A. The students read the text carefully CAN “AFI” GUARANTEE ONE TO BE A TALANTED SINGER? “Menuju Puncak” is a song that is so popular now. No one can deny that AFI (Akademi Fantasi Indosiar) has fascinated many fans around the nation. As one of the many talent search shows, AFI is bound to be compared with other such programs like “Indonesian Idol”, “Penghuni Rumah Terakhir”, “KDI”, “Indonesia Cantik” and so on. AFI has offered unique package for viewers; a combination between a reality show and a talent show. It is way of finding real entertainers has increased the public’s awareness of the difficulties in reaching the top in the entertainment business. But frankly speaking, AFI has not fully succeeded in reaching its main goal. If you take a objective look at a number of the winners, you will see that they are not yet able to fill the most basic requirements, which is to sing properly. This is ironic, considering all the criticisms coming from the judges about pitch tones, tempos, and everything that has to do with becoming a good singer. Thus, if we want to improve the Indonesian music industry, we should really think about the singer’s and the musician’s talents and train them appropriately, so they can be a professional singer or musician.

: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening THE MEDIA: A LANGUAGE TEACHER Ask people what they think of the media and immediately you will get negative

statements about the ‘silly box’ or the ‘rubbish magazines’ available. However, the media, including the radio, is not all bad. In fact, it would be fair to say that the media could also help you learn English. Let’s begin with television. Most film and soap operas which are shown on television are in English. These are, of course, subtitled. However, by listening carefully to a film, you can pick up new vocabulary, listen to a variety of accent or reinforce what you already know. When it comes to things like international fashion, music and sport, most of the information can be found in magazines published in English. If you want to be up-to-date and improve your English at the same time, all you have to do is buy these publications. Well, what about the radio? It’s widely known that many people, including teenagers, listen to radio stations that play songs in English. This is good listening practice, as they are in contact with the language. It can also help them improve their pronunciation. These are only a few of the ways the media can help with English language learning. The good thing is that you can have fun at the same time.
