I’m surprised that Soekarno – Hatta airport was awarded the “No. 4 clean toilet” position, while we all know that this airport has one of the dirtiest and smelliest toilet facilities.
At Soekarno – Hatta, an airport which stays busy 24 hours a day, toilet attendees are gone by 10 p.m. and the toilets are an utter disgrace.
I propose that toilet operators should teach and train employees how to do the job properly as these facilities should be cleaned and disinfected at regular intervals.
People should also be educated not to squat on toilet pots. Signs should be put up on places which they can read to solve this problem. The toilet users should pay some money as long as the toilets are exceptionally clean and non-smelly.

1. Which of the followings becomes the suitable title for the text above?
a. The Soekarno – Hatta airport is the “No. 4 clean toilet”

d. Should The Soekarno – Hatta airport be awarded the “No. 4 clean toilet?”
e. Should The Soekarno – Hatta airport stay busy 24 hours a day?

FROM TEA TREE TO A CUP OF TEA
For many years, Indonesia has produced thousands of kilograms of tea every year for its people and for international trade. Have you ever thought about how the tea gets from the tree to your cup? You should know about it.
First, tea trees are grown in tea plantations in hilly and cool areas. Next, the tea leaves are picked by the tea-leave pickers and the leaves are dried under the sun for about a day until they are almost dry. After that, the tea leaves of good quality are selected and they are finely sliced by a cutting-machine. They are then dried once again.
When the process has finished, the tea is put into boxes or bags. Later, the tea is delivered to stores, supermarkets, perhaps a shop near your home or exported for international markets.
When you drink your tea, you can think about the many people who have worked together to produce the tea and bring it to you.

Durian, native to Brunei, Indonesia and Malaysia, has been known to the western world for about 600 years. The name of durian itself comes from the Malay word “duri” (thorn).
Widely known in Southeast Asia as the “King of Fruits”, durian is distinctive for its large size, unique odor and formidable thorn-covered husk. The fruit can grow up to 30 centimeters long and 15 centimeters in diameter, and typically weighs one to three kilograms. Its shape ranges from oblong to round. The color of its husk ranges from green to brown, and its flesh ranges from pale-yellow to golden yellow, depending on the species.

The seeds can also be eaten when cooked.

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.
Pertanyaannya adalah:
What is the communicative purpose of the above text?
a. to persuade the readers that a certain things is the case
b. to state the points of view of the case
c. to explain the process of certain formation
d. to describe the way things are
e. to share experiences about the case
Saya benar – benar masih bingung dengan tujuan teks antara hortatory exposition dan analytical exposition karena saya pernah belajar kalau tujuan dari teks Analytical Exposition itu adalah ‘to convince the readers to agree with the writer’s viewpoint by analyzing a certain issue within the text.’ Sedangkan tujuan dari teks Hortatory Exposition itu adalah ‘to persuade the readers to accept the writer’s point of view by showing the information in a logical way.’Saya juga pernah belajar kalau tujuan dari teks Analytical Exposition itu adalah ‘to persuade the reader or listener that something is the case.’ Sedangkan tujuan dari teks Hortatory Exposition itu adalah ‘to persuade the reader or listener that something should or should not be the case.’ Bagaimana perbedaannya ya, Pak/Bu karena sama – sama ada kata ‘to persuade’ sedangkan di teks bacaan – bacaan yang sudah saya pelajari itu kalau di Analytical Exposition paragraf terakhirnya berupa conclusion, tidak ada recommndationnya seperti teks “SMOKING” yang saya tanyakan diatas.
Jadi untuk teks “SMOKING” diatas jawaban yg benar yg mana ya, Pak/Bu? Yg A / yg B? Mohon penjelasannya.

Ant-eaters are perhaps the most curious looking animals.
Their long head and snout look like tubes, and they have no teeth at all. Their front legs are very strong and armed with heavy curved claws with which they break open the nets of ants and termites and then, when the insects rush out, use their long, sticky tongues to lick them up at great speed.
True ant-eaters are found in the swamps and forests of Central and South America. Scaly ant-eaters, or pangolins, are found in Africa and tropical Asia.
Various other insect-eating animals are sometimes called ant-eaters, although they really belong to other groups of animals. One of them is the ant-bear, which lives on the plains of South and Central Africa. This has long, erect ears but short blunt claws, an almost hairless tail, yellow brown in color. Unlike the true ant-eaters, it has small teeth.
Pertanyaannya adalah:
Unlike the true ant-eaters, it has small teeth. (last paragraph)
It means ………
a. the true ant-eaters have no teeth
b. the true ant-eaters have small teeth
c. the ant-bear has no teeth
