Unit 2 Natural Disasters / news stories

                        Today I study reading for detailed information about News Stories Natural Disasters. I think The definition of natural disasters is any catastrophic event that is caused by nature or the natural processes of the earth. The severity of a disaster is measured in lives lost, economic loss, and the ability of the population to rebuild.

         All natural disasters cause loss in some way. Depending on the severity of disasters. Falling buildings or trees, freezing to death, being washed away, or heat stroke are just some of the deadly effects. Some disasters cause more loss of life than others, and population density affects the death count as well.

               Then there is loss of property, which affects people’s living quarters, transportation, livelihood, and means to live. However, loss of property is still a problem, and predicting many natural disasters isn’t easy.Scientists, geologists, and storm watchers work hard to predict major disasters and avert as much damage as possible. 

        After that  I think, write the words about natural disaster is very easy. But I think , Talk about natural disaster is  not very difficult. The best way to get into reading is simply to read and read  and read freely. This practice helps me develop a feel for reading. 

                       Finally, my reading strategies is reading English Newspapers from  BBC  News , Fox News, Bangkok post, The Japan News ,New York Time, Global Time, China Daily and News & Record. My attitudes towards the lesson is  not easy. I never feel confident when I am faced with a variety of writing task in and outside of class.
