long way from Malioboro. On Friday, we went to the sanctuaries in Prambanan. There are three
major sanctuaries, the Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu sanctuaries. They are truly stunning. We
went by just Brahmana and Syiwa sanctuaries, on the grounds that Wisnu sanctuary is being
remodeled. On Saturday morning we went to Yogya Kraton. We spent around two hours there.

Questions number 5 – 6

A long time ago, very few people lived in the New Territories. There were only a few villages. If
the people wanted to go from one village to another, they often had to pass through wild and
unsafe forest. One day, a farmer’s young wife went to the next village to visit her own mother
and brother. She brought along her baby son. When it was time for her to leave, her brother said
“ it is getting dark. Let my son, Ah Tim go with you though the forest.” So Ah Tim led the way
and the young woman followed behind, carrying her baby. When they were in the forest,
suddenly they saw a group of wolves. They began to run to avoid the danger, but Ah Tim kicked
against a stone and fell down. At once the wolves caught him. The young woman cried to the
wolves, “ please eat my own son instead.” Then, she put her baby son on the ground in front of
the wolves and took her nephew away. Everyone understood that this was because the woman
was very good and kind. She had offered her own son’s life to save her nephew. They ran back
to the house and called for help. All men in the village fetched thick sticks and went back with
her into the forest. When they got there, they saw something very strange. Instead of eating the
woman’s baby the wolves were playing with him.

QUESTIONS NUMBER 12 – 14

Advertisements 

There are many reasons for both sides of the question, “should we have printed advertisement?”.
Many people have strong views and feel that ads are nothing more than useless junk mail, while
other people feel it is important source of information.

There are some reasons why we should have advertisement in newspaper and magazines. One
reason is ads give us information about what is available. Looking at ads we can find out what is
on sale and what is new in the market. This is an easy way of shopping. Another reason is that
advertisement promotes business. When shop owners compete against each other the buyer saves
money, more people come to their shops and they sell more goods.

On the other hand, some people argue that ads should not be put in newspapers and magazines
for these various reasons. Firstly, ads cost the shopkeepers a lot of money to print onto paper.
Also some people don`t like finding junk mail in their letter boxes. Ads also influence people to
buy items they don`t need and can`t really afford. Ads use up a lot of space and a lot of effort has
to be made to make the ads eye-catching.

a lot of money and take up a lot of room in the papers. I don`t think I find some of them
interesting. I mainly disagree because its junk mail.
