ACTIVE READING IN TEACHING POETRY IN EFL CLASS
Authors: Wahyuni Delvi
Published: April 2018

Poetry at large does not have the liberty of prose in describing experience to its fullest details. Its nature is to compress experience into compact and condensed language thus reading poetry for the uninitiated can be very challenging. For students of EFL, reading poetry in English can be a very demanding task because they have to get through double barriers, namely: the nature of poetry and English, the language it is written in, to enjoy the experience it tries to convey. Teachers of poetry are also riddled with dillemma as to make their students understand the text they are teaching. The practice of authoritatively telling students what it means will turn poetry class into a uninspiring session where students will  listen to another dreary sermon each time they attend the class and leave them  marvelling whether the teacher’s explanation is within their reach or beyond them. Moreoever, it will do them injustice because this practive will cripple them of the ability in discovering the meaning of the text they are reading on their own. For this reason, this paper proposes active reading as a strategy to help both teachers and students to prevail over challenges posed by poetry in English. Active reading involves a lot of annotating task which will help students to crack open the compact language of poetry and extend it to the extent of students discovering that poetry is just another way to communicate experience through language. Key words: teaching poetry, EFL.

Published: April 2018

This paper reveals an alternative model for teaching reading narrative text using retelling strategy. Retelling is a diagnostic technique teachers use to monitor whether students are aware of text structures and if they are using this knowledge before, during, and after they read.. After reading a variety of texts,  students begin to notice different ways information is presented and different patterns authors use when they write.  They also recognize that the authors use different patterns to organize information. In every narrative text, there are characters, problems, a potential solution, and a final resolution. Effective readers are aware of the text structures authors use and apply this knowledge to predict what the author will write. They can also use their knowledge of the text structure of narrative  to help them remember important details  and to make sense of the story as they read.   Keywords: retelling, narrative texts, strategy, reading comprehension

Forecasting social phenomena and deterministic chaos theory
Authors:   Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan (Poland), Donaj Łukasz
Published: April 2018

Forecasting social phenomena is frequently hin-dered in many respects. It results from the fact that there are strong and multilateral relations between these phenomena and other social phenomena as well as physical and biological (natural) ones. The research discusses a number of forecasting issues in social sciences. The author identifies the possibil-ities of applying the modelling techniques which are not typically used by political scientists and origi-nate from the exact sciences (chaos theory, in par-ticular the deterministic chaos theory) to study so-cial phenomena and processes. On the one hand, more frequent use of various research methods be-ing a part of both exact sciences and humanities is unjustified due to the fact that the scope of these sciences is different. On the other hand, it is treated as an attempt to discover new knowledge, especially in the context of interdisciplinarity and the research on the so-called final theory. Assuming that science has to focus on unanswered questions, it is worth considering whether a prognostic political scientist should use the above-mentioned research methods and apply the deterministic chaos theory’s findings to the phenomena of social (or interfacing) sciences, including economy, logistics and other sciences.

The study deals with the problems of environmental security in the territory of the municipalities of the Belgorod region. The paper presents the findings of sociological surveys conducted in the Belgorod region in order to reveal the ecological status of the territories. The data obtained allow one to assess objectively the current environmental situation in the municipalities and describe the measures being implemented by the government of the Belgorod region to overcome the negative effects of economic activity. The relevance of the study is due to the increasing anthropogenic pressures on the environment in the region. This is associated with higher rates of economic development, including the emergence of new enterprises, the increasing number of municipalities, and agricultural expansion. The research provides the basic criteria for determining an adverse ecological situation in the municipalities as well as the priorities for environmental security in the Belgorod region.

Scientists from various fields of science have observed and interpreted the global economic processes for fifty years. However, the relationship between geoeconomics and psychology is still insufficiently studied. Meanwhile, the principles of the global world order are changing and affecting the national economies as well. Against the background of global changes, the Russian economy is centralized, the signs of planned production are appeared, and the role of state corporations is growing. Changes in economic conditions within the country will affect the living and working environment of everyone. The paper presents the results of an empirical study on the psychological readiness of residents of the North-West region for geoeconomic changes. The authors attempt to discover differences in choosing the behavior strategy in conflict and the generalized motive in people of different ages, sex, and professions. In conclusion, the research determines the relationship between the generalized motive and the preferred behavior strategy in conflict.

Published: April 2018

Considerando o crescimento desordenado da malha urbana na região metropolitana da cidade de Cabedelo/PB, o bioma de Mata Atlântica tem sido fragmentado intensamente, e alterações no microclima local, são perceptíveis pelo aumento das temperaturas. No entanto, estudos visando compreender o papel desta reserva florestal na amenização climática da cidade ainda são inexistentes. Este estudo objetivou verificar a relação entre a FLONA e o microclima de uma área urbanizada na cidade de Cabedelo/PB. A pesquisa parte da hipótese da existência gradiente térmico entre a FLONA e a área urbanizada. Inicialmente foi realizado um levantamento bibliográfico a respeito da temática em questão, seguido da definição dos pontos experimentais localizados dentro da FLONA e na malha urbana da cidade de Cabedelo/PB. Para analisar a existência de um gradiente térmico, foram realizadas coletas de temperatura e umidade relativa do ar, utilizando termohigrômetros durante o período de estiagem da região (dezembro 2016 a janeiro 2017). Três pontos de coletas ficaram alocados dentro da FLONA e um ponto de coleta na malha urbana da cidade. Os resultados revelam a existência de um gradiente térmico que indica uma atenuação gradual da temperatura e aumento da umidade à medida que se avança para o interior da FLONA, destacando também o papel da cobertura vegetal na amenização do clima urbano da cidade de Cabedelo-PB. Isto reforça a importância dos serviços ecossistêmicos prestados pelos fragmentos de Mata Atlântica e a sua necessária conservação.

Published: April 2018

Salmonid alphavirus (SAV), genus Alphavirus, family Togaviridae, is a single-stranded RNA virus affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). It is known to be responsible for pancreas disease (PD) and sleeping disease (SD) which are increasing problems, causing high fish mortality and economic losses in the European aquaculture industry. Pancreas disease was first described in Atlantic salmon in Scotland in 1976 and a similar disease caused by the closely related sleeping disease virus was first described in rainbow trout in France. There have also been reports of salmonid alphavirus infections from other European countries, including Ireland, England, Norway, Germany, Italy, and Spain. Salmonid alphaviruses have been classified into six subtypes (SAV1–6). SAV1 and SAV4–6 cause pancreas disease in Atlantic salmon in Ireland or Scotland, SAV2 is the causative agent of sleeping disease in rainbow trout, and SAV3 has been detected in Atlantic salmon in Norway. The aim of this paper was to summarise current knowledge of infections caused by salmonid alphavirus and diagnostic methods including the newest techniques, and to briefly describe prevention from SAV infections by vaccination.
Ready-to-eat meat products as a source of Listeria monocytogenes

In 2015 in the European Union member states listeriosis caused 270 deaths. Food is the route of transmission in 99% of all human infection cases. Several studies from different countries have shown that the presence of Listeria monocytogenes in food can be as high as 58.3%. One of the most important ways to protect food from these microorganisms is to prevent the spread of the bacteria at processing plants at different stages of food production chain. The ability of L. monocytogenes to survive in extreme conditions and to form biofilms on various surfaces is a significant challenge for food safety. Removal of these bacteria from niches in processing plants is difficult and requires the use of sanitisers and precise equipment cleaning. The presence of L. monocytogenes in processing environment at slaughterhouses, deli meat factories or in retail may be a reason of cross-contamination. Proper hygienic systems applied by workers in food preparing places and knowledge about different routes of spreading of these bacteria may effectively decrease the risk of food contamination. Standardised legal regulations and control of meat product manufacture should be a fundamental way to protect food from L. monocytogenes contamination.
