Questions no. 15 and 18 refer to the following text.


Dear Rossa,
I am a guy, twenty-eight years old. I have a problem with a girlfriend. She is twenty-
five years old. We have been dating each other for years, since we were high school student.
Now we have jobs. I feel very sure that we love each other. Now it is time for me to get
married. Unfortunately, her parents never approve our relationship ever since the very first
time. My family, anyhow, does not really mind. At first I thought my girlfriend had the power
to defend our love. But then she surrendered. She loves me and she loves her family too. On
the one hand she said, “I’ll be happy if my family is happy.” It means she had to get approval
from her parents.
For this, I was shocked. My heart was broken. She ended our relationship just at the
time when I was ready to marry her. When I was with her, we were very happy. We had a lot
in common and there were no conflict. The truth was, we separated only because of her
parents. They want her to marry her cousin, her aunt’s son (this is one of the traditions in the
Karonese).
For the being I am very upset. When I miss her I call her. Then we can eat together,
talk together. The real problem is, she cannot refuse what her parents want.
So, should I forget my girlfriend, the only one that I truly love? Or else, should I just wait,
and dream that one day she will be back to me?
Rio, Padang

Dear Rio,
You call her your girlfriend, but she has chosen her own way. For this reason I’d say
that there is nothing you can do except forget her and go on with your normal life. Hopefully
you can find another love and life happily forever.
Rossa

How Planes Fly
a plane needs air pressure under their wings to stay up in the air as they move forward the
higher air pressure underneath their wings pushes them upward and gives them lift
the smooth streamlined shape of the plane allows air to fly easily over its surface this helps to
reduce the drag causes by the air pushing against the plane and allows it to move rapidly
through the air
planes move forward using engines this movement is called thrust moving forward keeps a
stream of moving air passing over the wings which allows the plan to stay up in the air if the
engines fall the plane will begin to descend very quickly.
