1.            During the building of the Great Wall of China, there lived a husband and wife named Wan and MengJiangnu. Wan was a scholar. One day, Wan was taken from their home and carried away to help with the building of the Great Wall. Meng, saddened by the loss of her husband, waited for news of him. Much time passed without hearing of his whereabouts.                 One night in her sleep he came to her and told her he was freezing to death. She awoke and made the decision to travel to the area where she thought he was working and take him clothes she had made for him. During her journey she almost froze to death in a snow storm. A crow flew down next to her as she slept in the snow, and upon her awakening showed her how to flap her wings so she could join the crows and fly to her destination. Upon her arrival at the Great Wall she learned that her husband had died. She learned that he had been buried with many other workers in a section of the Great Wall. She searched the wall but couldn't locate his body. Anger arose from within her and poured out of her causing lightning to split the sky and rain to pour from the heavens washing away whole sections of the Great Wall. As the bones of the workers swirled about Meng pricked her finger and asked that her blood penetrate the bones of her husband, Wan. She located his bones and wrapped them in the clothes she had brought for him.                      The cruel Emperor, Qin shiHuangdi, was furious with her but taken with her beauty. The Emperor gave her a choice of coming with him or being beheaded. Meng responded by asking for three wishes: to have her husband buried in the style of a prince, to have the kingdom mourn him for 49 days, and give him a public funeral. The Emperor granted her the three wishes. After Wan's funeral she thanked the Emperor ...and then threw herself into the sea for she could not stand the thoughts of being with the Emperor. The Emperor commanded that her body be drug from the sea, cut into pieces, and her bones ground into dust. As they threw her dust into the sea thousands of little silvery fish filled the waters. So today if you visit the Great Wall next to the Eastern Sea you and others in China will remember the story of Meng and Wan. A crow flew down next to her ... she slept in the snow storm.

4. If someone is having a nose bleed, your priority is to control the bleeding and keep their airway open.

• Get them to sit down (not lie down) as keeping the nose above the heart will reduce bleeding.
• Get them to lean forward (not backwards), to make sure the blood drains out through their nose every ten minutes, until the bleeding stops.
• Encourage them not to speak, swallow, cough, spit or sniff because this may break blood clots that may have started to form in the nose.
• If the bleeding is severe, or if it lasts more than 30 minutes, call for medical help.

5. Last holiday, my friends and I went camping on the mountain. We went to Guci, Tegal. The spot is near from our town. It is about 2 hours to get there. We choose Guci because it is not too far from settlement. We prepared everything before going on camping. The boys prepared the tents, the girls prepared the food, and I checked the accommodations. We brought cooking utensils and the food from home, clothes, camera, guitar, etc. We went there by a car and a motorcycle for unwanted condition. We went there in the sunny morning and hoped no rain during camping. On the first day, we sat up the tent on the spot near waterfall. The girls made the fence of the area but the boys took a bath on the river. Then, we cooked the food for the lunch, had lunch together, tried to fish in the river but we got a sandal. On the second day, we had some activities. We went on hiking up the mountain, took some pictures in tea garden, and picked strawberry. The last night of our camping was so cold, we made a campfire, sang songs together and told spooky stories which made us fear. We had camping for about three days. On the last day, we packed everything we brought. We cleaned the area and made sure there was nothing left except our footprint. We didn't took anything except took photos, we remembered that we must keep the nature, friendly with them and they will be friendly with us. We made a memory by taking photos together in front of a waterfall and then went home happily. We felt very tired. After reading the text, what activity that wasn't done by the girls?

7.                  The internet connects all parts of the world without borders between them. Many people take advantages of the internet network. One of them is by opening virtual stores, meaning people are providing shops in cyberspace. They show photographs of good with all their characteristics. They also reflect prices, discounts and quality of goods. In addition to all the convenience of shopping online, we have to be very careful and cautious in doing transactions through cyberspace. Many people have experienced bad impacts of shopping online. Here are some examples of negative impacts of shopping online.                          First, people tend to become consumptive because quality goods are often sold cheaply and buyers don't need to go anywhere. Such convenience raises the desire to continue shopping and it's hard to resist.                      Second, online shopping habits create crimes, such as deception. Many people take advantages of this consumer psyche to open fake online stores aiming to get as much money as possible. Many prospective buyers are deceived by such stores only because they offer bigger discounts than usual. Without thinking people will immediately transfer money and hope to get good stuff at very cheap price, but they never receive the goods they ordered.                    Third, shopping online may create a feeling of disappointment because the items that buyers receive do not match what they ordered. Unfortunately, the goods cannot be returned which means they have lost their money and hope for getting good items.                           Fourth, people tend to look at their cellphone very often to browse various virtual stores. They began to ignore people and events that happen around them. Gradually, they will lose their social empathy. Knowing that there are many negative impacts of shopping online, we have to remain cautions of scams and not shop online too often. We need to browse in real shops, so we are not ignorant of people and events around us. The main idea of fifth paragraph is shopping online …

11. New airport to cater to more travelers in Yogyakarta             The government expects a new international airport in Yogyakarta, once completed, will improve the satisfaction of travelers flying to and from the region, a popular destination for both domestic and international tourists.            The new airport, which is being built in KulonProgo regency, is expected to accommodate 50 million passengers annually. It will replace Adisutjipto International Airport, which currently serves a number of travelers far beyond its designated capacity.            "The previous airport's capacity can no longer contain the passenger traffic and the aircraft movement. There is also a limit to the area expansion [for the airport]," Budi said on Friday during a ceremony to break ground on the new airport, which was also attended by President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo.             Budi mentioned that last year alone, passenger traffic at Adisutjipto reached 7.2 million people, while the airport's terminals were only built to handle 2.1 million passengers. The apron could also only cater to nine aircraft.                  In the first phase, state-owned airport operator AngkasaPura I will build a 3,250 meter x 60 meter runway in the location. In the second phase, the length of the runway will be extended by 350 meters.                   The construction of the first phase is targeted to be finished by March 2019."The new airport will also serve long-haul flights, with the furthest to Jeddah," Budi said. Land procurement for the airport, meanwhile, has reached 91 percent, the ministry reported.

16. Malayan tapir                      The Malayan tapir, also called the Asian tapir, is the largest of the five species of tapir and the only one native to Asia. The scientific name refers to the East Indies, the species' natural habitat. In the Malay language, the tapir is commonly referred to as cipan, tenuk or badak tampung.                       The animal is easily identified by its markings, most notably the light-colored patch that extends from its shoulders to its rear end. The rest of its hair is black, except for the tips of its ears, which, as with other tapirs, are rimmed with white. This pattern is for camouflage; the disrupted coloration makes it more difficult to recognize it as a tapir, and other animals may mistake it for a large rock rather than prey when it is lying down to sleep.                        Malayan tapirs grow to between 1.8 and 2.5 m in length, not counting a stubby tail of only 5 to 10 cm in length, and stand 90 to 110 cm tall. They typically weigh between 250 and 320 kg, although some adults can weigh up to 540 kg. The females are usually lager than the males. Like the other types of tapir, they have small, stubby tails and long, flexible proboscises. They have four toes on each front foot and three toes on each back foot. The Malayan tapir has rather poor eyesight, but excellent hearing and sense of smell.                        They have a large sagittal crest, a bone running along the middle of the skull that is necessary for muscle attachment. They also have unusually positioned orbits, an unusually shaped cranium with the frontal bones elevated, and a retracted nasal incision. All of these modifications to the normal mammal skull are, of course, to make room for the proboscis. This proboscis caused a retraction of bones and cartilage in the face during the evolution of the tapir, and even caused the loss of some cartilages, facial muscles, and the bony wall of the nasal chamber.                           Malayan tapirs have very poor eyesight, making them rely greatly on their excellent sense of smell and hearing to go about in their everyday lives. They have small, beady eyes with brown irises on either side of their faces. Their eyes are often covered in a blue haze, which is corneal cloudiness thought to be caused by repetitive exposure to light.                      Corneal cloudiness is when the cornea starts to lose its transparency. The cornea is necessary for the transmitting and focusing of outside light as it enters the eye, and cloudiness can cause vision loss. This causes the Malayan tapir to have very inadequate vision, both on land and in water, where they spend the majority of their time. Also, as these tapirs are most active at night and since they have poor eyesight, it is harder for them to search for food and avoid predators in the dark. " …; the disrupted coloration makes it more difficult to recognize it as a tapir"  The word 'disrupted' is closest in meaning to ….

36. New airport to cater to more travelers in Yogyakarta             The government expects a new international airport in Yogyakarta, once completed, will improve the satisfaction of travelers flying to and from the region, a popular destination for both domestic and international tourists.            The new airport, which is being built in KulonProgo regency, is expected to accommodate 50 million passengers annually. It will replace Adisutjipto International Airport, which currently serves a number of travelers far beyond its designated capacity.            "The previous airport's capacity can no longer contain the passenger traffic and the aircraft movement. There is also a limit to the area expansion [for the airport]," Budi said on Friday during a ceremony to break ground on the new airport, which was also attended by President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo.             Budi mentioned that last year alone, passenger traffic at Adisutjipto reached 7.2 million people, while the airport's terminals were only built to handle 2.1 million passengers.

40.                The popularity of mobile devices has had some dangerous consequences. We know that mobile communications are linked to a significant increase in distracted driving which results in injury and loss of life.                   The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that in 2010 driver distraction was the cause of 18 percent of all fatal crashes - with 3,092 people killed - and crashes resulting in an injury - with 416,000 people wounded.            The Virginia Tech Transportation Institute found that text messaging creates a crash risk 23 times worse than driving while not distracted. Eleven percent of drivers aged 18 to 20 who were involved in an automobile accident and survived admitted they were sending or receiving texts when they crashed. Distracted driving endangers life and property and the current levels of injury and loss are unacceptable. What is the best title of the text?

41. Among the environmental specters confronting humanity in the 21st century – global warming, the destruction of rain forests, overfishing of the oceans – a shortage of fresh water is at the top of the list, particularly in the developing world. Hardly a month passes without a new study making another alarming prediction, further deepening concern over what a World Bank expert calls the "grim arithmetic of water." Recently the United Nations said that 2.7 billion people would face severe water shortages by 2025 if consumption continuous at current rates. Fears about a parched future arise from a projected growth of world population from more than six billion today to an estimated nine billion in 2050. Yet the amount of fresh water on Earth is not increasing. Nearly 97 percent of the planet's water is salt water in seas and oceans. Close to 2 percents of Earth's water is frozen in polar ice sheets and glaciers, and a fraction of one percent is available for drinking, irrigation, and industrial use.              Gloomy water news, however, is not just a thing of the future: Today an estimated 1.2 billion people drink unclean water, and about 2.5 billion lack proper toilets or sewerage systems. More than five million people die each year from water-related diseases such as cholera and dysentery. All over the globe farmers and municipalities are pumping water out of the ground faster than it can be replenished.                Still, as I discovered on a two-month trip to Africa, India, and Spain, a host of individuals, organizations, and businesses are working to solve water's dismal arithmetic. The followings are the least meaning of the word "parched"

42. If someone is having a nose bleed, your priority is to control the bleeding and keep their airway open.

• Get them to sit down (not lie down) as keeping the nose above the heart will reduce bleeding.
• Get them to lean forward (not backwards), to make sure the blood drains out through their nose every ten minutes, until the bleeding stops.
• Encourage them not to speak, swallow, cough, spit or sniff because this may break blood clots that may have started to form in the nose.
• If the bleeding is severe, or if it lasts more than 30 minutes, call for medical help.

44. 18 Anwar Sadat 25 Jalan Jati Timur Bekasi 17117 13 November 2017 Hana Jelita 234 Rawamangun East Jakarta 13220 Dear Ms Jelita I am writing to you regarding Sarah Nabila. I have known Sarah personally for over ten years, and have always known her to be an organized, responsible and easy going individual. I believe that her skills and experience make her an excellent candidate for office manager in your organization. When I met Sarah, she had just left an administrative position in a busy Fashion House, where she was responsible for book keeping, answering phones and making appointments. During the time I have known her, Sarah has been active in our community, serving on the Library Board, the Historical Society. Her contributions included acting as Secretary of the Library Board, and heading the Historical Society's Annual Fund Drive. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me by phone or email. Regards Anwar Sadat What did Sarah do at the first time Anwar knew her?

46. Malayan tapir                      The Malayan tapir, also called the Asian tapir, is the largest of the five species of tapir and the only one native to Asia. The scientific name refers to the East Indies, the species' natural habitat. In the Malay language, the tapir is commonly referred to as cipan, tenuk or badak tampung.                       The animal is easily identified by its markings, most notably the light-colored patch that extends from its shoulders to its rear end. The rest of its hair is black, except for the tips of its ears, which, as with other tapirs, are rimmed with white. This pattern is for camouflage; the disrupted coloration makes it more difficult to recognize it as a tapir, and other animals may mistake it for a large rock rather than prey when it is lying down to sleep.                        Malayan tapirs grow to between 1.8 and 2.5 m in length, not counting a stubby tail of only 5 to 10 cm in length, and stand 90 to 110 cm tall. They typically weigh between 250 and 320 kg, although some adults can weigh up to 540 kg. The females are usually lager than the males. Like the other types of tapir, they have small, stubby tails and long, flexible proboscises. They have four toes on each front foot and three toes on each back foot. The Malayan tapir has rather poor eyesight, but excellent hearing and sense of smell.                        They have a large sagittal crest, a bone running along the middle of the skull that is necessary for muscle attachment. They also have unusually positioned orbits, an unusually shaped cranium with the frontal bones elevated, and a retracted nasal incision. All of these modifications to the normal mammal skull are, of course, to make room for the proboscis. This proboscis caused a retraction of bones and cartilage in the face during the evolution of the tapir, and even caused the loss of some cartilages, facial muscles, and the bony wall of the nasal chamber.                           Malayan tapirs have very poor eyesight, making them rely greatly on their excellent sense of smell and hearing to go about in their everyday lives. They have small, beady eyes with brown irises on either side of their faces. Their eyes are often covered in a blue haze, which is corneal cloudiness thought to be caused by repetitive exposure to light.                      Corneal cloudiness is when the cornea starts to lose its transparency. The cornea is necessary for the transmitting and focusing of outside light as it enters the eye, and cloudiness can cause vision loss. This causes the Malayan tapir to have very inadequate vision, both on land and in water, where they spend the majority of their time. Also, as these tapirs are most active at night and since they have poor eyesight, it is harder for them to search for food and avoid predators in the dark. What is the purpose of the text?

48. New airport to cater to more travelers in Yogyakarta             The government expects a new international airport in Yogyakarta, once completed, will improve the satisfaction of travelers flying to and from the region, a popular destination for both domestic and international tourists.            The new airport, which is being built in KulonProgo regency, is expected to accommodate 50 million passengers annually. It will replace Adisutjipto International Airport, which currently serves a number of travelers far beyond its designated capacity.            "The previous airport's capacity can no longer contain the passenger traffic and the aircraft movement. There is also a limit to the area expansion [for the airport]," Budi said on Friday during a ceremony to break ground on the new airport, which was also attended by President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo.             Budi mentioned that last year alone, passenger traffic at Adisutjipto reached 7.2 million people, while the airport's terminals were only built to handle 2.1 million passengers. The apron could also only cater to nine aircraft.                  In the first phase, state-owned airport operator AngkasaPura I will build a 3,250 meter x 60 meter runway in the location. In the second phase, the length of the runway will be extended by 350 meters.                   The construction of the first phase is targeted to be finished by March 2019."The new airport will also serve long-haul flights, with the furthest to Jeddah," Budi said. Land procurement for the airport, meanwhile, has reached 91 percent, the ministry reported.
