break the rules, behave, penalty, moral choice

In all societies relations between people are regulated by prescriptive laws. Some of them are
customs – that is, informal rules of social and moral behavior. Customs need not to be made
by governments, and they need not to be written down. We learn how we are expected to _____
(14) in society through the instruction of family and teachers, the advice of friends, and our
own experience in communication with other people. Thus moral rules and ethics remind us
that it is immoral to covet, to tell lies, or to defame the dead. Sometimes we can break these
rules without suffering any_______(15). But if we continually____(16), or break a very
important one, we may lose our friends or their respect. The law, however, is not concerned
with these matters and leaves them to the individual’s ________ (17) and the pressure of public
opinion results no legal actions.

READING
Read the text carefully and answer the questions below
In many countries the legal systems are very complex. This is because they have been
developed over very long times. Every time that a new case is decided it can have an effect on
future cases. This means that the people who work in legal situations have to be clever. They
have to know and understand all the rules and precedents. A precedent is when a previous
decision will have an effect on future cases as it was related to an important point. There are
many people who work with the law, such as solicitors or judges.
A solicitor is a lawyer who spends most of their time advising their clients and preparing
legal documents, such as wills or contracts for buying and selling houses. They need to be very
careful and make sure that all the details are correct, otherwise their clients might lose a lot of
money. A barrister is a type of lawyer who works in court rooms. They will either work for the
prosecution or defense sides. If they are a prosecution lawyer they are trying to prove that the
defendant (the person on trial) committed a crime. They have to present evidence to show that
the defendant is guilty. If they are a defense lawyer then they work for the defendant and have
to show that the evidence presented is not enough to prove that their client is guilty and he
should be judged to be not guilty. Then there are judges and magistrates. A magistrate will hear
trials about less serious crimes, while a judge’s will be about more serious crimes. These are
the people who have to decide what punishment will be given to someone who is guilty. The
punishments could range from a small fine up to a long prison sentence, and even a death
sentence in some countries. The trial happens in the judge’s courtroom, so the judge is
responsible for making sure the trial is run fairly and follows the law.
If a lawyer believes that a trial was not fair or there was a mistake in the law, they can
ask for a new trial that will generally be hear by an appeal court where an appeal judge will be
in charge. Often appeal judges will be the most experienced judges in a country, so they know
a lot about the law and how to apply it.
Questions:
1. What do lawyers have to be?
a. Clever
b. Nice
c. Greedy
2. What could happen if a solicitor makes a mistake?
a. Someone who is innocent could go to prison.
b. Someone could lose their job.
c. The client could lose some money.
3. Why might an appeal be needed?
a. The first trial was done perfectly.
b. The first trial was not fair.
c. The first trial took too long to finish

Read the following passage then determine whether the statement No. 17-20 are TRUE
or FALSE (T/F).
A Political Party is a group organized to support certain policies or questions of public
interest. The aim of political party is to elect officials who will try to carry out the party’s
policies. The questions may range from issues of peace, war and taxes to how people should
earn a living. A large political party usually has millions of members and supporters. When
people in a democracy disagree about what the government should do, each voter expresses his
opinion by voting for the candidate that supports his side of the agreement.
 Newspapers, radio and television have a strong influence on political parties. The
parties use radio and television to hold public opinion. Some countries have only one party,
and others have many. In Cuba and China, there is only one party: the Communist party. One
party rule is also common in much of Africa and Latin America. Under such a system people
who do not agree with the party in power cannot express their objections by voting for another
party.
The countries where two or more parties have the right to compete with each other in
elections are the democracies. Democracies usually operate under either a two-party or a multi-
party system. Many European countries have multi-party system. Among there are Norway,
Sweden, Denmark, France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands. Because of the number
of the competing parties, it is sometimes difficult for any one party to get a clear majority of
the votes.
Questions:
17. A group organized to support certain policies is called a political party. (T/F)
18. Political party elects officials carrying out the officials’ policies. (T/F)
19. Voters express their opinion by voting the candidate that against their agreement. (T/F)
20. Newspapers, radio, and television have significant influence on political parties. (T/F)
 KEY ANSWER & EXPLANATION OF JPT 2021
SESSION 2
Section 1 (Choose the best answer)
1. C. Where
Hint: Wh-question
Wh-questions are questions that begin with one of the eight “wh” words: who, whose,
what, when, which, why, where and how. Questions formed with “wh” words ask about
the word or phrase the “wh” word replaces. Simply said, we use them to ask for
information. The answer cannot be yes or no. Because it can’t be answered only by
yes/no, it’s usually called as an open-ended question. Example:
Q: Who is your favorite female singer?
A: My favorite female singer is Taylor Swift for sure!

2. B. That
Hint: Relative clause
A relative clause is one kind of dependent clause. It has a subject and verb, but can’t
stand alone as a sentence. It is sometimes called an “adjective clause” because it
functions like an adjective—it gives more information about a noun. A relative clause
always begins with a “relative pronoun,” which substitutes for a noun, a noun phrase,
or a pronoun when sentences are combined.
 Relative pronoun as subject (in bold):
I like the person. The person was nice to me  I like the person who was nice to me.
Relative pronoun as object (in bold):
I like the piano. My uncle gave me the piano  I like the piano that my father gave
me.

3. A. All flights were cancelled because of fog.

Hint: Passive voice
Passive voice means that a subject is a recipient of a verb's action.

4. B. No, we aren't.
Hint: Yes/No Question
Yes / No questions are the questions which are answered yes or no. It means when we
are asking yes/no questions, we are expecting the answer, yes or no. Because the answer
 is only between yes or no (single-word answer), this type of question also usually called
as closed question.
To form Yes/No questions, we use one of these verbs: auxiliary verbs (be, do and have)
or modal verbs (can, may, etc.). We cannot use questions words like what, how, why,
who, etc. while making Yes/No questions.

5. B. must not they?

Hint: Question tag
Question tags are short questions at the end of statements. They are mainly used in
speech when we want to: confirm that something is true or not, or to encourage a
reply from the person we are speaking to. If the sentence is affirmative, the tag will be
negative and if the sentence is negative, the tag will be positive.
Question tags are formed with the auxiliary or modal verb from the statement and the
appropriate subject. Other special points:
 Although the negative word not is not in the sentence, the sentence can be
negative. Then we use the positive question tag. Ex: He hardly
ever speaks, does he?
 If the verb is in the past simple we use did. Ex: They went to the
cinema, didn't they?
 We use shall after let’s. Ex: Let's take the next bus, shall we?
 We use won't with a polite request. Ex: Open the window, won't you?
6. C. longer
Hint: Comparative degree
Comparative adjectives/degree are used to compare differences between the two objects
they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in sentences where two
nouns are compared, in this pattern:
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
Example: This box is smaller than the one I lost.

Additional information:
Superlative adjectives/degree are used to describe an object which is at the upper or
lower limit of a quality (the tallest, the smallest, the fastest, the highest). They are used
in sentences where a subject is compared to a group of objects.
Noun (subject) + verb + the + superlative adjective + noun (object).
Example: This is the smallest box I've ever seen.
TIPS: Perbanyak review dan latihan soal terutama terkait materi kuliah yang diberikan dosen

Section 2 (Choose the right form)

7. Restricted
Under the new rules, working time is restricted to 45 hours a week.
Hint: Passive Voice (S + to be + V3)

acted upon. Below here is the transition from active to passive voice in every type of
tenses:
8. Relate
It is difficult to relate these result to any known phenomenon.
Hint: Infinitive
An infinitive is a verbal usually preceded by “to”. It is used as a noun, adjective, or an
adverb. Formula of Infinitive:

INFINITIVE = TO + VERB
Example: I love to read

9. Prevented
There were reports that some people had been prevented from voting in the elections.

The Koran is the basis of Islamic law, the sharia. All of activity of the Muslim is
built into the framework of the sharia, which discusses the believer’s duties toward God
and his fellow beings. The sharia can be described as “the entirety* of Divine commands
concerning human actions”, while God is the- sole lawgiver. Muslims soon felt that it will
be impossible to fulfill all the requirements of the sharia. But to deny the validity* of the
sharia is not permitted. Forming the practical aspect of Muhammad’s religious teaching,
the sharia has been transmitted during the centuries from generation to generation. The
juridical part of the sharia was codified for the first time in the Ottoman Empire on 1869.
TIPS: Baca paragraf yang disajikan dengan seksama dan pahami konteksnya. Perhatikan
kata-kata yang disediakan. Ketahui/cari tahu arti dari masing-masing kata. Pilih dan
tempatkan kata pada bagian yang rumpang dengan terlebih dulu menyesuaikan ke konteks
paragrafnya.

Section 5 (Read the following passage then determine whether the statement (T/F))
17. A group organized to support certain policies is called a political party (T)
Perhatikan paragraf pertama pada kalimat pertama!
“A Political Party is a group organized to support certain policies or questions of
public interest….”
Inti dari kalimat tersebut sama seperti halnya pernyataan yang ditanyakan. Hanya saja
pernyataan yang sedang ditanyakan T/F diubah bentuknya dari yang berupa kalimat
aktif menjadi kalimat pasif sehingga jawabannya TRUE.

18. Political party elects officials carrying out the officials’ policies (F)
Perhatikan paragraf pertama pada kalimat kedua!
“….The aim of political party is to elect officials who will try to carry out the party’s
policies…”
Pernyataan yang sedang ditanyakan kebenarannya tidak sesuai sebagaimana
informasi yang ada di paragrapf (perhatikan juga kata-kata di atas yang dicetak tebal)
sehingga jawabannya FALSE.
 19. Voters express their opinion by voting the candidate that against their agreement (F)
Perhatikan paragraf pertama pada kalimat terakhir!
“……each voter expresses his opinion by voting for the candidate that supports his
side of the agreement. “
Maksud yang ada dalam pernyataan yang ditanyakan dengan kalimat yang ada dalam
paragraf berbeda. Hal ini ditandai dengan penggunaan kata “against” pada pernyataan
di atas dan kata “support” pada kutipan kalimat di atas yang mana keduanya memiliki
makna yang kontradiktif. Karenanya, pernyataan tersebut FALSE karena tidak sesuai.

20. Newspapers, radio, and television have significant influence on political parties (T)
Perhatikan paragraf kedua pada kalimat pertama!
“Newspapers, radio and television have a strong influence on political parties…”
Secara umum, maksud yang ada dalam pernyataan yang ditanyakan dengan kalimat
yang ada dalam paragraf sama meskipun terdapat satu modifikasi dari kata “strong” 
“significant”. Akan tetapi, hal itu bukan masalah karena pada dasarnya kedua kata
tersebut memiliki makna yang sama dan kalaupun diganti seperti halnya dalam hal ini
tidak mengubah maksud kalimat secara keseluruhan. Oleh karena itu, pernyataan
tersebut dinilai TRUE.
TIPS:
Baca teksnya baik-baik dan ambil semua data/informasi dari teksnya. Jangan buat kesimpulan
baru dari apa yang sudah disampaikan di dalam teks. Jadi harus stick to the text! Selain itu,
sambil banyak-banyak pelajari dan diperkaya lagi pengetahuan terkait vocabulary untuk
mengetahui sinonim dan antonim sehingga bisa lebih mudah dalam mengidentifikasi dan
menjawab soal dengan tipe ini.
