penerapan etika di masyarakat

Kita sebagai manusia sebenarnya paling beruntung dan paling sempurna disbanding makhluk-makhluk lain ciptaan-NYa. Allah swt telah memberikan begitu banyak nikmat kepada kita semua umatnya dan kita juga harus mensyukuri segala nikmat yang telah diberikan oleh-Nya. Salah satu nikmat yang Allah swt berikan kepada kita yaitu Allah swt memberikan kita sumber daya alam yang melimpah ruah di negeri kita ini. Sumber Daya Alam itu sendiri terbagi dalam 2 jenis yaitu, SDA yang dapat diperbaharui dan SDA yang tidak dapat diperbaharui. Adapun SDA yang dapat diperbaharui kembali yaitu, air, udara, tanah, dan tumbuhan. Begitu juga dengan SDA yang tidak dapat diperbaharui kembali dan lama-kelamaan akan habis diantaranya, batu bara, minyak bumi, dan lainnya.

Di masa modern seperti sekarang ini sering kali terjadi pemanasan global. Pemanasan global tersebut merupakan perbuatan yang dilakukan oleh tangan manusia itu sendiri dan dapat menimbulkan efek yang sangat tidak baik dan dapat menyebabkan bencana-bencana alam yang tidak kita inginkan. Hal ini juga menyebabkan kelembaban udara menjadi asam dan polusi juga terjadi dimana-mana dan dapat menambah keasaman udara serta menipisnya lapisan ozon bumi kita.

Air merupakan salah satu SDA yang dapat diperbaharui tapi mengapa masih banyak penduduk daerah-daerah terpencil di Negara kita yang tidak dapat merasakan air yang bersih karena air bersih langka. Hal ini disebabkan karena ulah tangan manusia itu sendiri yang tidak dapat menggunakan air bersih seefisien mungkin dan banyak sumber-sumber mata air yang dijadikan tempat pembuangan sampah yang dapat menyebabkan air menjadi kotor dan tercemar.

Minyak bumi merupakan salah satu SDA yang tidak dapat diperbaharui. Salah satu contoh dari minyak bumi yaitu, BBM (Bahan Bakar Minyak). Mengapa harga BBM di dunia naik? Karena BBM di dunia itu jumlahnya semakin sedikit. Hal itu disebabkan karena Begitu banyaknya para pengendara kendaraan bermotor di dunia yang menggunakan BBM setiap hari untuk melakukan berbagai aktivitas. Lama-kelamaan BBM akan habis juga. Apa yang terjadi apabila BBM habis, mungkin nanti orang-orang untuk mencapai tempat yang akan dituju harus dengan berjalan kaki.

Maka dari itu marilah kita semua menghemat SDA yang ada di Bumi kita agar kelak anak cucu kita juga dapat merasakan salah satu nikmat yang Allah berikan tersebut kepada kita. Tidak sulit untuk menjaga agar SDA dapat dinikmati di masa depan. Hanya dengan cara menghemat, Jangan boros menggunakan SDA, gunakan seperlunya saja dan jaga SDA dengan baik serta jangan merusaknya.

Tentang TOEFL

Pengertian
TOEFL merupakan singkatan dari Test Of English as a Foreign Language. TOEFL adalah standardisasi kemampuan bahasa inggris seseorang secara tertulis (de jure) yang meliputi empat aspek penguasaan: Listening, Writing dan Reading.
Sistem penilaian TOEFL menggunakan konversi dari setiap jawaban yang benar. Nilai TOEFL tertinggi yang bisa dicapai seseorang adalah 675.

Tujuan Test TOEFL
TOEFL memiliki dua tujuan umum yaitu: Academic dan General. Dalam bentuk yang sama, sertifikasi rekomendasi TOEFL bisa gunakan untuk kedua hal tadi.
Academic adalah menggunakan test untuk tujuan pendidikan, penelitian atau yang berhubungan dengan kegiatan akademis di luar negeri, ataupun di Indonesia. Untuk paska sarjana, biasanya nilai minimal adalah 550. sedangkan untuk S1 adalah 500
General pada umumnya digunakan untuk tujuan pekerjaan, kenaikan pangkat atau tugas kerja. Banyak perusahaan yang memasang standar bahasa inggris karyawannya dengan melihat nilai TOEFL – nya. Umumnya, nilai TOEFL minimal adalah 500 untuk kenaikan pangkat standar.
Sepanjang yang saya temui, kisaran nilai TOEFL rata – rata orang indonesia dengan jenjang pendidikan minimal S1 sangat fluktuatif. Bahkan ada beberapa yang tidak mengetahui apa dan untuk apa itu TOEFL (mereka membaca dengan : ”tufl”). Tidak demikian dengan para pengambil jurusan bahasa inggris semasa kuliah. Minimal mereka tahu, apa itu TOEFL. Meski demikian, nilai TOEFL seorang mahasiswa atau lulusan jurusan bahasa inggris sekalipun tidak menjamin tinggi. Pada beberapa kali case recruiment, saya mendapati beberapa applicant mendapatkan nilai TOEFL 300, padahal di lamarannya, yang bersangkutan adalah alumni sebuah ABA (Akademi Bahasa Asing).
Sedangkan secara umum, fluktuasi nilai TOEFL rata – ratanya berkisar antara 300 sampai 600.

Apakah nilai TOEFL seseorang menjamin kemampuan bahasa inggris seseorang?
Umumnya, orang memahami bahwa bahasa inggris adalah speaking, conversation, cas cis cus dan seterusnya. Bahasa inggris mengcover 4 skill utama yaitu: Listening (pencernaan kata melalui pendengaran), Writing (pencernaan kata melalui tulisan dan tata bahasanya), reading (pencernaan makna sebuah text bahasa) dan Speaking (mampu mengucapkannya).
Berbicara tentang penguasaan bahasa, maka tidak bisa dilepaskan dari penguasaan empat skill tadi, secara sempurna. Namun, banyak yang beranggapan, yang penting adalah kemampuan mengucapkannya, meski dengan tata bahasa yang penuh toleransi dan pilihan kata yang seadanya dan asal ketemu.
Contohnya:
John : Would you drive me to the hospital?
Us : Better go now….
Dari makna pembicaraan, ucapan tersebut memiliki pengertian. Tetapi kita juga tahu, kualitas seseorang diketahui dari caranya berbicara, terlebih penggunaan diksinya (pilihan kata).
