The following text is for questions 21 and 23.
White foreigners are being called bule in defferent situation in remarks on the street, or in
covversations among Indonesians. A typical scenario is a Wasterner passing a group of school
children, and one child pointing to the person, shouting, Look, there is a bule. It would also be
common to say My neighbor works for a bule or There are many bules living around Kemang.
Indonesians might use the word bule when directly addressing foreigners, for example when a
vendor in a market calls, Eh bule, beli ini dong! [Hey bule, come and buy this!]. Sometimes,
exclaiming hello bule, or hello mister can simply be an attempt to attract attention from, or to
start a chat with, passing foreigners.
Many expatriates, however, are annoyed by this habit. For example, Eva, a German
woman, talks about how she was shopping in a supermarket, when she realized two young women
were looking at her, and one whispered to the other, See the bule over there? Eva found this
offensive; she thought the women behaved as if Eva was not able to inderstand their conversation,
and felt being treated like a non-person. Sometimes, the term bule is used in the presence of
foreigners, for example as shop assistants talk about a customer, such as The bule wants the
black frame for this picture- which foreigners find degrading of hurtful.

The following text is for questions 24 and 26.

I teach about 300 students each week, or all ten sections of 10 th grade at my school. I am
able to meet with each section once a week to work on conversational English. The curriculum is
very rote-based and does not emphasize speaking. Ive enjoyed trying activities that encourage
students to be creative and critical with their thinking. Because its my first time teaching, there are
lots of ups and downs. Nothing ever goes perfectly as planned, and thats okay. Overall, I find my
job incredibly rewarding for the small aha! moments students have in the classroom.

fro, with an air of great concern. What troubles you so? asked the
elephant.
The lion thought of sharing his grief with the elephant and asked
him, Can anything harm a beast like you who has tremendous bulk and
strength? The elephant replied, Do you see this little gnat? If he ever
stings the innermost parts of my ear, I will go mad with plain.

Although they may look plant-like, sponges are the simplest of
multi-cellular animals. A sponge is a bottom-dwelling creature which
attaches itself to something solid in a place where it can, hopefully,
receive enough food to grow. The scientific term for sponges in Porifera
which literally means pore-bearing.
A sponge is covered with tiny pores, called ostia, which lead
internally to a system of canals and eventually out to one or more larger
holes, called oscula. Within the canals of the sponge, chamber are lined
with specialized cells called choanocytes, or collar cells. The collar cells
have a sticky, funnel shaped collar and a hair like whip, called a
flagellum.
The collar cells serve two purposes. First, they beat their flagella
back and forth to force water through the sponge. The water brings in
nutrients and oxygen, while it carries out waste and carbon dioxide.
Second, the sticky collars of the collar cells pick up tiny bits of called an
amebocyte, taxes the food to other cells within the sponge.
There are many different types of sponges in the worlds oceans,
and contrary to popular belief, they can be quite colorful and beautiful.
Sponges come in two basic types: encrusting and free-standing.

The following text is for questions 37 and 40.

American alligator belongs to the sub family Alligatorinae which
includes five species of caiman and one other alligator, the Chinese
alligator. American alligators are a fairy large species with the males
reaching sizes between 4 and 4,5 m in length. The diet of the alligator
depends on its size. While they are very young their diet consists mostly
of insects that have fallen into the water. As their reactions develop,
they will start to hunt small fish and shrimps as well. As they grow, the
prey they target also becomes larger. During their juvenile years they
will eat crayfish, fish, mice, rats, reptiles, birds, and other small
mammals.
Mature alligator are large enough to eat animals like cows and
deers.
The American alligator is probably surviving better in the wild
than any other Crocodillian. They will inhabit any fresh water system
they can find, even ponds in the middle of housing estates and can very
occasionally be seen in the ocean. However, as they do not possess salt
glands, alligators must return to fresh water regulary to rid their system
