Language Arts Assignment

Today, i will be blogging about a news article from the News Straits Times Paper. The article's name is 'Handcuffed Singaporean flees from custody in Malaysia'.

This news article is a plot-driven story. A plot-driven story is a story which the intricacies of the plot are the most important aspects of the story. A plot-driven story makes the reader wants to read more not because they are fascinated by the characters but because they want to find out what happen next. The most well known plot-driven stories are mysteries especially murder mysteries. The plot creates the mystery so the plot is the focus of the story.

As for the news article, it is a plot-driven story because it makes the reader wants to read more to know more about the situation. The readers want to know more on what happened to the Singaporean man.They want to know his whereabouts and what methods are implemented to capture him. The readers will probably be reading the newspapers for the next few days just to know what happened to him.

In my opinion, i think that we should take preventive measures to guard ourselves against this dangerous criminal. He will not hesitate to kill us if he thinks we are a threat to him. Besides that, i also think that the police should dispatch more men to guard prisoners. This would prevent future prisoners from escaping.

Moreover, i think that the government should impose stricter rules against drug trafficking. This will deter people from trying to traffic drugs in the future. Last but not least, i would like to urge each and everyone of you not to commit any offences.

beauty of mathematics

Absolutely amazing!   Beauty of Mathematics !!!!!!!  1 x 8 + 1 = 9  12 x 8 + 2 = 98  123 x 8 + 3 = 987  1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876  12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765  123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654  1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543  12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432  123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321  1 x 9 + 2 = 11  12 x 9 + 3 = 111  123 x 9 + 4 = 1111  1234 x 9 + 5 = 11111  12345 x 9 + 6 = 111111  123456 x 9 + 7 = 1111111  1234567 x 9 + 8 = 11111111  12345678 x 9 + 9 = 111111111  123456789 x 9 +10= 1111111111  9 x 9 + 7 = 88  98 x 9 + 6 = 888  987 x 9 + 5 = 8888  9876 x 9 + 4 = 88888  98765 x 9 + 3 = 888888  987654 x 9 + 2 = 8888888  9876543 x 9 + 1 = 88888888  98765432 x 9 + 0 = 888888888  Brilliant, isn't it?  And look at this symmetry:  1 x 1 = 1  11 x 11 = 121  111 x 111 = 12321  1111 x 1111 = 1234321  11111 x 11111 = 123454321  111111 x 111111 = 12345654321  1111111 x 1111111 = 1234567654321  11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321  111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321      Now, take a look at this...  101%  >From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:  What Equals 100%?  What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?  Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?  We have all been in situations where someone wants you to  GIVE OVER 100%.  How about ACHIEVING 101%?  What equals 100% in life?  Here's a little mathematical formula that might help  answer these questions:  If:  A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z  Is represented as:  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.  If:  H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K  8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%  And:  K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E  11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%  But:  A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E  1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%  THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:  L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D  12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%  Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:  While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will  get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!  It's up to you if you share this with your friends & loved ones just  the way I did..  Have a nice day & God bless!!
