CHAMELEONS
There are 80 different types of chameleons in the world, most of which are to be found in Africa, south of the Sahara desert. The common chameleon ranges from the Middle East, along the North African coast to southern Spain.
The chameleon is a slow-moving lizard which hunts for insects among trees and undergrowth. One of its peculiar features is its eyes, which are set in two conical sockets and can move independently of one another. This enables the chameleon to look behind with one eye and in front with the other.
Chameleons are well-known for their ability to change color. The skin and body markings can change color to match the surroundings. Among the plants, for example, the chameleon is very difficult to spot among foliage.
When the chameleon spots an insect which it thinks would make a fine meal, it shoots out a long, sticky tongue and draws its prey back into its mouth.
Pertanyaannya adalah:
Which of the following ideas is NOT mentioned in the text?
a. Distribution of chameleons
b. Description of chameleons
c. Chameleons’ ability to make a fine meal
d. Chameleons’ ability to change color

It must have been about two in the morning when we returned home. I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the door bell, but she was fast asleep. So, I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bed room window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said,
“I don’t think the window need cleaning at this time of the night.”
I look down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted answering in the way I did, but I said, “I enjoy cleaning windows at night.”
“So do I” answered the policeman in the same tone. “Excuse my interrupting you, but would you mind coming with me to the station?”
“Well, I’d prefer to stay here, I’ve forgotten my key.”
“Your what?” he called.
“My key,” I shouted; fortunately, my wife opened the door just hearing my shouting when the policeman started to climb toward him for arresting.
