RIS Preparation

This test is extremely difficult. I do not even think to mention the score on the blog because it is too low. I took about 40 minutes to complete this test. I think I need improve on grabbing the main point out of the passage. I hope I can do it better during this preparation.

I think the students should be assigned to school based on grades and teacher recommendations because the teacher was the people who understand the students the most. The teachers must know what is going to work best for their students certainly, so I think the teachers should be the one who chose the school. If possible the teacher could ask the students for some opinion about the school, so the teacher could adjust the school that is suitable for certain student. This way was fair for students and teachers, too. Actually, assigned the students by where they live was fair as well but that may not work for some of the students because if the teachers assigned the school which was not quit suitable, the student would have a hard time adjusting themselves to the school.

I have been punished for my friends. One of my friends kicked the ball and it hilted the window, so the window broke down in to pieces. Unfortunately, my teacher understood that it was me that destroyed the window. Even though it was not my fault but I had to let the teacher understood like that because to accuse on my friends was very bad habit. I felt sad certainly but I willing to this for my friend though it was not make anything better. I think Ji-li would feel as bad as me. But I think she is willing to do.

I definitely agree with this statement because the methods that some presidents have been used were not working at all. From the past, I never saw the president that could change Thailand in a better way. The major problem that kept Thailand from developing is politics. The politicians in Thailand always have different opinion, so they started to have quarrels. Therefore, I think the fourolds is a great and appropriate way for Thailand to employ in order to develop the country. I think step by step is not a very good way to use in Thailand but to destroyed everything and start over again is a much better way to develop Thailand.

There are auspicious, superstition, spirit money and to respect the teachers. These can hold some of the people back, certainly, but not for the students because the students already been brainwashed by Chairman Mao. Moreover, Chairman Mao is considered to be the best of kindness, so he is better than anybody and anything. That means the students are his people and soldiers that ready to fight with everything that trying to disagree with Mao’s ideas. Mao believes that the fourolds which are old ideas, old culture, old customs, and old habits are the major reasons that hold the country back.

It means like Communist Party and Chairman Mao is better than anything in the world, it’s even better than parents, heaven and earth. It seems like they are wonderful, awesome, and kind. I can see it clearly that the relationship between Chinese people and political leaders are very close. They love each other no matter what would happen. But I think the most important thing is that there is something which is good but there is something which is always better. It is definitely different from the relationship between me and political leaders of Thailand. I do interesting in them but not as crazy as Chinese people. And I think the situation that happened in China would never happen in Thailand because there were many things that made both countries different such as people and cultures.

Next day, the two painters were working on the roof. Lucas watched them with envy because he thought that this was a cool thing to do. One day, the two of the painters were painting as usual. Lucas’ father was at work and Lucas’ mother was gone off somewhere with his twins brother and Genevieve. That meant it was a very good chance for Lucas. Then Lucas climbed up the ladder to sit at the top of the roof like the two painters did. The painters said, “We need to go somewhere near here and we will be back. And keep away from the paint.” When the painters go away, Lucas climbed the top of the roof but when he was midway up, his classmate which was his friends called him. Then Lucas asked his friend to came up. Soon, Lucas’ mother came back and saw them. Certainly, Lucas’ mother shouted at them and forced them to come down.
