My Most Unforgettable Holiday
In 2015, I went to Derawan Island with my friends and that marks my most memorable
holiday ever!
In June, our school was having summer holiday, so we thought to ourselves that it
shouldn't go to waste. We quickly browsed the internet to find a good holiday destination
and after an hour of heated debate, the four of us agreed to give Derawan Island a try. It
was purely out of curiousity as none of us had been there before.
We arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport at 05.30 a.m. as the flight was
at 07.00 a.m. First, we flew to Balikpapan and waited for about an hour to continue the
flight to Berau. As soon as we touched down in Berau, my friend called the tour agent that
we had contacted earlier in Jakarta. They had got a car ready to take us to Labuan Batu.
From Labuan Batu, we took a speedboat for about an hour to Derawan Island. It was such
a long trip to Derawan but it all paid off as soon as we saw how beautiful the island was.
My friends and I were quickly ushered to our rooms in the resort. It was fantastic!
The rooms were in a cottage that was situated right above the sea. So we only had to step
out the terrace to find ourselves out in the open sea! After unpacking our luggages and
washing up, we went to the dining hall to grab our dinner. The dinner was only simple
seafood dishes. The surrounding totally enhanced the dining experience, making the food
taste much better.
The following day, we took a speedboat tour, hopping from one island to another
Our first trip stop was Kakaban Island where we hiked to reach the lake and swam among
stingless jellyfish. The last time I heard, there were only three places in the world that
have stingless jellyfish; two of them in Indonesia! Isn't that great? The next stop was the
Sangalaki Island where we got to visit sea turtle conservation and took lots of pictures
with sea turtle babies. They were so cute!
Our last stop was the Maratua Island where we were able to feed fish and see a
three-legged sea turtle. The three-legged sea-turtle wasn't born that way. We were told
that it was swimming in the open sea when it was still a baby then its leg got caught in
plastic trash and couldn't grow even when the sea-turtle reached adulthood. One of the
island's guards saw the sea-turtle and saved it. He also untangled the plastic trash that
bound the sea-turtle's leg but it was too late. Since then, the sea-turtle is kept in a special
space next to the resort in Maratua Island and the guards take turns feeding it to ensure its
survival. This is why we should never litter and endanger other creatures! After Maratua
Island, we headed back to Derawan Island to catch a late dinner and turned in.

7
 The following morning, we wake up early and ate our breakfast in the dining
room. Then, the driver drove us back to the airport so we could catch a flight back to
Jakarta. We arrived at Jakarta, exhausted but terribly happy! It was the most unforgettable
trip I have ever experienced so far!

Try the following tips
1. Stay out of the sun during peak hours. While these times may vary slightly depending
on the season and where you live. You should be indoors if all possible between 10:00
and 15:00.
2. Keep covered up. Floppy hats and large umbrellas work well and so do cover-ups.
Long-sleeved cotton shirts are excellent for hiking, cycling etc; see your sports store for
special brands that allow breathing as well as cover-up.
3. Use sunscreen on any exposed areas. An SPF of 45+ is recommended for it allows even
the fairest skinned folks to stay out in the sun for a few hours before reapplying. Try
chopstick on your lips. Follow the instructions on sunscreen carefully. Always reapply
after leaving the water, as it’ll have washed off.
4. Don’t forget hard-to-reach places. Don’t forget to cover the backs of your knees, back
of your neck, elbows and back of your ears (if you have short hair). Feet should also be
included if you are wearing sandals, flip-flops or going bare-foot. Even these places can
hurt a lot with sunburn.
5. Don’t lie in the sun purposefully seeking a tan. This is not only damaging to your skin
but might burn you the first few times you try it at the beginning of the season. If you
want to tan, do it gradually and sensibly, with short exposure and building up over time.

A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a great flood, a big fire or an earthquake. It
usually causes great suffering and loss of a large sum of money. The casualties are injured or
died. Some people are homeless and need medical care.
Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or streams overflow their banks and pour
onto the surrounding land. Floods are caused by many different things. Often heavy
rainstorms that last for a brief can cause a flood. But not all heavy storms are followed by
flooding. If the surrounding land is flat and can absorb the water, no flooding will occur. If,
however, the land is hard and rocky, heavy rain cannot be absorbed. Where the banks are low,
a river may overflow and flood adjacent lowland.
In many part of the world flood are caused by tropical storms called hurricanes or
typhoons. They bring destructive winds of high speed, torrents of rain, and flooding. When a
flood occurs, the destruction to surrounding land can be severe. Whole villages and towns are

13
sometimes swept away by water pouring swiftly over the land. Railroad track blocked and
uprooted from their beds. Highways are washed away.
When a building caught fire, the firemen pitched in to help battle the blaze. Before the
pumps were invented, people formed bucket brigades to fight fires. Standing side by side,
they formed a human chain from the fire to nearby well or river. They passed buckets of
water from to hand to be poured on the flames.
The damage of the fire did depend a great deal on where it happened. In the country or a
small village, only a single house might burn down. But in crowded cities, fire often
destroyed whole blocks and neighborhoods before being controlled.

Recycling is important in today’s world if we want to leave this planet for our future
generations. It is good for the environment, since we are making new products from the old
products which are of no use to us. There are many reasons why it’s important to recycle as
much as possible.
Making new products out of recycled materials reduces the need to consume
precious resources. So recycling helps protect raw materials and protect natural habitats for
the future.
Using recycling materials in the manufacturing process uses considerably less
energy than that required for producing new products from raw materials.
Recycling reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying and logging), refining
and processing raw materials all of which create substantial air and water pollution. As

14
 recycling saves energy, it also reduces greenhouse gas emissions, which helps to tackle
climate change.
There are over 1,500 landfill sites in the UK and, in 2001, these sites produced a
quarter of the UK’s emissions of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that is released as the
biodegradable waste (such as food and paper) decomposes. Existing landfill sites are filling
up fast and there is very limited space for new ones.
A massive reduction in the amount of waste we send to landfill is required if we are
to avoid the heavy fines and the landfill taxes that are being imposed by Central
Government on councils that exceed their landfill allowances. Increases in your Council
Tax or service cuts in other areas would be the only way of paying these penalties.

31. What does the text highlight?

A. Reasons to recycle.
B. Conserving the energy.
C. Protecting the environment.
D. Environmental construction.
E. Saving money through recycling.

32. We know from the text that ... if we recycle.

A. landfill sites will decrease
B. climate change will continue
C. more new products will be reduced
D. natural habitats will never be affected
E. air and water pollution will be affected

33. ”Recycling reduces the need for extracting (mining, quarrying and ogging), refining and
processing raw materials all of which create substantial air and water pollution.”
Based on this quote, we conclude that the writer is telling us that ….
A. recycling saves us money
B. recycling reduce landfill
C. recycling saves energy
D. recycling conserves raw materials
E. recycling helps protects the environment

34. Recycling reduces the need for extracting ... it reduces pollution.
A. because

Everybody should change their way of life to reduce global warming. There are several
things that we can do. One of them is by buying and consuming fresh local groceries as much

Six killed, thousands displaced in South Sulawesi floods
Six people died and 10 went missing in a flood that hit Makassar City and six other districts
in South Sulawesi on Tuesday. The previous day, dozens of houses and several bridges were
destroyed hours after torrential rainfall hit. The six people were from Gowa district, which
was inundated because of rising water levels in the Jenebarang River.

Gowa Regent Adnan PurichtaIchsan said some of the victims died because of electric shock
while others were buried by landslides.

“We are continuing to evacuate and assist residents affected by the flood," he said as
quotedby Antara. The regent said as of Wednesday morning that the flood had displaced at
least 2,121 people. Aside from Gowa and Makassar City, the floods hit Takalar, Jeneponto,
Maros, Pangkep and Barru regencies.

JihadulArifin, a resident of the Antang housing complex in Makassar City, said he did not
have time to secure his valuable belongings because the flood came quickly and inundated
the area. He said the flood was a result of an overflow of water in Gowa regency after the
opening of Bili-Bili Dam's sluice gate.

"We have not had the chance to secure it because the water was immediately high," he said
on Wednesday. He added that the flood was not like the previous year’s floods because it
came suddenly, hitting the backs of residential houses and reaching heights as high as some
roofs. “Me and other residents are being evacuated to the mosque. We need clothes, blankets
and public kitchens," he said. (ggq)

This museum is located in Ambarawa in central Java. The museum focuses on the
collection of steam locomotive. Ambarawa was a military city during the Dutch colonial
government. King Willem I ordered the construction of the new railway station to enable the
government to transport its troops to Semarang. On may the 21st 1873, the Ambarawa
railway station was built on 100,027,500 squares meter land. Back then it was known as the
Willem I station. The Ambarawa railway museum was established much later on October 16,
1976 in the Ambarawa station to preserve the steam locomotive. They were coming to the
end of their useful life when the 3 feet 6 inches guard railway or the Indonesian state railway

The Use of Formalin and Other Additives in Foods
The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious problem
for three reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimens
and experiments. Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is
usually used as a disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food
preservatives. Of course when it is used for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to
human’s body.
The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This condition
makes the people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use formalin
was spread wide all over the Indonesian regions, and these days it has really happened, the
citizen's bodies will be badly contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell
their products which contain formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our
digestive system absorbs the substance that should be for the human and animal corpses?
