Sadly, cases of students getting involved in brawls have been reported nationwide and recently reports of these brawls have increased in number, causing even more casualties. News about a student in Jakarta who died and two others who were injured in a clash between two neighboring high school is not something new. This is just one example of what has been happening to teens all over Indonesia and how violent these brawls have become. Whose fault is this?.

It is the parents' role to teach students morals and norms, while the school directs them to the acceptable norms and behaviors, besides educating them both socially and academically.Parents need to remind students that every action comes with its consequences, either good or bad.There is an argument that students cannot differentiate right or wrong without parents' and school's assistance.

Moreover, the society also has a strong influence on students.Their circle of friends highly influences them.If they belong to a violent circle, they will grow up into violent people.Peer pressure often forces these students into brawls.

In conclusion, adults should set a good example and make sure that students are on the right track.This will not only save them from themselves, but will also result in a brighter tomorrow.

Read the following text to answer questions number 6 to 10

Should Americans be forced to Public Transportation?

First, let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if we should we all abandon cars right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon them completely, nor is it asking if every American should do so. It is asking weather some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time, and I would say yes.

Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York there just isn’t room for any more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they need more people to take public transit or risk permanent traffic jam. One bus can safely hold 40 people so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’ worth of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t need to built.

There are a lot of people that can take with transit little inconvenience but simply don’t because they never have in the past. If residents in areas with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of their property taxes then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. QA number of universities already bundle a ‘U-Pass’ with their tuition feeds, forcing their students to take the bus. When given the change the majority of those students have voted to keep these programs.

A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued parking spaces in exchange for a discount on their rent would also be community car to several apartment tenants that arrange a schedule for the car, and this program gets many positive reviews.

So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as Americans whom are already forced to do so find that it works well for them.

What is the function of first paragraph?

TV

Is it important to know what your kids are watching? Of course yes. Television can expose things you have tried to protect them from, especially violence, pornography, consumerism, etc.

A study demonstrated that spending too much time on watching TV during the day or bedtime often causes bedtime disruption, stress, and short of sleep duration.

Another research found that there is a significant relationship between the amount of time spent for watching television during adolescence and early adulthood, and the possibility of being aggressive.

Meanwhile, many studies have identified a relationship between kids who watch TV a lot and being inactive and overweight.

Considering some facts mentioned above, protect your children with the following tips:

1. Limit television viewing to 1 – 2 hours each day

2. Do not allow your children to have a TV set in their bedrooms

3. Review the rating of TV shows that your children watch

4. Watch television with your children and discuss what is happening in the show.

Landslides in Indonesia

A leading geologist has explained in the media that the government should pay attention and inform villagers of the dangers of building homes on mountain slopes. The government should also consider geological and topographical conditions in the relevant areas.

Indeed the government takes its duties lightly where village conditions are concerned. The inhabitants of villages should be informed regularly that cutting trees in and around a village should be prohibited.

Having travelled extensively in Sumatra, Sulawesi, Kalimantan and throughout Java, I have witnessed that in and around many villages on mountain slopes no trees are visible as these were cut down a long time ago to be used as cooking fuel besides being used to construct homes.

No reforestation has ever taken place and this is due to the government’s lack of education of villagers about this important issue. Geological and topographical conditions and the importance of reforestation are paramount.

The government also fails to inform and teach these villagers about the danger of landslides.

These mountain slopes where no tree is standing are killing zones, especially in the rainy season, and natural disasters are bound to happen.

It is not too late to inform villagers that reforestation is a must and that studying geological and topographical conditions in the area before constructing a home is extremely important. Ignorant villagers cannot be blamed.

With the letter, the writer explicitly recommends that the government....

Students’ cheating is one of the biggest problems faced by teachers nowadays. Despite the fact that teachers advise their students not to do dishonest acts during test, some students still do cheating. There are many kinds of cheating that students do during the test or examination, such as looking other students’ work, put some notes under their clothes, write notes or formulas on their desks make hand signals or go to rest rooms to get the answers from their friends.

In my view, students who do cheating are committing a crime. It is a sort of taking something illegally. This crime causes negative results to the students. Students who always cheat deteriorate their mental capacity. Cheating acts also create dependence. They weaken their self confidence. Instead of preparing for the coming test, they are busy to organize notes on a piece of paper. If this awful habit contributes, the students will lose their opportunity to develop their intellectual and mind.

Therefore, school should consider cheating as a very serious problem. School board and administration should go hand to overcome this matter. Honestly must be put in school’s vision. Harsh punishment must be applied to students who commit this crime
