                                                    Independence reading # 8                   

  The author said in (you can win ) book  that "by not opposing something you know is wrong, you are actually supporting it "page 89. In fact, I was interested when I read that sentences because it reminded me of my father advise said that when some thing wrong happen, you must do something towards it and I definitely mean by that the gradual means such as physical action, giving advice, and if that all was impossible . then the last mean is heart hate which means that you can just change the wrong thing by hating it.
Finally this quote really encouraged me to say that something wrong is not true even if people hate that but not in all situation, because the general rule has exceptions.

In fact,today I read about pride of performance which means that people often behave according to their attitude and be proud of it . and also I read about the success that everyone want to achieve in this life, but there is many obstacles he may face . and one of that is that he still does not want uncover the secret he has inside o him . so in this case this person has to persist to achieve the success he dream of .

My question now is  what the difference between the persistence and resistance ?

Independent Reading #6

Hi every one  

                                                      The book" you can win"

Today I read a lot about success in the life and how the success is measured and how we can overcome the obstacles in our life . so I also read some stories which are considered as an example of "every successful story comes with failures but everyone observe the happy end only   " however, the author talk about many famous characters in the world such as Lee De Forest ,COLONEL SANDERS, and Abraham Lincoln. and the question now is which one of the persons above who failed a lot in his life and then he become one of the U.S presidents afterwards ?

Thanks
a lot

Independent Reading #5

Hi. Everyone

 In fact , I felt some sort of powerful when I read the book (you can win) yesterday , because before that I had latterly been disappointed for many reasons , it might be either due to the low score that I had gotten last tofel exam ,or the stress for  preparing  the certification in IECP . However , the specific section of the text that caused me this power and hope feelings is this " You may be disappointed if you fail ,but you will be doomed if you don't try " SHIV KHERA borrows Beverley Sills" s words .


Thanks

Independent Reading #4


Hi ,Everyone

Today I actually read a lot about ignorance as a way to the tragedy and poverty in our life. Secondly, I read a lot about the commonsense as a way to be a successful person .From my understanding.  The first one briefly is very easy for the foolish people because they are used to do that all  the time ,so that they are always not happy with it .On other hand , the educated people who does not have commonsense are worthless, because this is not necessarily resulted from education and it comes from positive attatude .Anyways, the plenty of commonsense is called wisdom .

BEST REGARDS

   I really liked Steven muller as  a character  when he said "Universities are turning out highly skilled barbarians  because we don't provide a framework of values to young people , who more and more are searching for it" . because he confirmed my belief regarding to the education in all fields  as well as  .
it is very true  idea because the true education is training of both the head and heart .
and not only the head with knowledge but without morals .

Independent reading (2)

  In fact ,there are many quotes that are very interesting in " you can win" book ,but the only one has impressed me was this one " Dealing with people is a lot like digging for gold :when you go digging for an ounce of gold ,you have to move tons of dirt. but when you go digging, you don't go looking for the dirt , you go looking for the gold" (Andrew Carnegie ) . So I think this quote has very important message which means that the person should find what the good things the people have not the  bad things in order to having a positive attitude in our life . the person should not turns around for the people faults  because that is like an everlasting issue .

You can win book (independent reading)

Hi, Everyone

   I was actually surprised when I was reading 'you can win ' book because he gave me some important information about attitude which can be the easiest way to the success . it was interesting when I knew the attitude of someone comes naturally from inside body , so all we need to do is changing our feelings and emotions towards something or someone ,so that we can love it and be more professional in our life . However I would  strongly recommend  all my classmates to read this book because they will differently change your mind towards many things in this life .

sincerely

Note : the book is so simple to read and more beneficial for English learners.

The field trip to the kindergarten




The field trip to the kindergarten


   I actually expected only one thing before I went to this trip field  which is actually  
about the children's ages . unlike my country system I expected  there that their ages would starts from 3 to 4 years old, but they were apparently about 5 years old or more , as well as, there were kids whose ages between 8 to 10 years old playing all together. and that could be dangerous for the little ones. However , I would recommend that student could bring some presents or toys with them for the children for the next trip in the future because that will strengthen the bond between them .  At the end I was very     when I saw these kids because they basically reminded me of my kids too

In the ( n p r) article "multitasking in the car :just like drunken driving (2008),the author Jon Hamilton demonstrates the idea of safe driving by explaining that the driving requires a huge amount of brain power and visual information as the scientists have found the talking on the phone not to mention the hands-free device distracts the drivers. after that he explained some focusing driving required examples such as finding yourself in somewhere without remembering much about the trip and this what so called automaticity phenomenon as well as the author brought a professional pianist as a sample for ( pushing the brain study) and the studies shown that the brain struggles with paying attention to sights and sound at same time when the brain starts working on a visual task and its auditory parts show decreased activity. however.at the end the author has been indicated to the study in 2006 by the national highway traffic safety administration that found the most common distruction for drivers was use of cell phone .
