We are announcing today that we are bringing the Zoro and Superrr brands even
closer together. Effective as of 5th December 2018, our offical name will be:

SUPERRR ZORO EAST

The substitution of “East” in our name --- replacing “Surabaya” --- is the result of an
agreement we reached with Surabaya Clothing Assosiation, following the protest over
the original use of “Surabaya” in our name.

We hope this does not create any confusion among our royal consumers. While this
represents a change from our initial name introduction, it does not change the quality
of products we offer to our consumers.

16. Why do they make an announcement?

A. To expose Superrr Zoro East Company.
B. To explain Superrr Zoro East Customers.
C. To prepare the co-walker of Superrr Zoro East

Jeremy Foster

Dear Jeremy:
Further to my letter to you of Sept. 15/2018, tomorrow will make seven (7) weeks
since your renovation project mishap caused significant water damage to the ceiling
of my bathroom (i.e. Aug. 27/2018). As you know, most of the ceiling collapsed due
to the excessive water build-up. As you are also aware, Units 11 and 13 were also
damaged.
The only thing that has happened on this since my Sept. 15th letter, took place about
ten days later when an Estimator for your insurance company inspected the damage to
the various units.
The day after the mishap, you told me that since you had caused this problem you
would be following-up promptly and would keep me posted on developments. It has
now been 48 days since your actions caused this damage and my bathroom ceiling
has still not been repaired, nor have I heard anything from you or anyone else about
when repairs might be done.
I have recently had two sets of house guests visit me and I was not too pleased about
having to apologize to them about the state of my bathroom. I expect more guests in a
couple of weeks and I would really appreciate it if the repairs were done before their
visit.
Frankly Jeremy, I am at a loss to understand why you have obviously made no efforts
to expedite these repairs and to keep us informed of the situation. You seem to be
acting as if this really didn't happen and that perhaps it will somehow go away. I'm
afraid it will not go away until you attend to repairing the damage for which you are
responsible.
At this point I would ask you to please show some respect and consideration for your
neighbors who suffered these damages through no fault of their own, but due to your
negligence.
Jeremy, on behalf of my fellow residents in this building I ask you to do the right

The Leaning Tower of Pisa (Italian: Torre pendente di Pisa) or simply the Tower of
Pisa is the campanile, or freestanding bell tower, of the cathedral of the Italian city of
Pisa, known worldwide for its unintended tilt. The tower is situated behind the Pisa
Cathedral and is the third oldest structure in the city's Cathedral Square (Piazza del
Duomo), after the cathedral and the Pisa Baptistry.

The tower's tilt began during construction in the 12th century, caused by an inadequate
foundation on ground too soft on one side to properly support the structure's weight.
The tilt increased in the decades before the structure was completed in the 14th
century. It gradually increased until the structure was stabilized (and the tilt partially
corrected) by efforts in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

The height of the tower is 55.86 metres (183.27 feet) from the ground on the low side
and 56.67 metres (185.93 feet) on the high side. The width of the walls at the base is
2.44 m (8 ft 0.06 in). Its weight … at 14,500 metric tons (16,000 short tons). The
tower has 296 or 294 steps; the seventh floor has two fewer steps on the north-facing
staircase. In 1990 the tower leaned at an angle of 5.5 degrees,[ but following remedial
work between 1993 and 2001 this was reduced to 3.97 degrees, reducing the overhang
by 45 cm at a cost of £200m. It lost a further 4 cm of tilt in the two decades to 2018.

The following text is for questions number 26 - 29

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix
pleasure with learning when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to
your English progress. Some underlying reason can be drawn to support the idea why
we use songs in language learning.

Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last
song we heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc. ) can be both enjoyable
and sometimes unnerving. This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that
songs work on our short-and-long term memory.

Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of
repetition, which is just what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are
effective makes them many times more motivating than other text. Although usually
simple, some songs can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically, and
can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.Furthermore, song can
be appropriated by listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and probably many
other types don’t have precise people, place or time reference.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony
within oneself and within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in
sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and yeas, even revolution. Last but not least,
there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar,
practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary,
spelling and culture.

From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and
songs, learning English can be enjoyable and fun.

A. It is enjoyable to learn music and English songs.
B. It is better to learn English through music and songs.
C. Music and songs is very important in learning English

E. Learning English through music and songs must be enjoyed.

27. Why is learning through song fun?

A. It is enoyable to remember the songs and the lyrics, the purposes is fun for teenagers,
it’s relaxing.
B. It is easy to sing the songs and repeat the lyrics, the melody is good for teenagers, it’s
enjoyable.
C. It is easy to memorize the lyrics, the purposes is appropriate to teenagers, it’s
relaxing.
D. It is good to repeat the lyrics, the purposes is appropriate to teenagers, it’s relaxing.
E. It is enjoyable to sing the lyrics, the melody is appropriate to teenagers, it’s fun.

The following text is for questions number 33 - 35

Anne Sullivan Macy, née Joanna Sullivan, also called Annie Sullivan, (born April 14,
1866, Feeding Hills, near Springfield, Massachusetts, U.S.—died October 20, 1936, Forest
Hills, New York), American teacher of Helen Keller, widely recognized for her
achievement in educating to a high level a person without sight, hearing, or normal speech.
Joanna Sullivan, known throughout her life as Anne or Annie, was eight when her mother
died, and two years later her father deserted the three children. Sullivan, whom an earlier
illness had left nearly blind, entered the Perkins Institution for the Blind in 1880. Surgery
the next year restored some sight, and she graduated from Perkins at the head of her class in
1886.
In March 1887, after several months of studying the records of Samuel Gridley Howe’s
work with Laura Bridgman, Sullivan arrived in Tuscumbia, Alabama, to become governess
to six-year-old Helen Keller, who had been left blind and deaf by an illness contracted at
the age of 19 months. Keller had grown into an undisciplined, willful, and ill-tempered
child with no means of contact with the outer world but touch. With patience and creativity,
Sullivan within a month succeeded in teaching Keller, by means of a manual alphabet, that
things had names. Her progress was rapid thereafter. Keller and Sullivan gained a national
reputation as Keller mastered a full vocabulary and displayed a gifted intelligence. In 1888
the two began spending periods at the Perkins Institution, and Sullivan subsequently
accompanied Keller to the Wright-Humason School in New York City, the Cambridge
School for Young Ladies, and finally Radcliffe College, where Sullivan painstakingly
spelled out the lectures to Keller and read to her for hours each day. After Keller’s
graduation in 1904, they settled on a farm given by a benefactor in Wrentham,
Massachusetts.
In 1905 Sullivan married John A. Macy, a Harvard instructor who had worked with Keller
on her autobiography. The marriage ultimately proved unhappy, and from 1913 they were
separated. Anne Macy continued as Keller’s constant companion at home and on national
and later worldwide lecture tours on the chautauqua and vaudeville circuits and later for the
American Foundation for the Blind. Macy’s frequent overexertions taxed her strength,
however, and as her health declined, so did her always-delicate spirits. By 1935 she was
completely blind.

33. What is the purpose of this text?

A. To expose about a successful blind teacher.
B. To explain the how Anne Sulivan becomes a famous person.
C. To announce that a blind teacher can be success.
D. To tell the history of Anne Sullivan .
E. To inform about a blind person who became a teacher.

B. There were many blind and deaf people at that time.
C. At that time, people didn’t like blind or deaf people.
D. Blind and deaf people didn’t get oportunity to work.

Once upon a time there was a kingdom in West Sumatra. The people worked as farmers.
Their lives were full of happiness. The land was fertile and the weather was always beautiful.
The people also had a wise king. He always protected the people.

However, soon their happy lives would be disturbed. Majapahit, a kingdom from Java
would attack them. The people were so scared. They were so restless. They went to the king
to talk about it. The king tried to calm them down.

"Don't worry, my fellow-country men. I know Majapahit have many soldiers. They are
also great in war. If we fight them, maybe we lose. But I have an idea how to beat them," said
the king. "We can challenge them to a buffalo fight. If their buffalo dies, we win. But if our
buffalo dies, they win. But we have to make sure our buffalo will win. How? With a strong
baby buffalo."

The king then ordered his people to give him the strongest baby buffalo. After that, the
strong baby buffalo was separated from his mother. They did not give any food to the baby
buffalo for several days. The baby buffalo was very hungry! The baby buffalo cried and
cried. He asked for food. Then the king took two sharp knives and attached them strongly to
the baby buffalo's horn.

Now it was time for the buffalo battle. Everyone gathered on the field. The Majapahit
soldier released a big and wild buffalo out of his cage. Everyone was surprised with the size
of the buffalo. Later, the West Sumatran released their baby buffalo. The Majapahit soldiers
were laughing. "Ha ha ha. It's so small. How can you win?"

They did not know that the hungry baby buffalo had two sharp knives on the horn. It ran
fast towards the big buffalo and went straight under the big buffalo's stomach to find the teat.

The cockroaches are an ancient group, dating back at least as far as the Carboniferous
period, some 320 million years ago. Those early ancestors however lacked the internal
ovipositors of modern roaches. Cockroaches are somewhat generalized insects without
special adaptations like the sucking mouthparts of aphids and other true bugs; they
have chewing mouthparts and are likely among the most primitive of living neopteran
insects. They are common and hardy insects, and can tolerate a wide range of
environments from Arctic cold to tropical heat. Tropical cockroaches are often much
bigger than temperate species, and, contrary to popular belief, extinct cockroach
relatives and 'roachoids' such as the Carboniferous Archimylacris and the Permian
Apthoroblattina were not as large as the biggest modern species.
Some species, such as the gregarious German cockroach, have an elaborate social
structure involving common shelter, social dependence, information transfer and kin
recognition. Cockroaches have appeared in human culture since classical antiquity.
They are popularly depicted as dirty pests, though the great majority of species are
inoffensive and live in a wide range of habitats around the world.
