The number of damaged roads linking Jakarta with West Java has certainly provoked complaints from
locals and road users. Take for an example, the roads in Bekasi and Tangerang, which have been the
focus of the media.
The poor condition of these roads not only jeopardizes road safety but also gives a squalid impression.
Moreover, the condition will get worse when it rains. The roads are transformed into water pools or
puddles, which can easily cause accidents if motorists are not careful.
No wonder if some people question why there are so many damaged roads and why repairs do not
seem to last long. The government should pay special attention to these problems.
In my opinion, the road should be repaired using the right sort of asphalt, stones an sand. Repairs should
be done carefully so that the roads can be prevented from constant damage. Otherwise, the repairs
would be useless.
1. The main reason why local and road users complain about the poor condition of roads in Jakarta is ….
A. the roads become into water pools or puddles in rainy season
B. there is no attention from the government about the problem
C. it endangers road users when they pass into these roads
D. the damaged roads are repaired by the Government carelessly so they are easily broken
E. the repairs of the roads need more time to do
Continued progress in advanced technology is not necessary. Already the technical progress in our world
has caused severe pollution in the air and in the water. Although the technical progress in previous years
has been helpful, recent technology has significantly increased pollution. Another reason to stop
technical progress is that many inventions which were developed for good causes are now also used for
powerful weapons to have been found have serious side effects. For example, pesticide put inside
particle boards to prevent termites has now be found to be toxic to human life. Technology does not
always bring good effects; for example, computers do much work faster than man, but then man loses
his job to a machine. Because no man can guarantee that technology will have only good effects and will
be used only for the benefit of man, we should delay the continued development of technology.
6. “For example, pesticide put inside particle boards to proscribe termites has now be found to be toxic
to human life”

A. prevent
B. authorize
