[Week I] Topic sentences: Plagiarism in Malaysia, Indonesia and other countries.

Plagiarism is happening in many countries especially in Indonesia and Malaysia, other countries may do so but people have not realized about that. This paper will define about plagiarism and the real examples and experience from the writer.

In general, plagiarism is defined as taking other people works and without changing the content and make it become his or her work. The word "work" here can be lyrics from songs, thesis or even group project,etc.

In my own experience, I have ever had a team for doing assignment. when we have done all of the works one of my friend in my team let another group to see our work because the person did not understand how to do the assignment so he need an example by seeing our work. When the due dat, we collected our work and then we realized that our assignment were similar to that team that we showed them for the example. It was not a problem for us because we had showed our assignment to the lecture before the due date asked him to check our work. Then we did not know what had happen to that group cheated our assignment.

Beside my own experience, there are real examples come from Indonesia and Malaysia where one of the male singers from Malaysia copying our singer lyric. In that song, Malaysian singer just changed the word "Indonesia" to "Malaysia" where other words are the same. This case cause our singer become upset then he created a new song to make Malaysia become silly although the Malaysia singer have said sorry to him.

Unfortunately from the case above, Indonesia also did some plagiarism. In drama TV tahat broadcasted in Indonesia many producers took other countries drama idea like Taiwan, Japan and Korea movies where Indonesia producers just translate the language into Indonesia Language without changing the story. This case really makes the film industries in Indonesia become minim of ideas.

In conclusion plagiarism is really against the law because copying other works or ideas is not good. Indonesia, Malaysia and other countries should consider about this word "Plagiarism" because by doing this can cause the country become silly to the other countries.

practical and comfortable life to the users through the
invention of printing press and the internet for instance.
2. On the Contrary, the term 'global village' is introduced
to the world as the automation continues to progress and
indirectly isolates the users socially.

Conclusion:

[Week I] My paragrah: Acid Rain

There are two types of acid rain which include the wet acid rain and the dry acid rain. The wet acid rain can be found in the form of snow, rain, dew, and fog. In the other hand the dry acid rain can be found in the form of gases or dust. Acid rain contains some chemical substances such as carbon oxides, carbon dioxides, nitro oxides, and sulfur dioxides. These substances are hazardous; therefore, acid rain has some bad effects to the environment. First of all, acid rain effects the water population, especially fish. Acid rain pollutes the water by increasing the level of acidity and reducing the amount of oxygen in the water. As a result, it cuts off the water population, because fish can only get along in a certain level of acidity and acid rain prevents the fish from doing respiration. Secondly, acid rain damaged the outer coating of plants which protects the inner parts of the plants. When the outer parts of the plants were damaged, the acid will flow into the plants. This acid will prevent the plant to photosynthesize which brings the plant to death. Last but not least, it also damaged the non-living things. Acid rain decays buildings and statues which might be material for the nation. In conclusion, acid rain has bad influences to the environment which are destroying fully or partially the living things and the non-living things.
