The following text is for questions 1 to 4.

Antibiotic is a drug produced by certain microbes. Antibiotics destroy other microbes that damage
human tissues. They are used to treat a wide variety of diseases, including gonorrhea, tonsillitis, and
tuberculosis.

Antibiotics are sometimes called “Wonder drugs” because they can cure diseases such as meningitis,
pneumonia, and scarlet fever. But, when the antibiotics are overused or misused, these drugs make a
person sensitive being attacked by a superbug.

Antibiotics do not always distinguish between harmless and dangerous microbes. If a drug destroys too
many harmless microorganism, the pathogenic ones (the dangerous microbes) will have a greater
chance to multiply. This situation often leads to the development of a new infection called
suprainfection.

Extensive use of some antibiotics may damage organs and tissues. For example, streptomycin, which is
used to treat tuberculosis, has caused kidney damage and deafness.

Resistance to antibiotics may be ecquired by pathogenic microbes. The resistant microbes transfer
genetic material to non-resistant microbes and cause them to become resistant. During antibiotic
treatment, non-resistant microbes are destroyed, but resistant types survive and multiply.

To avoid the side effect of antibiotics, you’d better not urge your doctor to prescribe antibiotics. Keep in
mind that antibiotics are only useful for bacterial infections and have no effect on viruses, so they
cannot be used for chicken pox, measles, and other viral diseases.

1. Which diseases cannot be cured by antibiotics?

A. Tonsillitis

B. Meningitis

C. Chicken pox

D. Tuberculosis

E. Scarlet fever
2. What are discussed in paragraph two and four?

A. Both paragraphs describe how antibiotics work

B. Both paragraphs tell about the effects of misusing antibiotics

C. Both paragraphs explain how antibiotics damage organs and tissues

D. Paragraph two tells what causes the pathogenic microbes multiply and paragraph four tells how
the un-resistant microbes become resistant

E. Paragraph two tells how antibiotics destroy harmless microbes and paragraph four describes how
the pathogenic microbes transfer genetic material to non-resistant microbes

3. Choose one from the following which is not the effect of using antibiotics improperly?

A. Organs and tissues are damaged

B. The pathogenic microbes multiply

C. Harmless microorganisms are destroyed

D. Pathogenic microbes become nonresistant

E. New infection which is called suprainfention develops

4. “Antibiotics do not always distinguish between harmless and dangerous microbes.”(paragraph 2)

USE AF FORMALIN AND OTHER ADDITIVES IN FOODS

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been a serious for two reasons.
Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimen and experiments. Formalin in
biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant or to preserve
biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.

The second reason is that there is not tight control from the government. This condition makes the
people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use of formalin is spread wide all

The number of high-rise apartment buildings continues to mushroom not only in the center of the city
but also in suburban areas. This shows that many Indonesian enjoy living in apartments. This is true for a

In Australia there are three levels of governments, the federal government, state governments and local
governments. All of these levels of government are necessary. This is so for number of reasons. First, the
federal government is necessary for the big things. They keep the economy in order and look after like
defensE. Similarly, the state governments look after the middle sized things. For example they look after
law and order, preventing things like vandalism in school. Finally, local government look after the small

There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculturE. Pesticides which are commonly used may cause
many problems. I think combining different management operations is the most effective way to control
pests.

Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up as residues in the environment and in the soil which
absorbs the chemicals. This reduces the quality of farm product.

Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means that newer and stronger ones
have to be developed.

Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and animals such as fish and bees. This affects the
ecology and environment as well.

So, understanding of ecology of an area helps a lot in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen and
applied carefully so that they don’t affect the ecological balance and environment.

Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option to fight pest in agriculture
and livestock.

Arti

Tidak ada cara terbaik untuk menangani hama di pertanian. Pestisida yang umum digunakan dapat
menyebabkan banyak masalah. Saya pikir menggabungkan operasi manajemen yang berbeda adalah
cara yang paling efektif untuk mengendalikan hama.

Pertama, bahan kimia dalam pestisida dapat terbentuk sebagai residu di lingkungan dan di tanah yang
menyerap bahan kimia. Ini mengurangi kualitas produk pertanian.
Kedua, hama bisa secara bertahap menjadi kebal terhadap pestisida. Ini berarti bahwa yang lebih baru
dan lebih kuat harus dikembangkan.

Terakhir, beberapa pestisida mempengaruhi tanaman dan hewan non target seperti ikan dan lebah. Ini
mempengaruhi ekologi dan lingkungan juga.

Jadi, pemahaman ekologi suatu area sangat membantu dalam pengendalian hama. Pestisida harus
dipilih dan diterapkan dengan hati-hati agar tidak mempengaruhi keseimbangan ekologi dan lingkungan.

Oleh karena itu, pengelolaan hama terpadu adalah pilihan yang aman dan lebih efektif untuk melawan
hama di bidang pertanian dan peternakan.

I strongly believe that mobile phones are necessary. My reasons for this belief are that these phones are
convenient for business people who travel a lot, and they are handy for emergencies.

To begin with, mobile phones are necessary in the case of emergencies. For instance, if you fall down a
set of stairs in a building and are badly injured and can’t reach a pay phone, it is handy to have one to
use. Or, if your car breaks down in the middle of the night in a strange neighbourhood, it would be
dangerous to leave it in search of a public phone booth.

My other main reason is that mobile phones are convenient for business people. For example, if you are
out of the state or even overseas and you have to contact a client to do some important work, it is
useful to have one to use. By using a mobile phone, important information can be received. People can’t
stay in an office all day waiting for their phone to ring. Some people have to go and do jobs or they will
go out of business. You can even send faxes or messages and use the internet with your mobile.

In conclusion, I believe that mobile phones have now become a necessary part of every day life. Instant
communication will ensure that information can be passed on with a simple press of a button. Whether
this is to do with business or personal information or emergencies, it goes to show that they are
necessary in the new millennium.

Arti

Saya sangat percaya bahwa ponsel diperlukan. Alasan saya untuk keyakinan ini adalah bahwa telepon ini
nyaman bagi orang-orang bisnis yang sering bepergian, dan mereka praktis untuk keadaan darurat.

Untuk mulai dengan, ponsel diperlukan dalam kasus darurat. Misalnya, jika Anda jatuh dari tangga di
gedung dan terluka parah dan tidak dapat mencapai telepon umum, Anda dapat menggunakannya.
Atau, jika mobil Anda rusak di tengah malam di lingkungan yang aneh, akan berbahaya jika
meninggalkannya untuk mencari bilik telepon umum.

Alasan utama saya yang lain adalah bahwa ponsel nyaman bagi orang-orang bisnis. Misalnya, jika Anda
keluar dari negara bagian atau bahkan di luar negeri dan Anda harus menghubungi klien untuk
melakukan beberapa pekerjaan penting, ada gunanya memiliki satu untuk digunakan. Dengan
menggunakan ponsel, informasi penting dapat diterima. Orang-orang tidak dapat tinggal di kantor
sepanjang hari menunggu telepon berdering. Beberapa orang harus pergi dan melakukan pekerjaan
atau mereka akan keluar dari bisnis. Anda bahkan dapat mengirim faks atau pesan dan menggunakan
internet dengan ponsel Anda.

Kesimpulannya, saya percaya bahwa ponsel kini telah menjadi bagian penting dari kehidupan sehari-
hari. Komunikasi instan akan memastikan bahwa informasi dapat diteruskan dengan menekan satu
tombol. Apakah ini berkaitan dengan informasi bisnis atau pribadi atau keadaan darurat, itu
menunjukkan bahwa mereka diperlukan dalam milenium baru.

Arti

Penggunaan formalin dan pengawet berbahaya lainnya dalam makanan telah menjadi masalah serius
karena tiga alasan. Pertama, formalin bukan untuk manusia, tetapi untuk spesimen dan eksperimen
biologi. Formalin dalam Biologi adalah larutan formaldehida 10% dalam air yang biasanya digunakan
sebagai disinfektan atau untuk mengawetkan spesimen biologis. Jadi, itu bukan untuk pengawet
makanan. Tentu saja jika digunakan untuk pengawet makanan, itu akan sangat berbahaya bagi tubuh
manusia.

Alasan kedua adalah tidak ada kontrol ketat dari pemerintah. Kondisi ini membuat kesehatan
masyarakat benar-benar dalam ancaman. Ketika kontrol lemah dan penggunaan formalin tersebar luas
di seluruh wilayah Indonesia, dan hari-hari ini benar-benar terjadi, tubuh warga akan sangat
terkontaminasi dengan racun. Ikan atau pedagang makanan masih menjual produk mereka yang
mengandung pengawet formalin dan berbahaya. Dapatkah Anda membayangkan bahwa sistem
pencernaan kita menyerap zat yang seharusnya untuk tubuh manusia dan hewan?

Mempertimbangkan alasannya, kita dapat membuat kesimpulan bahwa penggunaan formalin dan
bahan pengawet lainnya benar-benar masalah serius jika tidak segera diselesaikan.

Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyablE. You can mix pleasure with learning
when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some underlying
reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.

Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard
after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This
phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.

Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is just
what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times more
motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs can be quite complex syntactically,
lexically and poetically, and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary samplE.

Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purposE. Most pop songs and probably
many other types don’t have precise people, place or time referencE.

In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and
within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and
yeas, even revolution.

Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar,
practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary, spelling and culturE.

From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and songs, learning English
can be enjoyable and fun.

Arti

Belajar bahasa Inggris melalui musik dan lagu bisa sangat menyenangkan. Anda dapat mencampur
kesenangan dengan belajar ketika Anda mendengarkan lagu dan memanfaatkan lagu sebagai sarana
untuk kemajuan bahasa Inggris Anda. Beberapa alasan yang mendasari dapat ditarik untuk mendukung
gagasan mengapa kami menggunakan lagu dalam pembelajaran bahasa.

Pertama, “lagu itu tertancap di kepalaku” Fenomena (suara yang menggema di benak kami dari lagu
terakhir yang kami dengar setelah meninggalkan restoran, pusat perbelanjaan, dll) bisa menyenangkan
dan terkadang mengerikan. Fenomena ini juga tampaknya memperkuat gagasan bahwa lagu bekerja
pada ingatan jangka pendek dan panjang.

Kedua, lagu-lagu pada umumnya juga menggunakan bahasa percakapan sederhana, dengan banyak
pengulangan, yang hanya apa yang banyak siswa cari teks sampel. Fakta bahwa mereka efektif membuat
mereka berkali-kali lebih memotivasi daripada teks lainnya. Meskipun biasanya sederhana, beberapa
lagu dapat sangat kompleks secara sintaksis, leksikal dan puitis, dan dapat dianalisis dengan cara yang
sama seperti samplE sastra lainnya.

Selanjutnya, lagu dapat disesuaikan oleh pendengar untuk tujuan mereka sendiri. Sebagian besar lagu
pop dan mungkin banyak jenis lainnya tidak memiliki orang, tempat atau waktu referensi yang tepat.

Selain itu, lagu-lagu santai. Mereka memberikan variasi dan kesenangan, dan mendorong harmoni
dalam diri sendiri dan dalam satu grup. Tidak heran mereka adalah alat penting dalam mempertahankan
budaya, agama, patriotisme dan yeas, bahkan revolusi.

Last but not least, ada banyak kegiatan pembelajaran yang dapat kita lakukan dengan lagu-lagu seperti
mempelajari tata bahasa, melatih pemahaman mendengarkan yang selektif, menerjemahkan lagu,
belajar kosa kata, ejaan dan kultur.

Dari uraian di atas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa belajar melalui musik dan lagu, belajar bahasa Inggris
dapat menyenangkan dan menyenangkan.

off their fooD. People pay to taste good food and not to be put off by foul smelling smokE.

smoking that is breathing in smoke made by a smoker can lead to asthma attacks and even cancer.

Finally, smoking is dangerous and a health risk to the smokers. Cigarettes cause heart and lung disease

Analytical Text 9

To improve comfort and cleanliness at our school, a number of dust bins should be increased.

When we look at classrooms, school corridors and school yard, there are paper mineral water cups,
straws, and napkins here and therE. The condition of uncleanliness and discomfort really hinders
learning and teaching environment. Litters thrown carelessly cause disease, especially empty plastic cup
or glasses. They can be filled out with water coming from the rain. This can be placed for dengue
mosquitoes to spread out. Besides, these rubbish can deteriorate the scenE. Well painted wall and green
school yard do not mean anything litters are scattered everywherE.

Anyway I notice that most of the students in our school have responsibilities for the school
environment. They put their litters on the proper places. But some are not diligent enough to find the
dust bins. The numbers of dust binds in our schools are not enough. Ore dust bins should be put beside
each of steps, outside of the classrooms, and some more also the corridors. Probably one dust bin
should be in every ten meters. So when students want to throw away their litters, they can find the dust
bins easily.

When school is equipped with sufficient dust bins, we do not have problems of freak and discomfort any
morE. Our school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.

Arti

Untuk meningkatkan kenyamanan dan kebersihan di sekolah kami, sejumlah tempat sampah harus
ditingkatkan.

Ketika kita melihat ruang kelas, koridor sekolah dan halaman sekolah, ada gelas air mineral kertas,
sedotan, dan serbet di sini dan di sana. Kondisi tidak bersih dan tidak nyaman benar-benar menghalangi
lingkungan belajar dan mengajar. Litter yang dibuang sembarangan menyebabkan penyakit, terutama
gelas atau gelas plastik kosong. Mereka dapat diisi dengan air yang datang dari hujan. Ini bisa
ditempatkan untuk nyamuk demam berdarah untuk menyebar. Selain itu, sampah-sampah ini bisa
memburuk scenE. Dinding yang dicat dengan baik dan halaman sekolah yang hijau tidak berarti apa pun
yang berserakan tersebar di mana-mana.

Pokoknya saya perhatikan bahwa sebagian besar siswa di sekolah kami memiliki tanggung jawab untuk
lingkungan sekolah. Mereka menempatkan anak-anak mereka di tempat yang tepat. Tetapi ada juga
yang tidak cukup rajin mencari tempat sampah. Jumlah debu yang mengikat di sekolah kita tidak cukup.
Tempat sampah bijih harus diletakkan di samping setiap langkah, di luar ruang kelas, dan beberapa lagi
juga koridor. Mungkin satu tong sampah harus berada di setiap sepuluh meter. Jadi ketika siswa ingin
membuang sampah mereka, mereka dapat menemukan tempat sampah dengan mudah.

Ketika sekolah dilengkapi dengan tempat sampah yang cukup, kami tidak memiliki masalah aneh dan
ketidaknyamanan morE. Sekolah kami akan sangat bersih dan menjadi tempat yang bagus untuk belajar.

Analytical Text 10

School uniform is special clothes worn by all students of a particular school. The uniform of a school may
differ from others. Why should schools use uniforms? Below are some reasons.

First of all, Notre Dame’s Department of Sociology produced a study in 1998 concerning school
uniforms. Their findings using 10th grade students showed that uniforms have no direct effect on
“substance abuse, behavioral problems or attendancE.” It also claimed a negative effect on student
achievements for those students considered ‘pro-school’.

Secondly, uniform helps to create a strong sense school ethos and a sense of belonging to a particular
community. As such it promotes discipline and helps to drive up academic standards, which is why a
uniform is often adopted by schools which are being reopened with a fresh start after being classified as
failing.

Finally, uniform acts as a social leveler, under which all students are equal in the eyes of the school and
of each other. In institutions without uniform students are often competitive and worry endlessly about
their appearance and the clothes they should wear. Pupils without expensive designer clothes and
trainers may be singled out as social outcasts, or stigmatized as being from poor backgrounds. For these
reasons many parents prefer uniforms as they save them money on buying clothes for school wear.
Considering the findings, schools should implement the uniform as their identity. The government
should also publish some kind of rule which makes uniform compulsory for schools.

Arti

Seragam sekolah adalah pakaian khusus yang dikenakan oleh semua siswa dari sekolah tertentu.
Seragam sekolah mungkin berbeda dari yang lain. Mengapa sekolah harus menggunakan seragam? Di
bawah ini adalah beberapa alasan.

Pertama-tama, Departemen Sosiologi Notre Dame menghasilkan sebuah penelitian pada tahun 1998
tentang seragam sekolah. Temuan mereka menggunakan siswa kelas 10 menunjukkan bahwa seragam
tidak memiliki efek langsung pada “penyalahgunaan zat, masalah perilaku atau kehadiran.” Ini juga
mengklaim efek negatif pada prestasi siswa untuk siswa yang dianggap ‘pro-sekolah’.

Kedua, seragam membantu menciptakan etos sekolah rasa yang kuat dan rasa memiliki komunitas
tertentu. Karena itu mempromosikan disiplin dan membantu menaikkan standar akademik, itulah
sebabnya mengapa seragam sering diadopsi oleh sekolah yang dibuka kembali dengan awal yang baru
setelah digolongkan gagal.

Akhirnya, seragam bertindak sebagai penyamarataan sosial, di mana semua siswa setara di mata sekolah
dan satu sama lain. Dalam institusi tanpa siswa yang seragam seringkali kompetitif dan khawatir tanpa
henti tentang penampilan mereka dan pakaian yang harus mereka kenakan. Murid tanpa pakaian dan
pelatih yang mahal mungkin dipilih sebagai orang buangan sosial, atau diberi stigma sebagai berasal dari
latar belakang miskin. Karena alasan-alasan inilah banyak orang tua lebih suka seragam karena mereka
menghemat uang untuk membeli pakaian untuk pakaian sekolah. Mempertimbangkan temuan, sekolah
harus menerapkan seragam sebagai identitas mereka. Pemerintah juga harus menerbitkan semacam
aturan yang mewajibkan seragam bagi sekolah.
