笠翁对韵1 一东

بَدَأ عَصْر الإِنْتَرْنِت بالسِّتِينَات أو السَبْعِينَات خِلَال الحَرْب البَارِدَة بَين رُوسْيَا وأمْرِيكَا.
طَبعًا بَدَأ فِي الجَيش الأَمْرِيكِي وكَان الهَدَف هو التَوَاصُل مَع السَفَارَات.
بِشَكِل عَام, الإِخْتِرَاعَات أول شِي تَبْدَأ بِالجَيش وبَعْدَين تَنْتَقِل إِلى النَاس.
بِالثَمَانِينَات الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مَسْمُوح بَين النَاس.
وبِالتِسْعِينَات إِنْتَشَر الإنترنت وصَار كَثِير نَاس يِسْتَخْدِمُوه.
وبِبِدَايَة القَرْن الحَالِي الإِنْتَرْنِت وَصَل أَغْلَب البِلَاد تَقْرِيبًا.
حَالِيًا, الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مَوجُود فِي كُل بَيت ومُهِم جِدًا للحَيَاة اليَومِيَة.
وبَعَد كورُونَا كَثِير نَاس صَارُوا يِسْتَخْدِمُوه عَشَان الشُغُل.
وتَقْرِيبًا الإِسْتِغْنَاء عن الإِنْتَرْنِت صَار مُسْتَحِيل.

The IKEA Business Model (upper-intermediate)

Firstly We Have To Dive Into Why People Study When They Do Not Have Any Real Purpose Or Need. 

Many people continue studying a language without a pressing need. Often, it’s because they recognize it’s good for personal development or career prospects, or sometimes they simply have extra time on their hands. In other words, they have nothing better to do. It is alright not to have a clear goal on learning a language. It is a known fact some people go about their lives questioning the very meaning of life itself too. The focus of this episode is to add enjoyment to your language learning because when one does not have a real purpose, staying motivated enough to keep on track then becomes a big challenge. When people pursue activities "because it’s good for them," they may struggle with engagement.  (Deci & Ryan, 2000).
