 The text is for questions 17 to 19
It began one afternoon, when I visited my grandmother for lunch. By the time I went
home, she had booked me a ticket to the neighbouring island of Lombok for her friend’s
funeral. A couple of days later, I found myself sitting inside a propeller plane for the first time.
Anyway, we landed at an unexpected place. This island has a better airport than the more
popular. It didn’t stop there. The roads were big and clean. I mean seriously. This island is
quiet modern. Oh, I almost forgot to mention. We had hired a private driver for our entire 3
day trip and he was extremely helpful. Not only is he a good and fast driver, but he knows his
island. Every question my curious dad asked him, he could answer. It felt like we had
Wikipedia as a driver.

What I liked most about Lombok is that it’s not as directed towards international
tourists, but locals, the mindset of the people wasn’t as rough as of the Balinese. However, I
did come across one where a lady tried to sell cheap batik on a deserted beach for Rp.
200,000 (AUD$ 20). My granddad almost bought it out of pity, but my grandma dragged him
out of it. As he turned his back on her, the lady said okay! Rp. 15,000 (AUD$ 1.50). What a
difference! But eventually, being the kind-hearted person my granddad is, he bought 5 pieces.

A. A lady

A. the mindset of the people was as rough as that of the Balinese.
B. the writer booked a ticket to Lombok for his friend’s funeral.
C. the driver knows nothing about his island.
