Sometimes when I pass some certain places in Jakarta, I often see piles of trash by the side of the street or even by the river. This view is annoying. It makes our city look ugly and very dirty. If we walk near the pile of trash, we could smell stinky odors coming from it.
Piles of trash, they bring the bacteria with them. Isn’t that very dangerous to our health if flies land on our food?
However, many people live around this mountain – like heap of trash. Many children play nearby. Also, a lot of women wash clothes and fruits and vegetables in the river that is contaminated by trash. This is terrible.
I think they don’t realize the danger, because they don’t have knowledge about living healthy. In my opinion, the government must make a regulation that people are not allowed to build houses near the trash disposal (dump site).
The government must protect their citizens, right?
Maybe there should be special officers, like police officers, who watch and catch people who throw trash on the ground or into the river.
The government should be harder, because trash has become a big, big problem for our city.
If a big fine doesn’t make people stop dropping litter everywhere, put them in jail.
I think to keep our environment clean and tidy needs hard work from both the citizens and the government.
Pertanyaannya adalah:
What is terrible according to the writer?
a. To know that piles of trash bring the bacteria with them.
b. To see many people enjoy living around heap of trash.
c. To walk near the pile of trash and smell stinky odors.
d. To know piles of trash by the side of the street.
e. To find that our city look ugly and dirty.

Do you have rice as your staple food? But have you ever thought how rice is served on your dining-table. Let’s see the process, shall we?
First of all, grains are grown on rice fields. When the grains are ripe enough, they are harvested and stored in silos. Later, they are sent into the mills to remove their husks. When the husks have been removed from the grains, they are called rice.
The rice is then kept in sacks. After that, the sacks are sent to the stores. The prices vary among the rice according to its quality. The rice is bought by the consumers and carried home.
At home, the rice is washed and cooked in a rice cooker or a simmer. Finally, when it is done, the rice becomes resilient. Now the rice is ready to serve on our dining-table.
Rice is the most important staple food in most parts of Asia. Asians grow and eat 95% of the world’s rice.

b. social life of ants
c. the body of ants
d. species of ants
e. sizes of ants
Jawaban Bpk/Ibu adalah yg A. Mohon penjelasan jawabannya ya, Pak/Bu. Apa yg dimaksud dengan 'features appearance?'
Ants are small insects. The body of an ant is clearly divided into three sections: the head, the thorax, and the gaster. (The narrow waist is actually within the abdomen, so the part of the abdomen behind the waist is called the gaster.) The waist can be made up of one or two small segments, depending on the species.
Ants are social insects living in colonies comprised of one or a few queens, and many workers. The queen generally stays deep and safe within a nest. Most ants that you see are workers and these are all females. Depending on species, workers may be similar in size, or come in a range of sizes.
Ants tend to come in dark or earth tones. Different species are black, earth-tone reds, pale tans, and basic browns.
Queen of ants if for one colonie.

Many young people have difficulty deciding where they will live when the time comes to leave home and make their own way in the world. Among the more common alternatives are sharing a house or flat with other young people, and finding full board, and lodgings in someone else’s home.
Renting a house with other young people offers a high degree of freedom and independence. On the down side, renting involves a variety of responsibilities that may be more than you wish to take on. This would mean you would be responsible for making large rental payments if one or more of the people you are sharing with should move out of the house or flat. It might also mean that you are held financially responsible if they damage dwelling.
Finding board and lodgings, on the other hand, has significant advantages. Generally you have no responsibility for the cleaning or maintenance of the dwelling or its gardens, other than to take reasonable care of your room. However, living in board and lodging circumstances has its drawbacks too. You have less freedom and flexibility in your lifestyle.
In the end, the decision each person makes will depend on their own personal valuing of independence and of convenience, as well as their feeling of readiness for taking on the considerable financial and other responsibilities of house or flat rental.

Jawaban yg masih buat saya bingung:
The final process of brick making is discussed on paragraph ………
a. one
b. two
c. three
d. four
e. five
Jawaban yg benar menurut Bpk/Ibu adalah yg D (di paragraf 4) berarti yg kiln (paragraph 5) tidak termasuk prosesnya ya, Pak/Bu? Mohon penjelasannya SEGERA.
Terima kasih
In olden times, many people who worked as brick makers were slaves or servants. If the master brick maker needed extra help, he could always bail someone out of jail and force them to work without any wages. They received one meal a day, and it was usually corn meal and bread.
Many events would happen during this brick making “business”. Now let me tell you the process. The first step of brick making process is to gather clay and mix it up by stepping in it. This is rather a very disgusting view.
Once the clay is clean enough, it is formed into bricks. The brick maker will roll it and then put it in a mold. The mold gives the brick its shape. Sometimes in the middle of the brick making process, the bricks are taken to the area where the bricks will be dried in the sun until they are hard enough to handle.
Afterward the bricks are piled up in the brickyard. The brickyard is the place where bricks are placed for the last time until it is time for them to go into the kiln.
The kiln is the final destination for the bricks. This is when and where the bricks will get baked.
Brick making is an important industry in many parts of the world. It is an activity that can take place in many forms, in large modern factories to small rural businesses. Although the process is simple, many techniques involved in the brick making process are subject to error, possibly reducing the quality of bricks.

Smoking is a bad habit that is very hard to break. Smokers are everywhere. Many people smoke just to socialize, but many others are too addicted to quit.
A cigarette is like a toxin hypermarket. You can find many kinds of toxin in it: acetone, carbon monoxide, tar, arsenic, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, and toluene. The tar itself contains more than 43 substances that can cause cancer. Scientists say that when we are smoking, we put more than 4,000 kinds of toxic materials into our body.
However, many smokers believed that a cigarette with low tar is less dangerous. And so is a filtered cigarette. But the problem is one cigarette is never enough for addicted smokers.
Another myth about smoking is that it cannot only make them awake but also raise their inspiration. This is contrary to the findings of a research in California which show that smokers’ ability to think is lower than of non-smokers.
Smoking is indeed a serious social problem in our country. The government keeps reminding that smoking is dangerous, not only for smokers themselves, but also for other people in the surroundings (passive smokers). But the warnings do not seem to get any response.

Wayang is an Indonesian and Malay word for puppet. The term refers to kinds of puppet theater, but sometimes it refers to the puppet itself. “Bayang”, the Javanese word for shadow or imagination, also connotes “spirit”. Performances of shadow puppet theater are accompanied by gamelan in Java and by gender wayang in Bali.
Wayang is a generic term denoting traditional theater in Indonesia. There is no evidence that wayang existed before Hinduism came to Southeast Asia. The first record of a wayang performance is from an inscription dated 930 CE which says “si Galigi mawayang” or “Sir Galigi played wayang”. Since that time, it seems certain features of traditional puppet theater remained. Hinduism arrived in Indonesia from India even before the Christian era and was slowly adopted as the local belief system. Sanskrit became the literary and court language of Java and later of Bali. The Hindus changed the Wayang (as did the Muslims, later) to spread their religion, mostly by stories from the Mahabharata or the Ramayana.
