Language Reversals

2011-10-03T09:15:00.000-07:00

There are examples of efforts to revive a language:

In Israel, Hebrew – the language of rituals and religious ceremonies—was chosen to be the national language. So, the government make all necessary arrangement to teach and make the people use it.
In Wales, schools teach subjects in Welsh as well as English to minimize the use of English by young people.

Essay Outlining

2011-07-26T08:35:00.000-07:00

Because an essay is longer and more complex than a paragraph, it is even more important to organize your thoughts and to plan your essay before you begin to write. The best way to do this is to make an outline.

The principles and techniques that you have already learned for paragraph outlining can be applied to essay. You may be required during the course of your academic writing career to produce a formal outline. The number/letter system for a formal outline is illustrated in the model outline below.

Rosetta Stone V3 French Level 1-3 Companion VERSION

2011-07-02T19:42:00.000-07:00

Rosetta Stone V3: French Level 1-3 Set with Audio Companion [OLD VERSION]

The software is intuitive, the approach is intelligent. You don't have that native speaker standing in front of you scowling because you're butchering the music of their language in the early going, but you do have the software giving feedback and similarly identifying where you might require a little more attention. The program constructs in the user a solid base of simple vocabulary, establishing a basic understanding of the mechanics of the language on which additional vocabulary and structure may be built. With regard to the interface, the absence of a tutorial (as far as I saw, though I didn't look hard because it was so easy just to start using) was a bit surprising, though it took a very small amount of time to get into the swing of things.

The earliest exercises range from matching phrases to their appropriate pictures to out-loud (through a microphone) pronunciation tests to proper spelling and grammar training. The pronunciation recognization ability of the software is pretty sharp -- if you're off, it will tell you, but the program allows the user to improve before moving on to the next test.

Best of all, this is fun. I did enjoy the lessons (I have yet to complete all three levels), and continue to enjoy the process. You always feel like you're making progress, you always have visual cues in regards to where you stand in the process, and it almost becomes a game to try and move through it.

Rosetta Stone V3: French Level 1-3 Set with Audio Companion [OLD VERSION] Product Features:
* Rosetta Stone teaches you a new language naturally, by getting you to think, live and breathe the language
* Innovative solutions get you speaking new words, right from the start
* Rosetta Stone moves forward only when you're ready--you drive the pace, you set the schedule
* With Rosetta Stone, you'll discover a foundation of key vocabulary that you'll use to build into a whole new language
* Audio Companion lets you take the Rosetta Stone experience anywhere: in the car, at the gym, or on-the-go

4.0 out of 5 stars - Quite amazing, August 28, 2008 By Patrick Oden (Pasadena, CA United States)
While it should be a standard to wait a long while before reviewing there are aspects that become more quickly apparent both for comparison and understanding.

My previous French language experience came from two years of high school classes about sixteen years ago. I've had a few other language classes since then, establishing me if not as a thorough polyglot at least as a someone well versed in language training from a variety of different teaching styles, approaches, and contexts.

Rosetta Stone Spanish Demo Reviews

Rosetta Stone V2: Spanish (Latin America) Level 1-2 [OLD VERSION]

Rosetta Stone Spanish Level I & II opens up a new world to you by teaching you how to communicate with a new culture! With thsi set of powerful educational tools, you'll develop your language skills & begin communicating with people throughout the Americas! Reviews and testing features help identify weak points and work harder on them Comes with illustrated User's Guides and Curriculum Text books Ages 6 & up.

I have read most all of these reviews and even responded to one of them, and I am very disappointed. I am not a teacher or professor or over educated. I am a normal person attempting to learn a second language. I have been using it through AKO (Army knowledge Online) so I don't have to deal with the price.

Everyone that is complaining about learning perfect grammar through the software is looking at this all wrong. This program helps you learn Spanish the same way you learned English. I am sure when you were one year old you were not searching for correct grammar, and I am also sure you parents talked to you in complete sentences. The program does the same thing. You learn by listening to the words and phrases and using you brain to see what is going on in the picture. Then associate the sounds you head with the pictures. I highly recommend this software.

Once again as far as the Grammar I read about 20 negative reviews citing no verb conjugation or grammar help. I am first to admit that I have not fully mastered all of the rules of English grammar, but I have been able to communicate effectively my whole life. And by the looks of some of your reviews a lot of you have not obtained perfect English grammar either.

Rosetta Stone Spanish Demo Reviews Product Features:
* This powerful 2-CD set of learning tools adapts to your personal needs and imparts a strong foundation in a new language
* With this award-winning method used by NASA and the Peace Corps, you'll learn the way children do -- by associating words and phrases with the world around you
* Participate in over 200 lessons where you'll interact with fluent Spanish speakers to build speaking & vocabulary skills
* Get a full tutorial in speaking and syntax skills
* Graphical speech recognition displays your voiceprint and compares it to native speakers to help improve pronunciation

5.0 out of 5 stars - I needed the Rosetta Stone in high school!, January 10, 2004 By A Customer
This is an amazing product! I have to preface my comments by stating my biases-I think the best way to learn a language is through immersion lessons in that country (this is how I learned Czech). If that's not possible, then the next best way is with intensive lessons with a great teacher (I don't have a Spanish tutor yet, but I'm going to get one). But for those of us who want to study Spanish on our own every day (I do one lesson a day, which takes me about two hours), the Rosetta Stone is awesome. I've never used any other language software, so I don't know if there are other great programs on the market that are this good, but I doubt it.

Why is this product so awesome? It's intuitive, fun... Read more

Learn QuickBooks Pro Premier Download Tutorial Review

2011-06-23T00:38:00.000-07:00

QuickBooks Premier Industry Editions 2011 [Download]

This was an upgrade from the 2008 Premier Industry Edition and, in both, I am using the Professional Services edition. The increased ability to see a customer's information is excellent. Instead of having to toggle back and forth between views when doing payments, the information I need is now included in a side bar view. It's saving me some time. The reports are also easier to use. Note: I can't compare this to other accounting solutions. I've only used QuickBooks. Going from the 2008 to the 2011 version, I can say that this upgrade really is an upgrade.

Easily organize your business finances all in one place, and provide you with faster access to the data you need, when you need it. Save time creating invoices and tracking payments. Stay on top of your business with reports, forecasting and planning tools designed especially for your industry.

Fluenz Version F2: Spanish 1+2+3 with supplemental Audio CDs and Podcasts

I purchased Rosetta Stone in Jan 2007 and fooled around with it a little, but soon realized that learning how to say "the boy is under the airplane" in Spanish wouldn't get me up to speed very quickly. When I decided to visit South America in Nov 2008, I purchased the Spanish 1 & 2 (previous version)from Fluenz (through Amazon).

It was great! Sonia gets you up to speed very quickly and I had less than 2 months to become fluent enough to travel. That was a sucess. I was able to get through customs, order a meal, shop and negociate, take a taxi, check into a hotel - all in Spanish - talking with people who spoke no english whatsoever. I just received the upgraded versions of 1 & 2 along with #3 which was just released and I've only done the first couple of lessons, but I am learning quickly.

I did contact customer support to clarify some questions, and they respond immediately and go above what anyone would expect from a suppport group. I can't say more about how responsive they are and how pleased I am with the results.
Bottom line... if you want to learn basic Spanish quickly to begin speaking with native speakers - this is the way to go. Having used the other highly advertized software, I would give Fluenz a much higher rating! I am very pleased that I chose Fluenz.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Program on the Market, November 4, 2009 By Ellis Atwood

Here are my thoughts on Fluenz after having gone through level 1 and most of level 2:

1. Leverage your English - The teaching style has been covered extensively in reviews of Fluenz Version F2: Spanish 1+2 (Win/Mac) with software DVDs, audio CDs, podcasts, and Navigator. Learn Spanish with the latest upgrade., so I won't go into it too much. I will just point out that an important part of adult learning is making connections to existing knowledge. This is why learning subsequent languages is easier than learning your first foreign language - you have more vocabulary and structures to refer back to. As far as I know, Fluenz is the only program that actively leverages your knowledge of English for learning Spanish, and it makes retaining the information... Read more

From: Mauricio Evlampieff
May 24, 2011

Dear Spanish Learner,

If you've ever heard that children can pick up a new language faster and easier than adults, forget it. This is a common misconception. In fact, scientific research has proven that the most difficult learning task for children and adults alike may be the attempt to acquire second language proficiency in school environments.

In fact, even more distressing is that research has shown that less than 5% of students studying a foreign language are able to endure the stressful nature of formal school training to continue studying the language for more than two years (Asher, 1982).

It is simply not true that young children learn a new language more easily and quickly than adults, however, children are exposed to a more brain-compatible learning environment for learning a language than adults are in schools. This is the reason why they learn languages faster.

Research has shown that it typically takes approximately 2 to 3 months of study at the foreign service institute for an adult to become proficient in a foreign language. Knowing that this is possible sparked me on my mission to create an interactive Spanish learning package that could allow regular people, like you, to speak Spanish confidently and naturally in less than 2 months!

Want to try? Click Here!

If you want to...

* feel more comfortable and confident around Spanish speaking people
* be able to read books, magazines and web sites written in Spanish
* be able to watch and understand Spanish movies
* be able to write to and email Spanish speaking people
* or you simply want to become exceptional at Spanish for any other reason.

Writing Introductory Paragraph

2011-04-23T17:43:00.000-07:00

The introductory paragraph has two parts:

General Statements
A Thesis Statement

Notice the parts of the introductory paragraph in the following model:

A person born in the twentieth century has seen a lot of changes take place in almost areas of human life. Some people are excited by the challenges that these changes offer; others want to return to the simpler, less automated life style of the past. Living in the twentieth century has certain advantages such as a higher standart of living, but it also has some disadvantages such as polluted environment, the depersonalization of human relationships, and the weakening of spirit values.

The first sentence in an introductory paragraph should be a very general comment about the subject. Its purpose is to attract the reader's attention and to give background information on the topic. Each subsequent sentence should become more specific than the previous one and finally lead into the thesis statement.

General statements:

introduce the topic of the essay
give background information on the topic

The thesis statemnt is the most important sentence in the introductory paragraph. It statesthe specific topic and lists the major sub topics taht will be discussed in the body paragraph of the essay. Furthermore, it often indicates the method of organization such as chronological order or order of importance.
The thesis statement:

states the main topic
lists the subdivisions of the topic
may indicate the method of organization of the entire paper
is usually the last sentence in the introductory paragraph

Introductory Paragraph

2011-04-21T22:51:00.000-07:00

As my post earlier about writing essay, in this post i try to share what is Introductory Paragraph in essay. The Introductory Paragraph consist of two parts: a few general statements about your subject to attract your reader's attention and a thesis to state the specific subdivision of your topic and/or the plan of your paper. A thesis statement for an essay is just like a topic sentence for a paragraph: it names the specific topic and the controlling ideas or major subdivisions of the topic.

All writers (even professional) complain that the most difficult part of writing is getting started. How many times have you wasted valuable minutes during an essay examination trying to think of your first sentence? Getting started, or writing Introductory Paragraph, can be easy if you remember that an introduction has four purposes:

It introduces the topic of the essay
It gives a general background of the topic
It often indicates the overall plan of the essay
It should arouse the reader's interest in the topic

The Introductory Paragraph has two parts:

General Statements
A thesis statement

My next post will give you an example how to write an Introductory Paragraph.

Writing Essay

2011-04-21T16:18:00.000-07:00

An essay is a piece of writing several paragraphs long instead of just one or more paragraphs. It is written about one topic, just as a paragraph is. However, the topic of an essay is too long and too complex to discuss in one paragraph. Therefore, you must divide the topic into several paragraphs, one for each major point. Then you must tied all of the several paragraphs together by adding an introduction and a conclusion.

Writing an essay is no more difficult than writing a paragraph except that an essay is longer. The principles of organization are the same for both, so if you can write a good paragraph, you can write a good essay.

An essay has three main parts:

An introductory paragraph
A body (at least one, but usually two or more paragraphs)
A concluding paragraph

We will discuss the introductory paragraph, body paragraph and concluding paragraph into the next post.

Halo.... pasti lagi nyari tugas poem The Garden of Love punya William Blake yach...?
Saya juga dapet tugas mengulas puisi tersebut, sulit memang... tapi masih bisa diusahakan. Baca terus sampai tuntas ... akan saya ulas satu per satu... baris per baris... bait per bait...

The Garden of Love

I went to the Garden of Love,
And saw what I never had seen;
A Chapel was built in the midst,
Where I used to play on the green.

And the gates of this Chapel were shut
And "Thou shalt not," writ over the door;
So I turned to the Garden of Love
That so many sweet flowers bore.

And I saw it was filled with graves,
And tombstones where flowers should be;
And priests in black gowns were walking their rounds,
And binding with briars my joys and desires.

Tugasnya sebagai berikut:
1. The speaker in this poem describes the garden of love as he remembers it from his innocent youthhand as it appears to him now. What was the garden like in the past? How has it changed? How does the speaker feel about these changes?
2. Explain the last allusion in the last line of the poem!

Order of Importance Paragraph

2011-03-31T23:23:00.000-07:00

Another very common way to organize ideas in a paragraph is to discuss them in order of their importance. This method is very similar to logical order, the one difference is that you discuss each item in order of its importance (in your mind). You can discuss the most important item first and work down to the least important, or you can begin with the least important and end with the most important. Both way can effective.

Relationship Between Structure with Function of Roots

2011-03-29T22:43:00.000-07:00

In general, akar tumbuhan terletak di dalam tanah. Akar tumbuhan terdiri dari beberapa bagian, diantaranya adalah rambut akar (bulu akar) dan tudung akar. Rambut akar merupakan jalan masuk air dan zat lainnya. Sedangkan tudung akar berfungsi sebagai pelindung saat menembus tanah.

Akar tumbuhan dikelompokkan menjadi 2 yaitu akar serabut dan akar tunggang. Akar serabut berbentuk seperti serabut. Bagian ujung dan pangkal hampir sama ukurannya. Sama bagian akar keluar dari pangkal batang. Akar ini dimiliki oleh tumbuhan berkeping satu (monokotil), contohnya jagung, padi, tebu.

Sedangkan akar tunggang memiliki akar pokok. Akar pokok ini mempunyai cabang yang lebih kecil. Akar ini dimiliki oleh tumbuhan berkeping dua (dikotil) misalnya jeruk, mangga, dan kacang-kacangan.

Selain akar tunggang dan serabut, tumbuhan juga mempunyai akar khusus, misalnya akar gantung, akar tunjang, akar napas, akar pelekat.

Great subject material, unevenly covered. I had mixed feelings reading this book. Some sections were so good I was saying, "Bravo, well done" while other sections were so bad, I felt sorry for anyone trying to learn by reading them. (E.g. Ch4 on frequency domain modeling.) The book covers extremely useful material, but in an uneven way. It will especially appeal to readers who want simplified discussions of the ideas rather than deeper more theoretical discussions. For example, crosstalk --one of the most important topics, is covered in a very light manner, recommending use of simulators to obtain accurate results. Compare this with the coverage of the same subject in the remarkable book "Electromagnetic Compatibility" by Clayton Paul. Now, that book is "advanced" and "magical". This book doesn't get into any deep discussions of the fundamentals. It says that current flows in a loop, and inductance is related to loop area. Simple enough. Yet, how do we explain the inductance of the pin of an IC package, which is definitely not a loop? How is the energy-based definition of inductance used by simulators related to this simple definition? Even more fundamental, given that voltage can't be defined in a region where the magnetic field is changing, how come we can use the concept of voltage? (Read Paul Clayton for discussing all these concepts in great detail.)

Many previous articles are included in the book. Although some of them are entertaining (e.g. the pot hole story) most are just disturbances, and even worse, outdated and contradictory to authors later approach. For example, Dr. Johnson spends 3 pages! discussing how close a termination has to be, and drives an equation for the amount of reflection when the ideal termination is slightly away from the source. Later in a witty article the author declares that there is no more any excuse for not using simulation tools. He says "If you have to ask, simulate it." Definitely anybody who is wondering if their termination is close enough can download a free demo copy of PSpice and simulate this quickly and accurately.Nobody is going to use the equation the author drived and there is no new insight or theory developed either.

The author being the editor of the IEEE Ethernet specs, it is quite surprising how many sloppy mistakes there are. (KHz, kHz, Ghz, HZ,Hertz, hertz, pS, ps, ohm, Ohm, V, v, ; with and without spaces after the value are used with no consistency, "it's" is confused for "its" in more than one place, wrong equation numbers, irregular figures, mixed fonts and fonts sizes within the same equation, etc. are common occurrence.)

Despite its problems, this book will be a very useful reference book to people working in the field. Many sections have excellent detailed discussions. For example, performance regions of the transmission line breaking it into lumped, RC, LC, skin effect, dielectric loss, and waveguide dispersion regions is the most comprehensive I have seen. A useful book to add to one's library, but not a book lover's delight. Read more...

Understanding Language Testing

Understanding Language Testing presents an introduction to language tests and the process of test development that starts at the very beginning. Assuming no knowledge of the field, the book promotes a practical understanding of language testing using examples from a variety of languages.

While grounded on solid theoretical principles, the book focuses on fostering a true understanding of the various uses of language tests and the process of test development, scoring test performance, analyzing and interpreting test results, and above all, using tests as ethically and fairly as possible, and feel positive about their language learning.

Each chapter includes a summary, suggestions for further reading, and exercises. As such this is the ideal book for both beginning students of linguistics and languge education, or anyone in a related discipline looking for a first introduction to language testing.

Understanding Language Testing Author:
Dan Douglas is Professor Emeritus of linguistics, language testing, and second language acquisition, Iowa State University.

Lives Across Cultures Cross-Cultural Development

2010-11-30T06:37:00.000-08:00

Lives Across Cultures: Cross-Cultural Human Development (5th Edition)

Interdisciplinary exploration of cross-cultural human development throughout the lifespan.
Presented in a chronological-within-topics approach, covering the entire lifespan, this text focuses on cultural similarities and differences in human development throughout the world while emphasizing links among theory, research and practical applications. Combining the latest research with vignettes, stories, and personal experiences in their highly-praised, scholarly, yet engaging conversational – and frequently humorous – writing style, the authors make the study of similarities and differences an exciting experience.

Editorial Reviews:
“Covering all of the major developmental topics from cradle to grave, they take the reader through the labyrinth of lives that work and play and, unfortunately, fight through occasional major crises and the vexing problems of growing up. The style and tone of the book is genuinely comfortable. Reading it is like having a friendly dialogue with gentle and caring friends.”

From the Forward by Walter J. Lonner
Western Washington University

“To our knowledge this book has no competition, and is unique … It is unusual for a book to change a curriculum, but rather than being written to fill a demand for classes in cross-cultural human development, it appears that these courses are being created at various universities because Gardiner and Kozmitzki published this text … As Lonner writes in the foreword, the field is changing quickly and significantly, and LAC is in great hands as Gardiner and Kosmitzki reflect this change in each new edition.”

Concise and Efficient, August 26, 2007 By Bu-Chan
Like all of the "Oxford Introductions to Language Study", I found "Language Testing" to be both accessible and an informative, yet brief, introduction to the whole area of testing in language. Written with the absolute ignoramus in mind, (that would include me), McNamara's book is simply excellent.

Although it is not an in-depth analysis of the field, there is enough substance to give you a good overview and equip you with some of the more salient terminology and concepts. Lots of the terminology is printed in bold face, which makes it easy to highlight those words that will be used again and again throughout the book, and other books should you read more.

The book itself covers some of the history that has gone before us in testing, as well as chapters that discuss some of the issues facing test designers today. These include aspects like test design cycles, test validation, the rating process and more. There is also a good section of selected readings at the rear that relate to the chapters in the previous section.

Overall, if you are looking at beginning some reading on language testing, I would seriously recommend this book as the launching point. Pithy, concise and without a shred of waffling tripe, McNamara cuts to the chase effectively. It is a great book.

Short and to the point, April 6, 2010 By S. Macleod "newzild"
This book is very short. That is a good and a bad thing.

It is good because the book strips down the elements of language testing to the bare essentials. Most of the important issues are dealt with, and all are dealt with succinctly and in plain language.

It is bad if, as a reader, you are hoping for an in-depth discussion of testing-related issues.

I read the book because it was a core text for a course I took as part of an MA Applied Linguistics. Each chapter served as a bare-bones introduction to the topic of the week. It served this purpose well, but it was necessary for my lecturer to supplement each chapter with other readings.

The book is a good introduction to language testing in the EFL/ESL environment, and did a good job of structuring the university course that I took. I'd recommend it for both of those purposes.

Limitations of Natural Science

2010-11-30T03:28:00.000-08:00

Need to be tested to which the validity of scientific method and when the scientific method can not be applied. For that, it's better to consider such things as follows:

Field of natural science, which determines the field of natural science is the scientific method. Natural sciences is the place where the scientific method can be applied. For an example, the hypotheses about the existence of God is a concept that can not use the scientific method and when using this concept can cause people to become atheists.
The purpose of natural science, shaping and using the theory. Natural science can only bring evidence that the truths are temporary, in other words, the temporary truth is a "theory". Because nothing is absolute but continues to change. An example is the theory about the earth is round.
Natural science and values. Natural science does not determine the moral or value of a decision. Humans as users of natural science who assess whether the results of both natural sciences or vice versa. An example is the discovery of weapons and atomic bombs.

Improved Power Sensing

2010-11-29T00:47:00.000-08:00

Some kind of way can be done to improve the senses in order to obtain accurate results, among others:

Exercises, examples of sensing about the smell and sound (quality wine, tea, musical instruments).
Increased vigilance, alertness level is strongly influenced by the interest that led to different conclusions, we can see the opinion of some people on a storefront or a report of an accident of some people.
Instrument calibration, instrument calibration is compared with existing standards.
Checking, is a good thing to avoid confusion.
Experiments, sensing in the controlled experimental conditions, we know what are the factors which influence towards a change.
Sensing that includes analysis and synthesis, observation of the parts or the whole observation.
New instruments, can make a new sensing, like lie detectors, telescopes, satellites and others.
Measurements, a skill in itself, an example in the manufacture of machine or architecture.

Writing Chronological Paragraph

2010-11-27T19:12:00.000-08:00

Chronological order is used for something as simple as a recipe and for something as complex as a history book. In academic writing, chronological order has many uses. One of the primary ways you might use it is to write a historical review of the subject of a term paper. For example, you might review the history of labor unions before you discuss the current situation.

To write a chronological paragraph, whether it is history or a process:

Make a simple outline that lists the events (in a history) or the steps (in a process) in the order of their occurrence.
Add transition signals at appropriate points in the left margin of your outline.
Write a topic sentence that names the event or the process.
Write the paragraph, following your outline. Add enough details to make the chain of events or steps in the process very clear.

Principles Multiple-Choice Items

2010-11-27T07:17:00.000-08:00

The following general principles should be observed when multiple-choice items are constructed:

Each multiple-choice item should have only one answer. This answer must be absolutely correct unless the instruction specifies choosing the best option (as in some vocabulary tests).
Only one feature at a time should be tested: it is usually less confusing for the testes and it helps to reinforce a particular teaching point.
Each option should be grammatically correct when placed in the stem, except of course in the case of specific grammar test items.
All multiple-choice items should be at level appropriate to the proficiency level of the testes.
Multiples-choice items should be as brief and as clear as possible (though it is desirable to provide short contexts for grammar items).
In many test, items are arranged in rough order of increasing difficulty.

Agreement Collective Nouns

2010-11-27T00:54:00.000-08:00

Occasionally, a noun that is singular in form may be used in a plural sense

The crowd were waving their arms and shouting.
The committee were arguing.

Usually, however, nouns like class, group, committee, jury, and so on called collectives - are considered singular, and the -s form of the verb is used with them.

The committee is meeting.
The jury has been dismissed.

Verb Forms and Auxiliaries That Do Not Change Form for Agreement
The following sentences have past tense verb.

The books came.
The book came.
I came.

They worked.
Marie worked.
We worked.

The simple past form of the verb does not change when the person or number of the subject changes. The same thing is true of modal auxiliaries. In the following sets of sentences, the auxiliaries remain constant regardless of the person and number of the subject.

Prof. Robert will lecture at 09:00.
The students will listen

Mrs. Todd and her children must leave early.
I must go to the bank.

What can I do for you?
Can they help?

Agreement Compound Subjects

2010-11-27T00:00:00.000-08:00

A compound subject may cause confusing in the agreement of the subject and predicate.

If the parts of the compound subject are joined by and, whether they are singular or plural, the plural form of the verb is used.

The boys and girls are singing.
John and Susan work.

If the parts of the compound subject are singular and are joined by such connecives as or, nor, either ... or, neither ... nor, not only ... but also, the singular form of verb is used.

Either Tommy or his girl friend is invited.
Neither Bob nor Juan studies.

If the parts of the compound subject joined by or, nor, either ... or, neither ... nor, not only ... but also are different in number of person, the part nearest the verb determines the number of the verb.

Neither John nor his sisters play.
Not only the students but also Prof. Robert is coming.

What is meant by normal? It is important to understand the term, since it so frequently used to describe the condition of the mentally healthy individual. In one sense, "normal" is a synonym for "typical". This is a statistical use of the word, meaning that an individual is average compared with group norms. The classic examples that of the individual whose height and weight are considered normal because his average height and weight for his age.

Main Idea: In one sense, normal is a synonym for typical, meaning that an individual is average compared with group norms that of the individual whose height and weight are considered normal because his average height and weight for his age.

Every reaction to a stimulus requires a finite amount of time, and the time between stimulus and response is called reaction time. For simple reflexes, this time is of the order of 1/10 second, though it varies with the reflex. For simple voluntary reactions, such as pushing a key when a light is flashed or a bell is sounded, the reaction time is roughly 2/10 second. For more complex reactions, such as pushing the brake pedal on a automobile, reaction time is closer to one second.

Main Idea: Reaction time for simple reflexes is 1/10 second, for simple voluntary reaction is 2/10 second, for complex reaction is closer to one second.

Even for those energies to which a sense organ responds, no sense is infinitely sensitive. Each sense organ requires some minimum energy for stimulation. There are sounds that are too soft to be felt, and movements that are too slight to be detected. In a word, every sense organ has its absolute threshold. This is minimum stimulus energy to wich it can respond.
