Her gift to him was …….By Michele Cempaka

She cut out a piece and sent it to him in a small metal box with broken latch.Three days later it arrived at his place smelling like rancid meat that had been baking in the sun

for several days. He opened the box carefully, afraid to see what he might discover.Even before he looked inside he knew what its contain would be, and as he suspected, he found a

large portion of her heart.He picked up the jagged scrap of flesh, feeling its rough wetness between his fingers. It felt so

small and light in his hand. He didn’t know what to do with. He’d told her not to send it, but she has insisted.

He looked around the room searching for a container for it, something that would keep her heart more securely sealed, unlike the metal box that she had sent it in.

He would keep her heart, for he knew it was no small gift that she had sent him. Yet, he still could stand the sight and smell of it, and knew that he must store it away soon.

Maybe he could send it back to her. Why did she have to choose him? He walked toward the kitchen, his right hand still holding on to the heart fragment. With his left hand he opened a cupboard and felt around until his hand touched a cylinder-shaped container.

“I’ll put it in here and then I’ll figure out what to do with it,” he said for himself.The heart fit nicely in the container, there was even room to spare. Now all that he needed was a

lid. He searched inside the cupboard again and spotted three lids. He tried one and then the next, and finally the last, but none fit the container.

His head was beginning to feel light, so he sat down on a sofa nearby and stared at the hand that had just held her heart.

She had thought about it for a long time before she made a decision to do it. A gift…. a gift of a total love, something that always be remembered and cherished.

She thought that this gift, the gift of her heart, would ensure everlasting love with him. She’d done this twice before, cutting away a sliver and sending it off to her lover, but both times it was refused.

My kids are taking swimming lessons now at a local swimming pool. The lessons first teach kids how to not be afraid of the water by learning how to put their face under the water and holding their breath for a few seconds. Next, the lessons teach children how to float on their backs. Later on, kids learn how to do some of the basic strokes including freestyle, breast stroke, and backstroke.

Many children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as careers for siblings, or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them. Thousands more are not registered at any school at all, because of their families' unstable lives.

Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths. First of all, the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves. Secondly, once children go to school, we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.

In Britain, the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade schools to bring truants' and excluded children back into the classroom. It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children. Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school; if they do not meet the target, the grant is withdrawn. Parents are the subject of this campaign, too: the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school, and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.

35. What does the text talk about?A. Education for children B. Families unstable livesC. Parents for whom school has no pointD. Children for whom school has no pointE. Children who can’t effort to go to school

36. Children do not go school because of ….A. their environmentB. school’s experienceC. their parents’ supportD. Government’s supportE. their parents’ unstable lives

37. “……..the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,..” The word “fines” in the sentence above has same meaning with ….A. chargesB. goodsC. rightsD. rulesE. bits

38. What happen to children if they are in the street? A. The police will arrest them.B. The police will pick them up.C. Their parents will let them do that.D. The teacher will take them to school.E. Their parents will be angry with them.

The changing of the security strategy and system in a state is something that we cannot deny. Security strategies and systems are dynamic, where changes are highly influenced by the context of the strategic environment. Changes such as the wave of democratization, the shifting of inter-state conflicts into intra-state conflicts, globalization, technological advances and the increased flow of information and the recognition of human rights have all directly and indirectly forced many countries to rearrange their respective security systems. In Indonesia, although some positive achievements have been reached through the security sector reform period since 1998, reforms remain insufficient. These changes include reforms in the levels of regulations, as well as changes to roles and functions of security actors. However, these changes are inadequate to develop a proper national security system, especially considering the complexity of threats and the evolution of the security concept. In security studies, the concept of security can roughly be categorized into traditional and non-traditional approaches. In general, the two have encountered a debate about the referent object of security (Barry Buzan: 1991). In the traditional approach, security is simply defined as security of the state, which may be threatened by military force from other states, and must be defended through military power itself. Meanwhile, in the non-traditional approach, the concept of security is wider and places greater emphasis on non-state actors’ interests. This approach was developed following the decline of military threats to state sovereignty and the emergence of other threats to human security such as infectious diseases, natural disasters, environmental damage and others. Furthermore, the referent object of security becomes more widespread and is no longer focused on the state but also human security. The United Nations Development Program’s (UNDP) Human Development Report (1994) affirmed seven dimensions that should be considered related to human security, namely: economic security, food security, health security, environmental security, individual security, community security and political security.

From the above explanation, we can conclude that security is no longer related only with protecting the territory of a state, but also includes efforts to ensure, fulfill and protect the security of citizens.
