Taj Mahal is regarded as one of the eight
wonders of the world. It was built by a Muslim
Emperor Shah Jahan in the memory of his dear
wife at Agra.
jalurmas_media@yahoo.co.id
Taj Mahal is a mausoleum that houses the
grave of Queen Mumtaz Mahal. The mausoleum
is a part of a vast complex comprising of a main
gateway, an elaborate garden, a mosque (to the
left), a guest house (to the right), and several
other palatial buildings. The Taj is at the farthest
end of this complex, with the river Jamuna
behind it.
The Taj stands on a raised, square platform
(186 x 186 feet) with its four corners truncated,
forming an unequal octagon. The architectural
design uses the interlocking arabesque concept,
in which each element stands on its own and
perfectly integrates with the main structure. It
uses the principles of self-replicating geometry
and symmetry of architectural elements.
Its central dome is fifty-eight feet in
diameter and rises to a height of 213 feet. It is
flanked by four subsidiary domed chambers.
The four graceful, slender minarets are 162.5
feet each. The central domed chamber and four
adjoining chambers include many walls and
panels of Islamic decoration.
Taj Mahal is built entirely of white marble.
Its stunning architectural beauty is beyond
adequate description, particularly at dawn and
sunset. The Taj seems to glow in the light of the
full moon. On a foggy morning, the visitors
experience the Taj as if suspended when viewed
from across the Jamuna River.

Every April 21, people in Indonesia
commemorate the Kartini day. It is a beautiful
day for the woman because we celebrate the
birth of great lady, RA. Kartini. Everyone knows
who Kartini is. She is our national heroine
and a great lady with the bright idea. Kartini
was born in 1879, April 21 in Mayong Jepara.
Her father was RMAA. Sosroningrat, Wedana
(assistant of head of regency) in Mayong.
Her mother, MA Ngasirah was a girl from
Teluk Awur village in Jepara. As the daughter
of a noble family, she felt luck because
she got more than the ordinary people
got. She got better education than other
children. She did anything she wants although it
was forbidden. She passed her childhood with her
brother and sister. Because she was very energetic,
her father called her “trinil” Then her father was
chosen as Bupati (the head of regency) in Jepara.
She and her family then moved from Mayong to
Jepara. In the same year, Kartini’s second sister
RA Kardinah was born. The environment in
Jepara gave her big chance to develop her idea.
She could study at the Dutch owned school
where only children from noble family could
study here. Few years after finishing her study,
RA. Kartini was willing to continue her study in
higher level. But the custom of that day forbid a
woman to go to school. A tradition of that time, a
teenage girl should be secluded and limited her
activity. So was Kartini. She was secluded inside
the house and forbidden to go out until a man
proposed her. The rule could restrict her body
but not her mind. During her “pingitan” time,
she spent her time by reading book which she
got from her relatives. Although she was not able
to continue her study to higher level, she was
smart had a bright idea. She got the knowledge
from the books she read. To express her idea,
she established a school for local people on
the backyard of Jepara city hall. In November 12, 1903,
she married Adipati Djoyodiningrat, the head of
Rembang regency. According to Javanese tradition
Kartini had to follow her husband. Then she
moved to Rembang. In September 13, 1904 she
gave a birth to her son. His name was Singgih.
But after giving birth to a son, her condition was
jalurmas_media@yahoo.co.id
getting worse and she finally passed away on
September 17, 1904 on her 25 years old. Now

The following text is for questions no 34 to 37.
An iceberg is an enormous piece of ice
floating in the sea. ‘Berg’ is the German word
for mountain. In the coldest parts of the earth,
around the North and South Poles, land and
sea are both covered by sheets of ice, over 300
meters deep at the centre.
Tongues of ice, called glaciers, stretch out
into the open waters of the oceans. The sea
water melts the bottom parts of these glaciers,
and then the top part slides into the water with
a mighty roar. The great piece of ice sinks for
a short time beneath the surface then it rises
again, and floats away as a new iceberg.
Some icebergs are miles across to begin
with, and travel for thousands of miles and
several years before they finally melt. The part
of an iceberg which can be seen above the water
is only about one-ninth of the total size. The rest
is hidden beneath the waves.
One of the world’s worst disasters at sea
was in 1912 when the liner ‘Titanic’ collided

a large black funnel which hangs down from a
storm cloud. The following text is for questions no 42 and 43.

The name “tornado” derives from the

Latin “tonare”. It means “to thunder.” While
the Spanish developed the word into “tornear”,
which means “to turn or twist”. This is why a
tornado is sometimes called twister or cyclone.
The winds inside a twister can spin around at
speeds up to 500 miles an hour, but it usually
travels at roughly 300 miles an hour. This speed
twisting makes a tornado the most dangerous
storm.
The average tornado has a diameter of
about 200 to 300 yards. The smaller tornadoes
are known as satellite tornadoes. These small
offspring, about 50 yards across, can be very
fierce and do lots of damage. The forming of
a tornado can be very quick. Sometimes it can
form in a minute or less. A tornado can travel
across the ground at high speeds, and then it can
suddenly vanish. Most tornadoes last less than
twenty minutes and travel less than 15 miles. 42. What is the text about?
