SOAL ULANGAN BAHASA INGGRIS MTs KELAS VIII

9 Votes
Menghadapi yang namanya Ulangan Blok, Ulangan Umum, Ujian Middle semester sampai Ujian
Semester, Ujian Praktek dan sebagainya itu sangatlah menakutkan bagi sebagian Siswa bahkan
Guru.
Kenapa kita katakan demikian?
Bagi siswa yang memang kurang memperhatikan Guru ketika menerangkan pelajaran di kelas
atau kurang aktif dalam kerja kelompok, mau tidak mau mesti buka buku untuk Reading,
Writting, Talking dan Listening buat persiapan jika menginginkan nilai yang pantas ditunjukkan
kepada Orang tua dirumah.
Lebih dahsyat lagi bagi Guru yang tidak mengindahkan kata-kata KEPSEK untuk
soal jauh-jauh hari secara berangsur-angsur.

membuat

Kaget deh ketika Ujian akan diadakan besok paginya sementara soal yang ditargetkan 50 butir
baru diselesaikan 20 sampai 30 an.
Maka untuk itu kami sebagai Insan yang terlibat dalam pendidikan merasa bertanggung jawab
atas hal ini, sehingga muncul ide untuk Nge-share soal-soal ini sebagai pedoman bukan untuk
dijiplak keseluruhan.
Mengingat juga susahnya mencari soal-soal seperti ini.
Semoga menjadi momentum untuk meningkatkan prestasi.
