Once upon a time, there was a beautiful girl named Putri Kemuning. She lived with her mother in
a forest. They earned their living by collecting firewood, to sell to the villagers nearby.
One day, Putri Kemuning’s mother was sick. Putri Kemuning was very upset because she had
no money to buy medicine for her mother. The rabbit, Putri Kemuning’s friend, knew that. It
approached her and gave her a ring. It told her that it found the ring in the forest. It belonged to King
Ngarancang Kencono. He dropped it when he was hunting.
The rabbit asked Putri Kemuning to sell the ring so she could use the money to buy medicine.
Putri Kemuning refused to sell it. On the contrary, she gave the ring back to the king. Finally, the

The following text is for questions 14 to 18.

One day, I awoke early, as I often do, just before sunrise, to walk by the ocean’s edge and greet the
new day. As I moved through the misty dawn, I focused on a faint, far away motion. I saw a young girl,
bending and reaching and flailing her arms, dancing on the beach, no doubt to celebrate the perfect day
soon to begin.
As I approached, I sadly realized that the girl was not dancing on the bay, but rather bending to sift
through the debris left by the night’s tide. She picked up a starfish and then stood, only to heave it back
into the sea. I asked the girl the purpose of her efforts. She said, “The tide has washed the starfish onto
the beach and they cannot return to the sea by themselves.” She added, “When the sun rises, they will
die, unless I throw them back into the sea.”
As the girl explained, I surveyed the vast expanse of beach, stretching in both directions beyond my
sight. Starfish littered the shore in numbers beyond calculation. The hopelessness of the girl’s plan
became clear to me and I countered, “There are more starfish on this beach than you can ever save
before the sun is up. Surely you cannot expect to make a difference.”
The girl paused briefly to consider my words, bent to pick up a starfish and threw it as far as
possible. Turning to me she simply said, “I made a difference with that one.”
I left the girl and went home, deep in thought of what the girl had said. I returned to the beach and
spent the rest of the day helping the girl return starfish to the sea.

This following text is for questions 30 to 33.
The body has five main senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. More information about the
outside world enters the body through the eyes and ears–from pictures, noises, words on paper and
everyday sounds–than through all the other senses combined. All the body’s sense organs work in the
same way. They detect changes or features and produce patterns of tiny nerve signals that are sent to
the brain. The eye detects light as rays of different colors and brightness. The ear detects vibrations of
sound that reach it as invisible air waves. Both smell and taste are chemo-senses. They detect tiny
particles of chemical substances – odorants floating in the air and flavorings in foods and drinks. The
two senses work separately, but they usually both send messages to the brain at the same time when we
eat and drink. So does the sense of touch, as the lips, tongue, gums and cheeks detect the temperature
and hardness or consistency of the food. Smell, taste and touch are closely linked or associated in the
brain–especially when we eat. What we imagine as the ‘taste’ of a meal is really a combination of these
three senses.

The following text is for questions 43 to 45.

Do you get enough sleep at night? It is good for you to do so, because lack of sleep can cause bad
effects.

The following text is for questions 52 to 54.

If you love to sing, then you’re already aware that singing is fun, energizing and a great stress
reducer. If you’re facing physical, emotional or mental challenges, or if you just want more peace and
happiness, here are ways singing can change your life.
As you begin to use “full body breathing” witha relaxed, soft belly, you allow the diaphragm to drop,
giving the lungs the freedom to expand more fully. Relaxed abdominals are essential for proper breath
support while singing.
As you use full body breathing, you are bringing in a greater volume of air. Oxygen floods the blood
system, bathing the cells in life-giving oxygen. You will feel more alive as you breathe deeply and fill
yourself with energizing, oxygenated air! Singing oxygenates the blood!
Besides, singing requires thought. You are memorizing lyrics, melodies and rhythms, as well as
connecting words with emotion. Your “singer’s breathing” technique is bringing more oxygen to the
brain. Your brain’s neurons are firing furiously as you are integrating the physical, emotional
andpsychological functions necessary to joyful singing! Singing stimulates brain activity!
All this physical, neurological and emotional activity serves to release those “feel-good” hormones
called endorphins. So not only is your audience benefiting from your lovely voice, but you are being
flooded with happy hormones that give you a sense of peace and well-being. Singing feels fantastic
because it releases “feel good” endorphins!
Considering the facts, it is good for you to sing every day, but please choose songs with positive
lyrics. If you’re one of millions who claim “can’t sing!”, then I suggest that you consider singing as an
absolutely free, non-prescription, safe and effective life-enhancing tool.

The following text is for questions 9 to 13.
One day, I awoke early, as I often do, just before sunrise, to walk by the ocean’s edge and greet the
new day. As I moved through the misty dawn, I focused on a faint, far away motion. I saw a young girl,
bending and reaching and flailing her arms, dancing on the beach, no doubt to celebrate the perfect day
soon to begin.
As I approached, I sadly realized that the girl was not dancing on the bay, but rather bending to sift
through the debris left by the night’s tide. She picked up a starfish and then stood, only to heave it back
into the sea. I asked the girl the purpose of her efforts. She said, “The tide has washed the starfish onto
the beach and they cannot return to the sea by themselves.” She added, “When the sun rises, they will
die, unless I throw them back into the sea.”
As the girl explained, I surveyed the vast expanse of beach, stretching in both directions beyond my
sight. Starfish littered the shore in numbers beyond calculation. The hopelessness of the girl’s plan
became clear to me and I countered, “There are more starfish on this beach than you can ever save
before the sun is up. Surely you cannot expect to make a difference.”
The girl paused briefly to consider my words, bent to pick up a starfish and threw it as far as
possible. Turning to me she simply said, “I madea difference with that one.”
I left the girl and went home, deep in thought of what the girl had said. I returned to the beach and
spent the rest of the day helping the girl return starfish to the sea.

I. Pilihan Ganda
A. Listening Section
1. E. Jawaban disimpulkan dari ucapan wanita itu, yaitu ”Guess what! Our team has won the National
Robot Competition!” yang artinya ”Coba tebak! Tim kita telah memenangkan Lomba Robot
Nasional.”, yang direspons laki-laki itu dengan berkata, ”Amazing! That is really good news.”.
Jadi, kedua anak itu membicarakan keberhasilan tim mereka dalam Lomba Robot Nasional.
Pilihan jawaban (E) benar.
2. A. Jawaban disimpulkan dari kalimat anak laki-laki itu, ”Tiara, what did you do to your left arm?”
yang artinya ”Tiara, apa yang kamu lakukan dengan lengan kirimu?” yang direspons anak
perempuan itu dengan ungkapan kesakitan (”Ouch! . . . It’s really painful.”). Jadi, yang terasa
sakit adalah lengan kiri anak perempuan itu, sesuai dengan pilihan jawaban (A).
3. C. Dalam percakapan tersebut, anak laki-laki itu mengungkapkan kegembiraannya karena ia
memenangkan perjalanan wisata gratis ke Eropa selama dua minggu (kalimat ”I won
a free trip to Europe for two weeks!”). Jadi, pilihan jawaban (C) benar.
4. E. Pilihan jawaban (E) benar sebagai pernyataan yang tidak sesuai dengan cerita karena hal itu

penuh koin emas sebagai imbalan atas kebaikannya, bukan menikahinya. Pilihan jawaban yang
lain salah; (A) sesuai dengan kalimat ”She lived with her mother in a forest.”, (B) sesuai dengan
kalimat ”On the contrary, she gave the ring back to the king.”, (C) sesuai dengan kalimat ”It
approached her and gave her
a ring. It told her that it found the ring in the forest.”, dan (D) sesuai dengan kalimat ”Putri
Kemuning was very upset because she had no money to buy medicine for her mother.”.

ia menemukan cincin itu di hutan. Cincin itu miliki Raja Ngarancang Kencono.”.
B. Reading Section

a three-month English course in Australia!”. Jadi, tujuan teks tersebut adalah untuk memberi

associated expenses.”.

ocean’s edge’ yang artinya ’sesaat sebelum matahari terbit untuk jalan-jalan di sepanjang tepi
pantai’ dan ’dancing on the beach’ yang artinya ’menari-nari di pantai’. Jadi, cerita tersebut
terjadi di pantai; ’beach’ sama dengan ’seashore’.

keterangan waktu di kalimat pertama teks, yaitu ’just before the sunrise’ yang artinya ’sesaat
sebelum matahari terbit’, yang berarti pagi-pagi sekali.

menyelamatkan-nya karena mereka akan mati apabila matahari telah terbit. Ia berusaha untuk
menyelamatkan mereka meskipun mustahil baginya untuk menyelamatkan semuanya, tetapi

cerita tersebut adalah (B) yang artinya kita harus peduli dengan yang lain, tidak peduli seberapa
kecil tindakan kita.

which mother bought this morning was spoiled already.”
16. D. Kalimat-kalimat acak tersebut membentuk teks narrative, yaitu tentang mawar merah yang
sombong. Susunan kalimat yang tepat adalah (D) 3–6–4–2–7–5–1, yang artinya sebagai berikut:
(3) Suatu hari sebuah mawar merah mekar di hutan. Mawar tersebut berkata dengan bangga,
”Tampaknya saya adalah tanaman paling cantik di hutan ini.”; (6) Bunga matahari bertanya,
”Mengapa kamu berkata demikian? Di hutan ini ada banyak tanaman yang cantik. Kamu adalah
salah satunya.”; (4) Mawar merah itu menjawab, ”Saya melihat setiap orang melihat dan
mengagumi saya.”; (2) Kemudian, mawar itu melihat kepada kaktus dan berkata, ”Lihatlah
tanaman jelek yang penuh duri itu!”; (7) Pohon pinus berkata, ”Mawar merah, apa yang kamu
katakan? Kamu juga memiliki duri.”; (5) Mawar merah yang sombong itu melihat kepada pinus

tidak pernah marah dan bahkan ia mencoba menasihati mawar dengan berkata, ”Tuhan tidak
menciptakan sesuatu dalam kehidupan tanpa tujuan.”.
17. B. Kata yang paling tepat untuk melengkapi kalimat soal adalah (B) wave yang artinya ombak. Hal
itu disimpulkan dari frasa kunci ”the other wave” yang artinya ombak yang lain (terdapat di
kalimat selanjutnya). Pilihan jawaban yang lain salah; (A) artinya anak laki-laki, (C) artinya anak
perempuan,
(D) artinya kerang, dan (E) artinya ikan.

adjektiva adalah (E) which.
19. A. Kalimat soal artinya ”Kita semua akan . . .! Kita semua ombak tidak akan menjadi apa-apa!”.

menabrak. Pilihan jawaban yang lain salah; (B) artinya menyerah, (C) artinya bertahan hidup,
(D) artinya berubah, dan (E) artinya mengalahkan
20. E. Ombak kedua menjelaskan bahwa ombak tersebut bukanlah semata-mata ombak. Ia adalah
bagian dari lautan (ocean). Jadi, pilihan jawaban (E) benar. Pilihan jawaban yang lain salah; (A)

II. Esai
Contoh jawaban:
A mother wished to encourage her small girl’s interest in the piano and so took her a local concert
featuring an excellent pianist. In the entrance foyer the mother met an old friend and the two stopped to
talk. The little girl was keen to see inside the hall and so wandered off, unnoticed by her mother. The
girl’s mother became concerned when she entered the hall and could see no sign of her daughter. Staff
were notified and an announcement was made asking the audience to look out for the little lost girl. With
the concert due to start, the little girl had still not been found. In preparation for the pianist’s entrance,
the curtains drew aside, to reveal the little girl sitting at the great piano, focused in concentration, quietly
picking out the notes of ‘Twinkle Twinkle Little Star’.
The audience’s amusement turned to curiosity when the pianist entered the stage, walked up to the
little girl, and said “Keep playing.”
The pianist sat down beside her, listened for
a few seconds, and whispered some more words of encouragement. He then began quietly to play
a bass accompaniment, and then a few bars later reached around the little girl to add more
accompaniments. At the end of the impromptu performance the audience applauded loudly as the
pianist took the little girl back to her seat to be reunited with her mother. The experience was
inspirational for everyone, not least the small girl.
It takes just a few moments to make somebody’s day, to help someone with their own personal aims
and dreams - especially someone who looks up to you for encouragement and support.

The following text is for questions 10 to 13.
The body has five main senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch. More information about the
outside world enters the body through the eyes and ears–from pictures, noises, words on paper and
everyday sounds–than through all the other senses combined. All the body’s sense organs work in the
same way. They detect changes or features and produce patterns of tiny nerve signals that are sent to
the brain. The eye detects light as rays of different colors and brightness. The ear detects vibrations of
sound that reach it as invisible air waves. Both smell and taste are chemo-senses. They detect tiny
particles of chemical substances – odorants floating in the air and flavorings in foods and drinks. The
two senses work separately, but they usually both send messages to the brain at the same time when we
eat and drink. So does the sense of touch, as the lips, tongue, gums and cheeks detect the temperature
and hardness or consistency of the food. Smell, taste and touch are closely linked or associated in the
brain–especially when we eat. What we imagine as the ‘taste’ of a meal is really a combination of these
three senses.

The following text is for questions 8 to 10.
Do you get enough sleep at night? It is good for you to do so, because lack of sleep can cause bad
effects.
First, inadequate sleep can cause irritability and stress, while healthy sleep can enhance well-being.
After a sleepless night, you may be more irritable, short-tempered and vulnerable to stress. If you sleep
well, your mood should be normal.
Besides, lack of sleep can be an even greater risk factor for anxiety. In a study, people with
insomnia were 20 times more likely to develop panic disorder, a type of anxiety disorder.
Finally, sleeping is also associated with health. Numerous studies have found that insufficient sleep
increases a person’s risk of developing serious medical conditions, including obesity, high blood

 If you love to sing, then you’re already aware that singing is fun, energizing and a great stress
reducer. If you’re facing physical, emotional or mental challenges, or if you just want more peace and
happiness, here are ways singing can change your life.
As you begin to use “full body breathing” witha relaxed, soft belly, you allow the diaphragm to drop,
giving the lungs the freedom to expand more fully. Relaxed abdominals are essential for proper breath
support while singing.
As you use full body breathing, you are bringing in a greater volume of air. Oxygen floods the blood
system, bathing the cells in life-giving oxygen. You will feel more alive as you breathe deeply and fill
yourself with energizing, oxygenated air! Singing oxygenates the blood!
Besides, singing requires thought. You are memorizing lyrics, melodies and rhythms, as well as
connecting words with emotion. Your “singer’s breathing” technique is bringing more oxygen to the
brain. Your brain’s neurons are firing furiously as you are integrating the physical, emotional
andpsychological functions necessary to joyful singing! Singing stimulates brain activity!
All this physical, neurological and emotional activity serves to release those “feel-good” hormones
called endorphins. So not only is your audience benefiting from your lovely voice, but you are being
flooded with happy hormones that give you a sense of peace and well-being. Singing feels fantastic
because it releases “feel good” endorphins!
Considering the facts, it is good for you to sing every day, but please choose songs with positive
lyrics. If you’re one of millions who claim “can’t sing!”, then I suggest that you consider singing as an
absolutely free, non-prescription, safe and effective life-enhancing tool.

II. Esai
Contoh jawaban:
Nowadays there are many markets and malls. Traditional markets seem to be left behind. However,
for me traditional markets are still important.
First of all, the foods sold there are fresher compared with the ones in markets and malls. Of course,
it is better for our health.
Besides, we can practice bargaining at
traditional markets. When bargaining, we sometimes use the local language and it is a good way to
maintain it. Not only that, they are also important to increase the local people’s income. These are the
reasons why I think the existence of traditional markets should be maintained.
