Once upon a time, there was a king who ruled in Teberu Lombok, who had a beautiful daughter called
Puteri Mandalika. Because of her beauty, princes and kings from other kingdom around Teberu wished that she
would be their wife. Six of them came to Teberu and ask for her hand of marriage. They were Prince Bumbang,
Prince Aryo Johor, Prince Singa Trasak, Prince Daria Loka, Prince Gunung Piring and Prince Bungsu. Each
prince wanted to win the hearth of Puteri Mandalika.
Her father, the king of Teberu, was very confused and did not know what to do. If he chose one prince
instead of another then it would create jealousy and there could be war against his kingdom. All the princes were
handsome and powerful and so the king allowed his daughter to make her own choice. But Puteri Mandalika was
confused too and she also knew the dangerous risk that her kingdom and people would get, if she chose either
one of the princes.
After several days of serious thinking, Puteri Mandalika met her parents and asked her permission to
announce her decision in front of all the princes and the people of Teberu the next day in the beach. Early next
morning, everybody gathered on the beach. There was a gentle breeze with small waves breaking softly across
the shore. Everybody was looking at Puteri Mandalika, waiting for her announcement.
 Meanwhile, the six princes prayed in their heart that he would be the chosen one. Then in a loud and clear
voice, Puteri Mandalika Said, ”Oh my beloved mother and father, all the princes and especially the people of
Teberu Kingdom. Today I would like to announce that I will not give myself to any one of the princes, but rather to
all people of Teberu and my own kingdom.” Then Puteri Mandalika threw herself into the sea from the top of a hill
and disappeared. Everybody desperately search for her but she could not be found and people believed she was
transformed into flowing sea worms called “nyale”. .

inactive and overweight.
Considering some facts mentioned above, protect your children with the following tips:
1. Limit television viewing to 1 – 2 hours each day

The text for question 31 - 34

Students’ cheating
Students’ cheating is one of the biggest problems faced by teachers nowadays.
Despite the fact that teachers advise their students not to do dishonest acts during tests, some students still do
cheating. There are many kinds of cheating that students do during the test or examination, such as looking other
students’ work, put some notes under their clothes, write notes or formulas on their desks make hand signals or
go to rest rooms to get the answers from their friends.
In my view, students who do cheating are committing a crime. It is a sort of taking something illegally. This crime
causes negative results to the students. Students who always cheat deteriorate their mental capacity. Cheating
acts also create dependence. They weaken their self confidence. Instead of preparing for the coming test, they
are busy to organize notes on a piece of paper. If this awful habit continues, the students will lose their opportunity
to develop their intellectual and mind.
Therefore, school should consider cheating as a very serious problem. School board and administration should go
hand to overcome this matter. Honesty must be put in school’s vision. Harsh punishment must be applied to
students who commit this crime.

31. What is mainly discussed in the text?

A. School policy
B. Harsh punishment
C. Cheating as a crime
D. Mental deterioration
E. Different ways of cheating

32. What will the school do to eliminate students who commit cheating?

A. Create a good vision

B. Select honest students
C. Make harsh punishment
D. Make students confident
E. Administer the school affair

33. “Students who always cheat deteriorate their mental capacity.” (Paragraph 3)
The underlined word means…
A. support
B. worsen
C. cause
D. create
E. find

34. “They weaken their self confidence.” (Paragraph 3)

What does the underlined word refer to?
A. tests
B. Papers

 My favourite thing is aquarium. It is a place in which aquatic plants and animals, particularly fish, are kept. The
term is applied to single tanks for home use in which fish are kept for their decorative effect and interesting habits
and to public institutions with tanks for exhibition and scientific study of aquatic life.

I make home aquariums to simulate a natural environment. Aquatic plants supply the oxygen needed by the fish,
but often an aerating device is used to furnish additional oxygen. Goldfish enjoy cool water, but the popular
tropical fish must have water at a constant temperature of 22°C (72°F) or more. I must keep the water pure and
free of algae for long periods by sufficient aeration and by keeping mollusks in the aquarium. A layer of sand or
gravel at the bottom of the tank will hold the roots of such important aquatic plants as tape grass, vallisneria
spiralis, and aid in the removal of debris. My home aquariums range in size from small fishbowls holding two or
three pets to huge tanks.

37. To give additional oxygen, ... is used in a home aquarium.

A. a natural environment
B. aquatic plants
