 Text for questions number 20 to 21
Reports of bullying in schools have risen. The victims often ended up with depression
and mental illness. The issue of bullying cannot be taken lightly.

Bullying has effects on both victims and perpetrators. The victims will often feel lonely,
sad, and empty. It can also be traumatic. Some children who experience bullying
develop severe anxiety and depression. They have also eating and sleeping difficulties
which cause them to have health problems. Furthermore, the bullying affects their
school life; some even drop out from school.

As for the perpetrators, they will develop violent behaviour toward people and have
tendency to be abusive. They will have a hard time in adjusting to life with other people
as they cannot interact well with them. Sadly, there is a chance that bullying
perpetrators will likely emerge as criminals.

The effects of bullying are dreadful, and I believe that parents do not want to let
bullying happen to their children. We need to come with solutions to solve the issue of
school bullying.

20. What’s the topic of the second paragraph?

A. The effects of bullying on the perpetrators.
B. The effects of bullying on the victims.
C. The way bullies bully their victims.

E. Easy going

Text for question number 22 to 23

Energy gone? Finding yourself irritated by the people around you? Feeling
bored by the repetitive tasks that occupy you day after day? Well, you might just be in
need of a vacation.
Researchers have suggested that people who too frequently skip leisure
activities – such as taking vacation, going to the gym, or socializing with friends – will
more strongly feel the negative health effects associated with high levels of stress.
So, whether you hop on a plane for a tropical location or go for a walk down an
unfamiliar street, taking a break from the routine can increase levels of creativity and
productivity at work. It will also improve your overall health.
While most people clearly need to work in order to live, they must not fall into
the rut of living in order to work. Routinely taking a break – be it a short hike down a
favourite trail or a longer retreat to a favourite island – can preserve your health,
improve your attitude, and reinvigorate your creativity.

Adopted from: Sajitha Sivers, The Write Model, Johor, Fairfield Book Publisher PTE Ltd, 2016

The Benefit of Online Shopping

Smartphones are not only used as entertainment, but also function tools for a variety of tasks.
Many people nowadays have smartphones to sustain their daily lives, and one of them is to
shop. The term is commonly known as online shopping, meaning that they can buy what they
need online. There are three main benefits to online shopping. The first benefit is to save time
and energy. By online shopping, people do not need to waste their time and energy on the
road to shop at malls or physical stores. Instead they can just use their phone to browse the
stuff they need, add them to the cart and proceed to buy online. This can save much time and
energy for other activities. The second benefit is to have more options. As we know,
conventional stores have limited stocks and supplies. When we go to one shop and cannot
find what we need, we need to go to another place and so on. This can be solved by online
shopping, for we can just browse what we need by typing and scrolling. Last but not least, we
can also save money. Many online stores and websites offer us plenty of cashbacks that we
cannot find at offline stores. To summarize, online shopping has better advantages as not only
does it save our time and energy, it also saves money and provides us with numerous choices

Text for questions number 26 to 28

Nature VS Nurture

People wondered for a long time how their personalities and behaviors are formed. Two
distinct schools of thought on the matter have develop. The two approaches are very different
from each other. The controversy is often referred to as nature and nurture.

Those who support the nature side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior
patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors. That our environment has
little to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior is central to this theory.

Proponents of the nurture theory claim that our environment is more important than our
biologically based instinct in determining how we will act. They see humans as beings whose
behavior is almost completely shaped by their surroundings.

Neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behavior. In fact, it is quite likely that
the key to our behavior lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the controversy
will continue for a long time is certain.

D. It is easily solved now

Text for question number 29 to 32

Plastic trash is everywhere. As we know, a lot of things come in a plastic package or a plastic
bag. They will eventually pile up and end up in the landfill. However, plastic harms our
environment, as it takes a long time for it to break down. The use of plastic should be reduced
for the following environmental reasons.

Plastic trash, such as plastic straws, plastic bottle caps, or plastic bags harms our ocean and
its inhabitants. There are a lot of cases where fish mistake plastic for food. Then they will end
up hurting themselves by getting near the trash and even consuming it.

Plastic waste that floats away in the ocean will end up at the bottom of the ocean and among
the coral reefs. The coral reefs can also be damaged from the trash that keeps pilling up.
Plastic can contaminate and eventually destroy coral reefs.
