Reading text for questions no. 9 to 12

When ancient people went from one place to another, they walked. When they had a
heavy load to move, they carried it. Then people learned to train animals to carry packs. The
oxen, the donkey and the camel were trained to be the beast of burden in the middle East. In
the Arctic, the dog and the reindeer were used. In India, humped cattle and elephants were
the burden carriers. The horse, a common transport animal today, was one of the last
animals to be trained.
Nowadays, wheeled vehicles for land transportation such as buses, trucks, cars, and
motorcycles are generally used. People can also go from one place to another by train. The
railway carriages are pulled by a diesel locomotive or high-speed electric locomotive. In early
19th century. the carriages were pulled by a steam locomotive.
People who want to travel may choose to go by train or by bus. They may prefer the
first-class compartments to the third-class ones because of the services. The first-class
passengers are served better than the third-class passengers. The facilities provided are also
different. Air conditioners are equipped in the first-class compartments but not in the third
class. For the better services they get, they have to pay the fare higher of course.
In big cities, city buses become people’s choice. Not all buses put the same fare into
effect. Distance does not a matter, but services provided are considered to determine it. The
better services given, the more the fare has to be paid. For example, BUSWAY as inner city
bus that serves a route from Blok M to Kota put the tariff higher than other inner city buses
because of its punctuality and comfortable shelters for passengers.

Dear Kenzi,
Thank you for your second letter. It is very interesting to read about the
farming tools used by the farmers in your village.
Now I would like to tell you about the tools that the farmers in my area
use. Most farmers here use tractors till and loosen the soil. They help us do the
tilling work quickly. To make holes in the ground we also use a machine called a
seed drill. It is also used to drop seeds into the holes and their fertilizer. For
larger rice fields we plant seeds by airplane. We also use the airplane to spray
chemicals on to the rice fields. When harvesting period comes, we use a
combine. It can cut the rice and separate the rice kernels from the stalks. This
machine can harvest more grain than 200 people working by hand.
Well, that is all for now. I am looking forward to receiving your other letters.

In 1956, a Brazilian scientist imported some special bees into Brazil from Africa. The
African bees were the same size as ordinary bees, but they were much stronger and
dangerous. A sting from one of these bees can kill a man or even a buffalo very quickly.
The scientist imported the bees because he wanted to breed a new type of bees,
using the African bees and ordinary European bees. He wanted to combine the strength of
the African bees with the safety of the European bees. Unfortunately, in 1957, 26 queen bees
escaped and began to breed in the jungles of Brazil. They spread very quickly. And since that
time they have been moving slowly northwards, covering 300 to 400 kilometers a year. Over
200 people have died after being stung by the killer bees, and thousands of animals have
also died. By March 1978, the killer bees had reached Venezuela and in1980 they arrived in
Panama.
The scientists from many different countries had tried hard to find ways of stopping them.
If they couldn’t be stopped, the Americans and Asians, like the Brazilians, they would have to
learn how to live with the new and dangerous visitors.

Bees and Honey

Ahmad is a beekeeper. He learned about bee keeping from his father. He earns
money from his bees. His bees produce honey. Everyday people come to his apiary. He
shows them the beehives and lets them taste the honey. Then, they buy it from him.
How do bees produce honey? First, a bee takes nectar from a flower. The bee carries
it to its hive. In the hive, the nectar is given to worker bees. Then, the worker bees put it into
a cell of the honeycomb. The worker bees fan the nectar with their wings and the breeze will
ripen the nectar. When the nectar has ripened, it turns into honey. Finally, the bees cover
each cell with wax until it is ready to use. The bees only eat half of the honey they make.
Ahmad collects the leftovers.

C. taking nectar  bringing it to their hive  breezing the nectar  putting it in cell  the
nectar ripen  tuning into honey  covering cells with wax.
D. taking nectar  bringing it to their hive  putting it in cell  covering cells with wax 

ANNE FRANK
Anne Frank was born in Frankfurt, Germany, on June 12, 1929. Her family was Jewish.
In 1933, the Nazi Party came to power in Germany. The Nazis blamed Jews for the nation’s problems
and began a campaign against Jews. The Frank family moved to Amsterdam in The Netherlands to

forward to adult life. She hoped to have a career as a writer, and she longed to find love. She had high
ideals and wished “to be useful or give pleasure to people around me.”
During World War II, Anne Frank and her family spent two years living in a small hidden room,

The Walking Dead

The zombie's fate is even worse than that of a vampire or werewolf. The vampire returns to his loved
ones. He may be recognized. The werewolf may be wounded and regain human form. But the zombie is
a mindless automaton (robot), doomed to live out a twilight existence of brutish toil (animal-like labor). A
zombie can eat, move, hear, even speak, but he has no memory of his past or knowledge of his present
condition. He may pass by his own home or gaze into the eyes of his loved ones without a glimmer of
recognition.

Neither ghost nor person, the zombie is said to be trapped, possibly forever, in that "misty zone that
divides life from death". The vampire is the living dead, the zombie is merely the walking dead - a body
without soul or mind raised from the grave and given an appearance of life through sorcery. He is the
creature of the sorcerer, who uses him as a slave.

From 'The Book of Great Mysteries (compilation of fictions)' edited by Colin Wilson and Christopher
Evans

STATE OFTHE EARTH-THE FACTS

1995 was the warmest year on record, and the ten hottest years in recorded
human history have all been in the 1980 and 1990s. The earth has this
century undergone the fastest warming since the end of the last Ice Age
around 10.000 years ago.

The major impact on the atmosphere is the release of carbon dioxide


throughout burning fossil fuels such as oil and coal, which creates a
greenhouse effect. A warmer world would bring higher sea level as well
as more frequent floods, droughts and hurricanes.
