Huge reptiles called Dinosaurs lived on earth about 180 million years ago. They flourished and ruled the
earth for more than 120,000,000 years. But today we can’t see even a single one of them because all of them died out
about 60 million years ago. Why such strong and flourishing creatures should suddenly disappear completely is a
question that still puzzles the scientists today. The most probable explanation is the climate of the earth changed too
much about 60 million years ago for the dinosaurs to continue living. The huge sized reptiles called Dinosaurs existed
in a great variety of sizes. Most were 25 to 30 feet long and weighed from five to ten tons. Some were much smaller,
and a few early varieties were as small as chicken! (Adapted from All Colour Treasury of Children’s Knowledge by Jayant
Gupta. 1993)

Questions 24 to 28 are based on the text below!

Technically, an earthquake (also known as tremor, quake or temblor) is a kind of vibration through earth's
crust. This vibration occurs as a result of powerful movement of rocks in the earth's crust. These powerful movements
trigger a rapid release of energy that creates seismic waves that travel through the earth. Earthquakes are usually brief,
but may repeat over a long period of time. (Earth Science. 2001)
Earthquakes are classified as large and small. Large earthquakes usually begin with slight tremors
but rapidly take form of violent shocks. The vibrations from a large earthquake last for few days known as
aftershocks. Small earthquakes are usually slight tremors and do not cause much damage. Large earthquakes
are known to take down buildings and cause death and injury (Richter, 1935). According to some statistics, there may
be an average of 500,000 earthquakes every year but only about 100,000 can be felt and about 100 or so can cause
damage each year.
The study of earthquakes is called seismology. Seismology studies the frequency, type and size of
earthquakes. Earthquakes are measured using observations by seismometers. The magnitude of an earthquake and its
intensity is recorded on a numerical scale known as Richter scale. On this scale, 3 or less is hardly noticeable.
Earthquakes with magnitude of more than 6.5 can cause heavy damage (Earth Science.
2001).
The effects of an earthquake are strongest in the area which is near its epicenter. The extent of the earthquake
vibration and further damage to the region is partly dependent on the features of the ground. The worst possible
damage occurs in the densely populated areas where structures are not built to with stand intense shaking. Damage and
lost of life incurred during earthquake is due to falling buildings and flying glass and objects. In certain areas, an
earthquake can cause mudslides that can bury areas under it. Powerful submarine earthquakes cause tsunami or a chain
of fast moving waves in the ocean that ripple outward from earthquake epicenter towards coastal areas causing
surmountable damage (http\\: www.USGS.Org). On an average, 1,000 earthquakes with intensities of 5.0 or greater
are recorded each year.
24. What is the best title of the text above?
A. Tsunamie C. Seismology

25. Based on the text above, what can you summarize about the seismology?
A. Seismology studies about the effect of the earthquakes

C. Seismology studies the frequency, type and size of earthquakes
D. Seismology studies about what shoud people do to overcome earthquakes.
26. What are the possible effects of the earthquakes based on the text above?
A. The effects of an earthququakes is near its epicenter.
B. The extent of the earthquake vibration and further damage to the region is partly dependent on the features
of the ground.
C. The worst possible damage of the earthquakes happens in the densely populated areas
where structures are not built to with stand intense shaking.

Questions 32 to 34 refers to the text below!

The government will build a big night-market in Ruteng next year. I think it is a good idea. The reason is that
people will get benefits by selling many products in that market. Beside that they also can be creative to create many
new products to the visitors.
Related to that I suggest three things to the Manggaraian government. The first, the government should
give a great opportunity to the local people to get the stands or place at the market. If the givernment do so, the local
people will get the benefits of the market. Next, the Manggaraian government must give the financial support for the
local people to grow up their bussiness. The peoples’s problem nowadays that they have no money to run any
bussiness so that by having the financial support from the government, they will run their bussiness at the night
market effectively. And the last is that the Manggaraian government should take the appropriate retribution from the
users of the market.
