21. Read the text below attentively.
What Can I Do?
The first step to stop corruption is to be determined to stop corruption. Some
acts to perform are:
1) Not giving or receiving bribes;
2) Gaining achievement on the basis of personal integrity;
3) Speaking out when seeing corruption around you;
4) Encouraging the government to fix the existing systems and formulate
laws to protect whistle-blowers;
5) Actively writing articles about corruption you see in your local
newspaper; and
6) Participating in campaign fighting against corruption and supporting
good governance.
22. Make a slogan based on the text you have just read. Use
prepositions and participle phrases.
Throw away corruption away from our country!
Having good wealth for our country, corruption must be thrown away!

Basuki Tjahaja Purnama

Governor of Jakarta
Sekretariat.gubdki@gmail.com
Dear Governor of Jakarta, Mr. Basuki Tjahaja Purnama
As we know, recently Indonesia’s economy has been collapsed, that
continues to be more worse than before. It’s tells us that the corruptors in
Indonesia is increasing, who kept using Indonesia’s wealth illegally for their
own needs. This can lead to the degradation of Indonesia’s wealth, which
increases the price of goods and services.
I Believe we can stop the corruption, but it can’t be instantly. We need
more and more action from Indonesian citizens and the government of
Indonesia. While doing the action to throw away the corruption, we don’t need
to make a controversy in public, that is without using violent or nothing that
make a controversy.
By not giving or receiving bribes, we will throw away the corruption
from our country slowly, that can be increasing Indonesia’s wealth and
decreasing the corruptors in Indonesia. We can see the practice of giving and
receiving bribes are very high in the area of Indonesian government. From
that, we need to give counseling to many Indonesian citizens about giving and
receiving bribes.
From many other ways, I think this is the effective one to stop a
corruption. But it can’t be instantly stop the corruption. We need more action
and support to do this as the way to stop the corruption. I hope that you’d
consider my suggestion.
Thank you for your time and attention for reading my letter. Contact me
if you want another information of my clarifications.

Sincerely,
James Winston Limmade

Report About Mobile Phone
Who doesn't know smartphone? We all here have it. And now we will
tell you a report about handphone. A smartphone, is a mobile phone with an
advanced mobile operating system which combines features of a personal
computer operating system with other features useful for mobile or handheld
use. They typically combine the features of a cell phone with those of other
popular mobile devices, such as personal digital assistant (PDA), media
player and GPS navigation unit. Most smartphones can access the Internet,
have a touchscreen user interface, can run third-party apps, music players
and are camera phones. Most Smartphones produced from 2012 onwards
also have high-speed mobile broadband 4G LTE internet, motion sensors,
and mobile payment mechanisms. Hand phone has become the new
technology of today’s lifestyle. As a proof, elementary school students or
maybe playgroup students are already using hand phones or smart phones.
From every brand of smartphone that exist in our daily life, I choose the
Xiaomi Redmi Note 1. This phone look like the other smartphone that we can
often to see everywhere. The Redmi Note definitely has a family resemblance
to the Xiaomi Redmi 1S, except that the rear cover is a glossy white. The front
face is quite plain, with black glass surrounded by a slightly raised black
plastic edging. The three capacitive buttons below the screen light up in red.
It's a simple look, which we quite like.The power and volume buttons are on
the right, the Micro-USB port is on the bottom and the headset socket is on
top.
There's a camera lens and flash on the upper rear, with a silvery MI
logo and the speaker grille closer to the bottom.The cover comes off if you
peel it back with one fingernail in the Micro-USB port cutout. The two SIM
card slots and the microSD slot are beneath arranged such that you have to
take the battery out to get to them. The rear is very glossy, which gives it a
great look but makes it a little slippery. Luckily, the Redmi Note isn't very wide
and the sides are curved, which make it a little easier to grip when using it
with one hand. But now my xiaomi can be categorized 50% still good and
50% broken. My phone already fell about few times. One time my phone fell
to the street and it’s damaged right edge of my phone. Beside that, the back
of my phone already have 4 cracked part. But the other part of my phone are
still okay, like camera; touch screen; etc.
This phone is well known by now for stuffing high-end components into
dirt-cheap phones, and the Redmi Note is no different. The 1.7GHz octa-core
MediaTek MT6592 SoC and 5.5-inch 720x1280-pixel screen are more typical
of phones that cost around Rs. 15,000 today. There are a few similarly-
specced phones in this price range though: the Intel-based Asus ZenFone 5
and the Qualcomm-powered Xolo Q1100, for example. It will be interesting to
see which one comes out on top in our performance tests.

The Redmi Note also has 2GB of RAM and 8GB of storage space
which can be bumped up by only 32GB using a microSD card. Wi-Fi and
Bluetooth 4.0 are supported. There's a gyroscope and a digital compass in
addition to the accelerometer, ambient light sensor and proximity sensor. The
rear camera takes 13-megapixel photos while buyers will be pleased to note
that the front camera also has pretty decent 5-megapixel sensor. You get a
charger and USB cable in the box, but no headset.
Xiaomi's MIUI skin is one of the most polished we've seen from the
major Chinese manufacturers. As we've come to expect, all icons and widgets
live together on the homescreens and there is no separate app drawer. This is
something users who like simplicity might prefer, but we feel hampered
because it's difficult to arrange widgets, and as we install more apps, things
get really disorganised. The system app icons are also customised, and
thankfully they aren't too difficult to tell apart. Everything looks crisp and
clean, without being over the top. Xiaomi includes an online wallpaper catalog
within the Settings app itself. You can change the transition animation and
some other visual effects if you like.
There are quite a few options to discover in the Redmi Note's Settings
app. You can play around with settings for the buttons, notifications LED,
lockscreen and more. There's a massive variety of ringtones and message
alert sounds to choose from. The notifications shade is also clean, and you
can choose whether to show quick settings shortcuts in a separate page or in
a scrolling bar at the bottom. There's also an interesting Lite mode, which
completely replaces the MIUI launcher with a very simple tile-based interface
and large text, probably designed for children, elderly people or the extremely
tech-phobic.
You get access to basic functions and a panel of contacts which are
easy to access. It's a nice touch but Xiaomi doesn't offer fine-grained control
over it, such as letting a parent allow or disable certain apps and functions, or
forcing a password to get out of it. Some of the tools such as the dialler and
messaging app are simplified, while others such as the gallery are just the
regular apps, which presents its own set of confusions. There's a separate
Guest mode toggle, buried in the security and privacy settings, which hides
your call history, messages, notes, photos and some settings, for times when
you want to hand your phone to someone else temporarily. This lets you set a
password so that it can't be disabled by anyone other than you. There's also a
separate section for permissions which forces a PIN or pattern check
(independent of your lockscreen PIN or pattern) when someone tries to
launch any app you decide should be locked - including system-level ones
such as the dialler.
Day by day, we did not encounter any problem like lag or slowdowns.
Casual games ran well but we hit a wall when playing HD videos - only our
lightest MPEG4 samples worked well enough, while the heavier H.264 files
choked. For some reason, the red navigation buttons remained lit up while

videos played in some apps, which was very distracting. We liked the screen
for the most part, though it felt unusually slick and was also not very readable
in sunlight. Sound from the single speaker on the rear wasn't very impressive
- music sounded tinny and compressed, but at least it didn't distort at high
volumes.
The benchmark scores revealed some very interesting results. While
CPU performance was impressive, graphics typically lagged. This has been
true of MediaTek processors for a while, but it shows that the Redmi Note
does have at least one chink in its armour. We saw scores of 31,969 in
AnTuTu and 16,083 overall in Quadrant, which were way higher than those of
the Xolo Q1100, Asus ZenFone 5 and even one of our more expensive
favourites, the Motorola Moto G (Gen 2). However, the GFXbench and
3DMark Ice Storm scores of 13.1fps and 5950 points respectively were not as
strong as all the others. The ZenFone 5, in particular, was considerably
stronger in both tests. Gaming and HD video consumption will be the one
area in which the Redmi Note falls short.
Both cameras were good when used with plenty of natural light around.
Photos were a little grainy when seen at 100 percent, but details were
reproduced consistently well and we managed to take some very nice close-
up shots with defocused backgrounds. Focusing took a little time and we
found it more reliable to tap the screen and confirm a lock rather than let the
autofocus take care of it. The same behaviour was amplified in low light - it
took a bit too long to lock focus, and there was also a fair bit of shutter lag.
Still, results came out well enough for sharing around. Battery life was also
quite good. Our looped video test ran for 11 hours, 56 minutes before the
phone down automatically.
The Redmi Note continues Xiaomi's habit of upsetting the market with
strong smartphones at phenomenal prices. With a phablet-sized screen and
specifications that are more typical of phones twice as expensive, it's no
surprise that there's a lot of buzz around this phone and demand is
extraordinarily high. We say "try" because of course Xiaomi also continues its
practice of making devices very, very difficult to buy. The Redmi Note is
available only through weekly flash sales on Flipkart, and to make things
worse, there's no guarantee of how many units will be available and how long
these sales will go on. We already know that a 4G-LTE version of this phone
will be released later in December for Rs. 1,000 more, so the future
availability of this particular model is uncertain.
There's also the slight issue of graphics performance. If you're into
gaming and don't mind a slightly smaller screen, it might be worth it to spend
just a little more on the Asus ZenFone 5. This phone can be found on China,
buy directly on the official xiaomi website, or some countries that import this
phone to be sold at the importer countries
