entire listening test will last approximately 30 minutes. You must mark your answers on the separate

PART I
Directions: For each question in this part, you will hear four statements about a picture in your test book.
When you hear the statements, you must select the one statement that best describes what you see in the
picture. Then, find the number of the question on your answer sheet, and mark your answer. The
statements will not be printed in your test book and will be spoken only two times. Look at the example
item below:
PART II
Directions: You will hear a question or a statement and three responses spoken in English. They will not
be printed in your test book, and will be spoken two times. Select the best responses to the question or
statement and mark the letter (A), (B) or (C) on your answer sheet. For example:
You will hear : ‘…………………………………’
You will also hear : ‘…………………………………’
The best response to the question : ‘Where’s the meeting room?’ is choice (B) : ‘It’s the first room on
the right.’ So (B) is the correct answer, you should mark answer (B) on your answer sheet.
4. Mark your answer on your answer sheet
5. Mark your answer on your answer sheet
6. Mark your answer on your answer sheet
7. Mark your answer on your answer sheet
Part III :
Directions : In this part of the test, you will hear short conversations between two people. The
conversation will not be printed in your test book. So you must listen carefully to understand what the
speakers say. In your test book, you will read a question about each conversation. The questions will be

Kapoposang and the nearby islands were declared a Nature Tourism Park by the Department of
Forestry in 1999. Diving has been an important activity at Kapoposang since the mid 1990s.
There were so few local divers at the time, and because of the distance from other well-known
diving areas in Indonesia, Kapoposang has basically remained a secret.
The best time to visit Kapoposang is between April and November, when the seas are calm, the
weather favorable, and the wind less fierce than in the other months. The trip takes two hours by
speedboat; the ocean breezes help to cool your skin in the hot morning sun. As you approach
Pulau Kapoposang, you see the deep blue water, which suddenly meets an expanse of coral reefs
between extensive shallows with white sands in the seabed. Sea grass also grows lushly near the
shore. The sea bed at Kapoposang has a unique composition; near the island are some quite
shallow contours, and then suddenly steep underwater cliffs leading to seemingly endless depths.
The water is very clear; you can expect underwater visibility of over 15 meters – ideal
conditions for divers.
Designed as a representation on the universe, the tongkonan is constructed in three parts: the upper world
(the roof), the world of humans (the middle of the building), and the underworld (the space under the
floor). The highly distinctive roors constructed by the Toraja given rise to various ingenious
interpretations. Certainly the roof is something of deep significance for the Toraja, and even today they
build "modern" (in other words houses built with cement) houses with such roofs.

One of social phenomena in Java is Kenduri that is a form of traditional ceremony which is
still implemented until today.
Kenduri is a traditional ceremony in which some people gather to pray for the safety and the

neighbors, colleagues, spiritual figure and so on. Another Javanese term for Kenduri is slametan
and the form is actually also implemented in other culture in different terms and procedures.

for example, Kenduri for the celebration of marriage and other important event including the
disaster event.
The main point to held Kenduri is to pray for the safety and blessing to the God. The process
of Kenduri is first the host prepares everything such as place and food, and then the host invites
the kin, neighbors, colleagues, and spiritual figure or religious leader to guide the ceremony.
When the invited guests come, then the ceremony is started. The leader is also stands for a
speaker who tells the host intention. After that, they began to pray together. After the prey
process is finish, the host prepares the food to be eaten together. At this time, this even can be a
medium of people to meet and share some stories and news.
To close the ceremony, the host gives the gift (souvenir and food in common) to all the
guests of the ceremony. Sometimes, the host also gives some foods prepared in a box to the

Faraday studied the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a DC electric current. While
conducting these studies, Faraday established the basis for the electromagnetic field concept in
physics, subsequently enlarged upon by James Maxwell. He similarly discovered
electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and laws of electrolysis. He established that
magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the
two phenomena. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of
electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became viable for
use in technology.
Although Faraday received little formal education and knew little of higher mathematics, such as
calculus, he was one of the most influential scientists in history. Historians of science refer to
him as the best experimentalist in the history of science. The SI unit of capacitance, the farad, is
named after him, as is the Faraday constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485
coulombs). Faraday’s law of induction states that magnetic flux changing in time creates a
proportional electromotive force.
Faraday was the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution of
Great Britain, a position to which he was appointed for life.
Albert Einstein kept a photograph of Faraday on his study wall alongside pictures of Isaac
Newton and James Clerk Maxwell.
Faraday was highly religious. He was a member of the Sandemanian Church, a Christian sect
founded in 1730 that demanded total faith and commitment. Biographers have noted that a
strong sense of the unity of God and nature pervaded Faraday’s life and work.
33. What was Michael Faraday expert?
A. science, history and religion
B. chemistry, electricity and calculus
C. electronic, technology and religion
D. chemistry, physic and mathematics
E. physic, technology and photography

First, it was really fun until I kicked the ball too strong, so the ball leaded me to the window
and broke the window. When we want to escape, all of a sudden we all heard a loud voice. After
that, the owner of the house came out of the fence, he yelled at us. We are very afraid of her, but
we do not know what to do. Then, one of my cousins told us to run, we all ran, and suddenly we
heard the sound of skin. Then we know that homeowners allow dogs to chase us. And we were
struggling to run as fast as her as we can.
But, I fell down so the dog managed to capture me and bit my leg. It really hurts me. Then the
dog ran back into the house. My cousin took me to the doctor and told my parents . In the end,
the doctor said that I was exposed to rabies. Then I was hospitalized for one week more.
That's a terrible day of the week for me, may not happen to me again in his next week Sunday.
