Let‟s practice introductions.
a. Introduce your friend to your teacher.
b. Introduce one classmate to another classmate
c. Practice a formal introduction.
d. Introduce yourself to your teacher
e. Introduce your classmate to a classmate.
a. Subject: The subject is the agent of the sentence in the active voice; it is the
person or thing that does the action of the sentence, and it normally precedes
the verb. NOTE: Every sentence in English must have a subject. (In
the case of commands, the subject is understood)
1) The subject may be a single noun.
Coffee is delicious
b. Verb: The verb follows the subject; it generally shows the action of the
sentence. Note: Every sentence must have a verb.
1) The verb may be a single word.
John drives too fast
They hate spinach
2) The verb may be a verb phrase. A verb phrase consists of one or more
auxiliaries and one main verb. The auxiliaries always precede the main
verb.
John is going to Miami tomorrow
Jane has been reading that book.
d. Modifier: A modifier tells the time, place, or manner of the action. Very often
it is a prepositional phrase. A prepositional phrase is a group of words that
begins with a preposition and ends with a noun. Note: every sentence
doesn't require a modifier. A modifier answers the question when?
Where? Or how?
John bought a book at the bookstore. (where)
He was driving very fast (how)
I saw him yesterday (when)
Note: a modifier of time usually comes last if more than a modifier is
present.
Example:
Jill was swimming in the pool yesterday

C. READING COMPREHENSION
Muhammad
Muhammad was born in or about the year 570.He was born into a family
belonging to a clan of Quraysh, the ruling tribe of Mecca, a city in the Hijaz region of
northwestern Arabia. Originally the site of the Ka'bah, Mecca had become an
important center of sixth-century trade. As a result the city was dominated by
powerful merchant families among whom the men of Quraysh were preeminent.
Muhammad's father, 'Abd Allah ibn'Abd al-Muttalib, died before the boy was
born; his mother, Aminah, died when he was six. The orphan was consigned to the
About the year 590, Muhammad entered the service of a widow named
Khadijah as a merchant actively engaged with trading caravans to the north.
Sometime later Muhammad married Khadijah, by whom he had two sons - who did
not survive - and four daughters.
During this period of his life Muhammad travelled widely. Then, in his forties
he began to retire to meditate in a cave on Mount Hira outside of Mecca, where the
first of the great events of Islam took place. One day, as he sat in the cave, he heard a
voice of the Angel Gabriel, which ordered him to: “Recite: In the name of thy Lord
who created, Created man from a clot of blood.” Three times Muhammad pleaded
his inability to do so, but each time the command was repeated. Finally, Muhammad
recited the words of what are now the first five verses of the 96th surah or chapter of
the Quran.
At first Muhammad divulged his experience only to his wife and his immediate
circle. But as more revelations enjoined him to proclaim the oneness of God
universally, his following grew, at first among the poor and the slaves, but later also
among the most prominent men of Mecca. The revelations he received are all
incorporated in the Quran, the Scripture of Islam.
Glossary:
Site (N) : A place where a building was situated.
Was consigned to (V) : Was given to
Desert (N) : Large area with very little water and vegetation
Forbearance (N) : Tolerance
Herdsmen (N) : persons who look after a herd of animals
Retire (V) : go away to somewhere quiet or private

C. READING COMPREHENSION
However, in this fast moving world, more than 1400 years after the Prophet
(s.a.w.), can Muslims find room for the principles of their religion? The answer
comes with the fact that a global network of Islamic banks has started to take shape
based on the principles of Islamic finance. Islamic banking is based on the Qur'anic
prohibition of charging interest. It has moved from a theoretical concept to embrace
more than 100 banks operating in 40 countries with multi-billion dollar deposits
world-wide. It is also widely regarded as the fastest growing sector in the Middle
Eastern financial service market.
The rules regarding Islamic finance are quite simple and can be summed up as
follows:
1. Any predetermined payment over and above the actual amount of principal
is prohibited.
2. The lender must share in the profits or losses arising out of the enterprise for
which the money was lent.
3. Making money from money is not Islamically acceptable.
4. Gharar (Uncertainty, Risk or Speculation) is also prohibited.

Over the past 400 years, the form of the language used in the Americas –
especially in the United States – and that used in the United Kingdom and the rest of
the British Isles have diverged in many ways, leading to the dialects now commonly
referred to as American English and British English. Differences between the two
include pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary (lexis), spelling, punctuation, idioms,
formatting of dates and numbers, and so on. A small number of words have
completely different meanings between the two dialects or are even unknown or not
used in one of the dialects. One particular contribution towards formalizing these
differences came from Noah Webster, who wrote the first American dictionary
(published 1828) with the intention of showing that people in the United States
spoke a different dialect from Britain.
This divergence between American English and British English once caused
George Bernard Shaw to say that the United States and United Kingdom are "two
countries divided by a common language"; a similar comment is ascribed to Winston
Churchill. Likewise, Oscar Wilde wrote, "We have really everything in common with
America nowadays, except, of course, the language" (The Canterville Ghost, 1888).
Henry Sweet predicted in 1877 that within a century, American English, Australian
Nevertheless, it remains the case that although spoken American and British
English are generally mutually intelligible, there are enough differences to cause
occasional misunderstandings or at times embarrassment – for example, some
words that are quite innocent in one dialect may be considered vulgar in the other.
Glossary:
To spread (V) : To distribute widely
To diverge (V) : to move, to differ
Intention(N) : purpose, design
Is ascribed to (V) : attributed to,
Unintelligible (Adj) : not understandable
To reduce (V) : to change, bring back
Extinct (Adj) : inactive
Core (N) : heart
Idiosyncrasies (N) : a structural characteristic unique to individual or group
Dialect (N) : a regional variety of language

AL-KINDI
Al-Kindi, the Latin Alkindus, who is entitled the “Philosopher of Arabs”
came from the Arabs tribe of Kindah. His ancestors had settled in Kufa where his
father was governor. Al-Kindi spent his early life in Kufa, which had become a
centre of the sciences. He studied the religious sciences as well as philosophical
science after going to Baghdad. At this time the major movement of translation
into Arabic had already began. He knew Syriac and perhaps some Greek and was
well acquainted with Graeco Helenistic scientific and philosophical works. For
some time he was held in high esteem in court but spent the last part of his life in
obscurity.
Al-Kindi was the first of the Muslim philosopher-scientists. His interest
was encyclopaedic. He wrote about two hundred seventy treatises, most of which
are now lost, in logic, philosophy, physics, all branches of mathematics as well as
music, medicine and natural history. He was the founder of the Islamic
Peripatetic school of philosophy and was highly respected in the medieval and
Renaissance West to the extent that he was considered as one of the judies of
astrology and Cordano called him one of the twelve great intellectual figures of
humanity. His immediate students were well-known geographer and
mathematicians, while his philosophic influence is to be seen directly in the
writings of al-Farabi and later Muslim Peripatetic.

over to others. In addition, they are willing to spend many hours at home planning
their lesson and correcting papers. They are well- organized people too. They know
how to handle classroom routines, and they accept a certain amount of clerical work
as part of the job. Above all, they know how to get along with others, including their
supervisor and the rest of the faculty.
Good mental and physical health are important too. A teacher must have
energy and stamina because it is not easy to keep a group of youngsters interested
and controlled almost 200 days a year. Teachers also must be concerned with their
appearance, for they are the models that their students emulate. Finally, a teacher
must be willing to serve others.

A. COMMUNICATION
Study the following dialogue
Tom : What d‟ you think of Jakarta?
Cintya : Well, it‟s very big, isn‟t it?
Tom : Too big I think. What‟s Malang like?
Cintya : Oh, it‟s much smaller of course
Tom : And how d‟you like our hot weather?
Cintya : Well, it hasn‟t been too bad lately. –By the way, may I ask you something?
What‟s the Brawijaya Museum like?
Tom : Well, I prefer the art gallery. It‟s less like a museum.
CONVERSATIONAL OPENING
To start a communication, we can use:
1. Question
To start a conversation in a foreign language, it is good for us to have a
supply of questions. It is very important especially if the person we are speaking to is
probably just as shy as we are.
Here are some common patterns:
- What did you think of…?
- What‟s it like?
- How'd you like….?
- What d‟ you think of Borobudur? – I think it‟s a very fantastic temple
- What did you think of the party last night?-I enjoyed it very much
- How did you enjoy your trip?-I found it very interesting
2. Remarks
Remarks are often used to start a conversation. Such remarks often begin (or
end) with certain key verbs in the first person:
-Expect I expect you‟ve seen the country already ( an indirect way of finding
out where you‟ve been)
-Suppose It‟s pretty cold in your country in the winter, I suppose.
-Imagine I imagine you have to work pretty hard in a job like yours.
-Hear I hear you„ll be staying here for some time.
From the expression above we can see that these remarks are in many cases
distinguished questions. English people often try to avoid a direct question because
they are afraid of appearing „nosey‟. A remark is more casual and oblique. Beside
such remark, sometimes we can use a question tag.
E.g. It‟s a lovely beach, isn‟t it?
This is a comfortable hotel, isn‟t it?
This winter‟s been bad, hasn‟t it?
Practice
1. Make a role play. Continue the following conversational opening with your own
words, then your partner make the replay.
a) Question b) Remarks
What do you think of…..? I expect……….
How d‟ you like…..? I suppose………
2. Develop a conversation based on the following situation. Imagine you are taking
Aisyah round your hometown. Point out places of interest and tell her something
about them.
3. Report the result of conversation no 2 to someone else. You can use the following
model:
Well, first of all we talk about…….. Then I ask her what I like. She told
me…….Then we discussed …….. In the end I invited……….

C. READING COMPREHENSION
Today, we are taught that zakat is one of the pillars of Islam. Zakat is
generally translated as charity or poor due and it is required to be distributed
according to the details given in the Shariah. However, the descendents of the
Prophet (pbuh), generally known as "Syeds" in the Indian subcontinent are
forbidden to take zakat according to this Shariah. No matter how poor, they are
considered superior by birth compared to other Muslims due to their supposed
relationship with the Prophet (pbuh). Obviously, this is against our Prophet's
Sunnah since he proclaimed justice, fairness, and equality for all, regardless of
family or blood relationship.
Find the part of speech and the meaning of the following words, and construct them
into good sentences.
State whether the following sentences are True (T) or False (F) according to the
passage!

Using unless
b. Alfin will come tomorrow if she isn't busy
= Alfin will come tomorrow unless she is busy
He won't buy a new car if he doesn't have a lot of money
= He won't buy a new car unless he has a lot of money
If you don't change your mind, I won't help you.
= Unless you change your mind, I won't help you. (except you change)
The sentences above are usually called future possible condition. A sentence that
expresses a future possible condition refers to an action that may or may not take
place in the future. The simple present tense is used in conditional (if) clause,
while the simple future is used in the other clauses. Something will happen if a
certain condition is fulfilled. Unless means if….not. Unless is stronger than if…not,
it can be used to show a thread. Note that when the verb in the if clause is
negative, the verb in unless clause is affirmative. The if clause may precede or
follow the main clause. When the if clause comes at the beginning of the sentence,
it is followed by a comma.
Arabic Transliteration
During the last few decades and especially since the 1990s, Western-invented
text communication technologies have become prevalent in the Arab world, such as
personal computers, the World Wide Web, email, Bulletin board systems, IRC,
instant messaging and mobile phone text messaging. Most of these technologies
originally had the ability to communicate using the Latin alphabet only, and some of
them still do not have the Arabic alphabet as an optional feature. As a result, Arabic
speaking users communicated in these technologies by transliterating the Arabic text
using the Latin script, sometime known as IM Arabic.

English Vocabulary
English is noted for the vast size of its active vocabulary and its fluidity.
English easily accepts technical terms into common usage and imports new words
and phrases that often come into common usage. Examples of this phenomenon
include: cookie, Internet and URL (technical terms), as well as genre, über, lingua
franca and amigo (imported words/phrases from French, German, modern Latin,
and Spanish, respectively). In addition, slang often provides new meanings for old
words and phrases. In fact, this fluidity is so pronounced that a distinction often
needs to be made between formal forms of English and contemporary usage.
Find the part of speech and the meaning of the following words, and construct them
into good sentences.

Al Usul: Definition and Clarification
In the age of ijtihad that followed, when the first schism occurred between the
Ummah's political and intellectual leadership, Muslim thinkers and scholars were
still in close touch with the spirit of the message and the methods of the earliest age
of Islam. As a result, they wrote and thought on the basis of the early methodology.
However, as their political isolation grew, they began to shun all but academic
pursuits, and taught and wrote on the most personalized aspects of the texts of the
Qur'an and the Sunnah, such as worship and transactions, and ignored issues
related to politics, government, social organization, and the general nature of the
group and society. As a result, the source methodology they used became
conditioned by the purposes it served, while conforming to the circumstances under
which it was developed, and over which the scholars of Islam had no control.
Find the part of speech and the meaning of the following words, and construct
them into good sentences.
