Dear Chandra,

heard that you are an athlete. Congratulations! Finally, your dreams come true.
Well, I’d like to tell you about my recent activities in school. I join in a music club, so I practice music
every day. Few months ago, a new music teacher was built in my neighborhood. It is a branch office of a popular
music club. You know that I like playing guitar and piano, so I decided to register. My parents allowed me to join

supports me. When he was young, he wanted to be a singer. That’s why he wants me to be a musician. Now, I’m
preparing for a small concert held by the music club. I practice playing piano everyday. I hope I can do my best.

This text is for questions 26 to 30.

Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to built up new cells and replace the
worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to
the places where they are needed. This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by the
action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which
moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the food is
mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small
intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch

This text is for questions 31 to 35.

We all know that everyone is a product of their environment. Circumstantial life events, influences, and
surroundings can further change our behavior. Social media was once reserved for interaction with friends and
family.

When Facebook and Twitter first came out no one could have imagined the impact that it would have on
marketing and directly reaching consumers. Social media already highly influences our shopping, relationships,
and education. But how large of a role does networking through social media play into our lives? Maybe more
than any of us realize.

Although exceptions exist, research suggests that most social networks primarily support pre-existing social
relations. For the most part, Facebook is used to maintain existing offline relationships or solidify offline
connections, as opposed to meeting new people. These relationships may be weak ties, but typically there is some
common offline element among individuals who friend one another, such as a shared class at school. This is one of
the chief dimensions that differentiate social media from earlier forms of public communication such as
newsgroups. Research in this vein has investigated how online interactions interface with offline ones. Facebook
users engage in “searching” for people with whom they have an offline connection more than they “browse” for
complete strangers to meet.

What we update our online status to say has more of an effect on our audience than we think. From a marketing
perspective, think how to positively influence your already existing customers, clients, or brand advocates online.
If you can successfully create positive emotions around your campaign or brand in any way, the ripple effect can
be more pervasive and influential than you might think.

31. The purpose of the text above is ….

A. to amuse readers with social media influence
B. to explain how social media influence people
C. to describe the influence of social media
D. to inform the social media influences
E. to retell the influence of social media

32. How can social media primarily support pre-existing social relations?
A. Social media users browse for complete strangers to meet.
B. Social media users engage in searching for old friends.
C. Social media helps people meeting new friends.
D. Social media relationship is a weak tie relation.
E. Online interactions interface with offline ones.

33. Main idea of paragraph two is ….

A. The description of social media networking
B. The definition of social media networking
C. The role of people engangement in networking
D. The role play of social media into people’s live
E. The ability of social media in boosting offline connection

34. Based on the text, what is the effect of social media from marketing perspective?
A. It positively influences existing customers, clients, or brand advocates online.
B. Online status has more of an effect on our audience than we think.
C. It can successfully create positive emotions around campaign.
D. The ripple effect can be more pervasive and influential.
E. It was once reserved for interaction.
