My first time experience in Bali

At 55 I have just gone to Bali for the first time with my husband. We stayed
in Seminyak and had a wonderful time. We took Jetstar in economy over
and were in 2nd last row and even then by time off plane purchasing VOA
and Immigration took about 1 hour - wasn't too bad. Departing last night,
Jetstar was late by one hour but we had paid to go Business class so it was
not that bad. We sat in Premier Lounge - not a great selection of food or
wine (wine is my thing) but it was enjoyable anyway. Of course, new airport
is underway and things may be different once that is up and running. We
didn't get sick or robbed or bitten. Yes, footpaths are broken and or missing
and some smells but that didn't 16deter us. People were friendly and so
polite. The weather was just fantastic. When asked to take what looked like
post cards we politely said "no thank you " and that was the last of it.
Bintang beer mostly $2.50 very cheap and was the food and we ate in good
restaurants - La Lucciola, Breeze, Sardine, Sarong and Metis. As we had
breakfast supplied at The Samaya we didn't need lunch and we were given
fruit salad by the pool and afternoon tea so only dinner was required. We
enjoyed Sarong in particular. We used hand sanitizer and luckily for us we
didn't get the dreaded dire - rear. A driver took us to Ubud and Jimbaran
Bay and through Kuta. Mostly this was a relaxing one week there.
Manicures, pedicures, hair, massage were so cheap - roughly $8 - we had
these done at Body Works in Seminyak. I also had Wendy the dressmaker
come to our hotel and made me skirts which I was very happy with. This
morning in Sydney airport, it took us just 30 minutes to be off the plane and
into a taxi. Jetstar made up time flying home - only 5 hours and 10 minutes.
It was all a breeze. Bali had never been on my to do list, but I will be going
back that is for sure.

What happened when they were about to leave for Bali?

A. They needed to cancel their trip.

B. They needed to put their trip off.

C. The plane crashed.

D. The adverse weather prompted the plane to delay.

E. The plane was late for an hour.

Jawbaan: E

Pembahasan:

Pada bagian awal teks terdapat kalimat “… and even then by time off plane
purchasing VOA and Immigration took about 1 hour - wasn't too bad” yang
artinya ketika mereka akan berangkat ke Bali dengan pesawat,
keberangkatannya harus tertunda selama 1 jam, maka jawaban E yang
tepat.

largely the same for both the website and the app.

Click "Sign Up for Free" or tap "Sign Up". This will begin the account
creation process.
· For business accounts, there are two different options, each of which has
different cost structures and benefits. Standard accounts are free, but
customers must route through PayPal in order to check out. Pro accounts
cost $30 per month, but you get to full control over how you want to design
the checkout process.

· The Standard free business account is the same as the old PayPal
Premier account. This account is best suited for users who do lots of
buying and selling on eBay.

Enter your email address and create a password. Make sure that you
create a strong password so that nobody else can access your financial
information.

legal name, address, and phone number. All of this information is required

your PayPal account.

my bank first".

Enter your bank account information (optional). You'll need a bank account
linked if you plan on receiving money and want to be able to transfer it to
your bank. You don't have to do this now if you don't want to. Just click "I'll
link my bank later" to skip it for now. You'll be prompted to confirm that you
want to skip the process.

Apply for PayPal credit (optional). Before you're taken to your account's

The Real Reason Why TV Is Bad for the Kids

"Books are good for children." "TV is bad for children." Everyone seems to
know this. In the same way that we know that we should be eating lots of
fruits and vegetables and limiting sweets, we all know that kids should
spend a lot of time with books and relatively little time with TV.

But why? Can't kids learn just as much from TV as they do from books?
There is no doubt that TV can be educational. But one of the unforeseen
consequences of TV viewing is reducing how much parents talk with their
children. And diminished parent-child interaction can have negative effects
on children, especially when they are young.

In a recent study of toddlers and pre-schoolers, we observed mothers and

their children while they read books, watched a pro-social TV program, or
played with toys. We found TV viewing suppressed both the amount and
quality of mother-child communication. That is, moms made relatively few
comments to their children while co-viewing. When they did speak, their
comments were often unrelated to what their child said, thereby creating an
unproductive exchange that could hinder children's opportunity for learning.

Moms who read books to their children, however, not only talked
significantly more but also used a very high-quality form of communication
that included asking questions, labelling objects, affirming their child, and
responding to their child's statements or questions with relevant
information. It is important to note that the increased quantity and quality of
communication was not due to the fact that moms were reading the words
on the pages. Instead, this difference reflected the communication that
occurred above and beyond the actual reading that the mother did with the
child.

Playing with toys also elicited a high amount of communication, including

some high-quality forms of interaction. Although not better than books, toy
playing was significantly better than shared TV viewing at encouraging
communication.

With these results in mind, let's consider the child who spends a good
chunk of the day watching TV. From this perspective, the problem is not
necessarily what content, either good or bad, the child has experienced (of
course content does make a difference too). Instead, the problem is what
this child is missing. Young children who watch lots of TV may be missing
out on valuable - even crucial - interactions with parents during a critical
point in their development. Parent-child interaction, even with children who
can't yet speak, is vital to children's healthy development.

The American Academy of Pediatrics just released their updated TV

guidelines for children ages 2 and under. In their statement, they
discourage all TV viewing for children in this age group. Part of the
justification for their recommendation is that TV viewing reduces parent-
child communication.

Some parents may believe that they can't offer their children the kinds of
educational experiences that TV provides. But they are wrong. Children
learn the best from real people, especially people who are important to
them. When parents talk with their children, they not only promote their
language development but also teach their children that they are valued
and important. Reading books and turning off the TV can facilitate these
positive interactions.

Text for questions number 9-10

A volcano is an opening in the Earth’s surface where molten rock can

escape from underneath. The Earth’s surface is made up of tectonic plates,
which are spreading apart, crunching into each other, or sliding beside one
another. Volcanoes are typically found at the fault lines between these
plates. There can be active volcanoes, which are currently, or have recently
erupted. There are also dormant volcanoes, which haven’t erupted
recently, and extinct volcanoes, which will never erupt again.

There are 4 major types of volcanoes:

Cinder Cone Volcanoes

These are the simplest type of volcano. They occur when particles and
blobs of lava are ejected from a volcanic vent. The lava is blown violently
into the air, and the pieces rain down around the vent. Over time, this
builds up a circular or oval-shaped cone, with a bowl-shaped crater at the
top. Cinder cone volcanoes rarely grow larger than about 1,000 feet above
their surroundings.

Composite Volcanoes

Composite volcanoes, or strato volcanoes make up some of the world’s

most memorable mountains: Mount Rainier, Mount Fuji, and Mount
Cotopaxi, for example. These volcanoes have a conduit system inside
them that channels magma from deep within the Earth to the surface. They
can have clusters of vents, with lava breaking through walls, or issuing from
fissures on the sides of the mountain. With all this material coming out, they
can grow thousands of meters tall. As we’ve seen with the famous Mount
Saint Helens, composite volcanoes can explode violently.

Shield Volcanoes

These are large, broad volcanoes that look like shields from above – hence
the name. The lava that pours out of shield volcanoes is thin, so it can
travel for great distances down the shallow slopes of the volcano. These
volcanoes build up slowly over time, with hundreds of eruptions, creating
many layers. They’re not likely to explode catastrophically. Perhaps the
best-known shield volcanoes are the ones that make up the Hawaiian
Islands, especially Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea.

Lava Domes

Volcanic or lava domes are created by small masses of lava which are too
viscous (thick) to flow very far. Unlike shield volcanoes, with low-viscosity
lava, the magma from volcanic domes just piles up over and around the
vent. The dome grows by expansion of the lava within, and the mountain
forms from material spilling off the sides of the growing dome. Lava domes
can explode violently, releasing a huge amount of hot rock and ash.

Text for question number 15-17

Ibn Sina's first appointment was that of physician to the emir, Nuh II, who
owed him his recovery from a 15… illness (997). Ibn Sina's chief reward for
this service was access to the royal library of the Samanids, well-known
patrons of scholarship and scholars. When the library was destroyed by fire
not long after, the enemies of Ibn Sina accused him of burning it, in order
for ever to conceal the sources of his knowledge. Meanwhile, he assisted
his father in his financial labors, but still found time to write some of his
earliest works.

When Ibn Sina was 22 years old, he lost his father. The Samanid dynasty
came to its end in December 1004. Ibn Sina seems to have declined the
offers of Mahmud of Ghazni, and proceeded westwards to Urgench in
modern Turkmenistan, where the vizier, regarded as a friend of scholars,
gave him a small monthly stipend. The pay was small, however, so Ibn
Sina wandered from place to place 16… the districts of Nishapur and Merv
to the borders of Khorasan, seeking an opening for his talents. Qabus, the
generous ruler of Tabaristan, himself a poet and a scholar, with whom Ibn
Sina had expected to find asylum, was on about that date (1012) starved to
death by his troops who had revolted. Ibn Sina himself was at this time
stricken by a severe illness. Finally, at Gorgan, near the Caspian Sea, Ibn
Sina met with a friend, who bought a dwelling near his own house in which
Ibnu Sina 17... on logic and astronomy. Several of Ibn Sina's treatises were
written for this patron; and the commencement of his Canon of Medicine
also dates from his stay in Hyrcania.
