city in northern Italy. It has been known as the “Queen of the Adriatic”, “City of Bridges”, and “The City of Light”. The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy. Venice is world famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are connected by about 400 bridges. In the old centre, the canals serve the function of roads, and every form of transport is on water or on foot. You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly used for tourists, or weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by motorised waterbuses which ply regular routes along the major canals and between the city’s islands. The city has many private boats. The only gondolas still in common use by Venetians are the Traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal at certain points without bridges. Adapted from: http://www.wikipedia.com19
