The following text is for question number 151 to 153

Shopping in a foreign country can be fun and exciting

During my short course in Bali I went shopping at one of the shopping malls near the school. It was the first time I had ever been shopping in a foreign country. After paying for my goods, I waited at the cash desk for my change (around a few hundred rupiah), but the cashier said, “sudah”. I thought this was a question so I replied “Ya”. I carried on waiting for my change and eventually asked the cashier, “Where is my change?” She looked confused so I rephrased my question to “Where is my money – the 300 hundred rupiahs?” she understood but just pointed to a small plastic announcement stuck on the cash register that said “Please apologize. Small change will be replaced with candy”. Yes, I had three candies with my receipt but I thought they were complimentary from the mall. I was rather angry about the change, especially when I thought I had to apologize for the inconvenience caused by the mall. Later I found out the mall had missed-translated the word “apologize” and what they meant was “sorry”. Both words are “maaf” in Indonesia.

Unfortunately a candy vendor was standing outside the theatre. I hadn’t thought about that. Lucy saw her favourite coconut candy and asked for it. Like a fool, I bought it for ten cents.

We were miles away from the stage and the noise of Lucy eating her candy was louder than the actors’ voices. During the performance, Lucy ate every single bit of candy. On the way out, I was a bit upset about the candy. But then I realized I only had enough money for one ticket back home. Today I feel terrible about this but remember I was only twelve, it was very cold, and Lucy had eaten all the candy.

I turned to her and said, ‘Lucy, when we left home I had seventy cents, enough for the tickets and the tram fare. I hadn’t planned on candy. You wanted candy and you had all the candy. I have every right to go home by tram and leave you to walk. But you know, I’m mad about you. So I’m going to give you a fair chance. I’m going to toss this coin. If it’s heads, you get to ride home.

Before telescope was invented, astronomy consisted largely of measuring and predicting the positions of stars and planets observed by naked eyes.

This marked the start of our ability to deduce the composition of the stars. The science of astrophysics was born.

          Galileo Galilei was born in 1564 in the city of Pisa, Italy. About twenty years later he attended the university of  Pisa. At first, he wanted to become a doctor, but while he was there he became interested in science and decided to become a scientist. In 1592, a year after his fathers’s death, the university of Padua invited him to be a professor of mathematics. He stayed there for 19 years, where he became interested in the stars.

Galileo could see many stars through his telescope and he began to study the stars and other things in the sky.

Galileo also discovered that one big planet Jupiter, had four moons, but he made a mistake by naming them planets.

The following text is for question number 205 to 208

The Best Remedy

Cheating was one of the bad habits that I couldn’t get rid of. One day, during a test, I finished faster than my best friend who sat next to me. Amazingly, I didn’t cheat on that exam because I had really studied the night before and I could answer all of the questions quite easily. Seeing that I had finished, my friend signaled me asking me to cheat for her. She indicated she didn’t have the nerve to do it herself. I told her to look out of the teacher while I took a peek at my note book while I was doing that. Suddenly, out of nowhere, someone pinched my ear and I heard the whole class laughed at me. Yep, the teacher was standing behind us and had watched the whole scene. Needless to say, I never cheated again.

When destiny calls you, you must be strong

We’ll show them together

Believe me, I’ll be there
