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.

The following text is for questions no. 70-72.

Silkworms live for only two or three days after laying eggs. About 36,000 to 50,000 eggs are laid,
and these are carefully stored at the silkworm farm until they are ready to hatch. The eggs hatch
into caterpillars, which feed on mulberry leaves. Soon the caterpillars are ready to spin their
cocoons. Not all caterpillars can spin silk cocoons. Only the caterpillars of a silkworm moth
known as “Bombyx mori” can do such spinning.
This caterpillar has special glands which secrete liquid silk through its lower lip. The liquid
produced later hardens to form thin strands. The caterpillar makes its cocoons using these
strands. The threads on the outside of the cocoons are rough, while those inside are soft and
smooth.
Some fully-spun cocoons are heated. This kills the pupa inside. The cocoons are then put into
hot water to loosen the fine threads. Finally, these threads are reeled out the cocoons. The
length of unbroken thread produced by a single cocoon measures about one-and-a-half
kilometers. Twist several of these threads together can make single women material.

The following text is for questions no. 73-76.

The sense of taste is one of a person’s five senses. We taste with the help of taste buds
on the tongue.
There are four main kinds of taste: sweet, sour, salty, and bitter. All other taste are just
mixture of two or more of these main types.
The surface of the tongues has more than fifteen thousand taste buds (or cells). These
are connected to the brain by special nerves which send the so-called taste messages.
When the tongue comes into contact with food of any kind, the taste buds will pick up the
taste. The nerves then send a message to the brain. This will make us aware of the taste. This
happens in just a few seconds.
There are four kinds of taste buds, each of which is sensitive to only a particular taste.
These four groups are located in different parts of the tongue.
The taste buds for salty and sweet taste are found round the tip of the tongue and along
its sides. Sour taste can be picked up only at the sides of the tongue. The taste buds of the bitter
taste are found at the innermost edge of the tongue. There are taste buds at the center of the
tongue.
The sentence of smell and sight can affect taste. The delicious smell of food increases its
taste. Similarly, attractive colors can make food appear tastier and more delicious. If food does
not smell good or is dull-colored, it will not look tasty and may not taste good at all.
Very hot or cold sensations can make the taste buds insensitive. Food that is too hot or
too cold, when placed in the mouth, will have no taste at all.

73. We can taste any kind of food because of….


a. the delicious smell of food
b. the four main kind of taste
c. the taste buds on the tongue

My brother and I went to a football match yesterday. Our school team was playing against
another high school team. Our team wore red and white shirts, white shorts, and red socks. The
other team wore orange and black shirts, orange shorts, and black socks. “They look like bees.”
My brother said, and we laughed.
They played like bees too. They ran very fast, attacked very hard, and passed the ball to each

Queen Aji Bidara Putih

Muara Kaman lies along the Mahakam river, in eastern Borneo. In the past, the area was a
kingdom ruled by Queen Aji Bidara Putih. She was a typical queen of myths: beautiful, wise, and
sensitive. Many princess and kings proposed to her but she always refused them because she
was more concerned about ruling her country and guarding her people.
One day, a Chinese boat came to eastern Borneo. First, the people thought it was a merchant
ship but the boat was loaded with trade goods and highly-trained soldiers. Their envoys brought
gold and porcelain to announce the marriage proposal from a prince of China. The queen didn’t
refuse instantly and replied that she had to ponder the proposal first. After the envoys left the
place, the queen called a court officer and ordered him to infiltrate into the Chinese boat to
gather information on the prince.
When the night fell, the officer sneaked onto the boat, passed all the guards and finally found the
prince’s room. The large door would not open and he couldn’t find a peek hole, so the officer put
his ear to the wall, trying to hear sounds from inside. He heard that the prince was having his
dinner and the noise of his chewing and slurping surprised the officer. It was like a boar that he
had once heard when he was hunting.
He quickly left the boat and returned to the palace. He reported that the prince must have been
a phantom, not a human. He believed that the phantom could be in a human’s form only during
the daytime. The queen was so surprised and got angry. On the next day, she refused his
proposal.
The enraged prince ordered his troops to raid Muara Kaman. The battle was won by the prince’s
huge band of troops. As they drew near to the place, Queen Aji Bidara Putih chewed a leaf of
betel vine and sang mantra while holding it. When she threw it at the Chinese troops, it turned to
giant centipedes. The Chinese troops started to retreat but there centipedes chased them and
sank the boat. The site of the sunken ship is now known as Danau Lipan (Lake of centipedes),
with Chinese treasure hidden on the lake’s bed.
