English For Accounting Task 5

      Today i wanna share something that we must do & don't when we have the presentation. The first thing that we must do in the presentation is know the needs of your audience and match your contents to their needs. Do the research first and know your material. Think through what your will present before beginning the project. And then, when you have the presentation, you must use the normally body language  Which means that you need to use your body and your eyes to hold your audience’s attention. Use your hands to signal when making key points. Stand up straight, smile, make eye-contact and avoid moving around too much or the audience will be unfocused.

      The third thing that we have to know if we have the presentation is use your voice to catch the audience.It means to keep the audience interested, you need to make sure your voice is loud enough, so that everyone can hear you, but not so loud that you start shouting. The fourth is to spend time on the opening and closing. Even if the presentation is quite short it is important to give a nice clear opening (including a greeting and a brief introduction). At the end, don’t just say “That’s about it” but try to summaries or finish with a joke so that the audience doesn’t forget you as soon as you stop talking.

      Beside something that we must do in the presentation, we must pay attention to the something that do not use in your presentation. The example is do not read from notes for any extended length of time although it is quite acceptable to glance at your notes infrequently. Speak loudly and clearly. Sound confident. Do not mumble. If you made an error, correct it, and continue. No need to make excuses or apologize profusely. Don't race through your presentation and leave your audience, as well as yourself, feeling out of breath, so  pause a little bit and allow yourself and your audience a little time to reflect and think.

      As a resume i summarizes the points that we should do and don't when we have a presentation. Here is the list :

1. Allow plenty of time for preparation.
2. Answer the all-important question-words: why? who? where? when? how? and what?.
3. Structure your presentation into introduction, body, conclusion and questions.
4. Write notes based on keywords.
5. Rehearse your presentation several times and modify it as necessary.
6. Select the right equipment for the job.
7. Use your equipment effectively.
8. Make use of clear, powerful visual aids that do not overload your audience.
9. Use clear, simple language, avoiding jargon.
10. Use active verbs and concrete facts.
11. Explain the structure of your presentation at the beginning so that your listeners know what to expect.
12. Link each section of your presentation.
13. Signpost your presentation from beginning to end so that your listeners know where they are.
14. Overcome your nerves.
15. Establish audience rapport.
16. Be aware of your body language.
17. Understand cultural differences.

Ilmuwan Temukan Planet Berselimutkan Berlian

Tim gabungan ilmuwan Amerika dan Prancis menemukan sebuah planet di luar sistem tata surya dengan permukaan yang diselimuti grafit dan berlian.

Radius planet yang disebut ’55 Cancri e’ tersebut dua kali lebih besar dari Bumi dengan massa delapan kali lebih besar dan sepertiganya diperkirakan terdiri dari berlian.

Planet ini merupakan salah satu dari lima planet yang ditemukan mengitari ’55 Cancri’, sebuah bintang menyerupai matahari yang berjarak 40 tahun cahaya dari Bumi. Berada di rasi bintang Cancer, para ilmuwan mengatakan bahwa bintang tersebut dapat dilihat dengan mata telanjang.

Para astronom pertama kali melihat planet tersebut tahun lalu saat ia transit di bintang yang diorbitinya, yang memungkinkan mereka mengukur radius planet untuk pertama kalinya. Menggunakan informasi tersebut, sekaligus perkiraan terakhir mengenai massa planet, para peneliti menggunakan pemodelan komputer untuk berspekulasi mengenai komposisi kimia planet tersebut.

Riset sebelumnya menunjukkan bahwa bintang 55 Cancri memiliki kandungan karbon lebih banyak daripada oksigen, membuat tim gabungan AS-Perancis tersebut yakin bahwa sejumlah besar karbon dan silikon karbida, dengan sedikit air es, ada pada pembentukan planet tersebut.

Para astronom awalnya berasumsi bahwa komposisi bahan kimia planet berlian itu mirip dengan Bumi dan bahwa 55 Cancri e mengandung kuantitas air sangat panas yang substansial.

Namun menurut peneliti dari Universitas Yale, Nikku Madhusudhan, riset paling baru ini menunjukkan bahwa planet tersebut tidak mengandung air sama sekali dan sebagian besar terdiri dari karbon, seperti grafit dan berlian, dan juga besi, silikon karbida dan kemungkinan beberapa silikat.

Identifikasi planet yang juga disebut Super Bumi, yang kaya karbon, menunjukkan bahwa para ilmuwan tidak lagi dapat berasumsi bahwa semua planet berbatu yang jaraknya jauh memiliki senyawa kimia, interior, atmosfer atau sifat biologi yang serupa dengan Bumi, menurut Madhusudhan.

Dengan demikian, ada kemungkinan masih banyak planet bertahtakan batu permata di luar sana.

Kebersamaan In My Opinion....

teman-teman.. sedang apa? sibuk? saya pikir sih kalian sibuk ya..

gatau saya lagi pengen nulis banyak hal nih, mudah2an bisa menampung disini..

KEBERSAMAAN..

apa sih artinya? disaat seorang jatuh, yang lain ikut jatuh? apakah benar pernyataan saya itu? jika benar memang begitu adanya, berarti kalo misal teman kita ada yang mati, kita juga ikut mati? ngga juga kan?

lalu apa itu kebersamaan? di organisasi yang menempa saya dulu, KEBERSAMAAN ITU DIMANA YANG KUAT TIDAK MENINGGALKAN YANG LEMAH, DAN YANG LEMAH TIDAK MENYUSAHKAN YANG KUAT.. Tapi hal tersebut tidak bisa diaplikasikan disini kan? iya lah, masa yang udah mau lulus 4tahun harus nungguin beberapa orang yang mau lulus 7tahun? ngga juga kan? iya lah, jelas-jelas itu mah kebersamaannya orang pecinta alam -___-

terus apa dong? apakah cuma kata tanpa arti?

menurut saya, kebersamaan itu terlahir di tempat kita merasa susah, senang, terpuruk, hancur, bahagia bersama.. kita dulu seperti itu loh kawan, iya ngga?

nah coba kita pikirkan, kawan.
banyak hal diluar sana yang membuyarkan kebersamaan kita, banyak doktrin yang membuat kebersamaan kita hilang ditelan kedengkian, dan banyak monster-monster lainnya yang membuat kita terpecah belah..

saya tahu, semua orang punya keburukannya masing-masing, tapi bukankah dibalik keburukan itu juga banyak kebaikannya? apakah bijaksana ketika kita hanya mengingat keburukan seseorang itu saja sedangkan kebaikannya diabaikan?

come on, guys! kita lupakan masa lalu.. mengutip dari sebuah film Disney yang berjudul The Chaperone, "Confront it, be truthful, and let it go" memang sulit, tapi ayo kita lupakan semua yang pernah terjadi dulu!! tidak ada kata terlambat untuk sebuah perubahan, dan tidak akan ada pergerakan tanpa langkah pertama :)

Hello everyone, today i'm gonna posting about my new task for English lesson about the resume or summarize about my music choice..

    It's been a week since i heard this song. The song that coming from none than other my favorite K-Pop Artist. Yapp, It's TVXQ, or all of my fellow Korean friends always says Dong Bang Shin Ki  (동방신기).

As i heard that TVXQ will make a comeback with a new album in the end of the September. I'm really curious about their concept for the new album, so i wait everyday to listen the song for their new album.

  On 24th September 2012 the album is coming out, and as the teaser of the main song is published before, the song "Catch Me" is the main song of the album. For me Catch Me is a nice song. When i heard that song in the first time, i really like the intro. I was said in my heart that this song is gonna be hit. As i expect before, the song is so catchy, have a powerful dance on the Music Video and totally falls into the lyrics. I really love the lyrics because it's really touching and have a big meaning. 

   For who not understand Korean, it's so hard to know the meaning. But, i have an idea. I'm going to YouTube then i search the song with English subtitle.For make this article useful for everyone who wanna listen and know the lyrics, i give the link that combine both of the Music Video and the English subtitle for the song.

   Wow, i was so impressed with the song and the dance. But from all the aspect in this song, the most i like is the meaning of the lyrics. As a man, i really know the feeling that the artist sing in this song. It's really hard to accepted that we (as a man) always being lonely although we have someone that we loving so much. She never opened her heart for us, even for a little. So, it's make us wanna go and leaving out from this situation, but in the deep of our heart, we still waiting for her and hoping that her will catch us and say that she have the same feeling like us.

   I really appreciate this song because all of the aspect from the song is perfect. From the lyrics, the rhythm and the choreography are prepared with a good detail. If i can rating this song. It was 9 out of 10. Basically, it's a standards consume music in the K-Pop industry. The Energetic song combine with a powerful dance. It's seems like the K-Pop Boy Group nowadays such as BEAST, 2PM, MBLAQ, Super Junior, Infinite etc. But, i don't know, I really love this song since the first time i heard. It was repeated a hundred times in a day. Maybe i have a good moods when i heard this song. Haha....

   Anyway, there is a recap about the song from TVXQ called "Catch Me". For anyone who wanna know the detail about the album, u can go to this site. Or you can purchase and download the album here. I hope i will find another exciting music all around the world that can make my mood going higher and forget about the problem in my life.

Thank you for the reader who was red my article. Have a nice day everyone.
