Westernazation : A Threat to Our Culture
Dramatic cultural change has happened before our eyes; the main cause seems to be the
uncontrolled westermazation.
Low understanding toward negative effects of Westernazation has made people adopt the western
culture and values unintentionally. When the country has become poorer and the same time people
see the fact that western people seem to be wealthier, they start to think that western people are
better than those in other countries. People started to admire the western culture without realizing
that not all from the west is good, especially the culture in the social and individuali life. We may
adopt the west professionalism and their hardwork, but we should not adopt the negative culture
and values.
Young generation has likely lost national identity. The youngsters do not have the pride to people
to uphold their nationss as Eastern people. On the other hand, they have lost the elders who can
become good models to follow.
The uncontrolled flow of information makes the westernization process run very smoothly,
internet, VCDs call phones, and other media transform effectively the Indonesian culture to
western culture. We have seen and herad that many senior high school students have accessed to
pornographic pictures with of theirs cell phones. This is really a threat to the morals of this country.
 When we have realized the danger of wsternazation in culture and idea, We should take some real
actions, The government should control TV programs, Internet access, and systematically
campaign to strengthen the countrys character. All citizens should certainly help the government
to control the precess of westernization.

A.C.O.D , an acronym for Adult Children of Divorce, could easily be played for heavy drama.
Carter(Adam Scott) is in many ways a model A.C.O.D., heroically torelant of his warring parents Hugh
(Richard Jenkins) and Melissa (Catherine OHara), wry and discanted but still open enough to try to love
other people.
That openness is a hard-won victory. His parents are jerks, and the tricky thing about them is that
theyre charismatic jersk, selfish and self-indulgent baby booomers whose mantra is always the heart
wants. They are monsters, basically, and they are believable monsters, and first-time director Stu
Zicherman never makes them more outlandish than they should be to get broader or bigger laughs. When
Melissa tells her younger son Trey(Clark Duke), Darling, you were a mistake, it takes a secod or two
to process the fact that she is actually telling him this in a attempt to be root of the mystery of some human
behavior.
The film starts off rather badly with a flashback to Carters ninth birthday party and some
Arrested Development aping narration, but it soon abandons this conceit and finds a specific tone of its
own. A.C.O.D. is sharp, dark-ish character comedy, settling for dry tolerance in its point of view that is
very appealing and even admirable.

33. the text is about....

A. a review of A.C.O.D movie
B. an amusement of a drama
C. a description of a selfish parets
D. an experience of a tolerant boy
E. a presentation of a familys problem

34. the writer critized the film that it.

A. contains of darkish charater comedy
B. makes shocked for human behavior
C. finds its specific tone
D. is very appealing and admirable
E. is not quite good with a flashback
35. the main character discussed in the text is.
A. trey
B. Hugh
C. Melissa
D. Clark Dude
E. Carter

Anne Frank: The Diary of a young Girl is a very inspiration and moving journal that should be read by
everyone, especially students. Not only will many relate to it, but it valuable for both the mind and the
heart. Touching and poignant, the story reveals the history of World War II, unforgettable people, and
lessons that will stay in your heart forever.
While reading Anne Frank, I learned lots about what really happened during World War II. It was
an unimaginable horror: millions of innocent people dying at the hands of biased obsession. Reading this
really took me back to 1944 and put me right there in the secret annex with its residents, holding my
breath as Nazi troops passed by on the streets below.
The Wisdom I gained will remain with me forever. Now I see the Holocaust as something more
than tragedy we learn about in school: it seems more real, more horrific, and somehow bigger and worse
than I had imagined.
Each character clearly has its own personality, ranging from extremely argumentative to
unbelievably gregarious, and each adds a different flavor to the journey. I truly felt connected to these
eight hiding away, as if I had known them forever. Sometimes, it was as if anne and I were best friends,
sitting there and talking. Other times I could feel Mrs. Van Daans singing comments.
No one can read The Diary of Anne Frank and not take away a very valuable lesson. Focusing on
the problems of growing up, dealing with tough, and the never ending power of hope, the concepts really
strengthened my morals and virtues. Throughout the book, young people will be able to relate to Annes
quarrels with her sister and parents, and everyone understands how hard it is to face your biggest fears.
Anne will teach us all something to save forever. I know she taught me.
After reading this treasured book, I felt humbled, more knowledgeable and genuinely touched.

perceived it in many different ways. The proponents of globlization believe that one of the most positive
effects of globalization is its impact on trade. With an increase in free trade, the prosperity and wealth of
nations as well as their interdependence on one another has increased. On acultural front, globalization has
lead to what is referred to as homogenization. As a result, traditional diversityis reduced, and a new
multicultural identity is born . further, there has been a standardization of not only cultural identity bit also
cultural like and dislikes, with entertainment and pop culture being freely accessible to anyone, anywhere.
While globalization has helped the economies of developing countries by increasing competitions and
production in worldwide markets, it has, unfortunately, had a negative effect not only on the environment
but also on prices and deman, especially for oil. Economically, critics argue that while globalization does
encourage free trade, it negatively effects national markets. Also, the expalitation of cheaper foreign labor
has been widely criticized.

ecosystems. The greatest contributors to tonix pollution are herbicides, pesticides and industrial
compounds. The next kind is organic substance. Organic pollutin occurs when an excess of organc
matter, such as manure or sewage, enters the water. When organic matter increases in pond, the
number of decomposers will increase. There is also the so-called thermal pollution. Thermal pollution
can occur when water is used as a coolant near a power or industrial plant and then is returned to the
