gained only if they accustom to explore their ideas using all their
multi modalities.

The results verify that cartoons and comics helped

students could enjoy their learning and freely exploring their
creative and analytical thinking.

learning a new language. In addition, Oliver (2007:2) explains that children can learn to
analyze cartoons, look for subtleties beneath the surface of familiar
situations, and gain a better understanding of

my daily conversations in this life tenses for speaking, listening and writing
also read it only three times. That is the time that we passed, while we are
doing and we will do the time. Why do we have to make ourselves puzzled to
learn that so many tenses, whereas be concluded only three tenses, which
we use in conversation, we also know the meaning of the language itself that is
a tool for communications i language support and interact with each other. but we
need to know is how to make understand the people with whom we interact. Thus
if we can get people who we are talking to can understand the three time why
should we complicate ourselves ...

Dutch arms when to give up and admit defeat, because we see the true reality of
life in this country is that there are still many invaders in the environment
around us. However, the actual colonial government was irresponsible in running

now the invaders are invaders and toxic foul-mouthed and acting like heroes,
because they are very easy to position in mastering the little people below.
They've forgotten if they also live like they eat just like cannibals, who only
steals money through the back door when people who are working in their own

Actually what happens in politics is in this country, too cruel politics used by the governments concerned group only, so that they are completely blind in making decisions, why they are not aware that they are following the life of this world, but they were born just by crying and naked state without a shroud whatever they brought from world before they were born, why after his birth arrives - arrives to take control should he did not understand, I just long for a leader who sincerely carry out the mandate, and not just make laws - laws that ultimately they are abusing the law, if the first government of the people for the people said, but now from the government to the government itself. God do not let people who are not responsible for it's life in the future
