I
distinctly remember having cried on my first day at a primary school. My mother
brought me to school, handed me over to a teacher and was told to leave. She
was not allowed to accompany me, even she was not allowed to stand near the
window. It really made me worried.
Almost
immediately after my mother left, I started to cry. Then the guy sitting beside
me followed suit and soon a few of the children in the class were in tears. The
teacher was not to be compromised. She was obviously an old hand at handling
cry babies. She knew exactly what to do. She ignore us. Soon, we realized that
we were not going to get our mothers back. So, we settled down to some serious
coloring.
We were
very happy about one thing though we all could speak to the teacher freely.
Besides, we spend the whole day coloring. And the happiest day was when I had a
break. My mother was there with food.
At the end
of the day we had colored no less than ten pictures. We brought them home to
show our parents.

How do We Get Energy from Water?
From high
in the hills, water flows down in rivers and falls its way to the sea. This
mass of movement can be used to generate energy to work a machine, with the
water falling on the blades of the wheel, making it turn. This wheel is
connected to a machine like a mill wheel, grinding corn.
In ancient
times, the use of hydraulic or water energy was not used very much. But from
the Middle Ages onwards, it increased as well as grinding cereals, it went on
to weaving, paper making, metal-working and so on.
Then came
the discovery of electricity and water came to be used to produce electrical
energy in hydro-electric stations. Dams were built to create artificial lakes
from which water fell on the turbines os a station at the foot of a dam.
Like the
old water mills, when then water makes the turbines turn, they set the
generator working which produces the electricity.
28. The purpose of the text is…..
A.
to explain the use of water
for ancient people.
B.
to explain how people use
water to produce energy.
C.
to describe how electricity
is produced.

built mill wheels.

to persuade people to
utilize water energy.

To improve
comport and cleanliness at our school, a number of dustbins should be
increased.
When we
look at classrooms, school corridors and schoolyard, there are papers, mineral
water cup, straws, and napkins here and there. The condition of uncleanness and
discomfort really hinders learning and teaching environment. Litters thrown
carelessly cause disease, especially empty plastic cups or glasses. They can be
filled out with water coming from the rain. This can be placed for dengue
mosquitoes to spread out. Besides, these rubbish can deteriorate the scene.
Well painted wall and green school yard do not mean anything if litters are scattered
everywhere.
Anyway I
notice that most of the students in our school have responsibilities for their school
environment. They put their litters on the proper places. But some are not
diligent enough to find the dustbins. The number of dustbins in our school are
not enough. More dustbins should be put beside each of steps, outside of the
classroom, and some more along the corridors. Probably one dustbin should be in
every ten meters. So when students want to throw away their litter, they can
find dustbins easily.
When school
is equipped with sufficient dustbins, we do not have problems of filth and discomfort
any more. Our school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.
31. What is the writer’s intention? To …….readers to do something
good.
A.
inform
B.
explain
C.
describe
D.
entertain
E.
persuade.
32. What is the writer’s
argument on a sufficient number of dustbins?
A.
They can prevent litters.
B.
They can save janitor’s
energy.
C.
Students are asked to clean
them.
D.
They make school
environment neat.
E.
Students can throw garbage
away easily.
33. What is the writer’s suggestion?
A.
To buy more dustbins.
B.
To hire more gardeners.
C.
To use dustbins
efficiently.
D.
To ask parents to give more
dustbins.
E.
To ask students to clean

“The Blind Side”
This is not
a film which is going to play well outside the United States. It is a true
story of how a tough Memphis mother a wealthy family (Sandra Bullock as Leigh
Anne Tuohy) befriends a huge, homeless and ill-educated black man (Quinton
Aaron as Michael Oher), enabling him ultimately to become a highly successful
professional American football player. Of cause, outside the U.S.A, a few people will have heard of Oher or have
much interest in American football. Even the title - a footballing term - is
unhelpful. Furthermore, as a narrative, it has the additional problems of being
slow and lacking dramatic tension.
Having said
all this, it is a find performance by Bullock who has to adopt a Southern
accent for a role which sees her playing a much more assertive and less cute
character than is usually her wont. It won her the Academy Award for the Best
Actress. And, in its own way, the tale is inspirational, showing that with some
tender loving care (and in this case a lot of money) the most unlikely and
ill-equipped can be enabled to succeed.
34. What is the film about?
A.
The portrait of American
wealthy families.
B.
A more assertive and less
cute character.
C.
The life of a famous
American football player.
D.
The problem between the
poor and the rich in America.
E.
A tough rich woman making
friend with a homeless and uneducated black man.
35. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the text?
A.
The story takes place in
Memphis.
B.
The film is created based
on a true story.
C.
Oher is a successful soccer
player.
D.
Outside the U.S.A only a
few people have known Oher.
E.
Sandra Bullock won the
Academy Award for the Best Actress.
36. What does the writer think about the story of the film?
A.
It is full of dramatic
tension.

It is lack of unexpected
scenes.
C.

plot.
D.
It is best recommended to
watch.
E.
It is inspiring and showing
love for others.

Every day
we experience traffic congestion, especially in big cities. The streets are
filled with old and new vehicles. Many of the new-cars owners use subsidized
fuel. Do you agree with this stance?
Some people
who agree with the attitude say that the fuel is subsidized by the government
for all the Indonesian people. So, everyone is entitled to use it. They also
argue that new vehicles taxes are very high. These vehicles taxes can be uses
to reduce the burden of the government in providing fuel subsidies. That means
balanced, the government subsidizes fuel and new car owners pay high taxes.
On the
other hand, there are many people who disagree with that attitude. They argue
that the percentage of new-vehicles owners are much higher than that of the old
cars. The new-vehicles owners are also considered better off financially
compared to that of the old car owners. That means subsidized fuel is more
widely used by new cars though the new cars owners are wealthy enough to buy
not-subsidized fuel. Thus, the government fuel subsidies are misplaced. Subsidized
fuel should only be for old cars owners who are less well off financially.
In
conclusion, let’s see what the government will do in addressing this condition.
Will the ban on the use of subsidized fuel for cars really be implemented next
year?
37. Which of following statement is NOT TRUE according to the text?
A.
New cars still use
subsidized fuel.

provide new cars with subsidized fuel new year.
C.

have a right to use subsidized fuel.
D.
The government may ban the
use of subsidized fuel for new car owners.
E.
The use of subsidized fuel
will disturb the convenience of new cars.
38. Some people are agree that new car owners can use subsidized
fuel because……
A.
they pay high for
subsidized fuel.
B.
they pay high taxes for
their cars.
C.
old car owners pay lower
taxes for their cars than they do.
D.
subsidized fuel has no
relation to the government’s financial burden.
E.
using high-octane fuel for
new cars may disturb the driving convenience.
39. “So everyone is entitle to use it.” (paragraph 2)
The underlined
word it refers to….
A.
a high tax.

make honey. honey bees live in groups called colonies. Each colony has one
female queen bee, tens of thousands or worker bees, and a few hundred male bees
or drones. Honey bees live in hives. Inside the hive, the bees make a honeycomb
of wax. The honeycomb is a kind of bee apartment building full of six-sided
rooms in which the bees raise young and store food.
The
queen bee lays thousands of eggs. Worms look like larvae hatch from the eggs.
Each larva becomes a pupa, which looks partly like a larva and partly like an
adult bee. The pupa then becomes an adult bee. Worker bees feed the young,
clean, and guard the hive, and fly to and from flowers. They collect tiny
grains of pollen and a sweet liquid called nectar for food. The pollen is food
for young bees. Worker bees use the nectar to make honey. Without bees bringing
pollen from flower to flower, many plants can’t make seeds.
