EXAMPLE :

Fast food nowadays is considered a normal eating venture. People are not just eating out on special occasions or weekends anymore. It means that all the time they mostly eat fast foods. However is fast food good for health? 

Fast food has its popularity in the 1940’s. Within a few years, fast-food operations popped up everywhere. With the compelling rise in fast-food restaurants since the 1940’s, oddly it started the rise in obesity and cancer during that same time period.

Fast food is highly processed with a wide array of additives. To ensure fast food’s low cost, the fast food products are made with highly-processed ingredients to give it shelf-life, to hold consistency, and to enhance flavor. Fast food is altered from its original healthy form.

It is not the calories in fast food which damage health and waistline. It is the chemical additives such as aspartame and MSG (monosodium glutamate). Studies show that the chemical additives lead to weight and disease issues.

So, there is absolutely nothing nutritional about fast food. Fast food simply feeds hunger and craving.

The following is for the question number 32 to 35

Most of teenagers need to go to school and there are a lot of schools over there. Nowadays, schools grow to offer plenty of choice; private and state ones. However it is a hard choice since there are many factors which need to be considered before making the selection. Some will be influenced by friends; because some friend got to certain school than we go to there too. Some prefer to choose certain school because of the closer distance. In fact, the primary decisive matter for selecting school is whether the school has been accredited or not. Why is important to choose an accredited school?

Well, accredited schools have an edge over the unaccredited schools. This label of Accredited School has an impact in employment opportunities. As result, if there are two or more students with similar qualifications, the student who comes from the accredited school will have an edge over the other candidate. Student from an accredited school has more open door than student with an unaccredited one.

Many students select certain school depending more on short term factors like friend influence and short distance from home. It is not bad since commuting actually needs much cost. Choosing school which is closer to home will save time, energy and money. However if that school is not accredited, the time and money spent along studying seems to be waste in the long term because it could become a limiting factor in gaining future opportunities.

Accredited school is not the only factor which will drive student’s success. Personality and characterization are very important too. However a student with good personality who comes from an accredited school is better than the others. 

32. After reading the passage, we can decide that the text is possibly entitled … 

A. Accredited School

B. Accredited school is in particular condition comparable with unaccredited school

C. Accredited school is better than unaccredited school

D. The reasons why students choose accredited school 

E. The students of accredited school are better than of the unaccredited ones

34. Based on the text, we can infer that… 

A. Students have similar certain principles in choosing schools 

B. Students with good personality must come from accredited schools 

C. Student who comes from accredited school must be better than student who comes from another unaccredited school

D. Student from an accredited school has more possible choice in future employment than student with an accredited one.

E. Accredited school warrants its students’ success.

The following is for the question number 36 to 39

Students’ cheating is one of the biggest problems faced by teachers nowadays.

     Despite the fact that teachers advise their students not to do dishonest acts during tests, some students still do cheating. There are many kinds of cheating that students do during the test or examination, such as looking other students’ work, put some notes under their clothes, write notes or formulas on their desks, make hand signals or go to rest rooms to get the answers from their friends

     In my view, students who do cheating are committing a crime. It is a sort of taking something illegally. This crime causes negative results to the students. Students who always cheat deteriorate their mental capacity. Cheating acts also create dependence. They weaken their self confidence. Instead of preparing for the coming test, they are busy to organize notes on a piece of paper. If this awful habit continues, the students will lose their opportunity to develop their intellectual and mind.

      Therefore, school should consider cheating as a very serious problem. School board and administration should go hand in hand to overcome this matter. Honesty must be put in school’s vision.  Harsh punishment must be applied to students who commit this crime.  

36. What is mainly discussed in the text?

A. School policy.

B. Harsh punishment.

C. Cheating as a crime.

D. Mental deterioration.

E. Different ways of cheating.

37. What will the school do to eliminate students who commit cheating?

A. Create a good vision.

B. Select honest students. 

C. Make harsh punishment 

      D. Make students confident 

E. Administer the school affair

38.  ‘Students who always cheat deteriorate their mental capacity.’ (Paragraph 3)

     The underlined word means ….

A. support

B. worsen

C. cause

D. create

E. find

39. ‘They weaken their self confidence.’ (Paragraph 3)

      What does ‘they’ refer to?

A. Tests

B. Papers

C. Results

D. Students

E. Cheatings

The following is for the question number 40 to 43

         The Government should be more serious. 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 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 which is contaminated by trash. This is terrible. I think they don’t realize the danger, because they don’t have knowledge about healthy living.

    In my opinion, the government must make a regulation that prohibits people to build houses near the trash disposal (dump site). Also, there should be special officers, like police officers, who watch and catch people who throw trash on the ground or into the rivers. Moreover, if a big fine doesn’t make people stop dropping litter carelessly, the government should put them in jail as punishment.

  Finally, I think the efforts to keep our environment clean and tidy need hard work from both the citizens and government.

40. What does the text tell us about?

A. How to live healthy.

B. The government’s problem.

C. The trash problem in Jakarta.

D. The police officers’ problem.

E. Children living around heap of trash.

41. All these statements are true EXCEPT….

A. The efforts to keep our environment clean need hard work from both the citizens and the government.

B. There is no regulation that prohibits people to build houses near the trash disposal.

C. The people wash clothes, fruits and vegetables in the contaminated river.

D. We were able to smell stinky odors coming from the pile of trash.

E. Piles of trash bring the bacteria.

42. “…, a lot of women wash clothes and fruits and vegetables in the river which is contaminated by trash”. (paragraph 3). 

      The underlined word has the same meaning as ….

A. affected

B. polluted

C. threatened

D. disturbed

E. annoyed

43. The social function of the text is ....

A. to share an amusing story with others
