added.
The committee found that in the voting irregularity cases voters got between Rp25,000 (US$2.26) to
Rp120,000 from legislative candidates in all districts and municipalities in Bali.
He said the legislative candidates committed money politics in various ways, by distributing the money

Government should not raise fuel price to solve the problem of economic issues. People were affected severely
with the high fuel price hike last year. Obviously they cut their spending. As an example, they had to buy lower
quality of rice or palm oil. There were also fewer buyers of secondary commodities like flour, or canned meat or
fish.
Furthermore, the condition of low income family will become even worse because their expenses will increase
while their salaries will not. Many companies will have to trim the number of employees because they are
incapable of managing buying or selling price, standard wages and personal affairs.
Finally, government should not rise fuel price to overcome economic problem but the solution should be sought by
tapping into the nations own potential and utilizing it to enhance productivity to its maximum.

What problem has been discussed in the text?

a. The price of secondary commodities d. The increasing of fuel price


b. The effect of increasing fuel price e. The economic problem

Speech production is made possible by the specialized movements of our vocal organs that generate speech sound
waves.
Like all sound production, speech production requires a source of energy. The source of energy for speech
production is the steady stream of air that comes from the lungs as we exhale. When we breathe normally, the air
stream is inaudible. To become vocal cords cause the air stream to vibrate.
As we talk, the vocal cords open and close rapidly, chopping up the steady air stream into a series of puffs.
These puffs are heard as a buzz. But this buzz is still not speech.
To produce speech sound, the vocal tract must change shape. During speech we continually alter the shape of
the vocal tract by moving the tongue and lips, etc. This movement changes the acoustic properties of the vocal
tract, which in turn produce the different sounds of speech

What does the text tells us about?

a. The vocal organ d. The process of speech production


b. The sound production e. The source of energy of speech production
c. The speech production

Basically, death penalty is based on the belief that the threat of death makes prospective criminals think
twice before resorting to some criminal act - such as murder, and makes them totally give up on such crimes.
Even though the effectiveness of death penalty as a crime deterrent has been used to gain support for this
concept for quite some time now, whether it really deters people from resorting to crime is an issue of
contention. A study published in the 'Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology' revealed that 88 percent of
American criminologists believed that death penalty was not an effective crime deterrent. In fact,
approximately 87 percent of the respondents of this study were of the opinion that abolition of death penalty
would have no major impact on crime rates in the country as such.
On the contrary, several criminologists are of the opinion that the deterrent effect of punishment in itself
is one of the several factors which makes a person indulge in crime, and doing away with it can help us bring
down the crime rate by a significant extent. The example of Canada wherein the homicide rate declined after
abolition of death penalty in 1976 is often used by these people to support their opinion. One has to also give a
thought to the fact that those criminals who resort to a great deal of planning to commit some crime will never
get affected by the threat of being caught and convicted. Similar would be the case when it comes to crimes by
mentally affected people or children for whom death penalty will seldom act as a deterrent.

What is the background of applying death penalty?

a. The threat of punishment will stop crime. d. The threat of death makes criminals
involve in doing crime.
b. The deterrent effect will decrease crime e. The belief on the threat of death makes
rate. criminals think over his planning
c. The mentally effected criminals will stop in doing crime.

get affected by the threat of being caught and convicted. Similar would be the case when it comes to crimes by
mentally affected people or children for whom death penalty will seldom act as a deterrent.

We can conclude that death penalty is .

a. the only way to minimize crime d. not effective to stop crime


b. used to threat of being caught e. effective to stop crime
c. not agreed by criminologists

Threads of Hope is another book in the Quilts of Love Series. This book involves Nina OMalley, a journalist
with a low self esteem due to incidents that happened during high school. When she gets assigned to do a story
about the AIDS Memorial quilt, she is hesitant at firsts, but decides to put her all into to try to secure a job in the
New York office. Throughout the process, she is reunited with her high school nemesis, Greg, who was the jock
that made her life miserable while in high school. When she learns that he has adopted an HIV positive daughter
for Ethiopia, her view of him changes. His faith in a loving God whom He trusts to lead him in life is a mystery to
her.
This book was a nice read. It was interesting to see the hardness of Ninas character in the beginning, and
watching her soften throughout it. She really let her early lifes circumstances define who she was as an adult,
unnecessarily. But thankfully, she was able to overcome it with the help of Greg and the Lord.

What is the text about?

a. The Story of Nina OMalley d. A story of Nina OMalley as a journalist


b. A review on the Quilts of Love Series e. A review on a book entitled Threads of
Hope
c. A story about the AIDS Memorial quilt

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Mans Chest

Starring: Johnny Deep, Orlando Bloom, Keira Knightley, Bill Nighy.


Directed by: Gore Verbinski.
Released by: Walt Disney Pictures.

In this sequel to the 2003 highly successful film Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, you can
see everyones favorite scoundrel, Captain Jack Sparrow (the brilliant Johnny Deep) trying to weasel out of paying
a blood debt owed to the mythical Davy Jones, the captain of the other worldly ship The Flying Dutchman.

Time is being his biggest enemy, and Sparrow pulls every trick he knows to find a way to escape the 100 years of
servitude owed to Davy Jones. His old friends, Elizabeth Swann (Keira Knightley) and Will Turner (Orlando
Bloom), are once again sucked into Sparrows misadventures.
The success of the first sequel relied on the simple thrill charm of a classic swashbuckler. Unfortunately, this
second sequel over extends that charm without adding anything new other than a long, contrived and rather
unnecessary plot twist.

The only true pleasurable aspect of this film is Deeps reprise of Sparrow, which never fails to generate laughs.
Without Deep, this film would have simply drowned in an ocean of redundancy.

What is Jack Sparrow trying to hinder?

a. The other sophisticated ship d. A mythical adventure of experienced


captain
b. A blood debt owned by mystical captain e. Paying a blood debt to the other ships
captain
c. The Curse of the Black Pearl from the ship

An orangutan has a large, bulky body, a thick neck, very long, strong arms, short, bowed legs, and no tail. It is
mostly covered with long, reddish-brown hair and grey-black skin. Sumatran orangutans have sparser and lighter-
colored coats. The orangutan has a large head with a prominent mouth area. Though largely hairless, their faces can
develop some hair in males, giving them a moustache. Adult males have large cheek flaps to show their dominance
to other males. The cheek flaps are made mostly of fatty tissue and are supported by the musculature of the face.
Mature males' throat pouches allow them to make loud calls. The species display significant sexual dimorphism;
females can grow to around 127 cm (4 ft 2 in) and weigh around 45.4 kg (100 lb), while flanged adult males can
reach 175 cm (5 ft 9 in) in height and weight over 118 kg (260 lb). A male orangutan has an arm span of about 2 m
(6.6 ft).
Orangutan hands are similar to human hands; they have four long fingers and an opposable thumb. Their feet have
four long toes and an opposable big toe. Orangutans can grasp things with both their hands and their feet. Their
fingers and toes are curved, allowing them to get a better grip on branches. Since their hip joints have the same
flexibility as their shoulder and arm joints, orangutans have less restriction in the movements of their legs than
humans have. Unlike gorillas and chimpanzees, orangutans are not true knuckle-walkers, and are instead fist-
walkers.
Orangutans live in primary and old secondary forests, particularly dipterocarp forests and peat swamp forests. Both
species can be found in mountainous and lowland swampy areas. Sumatran orangutans live at elevations as high as
1500 m (4921 ft), while Bornean orangutans live no higher than 1000 m (3281 ft). Other habitats used by
orangutans include grasslands, cultivated fields, gardens, young secondary forest, and shallow lakes. Orangutans
are the most arboreal of the great apes, spending nearly all their time in the trees.

What make orangutans voice louder?

a. A thick neck d. The muscular face


b. His big mouth e. Mature throat pouches
c. The cheek flaps
