several newspapers reveal the evidence that many candidates for the provincial legislative board

To improve comfort 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
cups, straws, and napkins here and there. The condition of uncleanliness and discomfort really
hinders learning and teaching environment. Litters thrown carelessly cause disease, especially
empty plastic cups or glasses. They can be placed for dangue mosquitoes to spread out. Besides,
this rubbish can deteriorate the scene. Well-painted wall and green schoolyard 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 numbers of dustbins in our schools are not enough. More dustbins should be put
beside each of steps, outside of the classrooms, and some more along the corridors. Probably one
dustbin should be in every ten meters. So when students want to throw away their litters, they can
find the dustbins easily.
When school is equipped with sufficient dustbins, we do not have problems of filth and
discomfort anymore. Our school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.
What is the writer’s intention? To … readers do something good.
a. inform
b. explain
c. describe
d. entertain
e. persuade
22. According to the writer, more dustbins … in every ten meters.

To Whom it may concern,
“Indonesian Idol” is an annual Indonesian televised singing competition which has been airing
on RCTI. Part of the Idol franchasie, it originated from the British reality program “Pop Idol”.
“Indonesian Idol” is a combination of a reality show and a talent search show. Unfortunately, in
spite of the fact that this show gives the opportunity to anyone who has talent and capable to be
promoted as an idol, I find some weaknesses in this program.
Sometimes, the winner is not guaranteed to have a quality of a good singer because the winner
is merely determined by public voting by phone and sms. Most of these voters do not consider the
jury’s comments on the contestant’s performance because they would prefer focusing on the
contestant’s physical appearance and personality rather that his/her singing quality.
As a consequence, after the competition is over, only few of the winners get the chance to be
professional singers. Furthermore, most of them only have little experience in the show business,
while being professional singers need a long process and time.
My suggestion is that “Indonesian Idol” should not determine the winner based on the
contestant’s popularity. The singing quality of each contestant should be the first priority.
Yours truly,
Pinky Baboe-Semarang
“They would prefer focusing on the contestant’s physical appearance and personality rather that
his/her singing quality.”
a. They like the contestant’s physical appearance and personality better than the quality of a good
singer.
b. They like the quality of a good singer to the contestant’s physical appearance and personality.
c. They prefer the quality of a good singer to the contestant’s physical appearance and personality.
d. The prefer the quality of a good singer and talented singer.
e. The don’t like the physical appearance and the personality.
28. How “Indonesian Idol” determines the winner is considered subjective because of the following
reasons, except …
a. The winner is determined by public voting by phone and sms.
b. The winner is determined by the physical appearance.
c. The winner is determined by the physical appearance.
d. The winner is determined by the participant’s appearance.
e. The winner is determined by the contestant’s personality.

Although they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamin, mineral, and high-quality protein, eggs also
contain a high level of cholesterol, one of the major cause of heart disease. One egg yolk, in fact,
contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has
caused egg sales to drop abruptly in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of
several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These eggs
substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the
advantage of having lower cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One
disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative
to regular eggs is a new type of eggs, sometimes called designer eggs. These eggs are produced by
hens that are fed low-fat diets consisting of ingredient such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of
their diets, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular
eggs. Yet, the producers of these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in
humans.
Egg producers claim that their pproduct has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to
back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol
levels have brought mixed results. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant
of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive tocholesterol
derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fast stimulate the
body’s production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake
of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not
help reduce the blood cholesterol level.
31. Eggs provide a lot of substances which are good for people’s health; however, they …
a. supply vitamins

Cheating was one of the bad habits that I couldn’t get rid of. One day, during a test, I finished
faster than my best friend who sat next to me. Amazingly, I didn’t cheat on that exam because I had
really studied the night before and I could answer all of the questions quite easily. Seeing that I had
finished, my friend signaled me asking me to cheat for her! She indicated she didn’t have the nerve
to do it herself. I told her to look out of the teacher while I took a peek at my note book while I was
doing that. Suddenly, out of nowhere, someone pinched my ear and I heard the whole class
laughed at me. Yep, the teacher was standing behind us and had watched the whole scene. Needless
to say, I never cheated again.

Sometimes we see chimpanzees doing human things. They drink from cups, or take photos.
Why? Chimpanzees belong to the same family of apes as the huge gorillas of Africa and the red
orangutan of Southeast Asia, but scientist think that chimpanzees are the most intelligent.
They come from the rain forest and grassland of Central and West Africa; they have got long
black hair and they haven’t got tails. An adult male is about 85 centimeters tall and weighs about forty
kilos.
Chimpanzees live in large groups of twenty-five to fifty animals, and one male chimpanzee is the
leader. They spend most of their time on the ground but they also climb trees to find food. They eat
mainly fruit and insects, and sometimes they eat meat such as monkeys. When they hunt, the males
work together. The they share the food with the whole family group.
But the greatest sign of the chimpanzee’s intelligence is that is makes and uses tools. It pokes a
stick into an ants’ nest, then pulls out the stick and eat the ants. It also uses stones to crack nuts, and it
chews leavers to make a sponge to mop up water. Some chimpanzees can even communicate with
humans by using sign language or a computer.

Some of the most world’s finest roads make use of bodies of water. They are called canals.
Canals are man made waterways. They are usually straight and narrow. But they are filled with
water. They connect rivers and lakes, oceans so that boats and ships can go from one to the other.
Most canals are used for transportation. Barges, boats, and ships carry goods over canals. Some
are used also reduce the cost of shopping goods and offer travel short cuts.
Canals even go over hills and mountains. But you know that water can’t flow up a hill; so how can
the water and boats in a canal go up a hill?
Something called a lock is used. It is a giant tank. The tank is big enough to hold a long boat. The
boat floats into the tank, and the doors behind it are closed to lock the boat. The boat floats into the

tank, and the doors behind it are closed to lock the boat in there. Then more water is let into the tank.
When the tank is full of water is let into the tank. When the tank is full of water, the tank door in front
of the boat is opened and the boat floats out. The boat floats higher and higher part of the water rises. It
floats either out into a higher part of the canal or into another tank or lock, which will lift it still higher.
To go down the hill on the other side, the boat enters a lock that is full of water. As the water is
let out, the boat will float lower and lower. So locks make it possible for boats or ships to move from
one water level to another.

A mangrove is a tropical marine tree or shrub of the genus Rhizopora. Mangroves have special
aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots that enable them to thrive in brackish water (brackish water is
salty, but not as salty as sea water).
There are several species of mangrove trees found all like to be very close to a large fresh water
source (such as a river). Some species have roots covered with sea water everyday during high tide.
Other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the ecosystem.

Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leaves above the surface of the water. Yet they also need to
be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves. There are three types of mangrove
roots that play an important role for it:
1) support roots which directly pierce the soil;
2) level-growing roots which twist upwards and downwards, with the upward twists emerging on the
water surface;
3) level-growing roots whose downward twist (sub-roots) appear on the water surface.
Any part of a root that appears above the water flows oxygen to the plant under water surface. As
the soil begins to build up, these roots produce additional roots that become embedded in the soil.

Petroleum pproducts, such as gasoline, kerosene, home heating oil, residual fuel oil and
lubricating oils, come from one source. Crude oil is found below the earth surface, as well as under
large bodies of water, from a few hundred feet below the surface to as deep as 25.000 feet into the
earth interior. Crude oil is obtained by drilling a hole through the earth, but sometimes more dry
holes are drilled than those producing oil. Pressure at the source, or pumping, forces the crude oil
to the surface.
Crude oil wells flow at varying rates, from ten to thousands of barrels per hour. Petroleum
products vary greatly in physical appearance: thin, thick, transparent, or opaque. Their chemical
compositions are made up of only two elements: carbon and hydrogen, which form compounds
called hydrocarbons. Other chemical elements found in the union classified as impurities. Trace
elements are also found, but these are of such minute quantities that they are disregarded.

These days, everybody buys computer software. Consumers purchase all kinds of software, from
games for the kids to highly sophisticate professional programs and everything in between. Computer
software has become part of everybody’s daily life, and this is just one more thing adding to an ever-
growing problem.
The excessive packaging on computer software is joining catchy wrappers, durable plastic and
cardboard boxes, plastic jugs, and other types of packaging in the trash. Everything we buy is packaged
in one way or another. When we get our purchases home, we unwrap them and throw the packaging in
the trash. It then ends up in the nation’s garbage dumps.
Communities all around the country are struggling with the problem of where to put all this waste.
Much of this excessive packaging serves only to make the products more attractive to consumers. It
catches the eye but does not really protect the goods from damage.
Environmentalists are asking consumers to say “No!” to wasteful packaging practices. Please
purchase only those products that come with a minimum of packaging or that are packaged in 100%
recycled materials.

The text for questions 45 to 46.
Continued progress in advanced technology is not necessary. Already the technical progress in
our world has caused severe pollution in the air and in the water. Although the technical progress
in previous years has been helpful, recent technology has significantly increased pollution.

Another reason to stop technical progress is that many inventions which were developed for
good causes are now also used for powerful weapons or have been found to have serious side
effects. For example, pesticide put inside particle board to prevent termites has now been found to
be toxic to human life.
Technology does not always bring good effects; for example, computers do much work faster
than man, but then man loses his job to a machine. Because no man can guarantee that technology
will have only good effects and will be used only for the benefit of man, we should delay the
continued development of technology.
The writer’s purpose in writing this paragraph is …
a. To make people implement advanced technology
b. To describe pollution caused by advanced technology
c. To explain what further inventions in technology
d. To explain what further inventions in technology should be made
e. To show how advantageous advanced technology is for human beings
46. Advanced technology has made people’s lives more comfortable; nevertheless …
a. It is useful and beneficial to people
b. Many people are no longer unemployed
c. It help people to kill termites through pesticides
d. It is causing a lot of damage to the environment
e. Many inventions were developed for good causes

Gene Splicing
Genetic research has produced both exciting and frightening possibilities. Scientists are now
able to create new forms of life in the laboratory due to the development of gene splicing.
One the one hand, the ability to create life in the laboratory could greatly benefit mankind. For
example, sources, scientists have developed a method to manufacture it inexpensively in the
laboratory.
Another beneficial application of gene splicing is in agriculture. Scientists foresee the day when
new plants will be devoleped using nitrogen from the air instead from fertilizer. Therefore food
production could be developed to feed the world’s hungry people.
Not everyone is excited about gene splicing, however. Some people feel that it could have
terrible consequences. A laboratory accident, for example, might cause an epidemic of an unknown
disease that could wipe out humanity.
As a result of this controversy, the government as made rules to control genetic experiments.
While some members of the scientific community feel that these rules ae so strict, many other
people feel that they are still not strict enough.
