What I have learned so far at university



’’What I have learned at university in the last semester”


          In the last semester I became very open-minded and curious by learning about many topics and subjects. I learned of some study skills, where I discovered the basics of learning techniques, among others. A also met English Literature and its marvelous poems, dramas and short stories. The classical writers knew something that we do not know these days. I practiced English Grammar and English idioms. For this reason, my vocabulary improved and my communication skills developed. Besides that, I analyzed lots of literary works, and I perceived the way how I can define the genre of a piece of writing. I was entirely impressed by Classical Hungarian Literature and that was my favourite subject. These lectures and seminars were mostly about practice and lexical knowledge, but I have also learned about behavioral rules and moral values, and most of all about myself, which was the most exciting and the hardest section of my learning process. All in all, my last semester was very useful and –at the same time– instructive, so as a result I learned a great deal.

The Hungarian education system - Nils Holgerssons

Outline Thesis: The main problem is the amount of material, because it leads to numerous other problems. I.                     Disadvantageous 1.        Pupils cannot catch up 2.        Teachers have no time to explain II.                  The lack of freetime 1.        Spending too much time indoors 2.        Motivation is lost Conclusion: The Board of Education should reduce the amount of material.     If you could change just one thing about the Hungarian education system, what would it be and why?

Recognizing lies through nonverbal communication - Cseh Szabina

Outline Thesis: There are behavioral clues to deceit we can observe that are evident in face, body, and voice. I.                    The face 1.       “The wise monkeys” 2.       Looking aside 3.       Deceitful smiles II.                 The body 1.       Fidgeting near the neck 2.       Folded arms 3.       Crossed legs 4.       Pointing our toes III.              The voice 1.       Swallow voice and our lips 2.       Higher pitch and lower tone 3.       The speed of speech Conclusion: Lies can be noticed through nonverbal clues, but these clues do not always hide deceit.

It is something that people deliberately choose to do to mislead others or to get something that through other means cannot – or hardly can – be reached (Ekman 163). However, deceiving others can be recognized if one observes the telling clues that cannot alwa

Black of the Night or Nature's Green? Health Effects of Green and Black Tea

Black of the Night or Nature’s Green? Health Effects of Green and Black Tea The vast variety of different types of tea can be overwhelming. Every person in every culture has their own favoured kind of tea – White Tea, Black Tea, Oolong Tea, Pu-erh Tea and so on – but their short and long-term health effects are not always the same. Over the years countless studies have been published by scientists and physicians about the health effects of different teas trying to prove one's or the other's superiority. In this paper I will examine the health effects of Black and Green Teas and provide arguments for the beneficial effects of drinking Green Tea. Black Tea is a type of tea that is made of Camellia sinensis leaves and which is more oxidized and stronger than other tea types. It is an effectual antioxidant because of its free-radical scavenging and metal-chelating ability (Sharma et al., 379–404). For this reason, it eliminates inflammation and prevents the formation of c
