In this issue

I had always thought of typhoons as being something bad. After all, they destroy houses, take away lives and shatter the stability of the lives of people, don’t they?

Yet, one man who had lived through Super Typhoon Haiyan, has something quite different to say. Typhoon Haiyan has taught him to learn to live life, he says, to make the most of the one life he has been given. We feature his story in this issue, to remind us that after every storm comes a little sunshine and maybe even a rainbow.

Speaking of good things, did you know that including garlic in your meals can help your digestion and ginger lozenges can soothe sore throats? And I bet you never knew that chocolates could be the key to good health. Well, believe it, as we tell you how chocolate can not only help you maintain your blood pressure but might also make you smarter!

Smart is not smart enough till an ingenious idea is realised: be inspired by three young inventors who invented products to solve everyday problems, right at about the same age as you are now.

In this issue, we also uncover some strange truths, from the celebration of World Toilet Day to how one school fell under the spell of the laughing ‘curse’.

Finally, journey with us to the birthplace of Genghis Khan, as our travel writer takes us to the world’s biggest desert, the Gobi Desert, in Mongolia.

Enjoy the read!

Inspire Magazine Description:

Publisher: ilovereading.sg-pte-ltd

Category: Education

Language: English

Frequency: Quarterly

!nspire is akin to a ‘tonic’ to inspire lower-secondary students to love reading, and to be inspired to better themselves. The slew of interesting articles that cover a range of topics in each issue provide students with more than just entertainment, serving to tickle their intellectual curiosity and kindle a love for lifelong reading and learning.

Content in each issue include fiction and non-fiction articles on a range of topics like Gaia (environment), In Shape (sports and fitness), Sci-Tech (Science and Technology) and Strange Truths. We also have a cover story in each issue, which could be anything from an interview of a determined athlete who beat all odds to a true account of a man who lost his home in Typhoon Haiyan.

Regular features in every issue include Student’s Corner (published students’ essays, both as model and for tweaking), Bon Voyage (exotic travel experiences by our globe-trotting travel writer), A Leaf Out of a Book (an excerpt from a novel), Language Buzz (language games) and Workout (student worksheets). Fun facts and pictorial idioms dot our magazines too, injecting more fun in reading.

Accompanied by thought-provoking questions, word banks and sources for further reading or viewing (YouTube video links), !nspire strives to make every student more well-read and knowledgeable, and a better critical thinker.

Any student who is looking for inspiration to better himself, both emotionally and intellectually, would find !nspire indispensable.
