giving such a good education to young people. They will lead to this country in the future. So, we
need to teach, educate, give them a sense of nationalism, belonging, good character, religious
values, honesty and hardworking mental of course.
• Linda : I really agree with you. Corruption, however, take people right. It is such an injustice thing.
We must support the anti-corruption program and KPK to eliminate corruption practices.

Make a group of four. Create a poster containing your groups’
opinion about the topic. Each group chooses one of these topics.
1. Bullying at School
2. Illegal Logging
3. Cell Phones Using
4. Corruptors in Indonesia
5. Watching Television Habit
6. Physical Punishment at School
7. Pollution
Smoking in a Public Area
In my opinion, Smoking should be
banned in public places. Most
people believe that someone who
is not in the smoking area of the
public place will not be affected
by the smoke, but smoke is able
to spread in a room and affect the
people around. Smoking causes a
lot of problems not only for the
smoker, but for the people
around.
