This text is for questions 18 to 20. We Should Change the Payment System Nowadays, the system of payment gradually changes. Most people use debit cards instead of cash to make payment. They think it is more effective, efficient, easier, and simpler. However, there are still arguments about the use of debit cards as a method of payment. Well, if you use the card, you will say that the card is so practical. You don’t need to count how much you should pay. When paying in cash, people are afraid of making mistakes in counting the banknote for both the payment and the change. With debit cards the mistakes is made smaller. Moreover, you should know that the debit cards are safer than money. Suppose you bring a lot of money when travelling. If it is lost or stolen, you will be left with nothing in your hands. However, if you bring a debit card, you can just phone the bank which issues the card to block it. On the other hand, people who disagree on the use of debit card will say that its use is so limited. When you buy something in a traditional market, or a vendor, for example, can you pay using a credit card? Of course not. Another thing is that, if you want to use the card, you should make a purchase at minimum amount. If you make less than the minimum transaction, you cannot make use of the card. For those reasons we think that credit cards are not fully effective as a means of payment. We should trace the incoming and ongoing money in our account. Besides, we have to control our habit of buying first, paying later

habit. Otherwise, without being realized we are charged a lot. You don’t have to use credit cards if not necessary.

18. What is the text about? A. Differences between payments by cash and credit cards. B. The disadvantages of paying in cash. C. The advantages of using credit cards. D. The advantages of using debit cards. E. Different payment systems.

19.

According to the text, one advantage of using the debit card is that …. A. it cannot be stolen B. it is as practical as using cash C. we can use it everywhere for shopping D. the possibility of mistakes in counting is smaller E. we can make a purchase at minimum amount

20. What is paragraph 3 about? A. Debit cards for travelling. B. The advantage of debit cards over cash. C. The safety system of debit cards. D. What to do when you lose cash. E. How to bring a debit card.

Having to visit the dentist every six months may not be the appointment that everyone looks forward to, but it is one of the most important ones to keep. People should consider having dental check-ups at least every six months. Firstly, having our teeth professionally cleaned every six months allows hygieniests to use their special instruments to remove plaque from your teeth that your tooth brush and floss are unable to get before it eventually hardens into tartar. This preventive method can help prevent decay and gum disease, both problems that can result in future dental problems. Secondly, getting an exam twice a year allows a dentist to check your teeth and look for any signs of decay or changes from your past visit. While you won’t need x-rays with every six month visit, having a dental exam can help identify and correct small dental problems before they get worse. Thirdly, if you have a fast rate of decay and tend to get cavities quickly, it is important that you not only go twice a year but possibly more frequently to help prevent dental problems. Other candidates who may require more frequent

visits include smokers. diabetics, pregnant women and those who already have been diagnosed with gum disease. In conclusion, checking your dental health regularly brings more benefits than we could realize. Therefore, people should have a consistent period for dental check-ups. 23. The main idea of paragraph two is …. A. we should remove plaque to avoid dental problems B. we should brush our teeth in order to prevent toothache C. we should prevent dental problems using toothbrush and floss D. we should have our teeth cleaned by a hygienist regularly to prevent dental problems E. we should allow hygienists use their special instruments to prevent dental problems

The following text is for questions 25 and 26 Batu Cermin Cave is located near Labuan Bajo, East Nusa Tenggara. The cave covers an area of over 19 hectares and 75 meters high. The sunlight that breaks on the sidelines of the stone is reflected, so it gives the impression of gloss on the stone. The reflection stone later became the origin name of Batu Cermin Cave. The stone in Batu Cermin Cave contains salt particles causing the stone

to sparkle when it is exposed to light. To enjoy the gleaming stone, tourists need to go down 20 meter deep through the 200 meter narrow tunnel of the cave. In a rainy season, visitors can only enjoy the glowing puddle of water in the cave. Batu Cermin Cave also has stalactites and stalagmites.

The following text is for questions 31 to 33 High mountain barriers, cold ocean currents and high pressure systems cause the deserts to remain dry. When warm air passes over the ocean, it picks up moisture in the form of water vapor. As this moist air travels over the land, it rises to pass over mountain ranges. When it begins to rise, the air cools and this causes the water vapor to condense into droplets which fall as rain. When the air reaches the other side of the mountain barrier, it has lost all its moisture and so the other side of the mountain remains dry. Air passing over cold ocean currents is cooled and therefore is unable to pick up and hold much moisture. When this cold air mass reaches the warm desert, any moisture in the air is evaporated and, it does not fall as rain. So the desert remains dry. In a high pressure system, the air is dry and is moving downwards. As this system moves over the land, it draws the moisture from the land surface. Consequently, the moisture does not fall as rain and so the desert remains dry. 31. What is the text about? A. Why desert remains dry. B. How moisture falls as rain. C. Why the air becomes cool. D. How the air is evaporated into moisture. E. How the moist air vapors on the mountain barriers. 32. What happens when the moist air rises and passes the mountain ranges? A. The high pressure system change them into droplets. B. The cool air makes it condensed and fall as rain. C. The cold ocean currents suck them again. D. The air cycle begins and ends in rain. E. It loses all its moisture.

33. “As this moist air travels over the land, it rises to pass over the mountain ranges.” (paragraph two). What does the underlined word refer to? A. Warm air. B. Ocean. C. Moist air. D. Cool air. E. Water vapor.

This text is for questions 34 and 35 Beavers are famously busy, and they turn their talents to reengineering the landscape as few other animals can. When sites are available, beavers burrow in the banks of rivers and lakes. But they also transform less suitable habitats by building dams. Felling and gnawing trees with their strong teeth and powerful jaws, they create massive log, branch, and mud structures to block streams and turn fields and forests into the large ponds that beavers love. Domelike beaver homes, called lodges, are also constructed of branches and mud. They are often strategically located in the middle of ponds and can only be reached by underwater entrances. These dwellings are home to extended families of parents, young kids, and the babies born the previous spring. Beavers are among the largest of rodents. They are herbivores and prefer to eat leaves, bark, twigs, roots, and aquatic plants. These large rodents move with an ungainly waddle on land but are graceful in the water, where they use their large, webbed rear feet like swimming fins, and their paddle-shaped tails like rudders. These attributes allow beavers to swim at speeds of up to five miles (eight kilometers) an hour. They can remain underwater for 15 minutes without surfacing since they have a set of transparent eyelids that function much like goggles. Their fur is naturally oily and waterproof. There are two species of beavers, which are found in the forests of North America, Europe, and Asia. These animals are active all winter, swimming and foraging in their ponds even when a layer of ice covers the surface. Adopted from: https://www.pinterest.com.au/pin/347340189990315059/

2012 Film Review 2012 is Roland Emmerich’s film which uses the Mayan Calendar and other end-of-days prophecies for their doomsday scenario. It imagines the world coming to an end in 2012. 2012 film brings off a series of wonders. The movie hits its peak early on. It stars when Cusack drives a limo through the streets of Los Angeles as freeway and skyscrapers crumble all around him from the shock of a 10.5 earthquake. The preposterous flying sequence is equally thrilling. The climax occurs aboard the giant ark. When an equipment malfunction almost threatens the entire mission. Unfortunately, the crucial sequence is not filmed or edited with the requisite clarity. In 2012 film, Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to exactly what is happening to whom. However, Emmerich’2012 deserves credit for offbeat casting. Cusack supplies his trademark hangdog charm. McCarthy has perhaps his best role ever as Peet’s cocky. Danny Glover lends dignity to the role of the tormented president. Chiwetel Ejiofor, as the chief scientist, brings a moving sense of anguish to a stock role. Platt has fun playing the villain of the piece, and Woody Harrelson also chews the scenery as a bug-eyed radio prophet trying to warn his listeners about Armageddon. All in one, 2012’s cinematography, production design and visual effects are award-worthy. Music also propels the movie. It presents American Idol runner-up, Adam Lambert, who provides a rousing anthem over the end credits. 36. The writer of the film 2012 was.... A. Adam Lambert B. Danny Glover C. Cusack D. Roland Emmerich E. Nick Everhart

37.Which part of the film should be improved? A.The music. B.Visual effect. C.The equipment. D.Crucial sequence. E. The design. 38. “The movie hits its peak early on “(paragraph 2) The underlined word is closest in meaning to.... A. average B. top C. failure D. name E. descent Read the following text and answer the question. A lot has changed in the world since John Doe established “Doe Radio and Television Service”. Because we are now a leader in computer and cellular telephone service, we are changing our name to “Doe Electronic Technologies”. We think John would be pleased. As part of this event, we invite you to stop by anytime during the next month to receive a special 20% discount on any compact discs, computer equipment, or cellular phones. It is always a pleasure to serve you. 39. Which item is on discount 20%? A. Radios. B. Services. C. Telephones. D. Televisions. E. Compact disc.

This text is for questions 42 to 45. One afternoon a big wolf waited in a dark forest for a little girl to come along carrying a basket of food to her grandmother. Finally a little girl did come along and she was carrying a basket of food. “Are you carrying that basket to your grandmother?” asked the wolf. The little girl said yes, she was. So the wolf asked her where her grandmother lived and the little girl told him and he disappeared into the woods. When the little girl opened the door of her grandmother’s house she saw there was somebody on bed with a nightcap and nightgown on. She had approached no nearer than twenty-five feet from the bed when she saw that it was not her grandmother but wolf, for even in a nightcap a wolf doesn’t look any more like her grandmother. So the little girl took an automatic gun out of the basket and shot the wolf dead.
