Text 1 Whales are sea-living mammals. They therefore breathe air but cannot survive on land. Some species are very large indeed and the blue whale, which can exceed 30 m in length, is the large animal to have live on earth. Superficially, the whale looks rather like a fish, but there are important differences in its external structure; its tail consists of a pair of broad, flat horizontal paddles ( the tail of a fish is vertical) and it has a single nostril on top of its large, broad head. The skin is smooth and shinny and beneath it lies a layer of fat ( blubber). This is up to 30 cm in thickness and serves to conserve heat and body fluids. Text 2 American black bears appear in a variety of colours despite their name. In the eastern part of their range, most of these bears have shiny black fur, but in the west they grow brown, red or even yellow coats. To the north, the black bear is actually gray or white in colour. Even in the same littler, both brown and black furred bears may be born. Black bears are the smallest of all American bears, ranging in length from five to six feet, weighing from three hundred to five hundred pounds. Their eyes and ears are small and their eyesight and hearing are not as good as their sense of smell. Like all bears, the black bear is timid, clumsy and rarely dangerous, but if attacked, most can climb trees and cover ground at great speeds. When angry or frightened, it is a formidable enemy. 2 Choose one of the following pictures.

All of these levels of governments are necessary. This is so for a number of reasons First, The federal government is necessary for the big things. They keep the economy in order and look after things like defense. Similarly, the state governments look after the middle sized things. For example they look after law and order, preventing things like vandalism in schools. Finally, local governments look after the small things They look after things like collecting rubbish, otherwise everyone would have diseases Thus, for the reasons above we can conclude that the three levels of government are necessary. 2.

Choose the correct answer! The Emperor’s New Clothes Many years ago there lived an emperor who cared only about his clothes and about showing them off. One day he heard from two swindlers that they could make the finest suit of clothes from the most beautiful cloth. This cloth, they said, also had the special capability that it was invisible to anyone who was either stupid or not fit for his position. Being a bit nervous about whether he himself would be able to see the cloth, the emperor first sent two of his trusted men to see it. Of course, neither would admit that they could not see the cloth and so praised it. All the townspeople had also heard of the cloth and were interested to learn how stupid their neighbors were. The emperor then allowed himself to be dressed in the clothes for a procession through town, never admitting that he was too unfit and stupid to see what he was wearing. For he was afraid that the other people would think that he was stupid. Of course, all the townspeople wildly praised the magnificent clothes of the emperor, afraid to admit that they could not see them, until a small child said: "But he has nothing on"! This was whispered from person to person until everyone in the crowd was shouting that the emperor had nothing on. The emperor heard it and felt that they were correct, but held his head high and finished the procession. 01. Nia : Who told the Emperor that they could make the finest suit clothes?

Cheetahs are members of the cat family and are the world’s fastest land animals. They inhabit open grasslands and scrub in Africa, southern Asia and Middle East. Cheetahs are often mistaken for leopards and have many similar features. Their distinguishing marks are the long, teardrop-shaped lines on each side of the nose from the corner of the eyes to the mouth. The animals have muscular and powerful bodies which are aerodynamically perfect for short, fast runs. Their bendy backs keep the body flexible as they sprint. They can accelerate from standing to 40 mph in three strides and to a full speed of 70 mph within seconds. Cheetah’s feet are like running shoes and have grips and spikes to dig into the ground. The grips are special ridges on the animal’s footpads and the claws act as spikes. These claws stay out all the time. This is different from other cats, whose claws tuck away in special sheaths in their paws. Cheetah are carnivores and eat gazelle and small antelope. A long tail helps the cheetah keep its balance as it serves after its prey, using large eyes that point forward to judge distance accurately. Once the cheetah has pounched, the victim is gripped by the throat to stop it breathing. However, the cheetah has weak jaws and small teeth and cannot always protect its kills or its young, especially if tired out after a run. Female cheetahs gave birth to an average of three young that they rear by themselves. Once fully grown, the animals usually live alone, though males sometimes form small groups. Most cheetahs live about twelve years. Cheetah are now an endangered species and many conservationists are trying to help protect the habitats of these interesting creatures. 01.

They belong to the Bovidae family, like domestic cattle and the wild buffalo of Africa and Asia. The oldest known bison fossils have been found in China and the Himalayan foothills, where an animal with all the essential feature of the genus lived a million years ago. They evolved rapidly and spread over most of the Northern Hemisphere in Europe and Siberia. During one of the Ice Ages, the sea level dropped, exposing a land bridge across the Bering Strait, allowing the faunas of Asia and North America to intermingle. Very early, the steppe bison moved eastward to the North American continent. 1. What is the topic of the paragraph? A. The spread of bison from China and Himalayas to North America B.

Rabbits live in burrows in the ground. Each burrow is the home of a single family. The first fossils which can be attributed to this family came from North America but now they are found in every part of the world. Compared to its small body rabbit has large-sized ears. A rabbit is a weak and timid animal and is always surrounded by many enemies. Therefore nature has gifted it with large ears to help it to hear even the fun of drop sound. The large area of the ear catches almost every sound wave produced in the air and transfers them into the inner ear. This makes the rabbit to detect its enemies in time and run to safety zones. You must have noticed that a rabbit washes its ears by repeatedly licking its forepaws and rubbing them over the surface of its ears. It does this in order to keep its ears clean and also to take into its mouth natural oil which surrounds the ear surface. This oil is important in forming vitamin D which is necessary for the growth of healthy bones. If the rabbit is not allowed to form this, it will develop rickets.

Teens use slang to show their independence from their parents, and give them and their friends a language they can call their own. Slang sometime allows them to communicate without outsiders understanding, or to show off that they belong to a particular group. Teens like to use slang words for several reasons. Firstly, they use slang to show their individuality. Daily teen conversations can be incomprehensible to many parents and adults. Influenced by MTV, hip-hop culture and the popularity of e-mail, teenagers shorten words, stretch definitions and pronounce term with a different style. The way talk shows their confidence. Secondly, they use slang because it is easier to say. They might talk the way they do with word like "coz" for "because" and "holla" for "hello" and other expressions because the words are cool and easier to use, not because they are lazy. Finally, they use slang for speed and usefulness, and little humor of the day. Slang flows quicker than standard language. Slang can color their vocabulary and sentences, so that they don't seem boring. Thus, from the reasons above, it can be concluded that teens use slang words because using their own terms is the easiest way to make the world of their own. 7. Slang is commonly liked by … A. students B. adult C. teens D. children E. young and children 8. Teens prefer using slang because … A. they want their conversation to be comprehensible to others B. they do not want other people to understand what they are speaking C. teens must be different from other groups of people D. teens do not like to speak usual language E.

Firstly, books are relatively expensive in Indonesia. Publishers claim that the price of raw materials and the production cost of books are high and keep increasing. Therefore, books are sold expensively; and consequently, most students can not afford them. Secondly, if we browse the book shelves at book sore, it is not easy to find real high quality books. Some books with good topics may have plain and boring designs, while there are also books which look good but the contents are almost not worth-reading. Thirdly, and quite unfortunately, nowadays there are many kinds of activities other than reading, and young people prefer doing them. These include watching youth soap operas on TV, listening to music and songs with meaningless lyrics or just hanging out at shopping malls. Such activities clearly do not offer as much learning as the book reading habit does. And, clearly they forget saying “a book is the window to the world”. In conclusion, if we want to increase reading habit among Indonesian students we can begin by lowering the price of books, increasing the quality of the books and motivating students that reading is more beneficial than any other activities. 12. One of the causes of low reading habit among Indonesian students is because of … A. Low quality of book. B. Difficulty in finding good books and book stores. C.

The word browse has the same meaning with … A. arrange d. observe B. look through E. choose C. open Text 1 ( for questions number 1 – 6 ) One day in a village lived an old grandmother.

Pesticides are commonly used, but this may cause many problems.

It moves again and again, strongly and sharply. Concrete bridges fall, building away and collapse, and the falling debris traps people in the street. Most earthquakes do little harm, but a few kill many people and cause enormous destruction. We now have a very accurate map of all the earthquake centres of the world. Earthquakes do not occur in all parts of the world but are limited to certain areas or belts. The rim of the Pacific Ocean is the most important of the belts. A second belt stretches from China and Southeast Asia to the Mediterranean areas of Africa and Europe. A third earthquake belt is the long ridge that lies under the Atlantic Ocean. There is one type of earthquake disasters that little can be done about. This is the disaster produced by seism tic sea waves, or tsunamis (these are often called tidal waves, but the name is incorrect). They have nothing to do with tides, in certain areas, notably off t ‘tsunamis’, meaning ‘harbour waves’. 28. The earthquakes’ centre of the world is/are ... A. Pacific Ocean B.

But the usage of this energy is still being debated. Scientists and engineers have found many uses of nuclear energy, especially in producing electricity. The energy released by nuclei creates large amount of heat. This heat can be used to make steam, and the steam can be used to generate electricity. Engineers have invented devices called nuclear reactor to produce and control nuclear energy. Furthermore, the nuclear plant uses much less fuel than does a fossil fuel plant. And also the uranium, unlike fossil fuel, does not release chemical or solid pollutant into the air during use. Not all the people are excited with the existence of this energy. They argue that nuclear plants cost more to build than fossil fuel plants and they are potentially hazardous, for example: in 1979 accident in the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, and afterwards, the 1986 accident at Chernobyl, in Ukraina, then, a part of Soviet Union. In addition, uranium continuous to produce dangerous radiation long after it has been used up as a fuel for nuclear energy. The problem of safety storing uranium wastes has not yet been solved. As a result of this controversy, the scientists and engineers should find the way to make the nuclear plants as safe as possible. This plant must meet certain government regulation that fossil fuel plants do not have to meet. For example, a nuclear plant must satisfy government authorities that it can quickly and automatically deal with any kind of emergency. E.
