My Most Unforgettable Holiday
In 2015, I went to Derawan Island with my friends and that marks my most
memorable holiday ever!
In June, our school was having summer holiday, so we thought to ourselves that it
shouldn't go to waste. We quickly browsed the internet to find a good holiday destination
and after an hour of heated debate, the four of us agreed to give Derawan Island a try. It
was purely out of curiousity as none of us had been there before.
We arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport at 05.30 a.m. as the flight was
at 07.00 a.m. First, we flew to Balikpapan and waited for about an hour to continue the
flight to Berau. As soon as we touched down in Berau, my friend called the tour agent that
we had contacted earlier in Jakarta. They had got a car ready to take us to Labuan Batu.
From Labuan Batu, we took a speedboat for about an hour to Derawan Island. It was such
a long trip to Derawan but it all paid off as soon as we saw how beautiful the island was.
My friends and I were quickly ushered to our rooms in the resort. It was fantastic!
The rooms were in a cottage that was situated right above the sea. So we only had to step
out the terrace to find ourselves out in the open sea! After unpacking our luggages and
washing up, we went to the dining hall to grab our dinner. The dinner was only simple
seafood dishes. The surrounding totally enhanced the dining experience, making the food
taste much better.
The following day, we took a speedboat tour, hopping from one island to another
Our first trip stop was Kakaban Island where we hiked to reach the lake and swam among
stingless jellyfish. The last time I heard, there were only three places in the world that
have stingless jellyfish; two of them in Indonesia! Isn't that great? The next stop was the
Sangalaki Island where we got to visit sea turtle conservation and took lots of pictures
with sea turtle babies. They were so cute!
Our last stop was the Maratua Island where we were able to feed fish and see a
three-legged sea turtle. The three-legged sea-turtle wasn't born that way. We were told

BAHASA INGGRIS/USBN- SMAN 1 Sedayu /2019 6

04 - DI YOGYAKARTA

that it was swimming in the open sea when it was still a baby then its leg got caught in
plastic trash and couldn't grow even when the sea-turtle reached adulthood. One of the
island's guards saw the sea-turtle and saved it. He also untangled the plastic trash that
bound the sea-turtle's leg but it was too late. Since then, the sea-turtle is kept in a special
space next to the resort in Maratua Island and the guards take turns feeding it to ensure its
survival. This is why we should never litter and endanger other creatures! After Maratua
Island, we headed back to Derawan Island to catch a late dinner and turned in.
The following morning, we wake up early and ate our breakfast in the dining
room. Then, the driver drove us back to the airport so we could catch a flight back to
Jakarta. We arrived at Jakarta, exhausted but terribly happy! It was the most unforgettable
trip I have ever experienced so far!

Try the following tips

1. Stay out of the sun during peak hours. While these times may vary slightly depending
on the season and where you live. You should be indoors if all possible between 10:00
and 15:00.
2. Keep covered up. Floppy hats and large umbrellas work well and so do cover-ups.
Long-sleeved cotton shirts are excellent for hiking, cycling etc; see your sports store for
special brands that allow breathing as well as cover-up.
3. Use sunscreen on any exposed areas. An SPF of 45+ is recommended for it allows even
the fairest skinned folks to stay out in the sun for a few hours before reapplying. Try
chopstick on your lips. Follow the instructions on sunscreen carefully. Always reapply
after leaving the water, as it’ll have washed off.
4. Don’t forget hard-to-reach places. Don’t forget to cover the backs of your knees, back
of your neck, elbows and back of your ears (if you have short hair). Feet should also be
included if you are wearing sandals, flip-flops or going bare-foot. Even these places can
hurt a lot with sunburn.
5. Don’t lie in the sun purposefully seeking a tan. This is not only damaging to your skin
but might burn you the first few times you try it at the beginning of the season. If you
want to tan, do it gradually and sensibly, with short exposure and building up over time.
6. Put a small amount of oil or sunscreen in your hair so you will avoid burning your
scalp. Or cover it with a hat. Some shampoos and hair conditioners contain SPF
protection.

A long time ago, there lived on the island of Bali a giant-like creature named Kbo Iwo.
The people of Bali used to say that Kbo Iwo was everything, a destroyer as well as a creator.
He
was satisfied with the meal, but this meant for the Balinese people enough food for a thousand
men.
Difficulties arose when for the first time the barns were almost empty and the new
harvest
was still a long way off. This made Kbo Iwo wild with great anger. In his hunger, he destroyed
all the houses and even all the temples. It made the Balinese turn to rage.
So, they came together to plan steps to oppose this powerful giant by using his
stupidity. They asked Kbo Iwo to build them a very deep well, and rebuild all the houses and
temples he had destroyed. After they fed Kbo Iwo, he began to dig a deep hole.
One day he had eaten too much, he fell asleep in the hole. The oldest man in the village
gave a sign, and the villagers began to throw the limestone they had collected before into the
hole. The limestone made the water inside the hole boiling. Kbo Iwo was buried alive. Then
the water in the well rose higher and higher until at last it overflowed and formed Lake Batur.
The mound of earth dug from the well by Kbo Iwo is known as Mount Batur.

And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stones to bread
And so we all must lend a helping hand

Recycling is important in today’s world if we want to leave this planet for our future
generations. It is good for the environment, since we are making new products from the old
products which are of no use to us. There are many reasons why it’s important to recycle as
much as possible.

BAHASA INGGRIS/USBN- SMAN 1 Sedayu /2019 11

04 - DI YOGYAKARTA

Making new products out of recycled materials reduces the need to consume
precious resources. So recycling helps protect raw materials and protect natural habitats for
the future.
Using recycling materials in the manufacturing process uses considerably less
energy than that required for producing new products from raw materials.
Recycling reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying and logging), refining
and processing raw materials all of which create substantial air and water pollution. As
recycling saves energy, it also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to tackle
climate change.
There are over 1,500 landfill sites in the UK and, in 2001, these sites produced a
quarter of the UK’s emissions of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that is released as the
biodegradable waste (such as food and paper) decomposes. Existing landfill sites are filling
up fast and there is very limited space for new ones.
A massive reduction in the amount of waste we send to landfill is required if we are
to avoid the heavy fines and the landfill taxes that are being imposed by Central
Government on councils that exceed their landfill allowances. Increases in your Council
Tax or service cuts in other areas would be the only way of paying these penalties.

31. What does the text highlight?

A. Reasons to recycle.
B. Conserving the energy.
C. Protecting the environment.
D. Environmental construction.
E. Saving money through recycling.

32. We know from the text that ... if we recycle.

A. landfill sites will decrease
B. climate change will continue
C. more new products will be reduced
D. natural habitats will never be affected
E. air and water pollution will be affected

33. ”Recycling reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying and logging), refining and
processing raw materials all of which create substantial air and water pollution.”
Based on this quote, we conclude that the writer is telling us that ….
A. recycling saves us money
B. recycling reduce landfill
C. recycling saves energy
D. recycling conserves raw materials
E. recycling helps protects the environment

34. Recycling reduces the need for extracting ... it reduces pollution.

Venice is world famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands
formed by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are
connected by about 400 bridges. In the old centre, the canals serve the function of roads, and
every form of transport is on water or on foot.
You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly
used for tourists, or weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by
motorised waterbuses which ply regular routes along the major canals and between the city’s
islands. The city has many private boats. The only gondolas still in common use by Venetians
are the Traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal at certain points without

A flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land. In the sense of
“flowing water”, the world may also be applied to inflow of the tide. Flooding may result from
the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, which overflows or break
levees, with the result that some of the water escapes its unusual boundaries.
While the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in
precipitation and show melt, it is not a significant flood unless such escapes of water endanger
land areas used by man like a village, city or other inhabited area.
Floods can also occur in rivers, when flow exceeds the capacity of the river channel,
particularly at bends or meanders. Flood often cause damage to homes and businesses if they
are placed in natural flood plains of rivers. While flood damage van be virtually eliminated by
moving away from and other bodies of water, since time out of mind, people have lived and
worked by the water to seek the sustenance and capitalize on the gains of cheap and easy travel
and commerce by being near water. That humans continue to inhabit areas threatened by flood
damage is evidence that the perceived value of living near the water exceeds the cost of
repeated periodic flooding.

The Dutch launched a military offensive on 19 December 1948 which it termed
Operation
Crow.
By the following day it had conquered the city of Yogyakarta, the location of the
temporary
Republican capital. By the end of December, all major Republican held cities in Java and
Sumatra were in Dutch hands.
The Republican President, Vice-President, and all but six Republic of Indonesia
ministers
were captured by Dutch troops and exiled on Bangka Island off the east coast of Sumatra.
In areas surrounding Yogyakarta and Surakarta, Republican forces refused to surrender
and continued to wage a guerrilla war under the leadership of Republican military chief of staff
General Sudirman who had escaped the Dutch offensives. An emergency Republican
government, was established in West Sumatra.
On March 1, 1949 at 6 am, Republican forces launched March 1 General Offensive. The
Offensive caught the Dutch by surprise. For his part, Hamengkubuwono IX allowed his palace
to be used as a hide out for the troops. For 6 hours, the Indonesian troops had control of

BAHASA INGGRIS/USBN- SMAN 1 Sedayu /2019 14

04 - DI YOGYAKARTA
Yogyakarta before finally retreating.
The Offensive was a moral and diplomatic success, inspiring demoralised troops all
around
Indonesia, as well as proving to the United Nations that the Indonesian army still existed and
were capable of fighting. On the other hand, the offensive had demoralized the Dutch forces,
because they never thought that Indonesian forces could assault and control the city, even for a
few hours.
