Have you ever been to the beach? Did you see a man with a headset pointing a long pole at the ground? If so you might have seen a person using a metal detector. People use these devices to find metal. Metal detectors make magnetic waves. These waves go through the ground. The waves change when they hit metal. Then the device beeps. This lets the person with the device know that metal is close. The first metal detectors were meant to help miners. They were big. They cost a lot of money. They used a lot of power. And worst of all, they didn't work well. People kept trying to make them better. Metal detectors got smaller. Now they are light and cheap. They also work better. That is why people bring them to the beach. They can look for rings in the water. They can look for phones in the sand. Metal detectors help them find these things. They usually just find junk though. Metal detectors also protect people. They help to keep guns out of some places. They are in airports. They are in courthouses. Some schools use them. They help guards look for weapons. Guards use special wands to find metal on a person.

These devices save lives in other ways too. During wars, people plant bombs in the ground. When the war ends, they don't clean up their messes. This is unsafe for the people who live in those places. Others use metal detectors to find bombs. They remove them and help the people. These devices also make clothes safer. It sounds funny, but it's true. Most clothes are made in big factories. There are lots of needles in these places. Needles break from time to time. They get stuck in the clothes. They would poke people trying them on. They don't though. That's because our clothes are scanned for metal. Isn't that nice? Let's hear it for metal detectors. They make the world a safer place

The moon shines down on the land of a remote village in Padang Bolak. The sound of howling coyotes was carried by the night breeze. Sampuraga looked up at the moon with an uneasy feeling.

His landlord's words three days ago made it difficult for him to close his eyes. “Still not sure, Raga?” asked Tondi, who faithfully accompanied Sampuraga. “I'm capable of migrating, what's the harm in just walking a long way?” replied Sampuraga.

Tondi sighed for a moment before speaking again, “But Raga, what about...” Before Tondi could continue, a woman with a frail body and bleached hair appeared from behind the door.

“Umak...” called Sampuraga. “Nape modom ho, amang? (Haven't you slept yet, son?)” asked the old woman approaching Sampuraga.

“Ahadei, amang?” she continued. Hearing the question, Sampuraga looked down.

“I cooked holat with your favorite pakkat but you didn't eat it. You have been sleeping late for the past three days. Tell me about it with Umak,” said the old woman. “Raga wants to migrate Umak,” said Sampuraga.

The request made Mrs. Sampuraga's blood boil, “Do you want to leave Umak?” Raga revealed his heart. “Raga wants to change our fate by going to Mandailing. Giot pasonang Umak do au so ke au marantau (I want to please my mother that's why I'm going overseas)” Sampuraga explained.

 

“Saotik peindaadong hu bayangkanmarsarak dot hu (Not even a little bit I imagine amang inda can hu pasonang ho (I apologize for not being able to make you happy),” said Mrs. Sampuraga softly. “Umak...” Sampuraga replied no less softly.

Sampuraga immediately knelt before his mother. “Thank you Umak! Raga promised to come back after he succeeded,” Sampuraga promised his mother. Tondi, who witnessed the emotional event in front of him, could not hold back his tears.

For days Sampuraga walked with Tondi through the wilderness and various villages. They finally arrived at a place called Pidoli, Mandailing. Sampuraga was mesmerized after seeing the prosperity and well-being in the Pidoli region.

“Raga, look!” pointed Tondi at a crowd. “Try approaching the merchant,” he continued. Raga took Tondi's advice by introducing himself and expressing his desire to work for the merchant.

The merchant granted Sampuraga's request. Thanks to the tenacity and honesty always taught by his mother, Sampuraga won the trust of his employer. After a long time, Sampuraga was asked to become the merchant's son-in-law.

“Since the beginning of our meeting, I have always believed that you are a diligent and good young man. I have never met a young man as good as you, would you like to be my son-in-law?” asked the master expressing his wish. “I would gladly marry your daughter,” Sampuraga said happily. “Soon I will be very rich!” said Sampuraga. Tondi, who heard this, was stunned because he caught the arrogant tone of his words.

The news of Sampuraga's marriage to a noble princess quickly spread throughout the country, including his mother who was unsure of the truth. She traveled step by step to reach the land of Pidoli in Mandailing.

Upon arriving in the land of Pidoli, the old woman was greeted by the sound of gondang sambilan, indicating a festive occasion. She was surprised to see a young man she recognized sitting side by side with a beautiful princess.

Sampuraga's mother broke through the front row of the crowd and shouted her son's name. “That's Umak's voice...” whispered Tondi, who was accompanying Sampuraga. “Ah, no way!” argued Sampuraga when he heard a familiar voice.

“Sampuraga, it's me, your umak, son!” exclaimed his mother. Tondi repeatedly reassured Sampuraga but Sampuraga was suddenly embarrassed and angry. “You ugly old woman! How dare you. My Umak has been dead for a long time!” said Sampuraga.

“How dare you Sampuraga! How dare you disown your umak,” his mother hissed. “Bow down Raga! Ro ma ho mangido maaf selagi mangolu umakmu (Come you son apologize while your mother lives),” ordered Tondi. However, Sampuraga called the guards to chase his mother away.

After leaving the party with tears in her eyes, Sampuraga's mother prayed, “God, if the young man is really Sampuraga then teach him a lesson. For the greatest sin is to disobey one's parents.”

The sky seemed to change suddenly until lightning struck each other. Rain fell heavily followed by the sound of thunder. All the invitees including Sampuraga and his wife tried to run for their lives. Unfortunately, the place sank in no time.

Sampuraga's party venue turned into a pool of extremely hot water. The locals believed that everything was the incarnation of Sampuraga's wedding party that was cursed. The local people then named the place as “Kolam Sampuraga”.

Dear David,

How are you? I hope this email finds you well and ready for a good story! I wanted to tell you about an adventure that I had recently, which I thought you may find funny!

Last Friday, I went to the park with my brother and friend Tony. It was a beautiful sunny day and everyone was having fun. Everything was going well until I decided to walk near the little pond. I didn’t notice the very slippery ground so I ended up slipping and falling down! Everyone turned to look at me. I was so embarrassed, but luckily, I didn’t injure myself.

But my misfortune didn’t end there. As we were walking home from the park, I tripped over a small rock. You can imagine what happened next…I fell again and this time I injured my leg. As it turned out, I sprained my ankle and had to go to the doctor! I am now recovering in bed, but my ankle is still in pain!

Anyway, I hope you had a better weekend than me! Haha! Please write back soon, I’m looking forward to your news!

Love,

Theano

Children of certain very naive clan were taught by ignorant mullah. He was illiterate and couldn’t even read in Uzbek. He gave every boy a paper with some lines scratched. The lesson he instructed the, was as follows:
— The price for wedding is the horse.
— The birth of child is great happiness and is followed with great reward.
— The price for giving a name is a strong horse.
— The price for circumcision is three camels.
— The price for pardoning sins is five camels.
Once some other mullah who was wise and literate visited that aul. When he entered madrasah, illiterate mullah start talking to some boy as if teaching him a lesson, though indeed he was addressing the other mullah:
— There is no need to talk much, who needs this chatting? I have fifteen camels and one horse. The half is mine and other half will be yours.

B
One Tatar once run out from his house on midnight not even taking a hat. He was followed by his scared wife and kinds. Tatar run first, as fast as he could, broke into his neighbor’s house and started looking for the best place to hide.
“What happened?” — the neighbor asked him.
Tatar gathered his breath for a moment and told his story, “For a very long time imps and jinns have been dwelling in my house. Every night when we go to bed, shaitans[19] summon on our roof, they play there, and bump and knock through all the night. I have summoned mullahs to my home for several times already, they said lot of prayers and I spent lot of money, but I still can’t get rid of them. This night imps started run and bump as they do it usually; I lay sleepless also. Suddenly one jinn broke through the roof and jump right upon me. I got up, passed over him and run away. When I was running, I accidentally touched his horns. Apyrai, I didn’t even know shaitans have got horns!
The neighbor was a man wise, so he said, “Let’s go to your house with lantern and take a look at it in the light.
They have asked three or four men with them and went to Tatar’s house. When they entered, they saw that the roof was made of bulrush and was not very sound, and in the middle of the roof there was a hole. Then they looked around the house, and in the corner they saw a nanny goat. It was lying calmly and chewed something.
In a while they heard little goatlings crying on the roof. The goat also heard it, it got up and begun to bleat. Goatlings then descended from the roof through the hole as well, and joined their mother. It turned out, that the nanny goat and goatlingsbelonged to that Tatar and his neighbors. In the nights they came to eat hay, with which the roof was covered, and played there. The nanny goat, that was found in the house, was simply too big, so it broke down inside, leaving the hole in the roof.

Dear David,

How are you? I hope this email finds you well and ready for a good story! I wanted to tell you about an adventure that I had recently, which I thought you may find funny!

Last Friday, I went to the park with my brother and friend Tony. It was a beautiful sunny day and everyone was having fun. Everything was going well until I decided to walk near the little pond. I didn’t notice the very slippery ground so I ended up slipping and falling down! Everyone turned to look at me. I was so embarrassed, but luckily, I didn’t injure myself.

But my misfortune didn’t end there. As we were walking home from the park, I tripped over a small rock. You can imagine what happened next…I fell again and this time I injured my leg. As it turned out, I sprained my ankle and had to go to the doctor! I am now recovering in bed, but my ankle is still in pain!

Anyway, I hope you had a better weekend than me! Haha! Please write back soon, I’m looking forward to your news!

Love,

Theano

STUDENTS THINK FAKE NEWS IS FACT AND ARE USING IT IN THEIR SCHOOLWORK, SAY TEACHERS

Teachers are frustrated that students can’t accept that some stories on social networks are false, while experts suggest that students need better education about online dangers. Students believe that fake news is a fact, and are repeating it in lessons and using it in written work, teachers have warned. More than a third of teachers say their students have used false information that they found online, according to a survey by a teacher’s union.

The union’s general secretary Chris Keates said that the information was "worrying" and it showed that internet companies have a lot of power to influence people’s opinions, especially young people. International education experts are becoming more worried about the situation and say that teachers will need to teach children how to spot fake news. Others were frustrated that students didn’t believe that news they had seen on Facebook and other social media sites was not true, even when the problem was explained to them. One teacher said that students often thought that fake news sites were real, and also that anything that President Donald Trump said was a fact. Last week, German officials said they would give fines of up to 50 million euro to social networks if they didn’t take down illegal fake news posts. The new law would give social networks 24 hours to delete or block the content and seven days to concentrate on more complicated cases. Commenting on the results of the survey, Ms. Keates said that she was worried about the trend, particularly because many young people have never known a world without internet, and are less able to judge whether information that they read online is real or fake. She added that: "It is important for children and young people to be made aware that not everything they see and read online is real."

She said that teachers are trying to help educate students about using false information, but added that it was important for internet providers and websites to take responsibility for any material that is available, and also to deal with people who misuse their services. Last month, Andreas Schleicher, the director of education and skills at OECD (The Organization of Economic co-operation and Development) said that in the modern age, being able to tell the difference between what is real and what is fake is a critical skill. He added that: "This is something that we believe schools can do something about."
