May Mother Be…

May mother be felt like a love garden
My mother feels me just like fragile flowers

May mother be just like a huge sky
My mother keeps me a star in the sky

May mother be just like a love stove
My mother feels me just innocent smoke

May mother be just like a imaginary picture
My mother feels me a coloured picture

I might be cloud to my mother
My mother feels me just like a rain drop! !

Do you know who I am?

15 04 2008

It was the final examination for an introductory Biology course at the local university. Like many such freshman courses, it was designed to weed out new students, having over 500 students in the class!

The examination was two hours long, and exam booklets were provided. The professor was very strict and told the class that any exam that was not on his desk in exactly two hours would not be accepted and the student would fail. Half of an hour into the exam, a student came rushing in and asked the professor for an exam booklet.

“You’re not going to have time to finish this,” the professor stated sarcastically as he handed the student a booklet.

“Yes I will,” replied the student. He then took a seat and began writing. After two hours, the professor called for the exams, and the students filed up and handed them in. All except the late student, who continued writing. An hour later, the last student came up to the professor who was sitting at his desk preparing for his next class. He attempted to put his exam on the stack of exam booklets already there.

“No you don’t, I’m not going to accept that. It’s late.”

The student looked incredulous and angry.

“Do you know who I am?”

“No, as a matter of fact I don’t,” replied the professor with an air of sarcasm in his voice.

“Do you know who I am?” the student asked again in a louder voice.

“No, and I don’t care.” replied the professor with an air of superiority.

“Good,” replied the student, who quickly lifted the stack of completed exams, stuffed his in the middle, and walked out of the room.





Peraturan Debate Bahasa Inggris

13 04 2008

Motion :

Topik yang diperdebatkan (Tentu sudah pada tahu…)

Parameter :

Limitation of the argument, yaitu batasan yg harus diberikan oleh team positif agar pembicaraan tidak panjang lebar dan tidak sesuai dengan Motion.

Parameter penting sekali karena dalam perdebatan akan muncul ide-ide baru yang nantinya tidak akan bertemu pada satu titik.Maka gunanya parameter untuk membatasi isi daripada pembicaraan.

Parameter juga bisa digunakan sebagai penjebak apabila team lawan berargumen yg keluar dari parameter anda.

Jika Affirmative Team tidak memberikan parameter maka haknya bisa diambil oleh Negatif Team dan itu sangat berbahaya, karena jalur pembicaraan dipegang oleh team lawan.

Team Split :

Bagian-bagian yang akan di bicarakan oleh masing-masing speaker.

Misalnya : society point of view,Law point of view,Morality point of view,Health pof dll.

Themeline :

Garis besar/inti dari motion yg diambil dari keseluruhan argument

Matter :

Materi yg dismpaikan harus sesuai dan berhubungan dengan motion(jgn keluar jalur)

Manner :

Cara penyampaian argument: sopan,tegas,meyakinkan,suara jgn sampai lembek karena berpengaruh pd kekuatan argument anda,jg BODY LANGUAGE jg sangat penting(jgn tegang seprti patung).

(bisa dengan alittle bit emotion,tapi jangan marah2)

Method :

Metode penyampaian dari 1st speaker-3rd speaker dan pembagian tugas harus jelas.

Ketiga unsur ini mempengaruhi margin dalam penjurian.

Timer :

Ini juga sangat penting waktu semakin panjang makin bagus.

Pengalaman saya : waktu bicara tidak usah terburu2 jika apa yg disampaikan tidak banyak, cobalah mengulur waktu dengan pura2 berpikir(acting),jadi waktu kita yg lama sebelum ketukan harus berhenti akan menambah margin juga dalam penilaian.

Reply Speech:

Kesimpulan dari ketiga argument yg menguatkan. Bisa di bawakan oleh 1st atau 2nd speaker(pembicara ketiga tidak boleh memberikan Reply Spech didlm Australian debate rules.

Perlu diingat dlm penyampaian reply spech jangan sampai membuka kasus/ ide baru.Hanya sebuah penegasan dari argument team saja.

Tugas2 Team Affirmatif

1st speaker: (1st speaker mendapat tugas paling banyak dan jangan ada yg tertinggal)

  1. Introducing team

  2. Giving the motion,parameter,themeline and team split.

  3. argument

Contoh:

Greetings

Good morning/afternoon,ladies and gentleman the member of this house..atau..Madam,Mr.speaker sir the member of this house.

Thankyou for the apportunity that given to me.We are from SMK N 1 Saptosari Wonosari.Lets me to introduce our team.

Me as the 1st speakr,my name is…, Our 2nd speaker is…,and our 3rd speaker is…

Next i would like to give our motion today,our motion today is Thbt our govermnt should take a firm action upon illegal miner.

From that motion we will give our themeline: That we as the affirmatif team absolutly agree that the gvrment must take a firm action to the illegal miner for the goodness of our country.

Then our parameter today is that we just talk about the gold illegal miner in our country(dalam hal ini bs anda ganti dgn pertambangan yg lain,misal: minyak etc.)

(Jadi jika lawan anda sampai bicara soal minyak padahal team anda memberikan pembatasan hanya pada penambangan emas,berarti satu kelemahan dari lawan bisa anda jadikan senjata.Anda bisa langsung nembak bahwa apa yg merka bicarakan lari dari parameter yg anda buat sbg team+)

well,continue to our team split,

Me as the 1fst speaker would like to talk about the effect for Economic point of view,our 2nd speaker would like to talk about the Law pov and the 3rd speaker wldlike to give more proof and summery of our argument. (bisa diganti P.o.v.yg lain, mis: society dll)

And for the reply speech(kesimpulan) will be give by (1st or 2nd )speaker.

Next ladies and gentleman,i would like to give mour argument..(…)silahkan berargument sesuai point of view anda.

Jangan lupa untuk memberikan salam penutup dan ucapan terimakasih (untuk semua pembicara)

2nd speaker:

Tugas:

  1. Rebutle the 1st speaker of Neg Team.

  2. Argument

3rd speaker:

  1. Rebutle the 2nd speaker of Neg team

  2. Memberikan penguatan atas argumen pembicara1 dan 2

  3. Memberikan contoh n bukti yg kuat untuk keseluruhan argument of the team.

Khusus untuk 3rd speaker lebih baik yg bnr2 pandai brbicara dan lebih galak.Karena 3rd spkr adalah ujung tombak dari team anda.jadi 3rd speaker adlh hrs yg pling kuat dlm berargument.

Tugas Untuk Negatif team:

Pada dasarnya sama hanya tidak perlu membuat parameter karena team afirmatif telah menentukan sendiri

Sebagai negatif harus jeli terhadap tugas2 1st speaker of +. Ingat: jika tdk ada parameter anda bisa merebut point itu.

katakan saja mis:

1st speaker of Neg: well because the 1st speaker of affrmtf team didnt give us the parameter,so here i wouldlike to give our parameter today…bla..bla..

Jadi mau tdk mau mereka harus ikut jalur anda.(sesuatu yg sepele dan sangat menjatuhkan posisi lawan krn bisa saja mrk tdk kepikiran tentang batasan pembicaraan yg anda buat, jadi mereka bisa bingung sendiri mengawali argument mereka.)

Seandainya mereka nekat lari tanpa peduli parameter anda,maka itu suatu kesalahan yg besar,berarti perdebatan tdk ada artinya alias cuma bicara sendiri2 dan anda bisa langsung menegurnya.

Jelasnya :

1st speaker: Rebutle of the 1st speaker afrmtf

Pembagian tugas sama sprti diatas

Argument

2nd : rebutle of the2nd spkr of afrmtf

Argument

3rd :rebutle of 3rd speaker of + team

proofing n summery(jgn buat kasus baru)

—————-

Demikian kurang lebihnya untuk Australian debate rules.Ada jg untuk Australasia debate rules yaitu sama dgn diatas hanya saja pd saat masing2 pembicara berargumen, maka pembicara dr tean lawan bisa mendebat secara langsung(debat Kusir).

Misalnya ditengah anda sedang bera argument maka salah satu atau dua..atau bahkan ketiganya dari team lawan akan berdiri sambil mengangkat tangan dan berteriak P.o.i (point of interuption)lalu menyampaikan rebutlenya untuk anda.

Namun cara ini jarang dipakai,hanya kemarin pernah ada di EDC smu-smk seDIY di AKPRIND univ.
