Mentawai Islands was hit by a tsunami on
Monday, 25 October 2010, triggered by a 7.2
magnitude earthquake. The quake was hardly felt
because most residents were inside their home
due to rain. It was confirmed that more than 400
people were killed and 100 more missing. Many
of the missing was swept out the sea.
A tsunami warning that had been issued
immediately after the temblor struck was lifted.
The West Sumatra Disaster Mitigation Agency
Operation Control Centre had not established a
tsunami early warning system for Mentawai
Islands, and even the most advanced equipment
could not have processed warning signs fast
enough to avoid disaster in the regency after the
earthquake.
As many as 2,000 families were displaced and
900 families in 22 villages were relocated 9 to 12
kilometers from their original homes. One family
stated that they had stayed at an evacuation center
for two months before moving into a house
provided by the Indonesian Red Cross for three
years before finally moving into their new home.
They received cash aid only for the first year at
the temporary house and after depended on aid
given by local people to meet their needs.

Human body is made up of countless millions of cells.
Food is needed to built up new cells and replace the
worn out cells. However, the food that we take must
be changed into substances that can be carried in the
blood to the places where they are needed. This
process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the mouth.
The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by the
action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by
glands in the mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice
which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus
(the food passage) into the stomach. Here, the food is
mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the
stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the
small intestine. All the ti me the muscular walls of the
intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the food
onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are
soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch
projections from the intestine walls) and passed into
the bloodstream.
23. What is the text about?
A. The digestive system
B. The digestive juice
C. The method of the digestive system

24. How can we swallow the food easily?
A. The food changes into acids absorbed by
the villi.
B. The food must be digested first through the
process.
C. The food is directly swallowed through
esophagus into the stomach.
D. The food is mixed with the juices secreted
by the cells in the stomach.
E. The food we take must be changed into
substances carried in the blood to the
places.
25. From the text above, we imply that ….
A. A good process of digestive system will
help our body becoming healthier.
B. No one concerned with the process of
digestive system for their health.
C. The digestive system is needed if we are
eating the food instantly.
D. Every body must conduct the processes of
digestive system well.
E. The better we digest the food we eat, the
healthier we will be.

Have you ever wondered how people get
chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the amazing
world of chocolate so you can understand exactly
what you’re eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree.
This tree grows in equatorial regions, es pecially in
places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia.
The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a
small pine apple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds,
also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried
in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker.
The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to
bring out the flavour. Different beans from different
places have different qualities and flavor, so they are
often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix.
Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing
removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell.
Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are
ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called
chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain
some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not
different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is
why the ground nibs form liquid. It’s pure bitter
chocolate.
28. The text is about …
 A. The cacao tree
B. The cacao beans
C. The raw chocolate
D. The making of chocolate
E. The flavour of chocolate
29. The third paragraph focuses on …

produce …” (Paragraph 3.) The word “sorted
“is close in meaning to …
A. Arranged
B. Combined
C. Separated
D. Distributed
E. Organized
31. How does the chocolate maker start to make
chocolate?
A. By fermenting the beans.
B. By roasting the beans
C. By blending the beans.
D. By sorting the beans.
E. By drying the beans

What is photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is a food-
making process that occurs in green plants. It is the
chief function of leaves. The word photosynthesis
means putting together with light. Green plants use
energy from light to combine carbon dioxide and
water to make sugar and other chemical compounds.
How is the light used in photosynthesis?
The light used in photosynthesis is absorbed by a
green pigment called chlorophyll. Each food-making
cell in a plant leaf contains chlorophyll in small bodies
called chloroplasts. In chloroplast, light energy causes
water drawn form the soil to split into hydrogen and
oxygen.
What are the steps of photosynthesis process? Let
me tell you the process of photosynthesis, in a series
of complicated steps, the hydrogen combines with
carbon dioxide from the air, forming a simple sugar.
Oxygen from the water molecules is given off in the
process. From sugar together with nitrogen, sulphur,
and phosporus from the soil -green plants can make
starch, fat, protein, vitamins, and other complex
compounds essential for life. Photosynthesis provides
the chemical energy that is needed to produced these
compounds.
32. What step after the hydrogen combines with
carbon dioxide from the air …
A. Photosynthesis provides the chemical
energy that is needed to produced these
compounds.
B. Water drawn form the soil to split into
hydrogen and oxygen.
C. Food-making process that occurs in green
plants.
D. Phosporus from the soil-green plants can
make starch, fat, protein, vitamins, and
other complex compounds essential for life.
E. Oxygen from the water molecules is given
off in the process.
33. What are photosynthesis need …
A. Water, light, oxygen, worm
B. Soil, chlorophyll, sun, human
C. Bug, air, oxigen, food
D. Light, Carbon dioxide, humus
E. Candle, vitamins, hydrogen
34. What the product of photosynthesis …
A. Sugar
B. Food and O2
C. Root
D. Food
E. Branch
35. What kind of the text …
A. Narrative text
B. Recount text
C. Discussion text
D. Explanation text
E. Descriptive text

A natural disaster is a terrible accident, e.g. a great
flood, a big fire or an earthquake. It usually causes
great suffering and loss of a large sum of money. The
casualties are injured or died. Some people are
homeless and need medical care.
Floods occur when the water of rivers, lakes, or
streams overflow their banks and pour onto the
surrounding land. Floods are caused by many different
things. Often heavy rainstorms that last for a brief can
cause a flood. But not all heavy storms are followed by
flooding. If the surrounding land is flat and can absorb
the water, no flooding will occur. If, however, the land
is hard and rocky, heavy rain cannot be absorbed.
Where the banks are low, a river may overflow and
flood adjacent lowland.
In many part of the world flood are caused by
tropical storms called hurricanes or typhoons. They
bring destructive winds of high speed, torrents of rain,
and flooding. When a flood occurs, the destruction to
surrounding land can be severe. Whole villages and
towns are sometimes swept away by water pouring
swiftly over the land. Railroad track blocked and
uprooted from their beds. Highways are washed away.
When a building caught fire, the firemen pitched in
to help battle the blaze. Before the pumps were
invented, people formed bucket brigades to fight fires.
Standing side by side, they formed a human chain
from the fire to nearby well or river. They passed
buckets of water from to hand to be poured on the
flames.
The damage of the fire did depend a great deal on
where it happened. In the country or a small village,
only a single house might burn down. But in crowded
cities, fire often destroyed whole blocks and
neighborhoods before being controlled
36. What can possibly prevent rivers and lakes
from overflowing?
A. An absorbent bed.
B. A rocky surrounding.
C. A low land.
D. A high bank
E. A high road
37. We know from the text that . . . .
A. River can sweep heavy flood
B. People can make money from flood
C. The destruction by flood is always less
severe
D. Water flood is absorbed by land
E. Typhoons caused heavy flood
38. We know from the text that . . . .
A. The pump is the only tool used by fire
fighters now
B. The pump helps people to fight fires more
efficiently
C. Fires in big cities are always very big
D. People no longer use buckets to control fire
E. Only firemen can control fires in crowded
cities

Silkworms live for only two or three days after
laying eggs. About 36,000 to 50,000 eggs are laid, and
these are carefully stored at the silkworm farm until

they are ready to hatch. The eggs hatch into
caterpillars, which feed on mulberry leaves. Soon, the
caterpillars are ready to spin their cocoons. Not all
caterpillars can spin silk cocoons. Only the caterpillars
of a silkworm moth known as ‘Bombyx mari’ can do
such spinning. This caterpillar has special glands which
secrete liquid silk through its lower lip. The liquid
produced later hardens to form tine strands.
The caterpillar makes its cocoons using these
strands. The threads on the outside of the cocoon are
rough, while those inside are soft and smooth.
Some fully-spun cocoons are heated. This kills the
pupa inside. The cocoons are then put into hot water
to loosen the fine threads. Finally, these threads are
reeled off the cocoons.
The length of unbroken thread produced by a
single cocoon measures about one-and-a-half
kilometers. Being twisted together several of these
threads make single woven materials.
