Hows life. Its been so long I havent heard from you. How
about your holiday? My own holiday was great. Do you know
where I spent my holiday? Just guess! Well you will be
surprised if you know where I went. I went to Karimunjawa
Island. I am finally able to go there. And will share my
experience with you. I am sure you are interested to go there
too.
Karimunjawa Island is a paradise for travelers. That island
has many beautiful beaches, If you go there you must try
snorkel around that island, because the view of coral is really
beautiful. We can enjoy coral at the sea garden too. Another
nice spot is the shark breeding area. We can see many shark
but they are very well tamed. They wont bite you or harm you.
I was swimming around at a pond where the white shark, puffer
fish and another scary animal live. I felt a little bit afraid
because not many tourists went there. But it was alright. It was
very impressing experience. Thats nice holiday, wasnt it? Well
tell me about you holiday. I am looking forward to your e-mail.

Read the text and answer question 20 to 22
A cactus (plural: cacti) is any member of the plant family
Cactaceae, native to the Americas. They are often used as
ornamental plants, but some are also crop plants. Cacti are
grown for protection of property from wild animals, as well as
many other uses.
Cacti are part of the plant order Caryophyllales, which
also include members like beets, gypsophila, spinach,
amaranth, tumbleweeds, carnations, rhubarb, buckwheat,
plumbago, bougainvillea, chickweed and knotgrass.
Cacti are unusual and distinctive plants, which are
adapted to extremely arid and hot environments, showing a
wide range of anatomical and physiological features which
conserve water. Their stems have adapted to become
photosynthetic and succulent, while the leaves have become
the spines for which cacti are well known.
Cacti come in a wide range of shapes and sizes. The
tallest is Pachycereus pringlei, with a maximum recorded
height of 19.2 m, and the smallest is Blossfeldia liliputiana,
only about 1 cm in diameter at maturity. Cactus flowers are
large, and like the spines and branches arise from areoles.
Many cactus species are night blooming, as they are pollinated
by nocturnal insects or small animals, principally moths and
bats. Cacti range in size from small and globular to tall and

Text for question 30 to 32

A. Ants
B. Bees

C. Insects
D. Flying insects

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants,

and are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey
and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000 known species of bees in
nine recognized families though many are undescribed and the
actual number is probably higher. They are found on every
continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that
contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that
enables them to obtain the nectar from flowers. They have
antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in males
and 12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have
two pairs of wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a
very few species, one sex or caste has relatively short wings that
make flight difficult or impossible, but none are wingless.
The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose
workers are about 2.1 mm (5/64") long. The largest bee in the
world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee whose females can
attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae,
or sweat bees, are the most common type of bee in the Northern

Text for question 33 to 36

MICHAEL JACKSON
On June 25, 2009, Jackson died while in his bed at his
rented mansion at 100 North Carolwood Drive in the Holmby Hills
district of Los Angeles. Attempts at resuscitating him by Conrad
Murray, his personal physician, were unsuccessful. Los Angeles
Fire Department paramedics received a 911 call at 12:22 (PDT,
19:22 UTC), arriving three minutes later at Jackson's location. He
was reportedly not breathing and CPR was performed.
Resuscitation efforts continued en route to the Ronald Reagan

UCLA Medical Center, and for more than an hour after arriving there
at 1:13 (20:13 UTC). He was pronounced dead at 2:26 local time
(21:26 UTC). Jackson's death triggered a global outpouring of grief.

deceased as sleeping. No tears are shed, because the deceased is

only temporarily not present and will reincarnate or find his final rest
in Moksha

The news spread quickly online, causing websites to slow down

and crash from user overload. Both TMZ and the Los Angeles Times
suffered outages. Google initially believed that the input from millions
of people searching for "Michael Jackson" meant that the search
engine was under DDoS attack, and blocked searches related to
Michael Jackson for 30 minutes. Twitter reported a crash, as did
Wikipedia at 3:15 pm PDT (22:15 UTC). The Wikimedia Foundation
reported nearly a million visitors to Jackson's biography within one
hour, probably the most visitors in a one-hour period to any article in
Wikipedia's history. AOL Instant Messenger collapsed for 40
minutes. AOL called it a "seminal moment in Internet history",
adding, "We've never seen anything like it in terms of scope or
depth."

The proper day of the ceremony is decided by the priest. On

the day of the ceremony, the body of the deceased is placed inside
a coffin. This coffin is placed inside a sarcophagus resembling a
buffalo or in a temple structure made of paper and wood. The
buffalo or temple structure will be carried to the cremation site in a
procession. The procession should not walk in a straight line. This
is to confuse bad spirits and keep them away from the deceased.
The climax of Ngaben is the burning of the whole structure,
together with the body of the deceased. The fire is necessary to
free the spirit from the body and enable reincarnation.
Ngaben is not always immediately performed. For higher caste
members it is normal to perform the ritual within 3 days. For lower
caste members the deceased are buried first and later, often in a
group ceremony for the whole village, cremated
