Drinking Cofee has Health Benefits
Drinking coffee may not harm people, Tea, coffee and soda are few bevarages which contain drug called
caffeine. In its natural state ,caffeine, a silky crystalline substance, is a white or yellow powder, which is bitter tasting
and adorless.why should I say that? I propose some arguments as fellows:
First, we drink cofee to make us stay awake, because coffee consist of cafeine. Second, drinking coffee is good for
your helath, because it can expidate our urination. Third, some therapeitic uses caffeine to help anagesics work more
effeciently, to relieve depression to drug addcits and to kill skin figures
Thus if we want to say that first, we may drink coffee, without feeling scare of bad impact of the caffeine; second,
do not drink too much; third, drink cofee for therapeutic purposes, at leat we need not to addict to coffee.

Based on the definitions stated previously, the writer sees blended learning as a model of teaching and learning activity which combines face-to-face and online
learning. The term of blended learning is used to describe any course that incorporates
the web into the curriculum, Ko and Rossen defined blended as falling into three subcategories:
a. Web enhanced, these are courses with associated web sites that contain
material relevant to the course the syllabus, a list of web based resources, a course calendar, a reading list, lecture notes, or an electronic bulletin board
where student can post question of a general nature. Instructor often uses web- enhanced resources to reduce the flow of paperwork and to offer their students
an optional method of obtaining course related information.
b. Media enhanced, courses where relevant course material such as videotape
lectures or associated graphics are posted to a website for use by students as a form of review. Often such sites recreate the activities in a classroom, such as
