DINOSAURS

Dinosaurs were a type of lizard. They lived from 230 million to about 65
million years ago. In 1842, Sir Richard Owen created the word dinosaur. It came from
Greek words deinos, meaning “terrible: and sauros, meaning “lizard”. Dinosaurs lived
on earth for about 140 million years.
During the dinosaurian era, the days were short. The sun was not as hot as it is
today. On earth there was only one big continent and one big ocean. The name of the
continent was pangea (all lands) and the name of the ocean was panthallassa (all
seas).
There were many kinds of dinosaurs. Some of them were very big and some
others were small. Some dinosaurs ate leaves and some others ate meat. Some
dinosaurs could fly.

Questions 27 to 29 are based on the text
Have you ever visited a place which made you want to stay forever?
I have. Last year, I went to Situ Cileunca. At first, I thought the place was only the
same as other places in Bandung. But I was very surprised to find that it was the most
beautiful place I‟ve ever visited.
There were fantastic meadows, a lake, and a river. The meadow was very large.
In the middle of the meadow there were many cows and sheep. All the animals were fat
and healthy because they could easily get some grass in that large meadow. At the edge
of the meadow, there was a small river. The water in the river was very cold. But, the
sound of the streaming water was good to hear, especially in the evening.
Not far away from the herd of cattle, there was a lake. The lake wasn‟t too big,
but it was very beautiful. The water was very clear and clean. We could see many fish
