 Raja Ampat
In Bahasa Indonesia, Raja Ampat means "Four Kings", i.e. four kings who ruled four
kingdoms in the region, namely Waigeo, Misool, Salawati, and Batanta. The name of
Raja Ampat is taken from the folklore that exist in the region. In the folklore is said that
in ancient times there was a husband and wife who accidentally found 6 dragon eggs on
the banks of the Waikeo River. Because they are hungry, they intend to cook the six eggs.
When about to be cooked, five of the six eggs hatch and out 5 human babies. Four men
and one woman. They were later named War, Betani, Dohar, and Muhammad. While the
women are named Pintolee. Everything is maintained by the husband and wife.

amazing when entering Raja Ampat territory. Although the average air temperature of 45
degrees Celsius, that is not a reason not to go to this tourism object since it surrounded by

This text is for question 25 to 27

No matter what the season, tea can be a tasty beverage since it can be served iced or hot. Tea
is an aromatic beverage commonly prepared by pouring hot or boiling water over cured
leaves of the Camellia Sinensis, an evergreen shrub native to Asia.

Researchers have claimed that drinking tea can reduce the chances of developing type 2
diabetes by up to 25 per cent if three or four cups are consumed a day. It is thought that
antioxidants and magnesium compounds help to keep weight down. Drinking one cup of tea a
day could also help to reduce the risk of ovarian cancer, studies have suggested. Women who
drink a single cup every day are 10 per cent less likely to develop the disease than those who
never drink tea, research last year found.

Green tea is considered to have the most health benefits of any type of tea. Studies have
found that it is a preventive for heart disease and cancer, an acne cure and even a mouthwash.
It is also thought to protect us from glaucoma and other eye diseases. The tea, full of
antioxidants, can also help you lose weight, experts claim.

However, because green tea naturally contains a small amount of caffeine, it is unsuitable for
people with caffeine sensitivity, and should not be drunk in large quantities by women who
are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Black tea is also thought to have similar negative elements. Mainly, the caffeine in it is
believed to contribute to the stiffening of arteries. However, the amount of caffeine is small
and makes tea a healthier alternative to coffee.

A. Paragraph 3 talks about the benefit of tea, paragraph 5 talks about the negative
alternative of black tea

This text is for question 31 to 33

Biodiesel is a clean burning substitute for petroleum based diesel fuel. Biodiesel is made of
vegetable oil. To make or manufacture Biodiesel, you must first start with raw materials. The
raw materials needed in the production of Biodiesel are a small amount of methanol and a
ready supply of vegetable product. One of the most common vegetables used in the
production of Biodiesel is corn, although depending on the geographic location of the
manufacturing facility many other plants are used as well (rapeseed, soybeans, flaxseed, etc.).
The first step is to use the raw vegetable product to make vegetable oil. Vegetable oil by itself
will not be what you need to power a car, from here it has to be processed into Biodiesel.

The process for converting vegetable oil into Biodiesel is sometimes called ester interchange.
To complete this process the vegetable oil has to be combined with a smaller amount of
methanol and then put in the presence of a small quantity of an alkaline catalyst (for example,
5% to 1% sodium hydroxide). Vegetable oil is made up of so-called triglycerides, which is a
compound of the trivalent alcohol glycerin with three fatty acids. The goal of ester
interchange is to separate the glycerin molecule from the three fatty acids and replace it with
three methanol molecules. This process then yields roughly 90% Biodiesel and 10% of a
glycerin byproduct. The glycerin byproduct can be used in a number of other chemical
processes for different industries.
31.What is the text about?

A. The process of making Biodiesel.

B. The use of the Biodiesel.
C. The advantage of using the Biodiesel.
D. The benefit of producing the Biodiesel.
E. The development of the Biodiesel product.

32.What are interchanged in the process of ester interchange?

A. The three fatty acids with the glycerin molecules.

B. The glycerin molecule with three methanol molecules.
C. Methanol with the three fatty acids.
D. Vegetable oil with methanol
E. Methanol and alkaline catalyst.

33.“The vegetable oil has to be combined with a smaller amount of methanol”

The passive form of the sentence above is ….

A. We combine oil with a smaller amount of methanol
B. We combined oil with a smaller amount of methanol
C. We can combine oil with a smaller amount of methanol
D. We have combined oil with a smaller amount of methanol
E. We have to combine oil with a smaller amount of methanol

How to Clean Bookshelves Thoroughly
1. Remove everything from the shelves. Don’t bother sorting at this point, just get the
shelves bare.
2. Clean the bookcase. With the bookcase empty, pull the bookcase out from the wall,
and dust both the wall behind it and the back of the case. Now is a good time to
vacuum the floor beneath and behind it, using an extension duster if you need to. Dust
bookcase inside and out, cleaning any grimy spot.
3. Sort through your books and give (no toss!) away any that no longer interest you.
4. Clean books individually by dusting them, both outside and inside the dust covers
where debris builds up. Dust along the tops of the pages, or use a hand-held vacuum.
5. Organize your books in the method you plan on displaying them. Personally, I display
fiction alphabetized by title in one bookcase, and non-fiction books, organized by
subject and then author, in another bookcase. But I’m kind of weird about my books.
6. Return your books to the shelves, but feel free to play around with how you arrange
them. Leather-bound books look lovely all in a row, while colorful, contemporary
books become decorative objects when stacked horizontally like book ends.

A Monarchy in Crisis
As the 18th century drew to a close, France’s costly involvement in the American
Revolution, and extravagant spending by King Louis XVI and his predecessor, had left
the country on the brink of bankruptcy.
There were the royal coffers depleted, and also two decades of poor harvests,
drought, cattle disease and skyrocketing bread prices had kindled unrest among peasants
and the urban poor. Many expressed their desperation and resentment toward a regime
that imposed heavy taxes – yet failed to provide any relief – by rioting, looting and
striking.
In the fall of 1786, Louis XVI’s controller general, Charles Alexandre de Calonne,
proposed a financial reform package that included a universal land tax from which the
privileged classes would no longer be exempt.
To garner support for these measures and forestall a growing aristocratic revolt, the
king summoned the Estates-General (les états généraux) – an assembly representing
France’s clergy, nobility and middle class – for the first time since 1614.
The meeting was scheduled for May 5, 1789; in the meantime, delegates of the three
estates from each locality would compile lists of grievances (cahiers de doléances) to
present to the king.
