(W) “Indonesian Idol”, a commercial TV program which is broadcasted by RCT, one of the private TV station in Indonesia is a combination of a reality show and a talent show. “Indonesian Idol” is the Indonesian version of American Idol. I personally think that the winner of the talent show, is not guaranteed to be of good quality because the score comes from the audience and supporters’ SMS. People sometimes do not consider the jury’s comments on the contestants. They would prefer focusing on the contestants physical appearance. After the contest is over, only a few the winners get a chance to be professional stars. Why is it so? Because they don’t have great skills to be professional stars. It’s time for the committee to consider the winners not only from their popularity, but also their quality.

Most people own and bring cellphone. Why do cell phone users increase in recent years?

Most students use cell phones unwisely. They use cell phones for talking to their friends during class session. They use the calculator and camera features in the class as well. Those activities may lead less concentration during teaching-learning process.
