A survey has found about 13 percent of first-time smokers in the country are junior high school
students. It also revealed 89 percent of young female employees were smokers. The survey was
conducted in five major cities across the country, including Surakarta in Central Java.

Muhammad Syahril Mansyur, the Surakarta Health Agency’s respiratory illness division, said that
the finding of the survey showed an alarming growth rate of Indonesian smokers. "This situation is a
 cause for concern,” he said. “It appears the country’s younger generation is uneducated about the
health risks of smoking.”

The Indonesian anti-tobacco campaign has reportedly been deemed as ineffective as the government
refuses to sign the international convention on tobacco control. It said that cigarette producers
contributed to a large amount to state revenue and gave jobs to thousands of workers.

Nine traditional Balinese dances have been recognized as part of the world’s intangible
cultural heritage following a UNESCO session in Namibia on Wednesday.

Balinese dances included on the list were the Barong Ket, Joged Bumbung, Legong
Keraton, Topeng Sidhakarya, Baris Upacara, Sanghyang Dedari and Rejang dances, as well as the
Wayang Wong and Gambuh dance dramas.

"We are very pleased with the recognition; it enables Bali to receive protection in terms
of traditional dance preservation as well as economic benefits in the future," said Bali Cultural
Agency head Dewa Putu Beratha on Wednesday night as quoted by Antara news agency.

During the UNESCO session, Indonesia's proposal regarding the dances reportedly
ranked 18th among a total of 35 countries.

"The nine dances represent Balinese dance as a whole based on their historical concept,
function and style," said Dewa.

According to Dewa, the Rejang, Sanghyang Dedari and Baris Upacara dances
represented the Wali dance, which is usually performed during processions. Meanwhile, the
Topeng Sidhakarya dance and Gambuh and Wayang Wong dance dramas are part of the Bebali
dance, known as a semi-sacred and ceremonial dance. The Legong Keraton, Joged Bumbung and
Barong Ket dances are a representation of the Balih-Balihan dance that serves social and
entertainment purposes.

The Wali dance is said to have originated between the eighth and 14th centuries. The
Bebali dance and Balih-Balihan dances are believed to have come from the 14th-19th century and
19th centuries, respectively.

"The community has actively played an important role in preserving these traditional
dances, especially the Wali dance. Meanwhile, the Bali provincial administration and its city and
regency administrations should increase their role in preserving the Bebali and Balih-Balihan
dances during tourist events," said Dewa.
11. Which statement that supports the text?
A. The Bebali dance is believed originated in 19th century.
B. The Balih-Balihan dance is said to have come from the 14th-19th century.
 C. The nine Balinese dances represent the culture and life of its community.
D. Indonesia’s proposal regarding the dances ranked well among the 35 countries.
E. The UNESCO recognition on the nine Balinese dances will be economically beneficial for
Bali.

Faster planes and cheaper flights are making travel easier than before. In the most
‘developed’ societies, visiting exotic places is a sought-after status symbol. The tourism
industries of both developed and developing countries have recognised this fact and are
learning to take advantage of it.
There are, however, a few problems associated with this new industry. Initially, there is the
increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourists as easy prey because, not only are they
unfamiliar with the territory and therefore unable to take care themselves, but also they carry
visible items of wealth, such as cameras and jewelry which can be disposed of quickly for
profit.
Another major problem is health. With greater mobility comes greater danger of spreading
contagious diseases around the world. One carrier returning home could easily start an
epidemic before their illness is diagnosed. Moreover, the emergence of many diseases which
resist antibiotics is causing scientists to be increasingly concerned about this issue.
Also to be considered is the natural environment, which can be seriously threatened by too
many visitors. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, for example, is in danger of being destroyed by
tourists and there are plans to restrict visitors to some of the more delicate coral cays. These
are just three of the reasons why any country should be wary of committing itself to an
extensive tourism development programme.
12. Why does the natural environment become one of the serious problems associated with the faster
planes and cheaper flight? Because ....
A. It easily started an epidemic before their illness was diagnosed
B. It can be destroyed by too many visitors
C. The health problem will increase
D. They carry visible items of wealth
E. It can increase crime rate

One day in July 2005, I went fishing on Sodus bay. I casted under our own dock with a rubber worm and
BOOM!

A big bass took off to the other side of the dock and I was sure the line was going to break because his
pulling was rubbing the line against sharp rocks. Three times I pulled him back to my side of the dock and
three times he got back to the other side of the dock. Finally, I got him to my side and he was tired.

I knew that this was the biggest bass I had ever seen. I worked him towards me and got down on my
belly, reached down and gripped him. However, I didn’t have a good grip at first and I let him down to
the water for a few seconds to get a better grip. The next thing I knew he was swimming away. No! I
screamed louder than I ever had. It was the first time I cried over a fish. What a huge fish. This was a true
story and a sad one for me.

KOMODO DRAGON INDONESIA

The komodo dragon truly lives up to its name, being the largest species of lizard ever known and capable
of growing up to 3 m in length and weighing up to 70 kg. This sheer size, when combined with the
dragon’s predatory nature, demands that caution be exercised when in its immediate vicinity.

Moreover, the dragon is also famous for its ferocious bite, which combines serrated teeth with a
mysterious toxic saliva. Scientists still debate whether this saliva contains venom or bacteria but either
way, the dragon’s fearsome reputation is well known.

The killing machine is only found on a few islands in the Komodo National Park, a conservation area
listed in two international groups: UNESCO World Heritage and the New 7 Wonders of Nature.

19. Why is Komodo lizard called Komodo dragon?

A. It lives in Komodo island

Last holiday my students and I went to Jogjakarta. We stayed at Morison Hotel which is not a long way
from Malioboro. On Friday, we went to the sanctuaries in Prambanan. There are three major sanctuaries,
the Brahmana, Syiwa and Wisnu sanctuaries. They are truly stunning. We went by just Brahmana and
Syiwa sanctuaries, on the grounds that Wisnu sanctuary is being remodeled. On Saturday morning we
went to Yogya Kraton. We spent around two hours there. We were fortunate on the grounds that we were
driven by a brilliant and amicable aide. At that point we proceeded with our adventure to Borobudur. We
touched base there at four p.m. At 6 p.m. we heard the declaration that Borobudur entryway would be
closed. In the evening we left Jogjakarta by bus.

20. Why did they just visit Brahmana and Syiwa sanctuaries?
A. because there was no wisnu temple
B. because wisnu temple was amazing
C. because wisnu temple was too small
D. because wisnu temple was being repaired
E. because wisnu temple was being destroyed
