One day,
when Sangkuriang was hunting, he accidentally killed his beautiful black dog Si Tumang. This dog
is actually Sangkuriang's father who had been condemned to live the life of a dog by his GURU.
However, Sangkuriang never knew it.
Sangkuriang had been separated from his mother since
childhood. On his way home, he stopped at a small village and fell in love with
a beautiful girl. He didn't realized that the village was his homeland nor that the
beautiful girl was his own sacred mother who remained young and pretty.
Their love grew naturally and one day, when they were
discussing their wedding plans, Dayang Sumbi suddenly realized that the profile of
Sangkuriang's head matched that of her son's who had left twenty years earlier. How
could she marry her own son? But she did not wish to disappoint him. ' So she agreed to
marry Sangkuriang only on the condition that he would provide her with a lake and a boat
with which they could sail on their
wedding day the next day at dawn.
Sangkuriang accepted this condition. He dammed up the
Citarum river to make a lake. Dayang Sumbi realized that Sangkuriang would

the eastern horizon with flashes of light. Deceived by false dawn, the cock crowed and farmers
rose for the new day.

that he failed to finish the boat. With all his anger, he kicked the unfinished boat upside — down. The boat
is now known as the mount TANGKUBAN PARAHU.
In Sundanese TANGKUBAN means upturned or upside down, and PARAHU means boat. With the dam torn asunder, the water
drained off the lake and made the lake a wide plain. It is now called
Bandung from the word BENDUNG which means dam.

Igloos or
snow houses are shelters constructed from blocks of snow, generally in the form
of a dome. Although igloos are usually associated with all Inuit, they were
predominantly constructed by people of Canada's Central Arctic and Greenland's
Thule area. Inuit people tended to use snow to insulate their houses. The
temperature outside may be as low as —45°C, but on the inside the
temperature may range from –7°C to 16°C when warmed by body heat alone.
There were
three traditional types of igloos. The smallest one was constructed as a
temporary shelter, usually used for one or two nights. These were built and
used during hunting trips, often on open sea ice. Next in size was the semi
permanent, intermediate-sized for family dwelling. This is a single room
dwelling that housed one or two families. The largest of the igloos is normally
built in groups of two. These might have had up to five rooms and housed up to

Democracy
is a form of government. The word democracy means rule by the people. Abraham
Lincoln described such self-government as government of the people, by the people, for the people.
The citizens of a
democracy take part in government either directly or indirectly. In a direct, or pure,
democracy, the people meet in one place to make the laws for their community.
Most modern
democracy is representative democracy. In large communities-cities, states,
provinces, or countries- it is impossible for all the people to meet as a group. Instead, they
elect certain number of their fellow citizens to represent them in making
decisions about laws and other matters that affect the people. An assembly of representatives may be
called a council, a legislature, a parliament, or a congress. Government by the
people through their freely elected representatives is sometimes called republican government.
The democratic
way of life recognizes the equality and dignity of all persons regardless of race,
religion, sex, or social standing. It holds that everyone is equal in court trials and other
legal matters. It provides freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of religion.
Almost
all governments claim to be democratic, but many are actually totalitarian.

The following text is for Questions 47 to 50.
Sutiyoso will be given an Asian Air
Quality Management Award Friday at an International Conference in Yogyakarta,
but some people have questions whether he really deserved the honor. The
critics say Sutiyoso has done little to reduce air pollution in the capital.
I think
Sutiyoso deserved the award. Although we haven't seen solid air
quality
Although he has
restored the National Monument (Monas) Park to a green cool area where families
can go to jog or have a picnic.
He also initiated
the bus way project, which I believe is a good step toward reducing air
pollution in Jakarta.However the government has to take
further action, such as limiting the number of motorcycles in Jakarta.
All of the motorcycles on the roads contribute to air pollution in the city.
On the other hand, some people can't understand
how Sutiyoso can win this award because he hasn't made any improvement in
Jakarta's air management. Jakarta is becoming more polluted as
the authorities cut down more and more trees for transportation
projects. And they don't bother to plant new trees to replace the old ones, let
alone develop new green areas.
The authorities should build more parks in
the city to make Jakarta greener and less polluted. Monas park
is greener now, but the fences prevent people from getting in. In countries
like Singapore and Australia, public parks are pleasant places to hang out.
47. Why did people say that Sutiyoso
deserved the award?
A.
Monas park is green now.
B.
Jakarta is becoming more polluted.
C.
He has improved Jakarta's air management.
D.
He limited the number of motorcycles in the city.
E.
He restored the Monas park and initiated the bus way project.
48. What has Sutiyoso done to reduce air pollution in
Jakarta?
A.
Initiating the bus project.
B.
Holding an international conference. D. Building fences around the Monas park.
C.
Limiting the number of motorcycles. E. Cutting
down more and more trees.
49. What is the purpose of
the text?
A.
To explain why Sutiyoso got an Asian Air Quality Management Award.
B.
To present points of views about the award given to Sutiyoso.
C.
To tell readers how to provide solid air quality management.
D.
To describe an Asian Air Quality Management Award.
E.
To assure readers that Sutiyoso deserved the award.
50. It is not easy to get in the Monas park because
....
A.
more and more trees were cut down C. it is
use for jogging track
B.
it is use for having a picnic D. there is a cool area E.
