THE LEGEND OF TELAGA WARNA

Long long ago, there was a kingdom in West Java. The kingdom was ruled by a king
named His Majesty Prabu.

Prabu was a kind and wise king. But it was a pity that Prabu and his queen hadn't got
any children. The queen often cried. That was why Prabu went to the jungle. There he
prayed to God every day, begging for a child.

A few months later, the queen got pregnant. Nine months later, a princess was born.
Prabu and Queen loved their beautiful daughter so much. They gave whatever she wanted.
It made Princess turn into a very spoiled girl.

One day, the princess celebrated her 17th birthday party. Many people gathered in the
palace. Then, Prabu took out a necklace which was made from gold and jewel.

"My beloved daughter, today I give you this necklace. Please, wear this necklace," said
Prabu.

"I don't want to wear it! It's ugly!" shouted the princess. Then she threw the necklace.
The beautiful necklace was broken. The gold and jewels were spread out on the floor.
Everybody couldn't say anything. They never thought that their beloved princess would do
that cruel thing. In their silence, people heard the queen crying. Every woman felt sad and
began crying, too. Then, everybody was crying. Then, there was a miracle. Earth was
crying.

Suddenly, from the underground, a spring emerged. It made a pool of water. Soon, the
place became a big lake. The lake finally sank the kingdom.

Nowadays, people called the lake "Telaga Warna". It means "Lake of Color". On a bright

1
 day, the lake is full of color. These colors come from shadows of forest, plants, flowers,
and sky around the lake. But some people said that the colors are from the princess's
necklace, which spreads at the bottom of the lake.

Irrigation is a system that provides water to cultivate plans. This water management has been
done by human since ancient times. But, like every other thing, irrigation has its advantages and
disadvantages.
Irrigation has been a very beneficial process for farmers, especially those in dry countries.
Without irrigation there could not be farming in dry regions. Huge areas of rich land which are
now covered with productive farms and support prosperous communities would still be
wasteland and desert, a land of cactus and sagebrush, coyotes, and jack rabbits.
The chief problem is caused by continuous irrigation. Nearly all irrigation water, whether it is
from the ground or from a river, contains a little bit of salt. Where drainage is bad, the water can
reach the root level, and the concentrated salt can make plant growth almost impossible.
This problem has happened in some irrigated areas such as along the Murray River, where
the land is now seriously affected by salinity from the flood- and-furrow areas of the Riverina

5
and northern Victoria. Such land may eventually be of limited use for agriculture. These are only
some of the many problems caused by irrigation. Other problems are not as major as those
already mentioned but are enough to cause problems. Any changes even if it is only minor can
change the rivers behavior causing floods and other problems.
In Australia agriculture makes a large part of overseas profit, 57% of Australia’s export is
agriculture products. To grow crops, there must be irrigation to wet the land. So irrigation brings
a lot of good effects.
13. The min idea of the third paragraph is...
A. continuous irrigation causes problems
B. irrigation makes plants do not grow well

A. salt is harmful to plants

C. salinity makes the soil fertile
D. irrigation may cause problems, instead of its benefit.
E. continuous irrigation inundate farm fields
15. There must be irrigation to wet the land to grow crops, irrigation brings a lot of good
effects.

Once upon a time in West Java, Indonesia, lived a princess named DayangSumbi. Her hobby
was weaving cloth. One day her weaving tool fell but she was too lazy toget it herself. She
shouted out, ‘Anybody there? Bring me my tool. I will give you special present. If you are
female, I will consider you as my sister. If you are male, I will marry you’
A male creature came, but it was a dog. His name was Tumang. He happily brought her the
tool to her. DayangSumbi was very surprised but she kept her promise. She married the dog.
Tumang was actually a man who had been cursed by a witch to become a dog. But at certain
times Tumang could turn back to be a normal man. Their only son, Sangkuriang, was soon born,
and he grew up to be a handsome and healthy boy. He always played with his very loyal dog,
Tumang. He did not know that he was actually his father, because DayangSumbi hid the secret
from him. Sangkuriang liked to hunt in the woods, of course with Tumang.

11
 One day DayangSumbi asked him to bring home a deer’s heart. Unfortunately, he could not
find any deer in the woods. He did not want to disappoint his mother and was thinking hard how
to bring home a deer’s heart. Suddenly he had a very bad idea. He killed Tumang! Then he
brought his heart home and gave it to Dayang Sumbi. Sangkuring could not cheat her. She knew
it was Tumang’s heart. So, she got very angry and hit Sangkuriang’s forehead with a piece of
wood and told him to leave the village.
Many years later, Sangkuriang grew up to be a powerful man. One day he went back to his
village. He met a beautiful young woman there, and he fell in love with her at the first sight. It
was Dayang Sumbi! She never got older because she had been granted eternal youth by the gods.
Sangkuriang did not know that she was his mother, so she came to her and proposed to marry
her.
When he walked closer to her, DayangSumbi got very surprised. She saw the scar in
Sangkuriang’s forehead, and soon she knew that he was her son, who left her a long time ago.
She told him the truth and tried hard to explain it to him, but he did not believe her. She accepted
his proposal but gave him an impossible thing to do. She wanted him to build a lake and a boat in
just one night!
Sangkuriang agreed, because he knew that he could make it with the help of his genies. By
midnight he finished the lake and then started making the boat. DayangSumbi was thinking hard
to find a way to fail him. Before dawn, she asked the people in the village to burn the woods in
the East, and the light made all the cocks crow. Thinking that the night would be over soon, the
genies ran fast and left Sangkuriang before the boat was finished. Sangkuriang realized that
