Rafflesia can be found in the forests of Malaysia, Southern Thailand, Sumatra and
Java. But, Rafflesia flowers are fairly hard to locate. It is especially difficult to see
them in bloom. Its buds take up to 10 months to develop while its blossom lasts for
just a few days.
Rafflesia has brownish, scale like leaves and fleshy, smelling flowers of various
sizes, from few inches to meter big in diameter. We usually notice its large fleshy
flowers. There is a deep well in the centre of the flowers. The sexual organs are
located beneath the rim of the disk. Male and female flowers are separate.

dragons.

"Don't eat just before going to bed!" my mother used to tell me. "You might get a
nightmare." How right she was. I never believed her until it happened to me.
It was on a night when I felt hungry just as I was about to go to bed. So I made
myself a peanut-butter sandwich and a large cold glass of milk. After consuming
them I went to bed.
Soon I drifted off into a troubled sleep. I dreamt that I was with a group of people
looking for an old woman. I was not sure why we were looking for her but we all
seemed afraid of her. Somehow we had to find her. So there I was,searching high
and low for her in frightful places I had never been before. Sometimes I seemed to
be flying while at other times I seemed unable to move. The whole atmosphere
was one of fear, like a dreadful horror-movie in which I was a victim.
After some searching I entered a darkened room and saw a figure sleeping on a
bed. As I got nearer the figure suddenly threw away the blanket, got up and stared
at me. It was an ugly old woman with shiny golden teeth. She raised her claw-like
fingers and walked towards me.
I wanted to run but was unable to. I tried to scream but found that I could not. In
horror I struggled and struggled to get away from the frightful woman.
The next moment I gave a muffled yell and found myself panting on my bed. My
goodness, what a horrible nightmare it was! For a minute or so I lay on my bed not
daring to close my eyes for fear of falling asleep again and continuing the
nightmare. Then I sat up on my bed until the horrible feeling passed. From then on
I never eat just before going to sleep.

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their
role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000
known species of bees in nine recognized families though many are undescribed and the
actual number is probably higher. They are found on every continent except Antarctica,
in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the
nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in
males and 12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have two pairs of
wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or caste
has relatively short wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are
wingless.
The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose workers are about
2.1 mm (5/64") long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee
whose females can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae,
or sweat bees, are the most common type of bee in the Northern Hemisphere, though
they are small and often mistaken for wasps or flies.

An eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when one celestial object
moves into the shadow of another. The term is most often used to describe either
a solar eclipse, when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar
eclipse, when the Moon moves into the shadow of Earth.
Eclipses may occur when the Earth and Moon are aligned with the Sun,
and the shadow of one body cast by the Sun falls on the other. So at New Moon
(or rather Dark Moon), when the Moon is in conjunction with the Sun, the Moon
may pass in front of the Sun as seen from a narrow region on the surface of the
Earth and cause a solar eclipse. At Full Moon, when the Moon is in opposition
to the Sun, the Moon may pass through the shadow of the Earth, and a lunar
eclipse is visible from the night half of the Earth.
An eclipse does not happen at every New or Full Moon, because the
plane of the orbit of the Moon around the Earth is tilted with respect to the
plane of the orbit of the Earth around the Sun, so as seen from the Earth, when
the Moon is nearest to the Sun (New Moon) or at largest distance (Full Moon),
the three bodies usually are not exactly on the same line.
5.
What is the main idea of the third paragraph?
A.
B.
C.
D.
We can see the surface of the Moon from the Earth.
The Sun is the biggest planet in our solar system.
An eclipse never happens at New or Full Moon.
The Sun and the Moon rotate on the same line.

Mahogany
In the natural rainforest, Mahogany is a very large canopy tree, sometimes reaching
over 150 feet in height, with trunks sometimes more than 6 feet in diameter above a large
basal buttress. It is a generally open-crowned tree, with gray to brownish-red fissured bark.
Mahogany is perhaps the most valuable timber tree in the whole of Latin America and
has been heavily exploited for most of this century. Mahogany is becoming increasingly
rare, and is already extinct in parts of its original range. It is listed as threatened in "Arboles
Maderables en Peligro de Extinción en Costa Rica" and is listed in CITES Appendix III.
Mahogany varies from yellowish, reddish, pinkish, or salmon colored when freshly cut,
to a deep rich red, to reddish brown as the wood matures with age. Mahogany is fine to
medium texture, with uniform to interlocking grain, ranging from straight to wavy or curly.
Irregularities in the grain often produce highly attractive figures such as fiddle back or
mottle. Mahogany polishes to a high luster, with excellent working and finishing
characteristics. It responds well to hand and machine tools, has good nailing and screwing
properties, and turns and carves superbly.
Mahogany is regarded by many as the world's premier wood for fine cabinetry, highclass furniture, trimming fine boats, pianos and other musical instruments, sculpture, joinery,
turnery, figured and decorative veneer, interior trim, and carving.
3. What makes Mahogany becoming increasingly rare?
A. Its size
B. Its exploitation
C. Its quality
D. Its value
Kunci jawaban: B
Yang menyebabkan pohon itu semakin langka adalah karena dieksploitasi.
Steven Paul Jobs was born on 24 February 1955 in San Francisco, California, to
Abdulfattah Jandali and Joanne who gave him up for adoption. He was taken in by Paul and
Clara Jobs, and grew up with them in Mountain View, California.
He attended Homestead High School in Cupertino California and went to Reed
College in Portland Oregon in 1972 but dropped out after only one semester, staying on to
"drop in" on courses that interested him.
He took a job with video game manufacturer Atari to raise enough money for a trip
to India and returned from there a Buddhist.
Back in Cupertino he returned to Atari where his old friend Steve Wozniak was still
working. Wozniak was building his own computer and in 1976 Jobs pre-sold 50 of the as-yet
unmade computers to a local store and managed to buy the components on credit solely on
the strength of the order, enabling them to build the Apple I without any funding at all.
The Apple II followed in 1977 and the company Apple Computer was formed shortly
afterwards. By the time production of the Apple II ended in 1993 it had sold over 6 million
units.
In 1985 Jobs was fired from Apple and immediately founded another computer
company, NeXT.
In the meantime, in 1986, Jobs bought The Computer Graphics Group from
Lucasfilm. The group was responsible for making high-end computer graphics hardware but
under its new name, Pixar, it began to produce innovative computer animations. Their first
title under the Pixar name, Luxo Jr. (1986) won critical and popular acclaim and in 1991
Pixar signed an agreement with Disney, with whom it already had a relationship, to produce
a series of feature films, beginning with Toy Story (1995).
In 1996 Apple bought NeXT and Jobs returned to Apple, becoming its CEO. In
2003, Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and underwent surgery in 2004. Despite
the success of this operation he became increasingly ill and received a liver transplant in
2009. He returned to work after a six month break but eventually resigned his position in
August 2011 after another period of medical leave which began in January 2011. He died on
5 October 2011.

My Worst Mistake
Hi Diary,
I‟ve just had the worst day ever! It all began at morning break. This horrible boy
came over and pushed me for no reason. When I pushed him back I was the one who got
into trouble. I was given a nasty note from Ms Thomas to take home to mom.
Later when mum read the note she blamed me – she wouldn‟t even listen to my
side of things. It‟s not fair. Now I‟m grounded for a month and all I did was stick up for
myself.
Still I have learned one thing today – violence won‟t solve my problems but
telling tales just might!

A. Good report from school
B. The photo of the horrible boy
C. The nasty note from Ms. Thomas
D. Punishment letter from the principal
Kunci jawaban: C
Yang harus diberikan untuk ibunya adalah note dari Ms. Thomas, seperti yang disebutkan dalam
paragraph pertama kalimat terakhir.

Dear Sabrina,
Please let me express my deepest sympathies to you and the children. I was shocked and
shattered when I heard about Frank's horrific accident. I can't even imagine what you
have been going through for the past ten days.
As you know, Frank and I have been colleagues and friends for the past eight years. His
tragic loss leaves a terrible void in our office. He was so well-liked and respected by
everyone who came into contact with him, both colleagues and clients alike. He had
tremendous people skills, and as such, was a role model in our company and the industry
at large. I trust that, when they are older, the children will be made aware of what an
outstanding person Frank was in his professional life.
Sabrina, please feel free to contact me if I can help in any way while you go through this
very difficult period. I will support you in any way that I can should you reach out to
me.
Also, please tell the children how terribly devastated all of us are here at the company
due to their Father's tragic passing.
Sincere sympathy,
Darlene Francis

When I just hang out in a mall one day, I saw a very beautiful bag. I love this bag
at the first sight. This was the first time I've spent much money on a bag and I don't
regret it.
The bag is wonderful. It is made of thin but strong leather. The weight is
light and the size keeps it from getting stuffed with junk. It has a long shoulder strap
that I like because it keeps the bag hands-free. Its neutral color is fun and sporty. The
design is simple and well-made.
The bag is very functional. It is the perfect size to carry a cell phone, a
pocket-sized wallet, a small book, a pack of gum, and pens. It also fits well into my
laptop backpack for bike commuting to school. This bag also has more pockets inside
so my small items don't all fall to the bottom. In overall I really satisfy with bag.

A scorpion and a tortoise became such fast friends that they took a vow that they would never
separate. So when it happened that one of them was obliged to leave his native land, the other
promised to go with him. They had traveled only a short distance when they came to a wide river.
The scorpion was now greatly troubled.
"Alas," he said, "you, my friend, can easily swim, but how can a poor scorpion like me ever get
across this stream?"
"Never fear," replied the tortoise; "only place yourself squarely on my broad back and I will carry
you safely over."
No sooner was the scorpion settled on the tortoise's broad back, than the tortoise crawled into the
water and began to swim. Halfway across he was startled by a strange rapping on his back, which
made him ask the scorpion what he was doing.
"Doing?" answered the scorpion. "I am whetting my sting to see if it is possible to pierce your hard
shell."
"Ungrateful friend," responded the tortoise, "it is well that I have it in my power both to save myself
and to punish you as you deserve." And straightway he sank his back below the surface and shook

It's a beautiful morning. The parakeets and their king perch on a branch of tree. They do not

The hunter throws his net towards the parakeets. Some parakeets and the parakeet king are
caught under the net. The parakeets are scared but the parakeet king tells them what to do.
"Relax. I have a plan. We all pretend to be dead. When the hunter lifts the net up, we fly fast

the parakeets are dead.
"Oh no! I can't sell dead birds to people." He then lifts the net up. Not long after that, the

parakeets peck the birdcage. Slow but sure, the birdcage is destroyed. Then the parakeet

Birds
Birds are a group of animals called vertebrates, or animals with backbones. They form
the class Aves.
They are warm-blooded and lay eggs. Their bodies are covered with feathers and they
have wings. Their bones are hollow. This makes them lighter and allows many of them to fly.
Birds have two legs usually covered with scales (small, flat hard plates which over-lap in the
same way as feathers). They have a hard beak with no teeth. Because birds keep a high body
temperature, they use lots of energy. So, they need to eat a lot of food compared with their
weight. More than 9000 different species of birds are known.
Birds are found on every continent of the world. Birds of different types can live in
freezing cold environments, and others can live in hot desserts. Birds live in forests, in
grasslands, on cliff faces, in river banks, on stony sea shores, down mine shafts and in the
grooves of houses.

A stuntman has a very exciting and interesting life. He or she gets to do everything and anything that is too
dangerous for the actor/actress. The biggest problem with a stuntman career is that the work is not always there.
If you have the connections, being a stuntman is a great adventurous career.
A stuntman's earnings are determined by several factors. As a beginner, you most likely won't make the money
that you expect, but once you have experience and have a good reputation, you can sometimes name your price.
Salaries can range as low as $5,000 to $70,000 and more per year. Remember stunt people do the more
adventurous parts of the movie, but no one sees you.
A stunt person goes where ever the movie industry goes and the movie industry goes everywhere. You may
have to work from 4 AM to 10 or 11 PM and then get up at four again the next morning. A stunt person's work
is done in all types of weather and is most likely done outside. There are generally more men than women in the
business and by the age of 40, you are usually too old to do stunt work.
The easiest way to become a stunt person is to bypass the education and just grow up with stunt work. It is
common for stunt work knowledge and skills to be handed down from one generation to the next. Not every
person is capable of being in the stunt business. It takes lots of courage, guts, and ambition. Some skills are
taught at stunt schools in places like California and Florida that you could enter to learn from professionals.
35. What is a stuntman?
A. A profession that demands training.
B. A job that leads someone to popular star.
C. Someone who trains actress/actor for dangerous scene.
D. Someone who replaces actress/actor for dangerous scene.

Gregory is my beautiful Persian cat. He walks with pride and grace, performing a dance of disdain as he
slowly lifts and lowers each paw with the delicacy of a ballet dancer. His pride, however, does not extend to his
appearance, for he spends most of his time indoors watching television and growing fat. He enjoys TV
commercials, especially those for Meow Mix and 9 Lives. His familiarity with cat food commercials has led
him to reject generic brands of cat food in favor for only the most expensive brands.
Gregory is a finicky about visitors as he is about what he eats, befriending some and repelling others.
He may snuggle up against your ankle, begging to be petted, or he may imitate a skunk and stain your favorite
trousers. Gregory does not do this to establish his territory, as many cat experts think, but to humiliate me
because he is jealous of my friends.

Camping is one of activity that my family loves very much. All my family just loved the nice atmosphere of the
camping site. We just want the life with no traffic which it means no noise sometimes. The twittering of birds
and the sound of the wind blowing are the things we would like to enjoy. We usually go camping at the end of
the months.
Last month we went camping in the mountainous area. My father‟s colleague recommended this camping site.
We fell in love with this place at the first sight. It is really a nice spot for the tent. Arriving at the campsite, we
were busy with our own duties. After my father struggled hard to put up the tent this afternoon, my mom
brought some food for dinner. Everything was in place for a great family camping trip. We slept soundly in tent
under a sparkling night sky, and woke up early because of the chattering monkeys. No hustle or bustle. This
dark morning was very quiet with the soft light of lanterns. We had a nice chat inside the warm tents.
After breakfast- just delicious home-cooked food- we hiked to the Crater Lake. It was a great place. We were at
peace with nature, a perfect place to slow down and recharge. We walked (for the surefooted) around the rim of
the crater. Hidden on the shores of a deep volcanic lake, the crater offered lovely views the plains. This camping
activity was the most memorable back-to-nature experience I ever have!

The Girl and the Toad
Once there lived a kind and gentle maiden in remote Korean village. She was very poor and barely managed to
make a living for herself and her old mother, whom she had to care for all alone.
One day the girl was in the kitchen, scooping up freshly-cooked rice and putting it in a large bowl to carry to
the dinner table. Suddenly a toad appeared in the kitchen as if from nowhere. It crawled over the floor,
shivering, and dragged its body to where the girl was standing. Then it jumped heavily onto the kitchen hearth.
On the hearth were a few grains of rice the girl had spilled while emptying the pot. The toad hungrily ate up the
rice.
“My, you must really be hungry. And you look cold, too,” the girl said. “Here, have some more rice. And why
don‟t you stay right here on the warm hearth?”
She spilled about half a ladleful of rice out on the hearth. The toad looked up the girl in gratitude and
gobbled up that rice too, all the while wriggling his puffy throat.
Well, you can imagine that from that day on, the toad made his home there on the warm kitchen hearth
and would eat rice out of the girl‟s hands. This way of life continued day after, until a whole year had passed.
By this time the toad had grown into a huge creature.

A galaxy is collection of stars and other astronomical bodies, including planets, comets and asteroids, held
together by gravity.
There are many different physical forms and measurements of galaxies. These include the spiral, barrelspiral and elliptical. Our galaxy, called the Milky Way, is approximately 100,000 light years in width and
contains over billion stars.
The centre of galaxies can contain many young, very hot stars as well as older stars. Swirling clouds that
have been energized by magnetic forces also exist in the centre.
At this point in time, no one knows the exact number of galaxies in the universe. Astronomers are, however,
learning more and more about them every day.

Patrick never did his homework. “too boring”, he said. He played basketball and basketball instead. His
teacher told him, “Patrick! Do your homework or you won‟t learn a thing.” And it‟s true, sometimes he did feel
like a dig-a-ling. But what could he do? He hated homework.
Then one day, his cat was playing with a little doll and he grabbed it away. To his surprise, it wasn‟t a doll at
all, but a man of the tiniest size. He had a little wool shirt with old fashioned trousers and a high tall hat much
like a witch‟s. he yelled, “Save me! Don‟t give me back to that cat. I‟ll grant you a wish, I promise you that.”
Patrick couldn‟t believe how lucky he was! Here was the answer to all of his problems. So he said, “Only if you
do all my homework until the end of the semester, that‟s 35days. If you do a good enough job, I could even get
A‟s.”
The little man‟s face wrinkled like a dishcloth thrown in the hamper. He kicked his legs and pursued his lips,
“Oh, am I cursed! But I will do it.”
And true to his word, that little elf began to do Patrick‟s homework. Except there was one glitch. The elf didn‟t
always know what to do and needed help. “Help me! Help me!” He‟d say. And Patrick would have to help – in
whatever way.
“I don‟t know this word,” the elf squeezed while reading Patrick‟s homework. “Get me a dictionary. No, what‟s
even better. Look up the word and sound it out by each letter.”
When it came to Math, Patrick was out of luck. “What are times tables?” the elf shrieked. “We elves
never need that. And addition and subtraction and division and fractions. Here, sit down beside me, you simply
must guide me.”
Elves knew nothing of human history, to them it‟s a mystery. So the little elf, already a shouter, just got louder.
“Go to the library, I need books. More and more books. And you can help me red them, too.”
As a matter of fact, every day in every way that little elf was a nag! Patrick was working harder than ever and it
was a drag! He was staying up nights, had never felt so weary, and was going to school with his eyes puffed and
bleary.
Finally, the last day of school arrived and the elf was free to go. Since there was no more homework, he
quietly and slyly slipped out the back door.
Patrick got his A‟s and his classmates were amazed. His teachers smiled and were full of praise. And his
parents? They wondered that had happened to Patrick. He was now the model kid: cleaned his room, did his
chores, was cheerful, never rude, like he had developed a whole new attitude.
You see, in the end Patrick still thought he‟d made that tiny man do all his homework. But I‟ll share a secret,
just between you and me. It wasn‟t elf; Patrick had done it himself!
