This text is for questions 12 to 14.

Mr. Fitzgerald is my history teacher, and he is by far the best teacher that I have ever had. He has the ability to make a subject that many students find incredibly boring coming to life through his enthusiasm and passion for history, and his love of being a teacher. Going to his lessons is something we look forward to not dread, like we do with most other lessons. It’s ever so funny to watch him get excited about something, which happens in every lesson. It’s easy to know that he’s getting excited because he begins bouncing up and down slightly in a way that no other sixty-something year old would ever managed without looking completely ridiculous. He has this dark (with more and more grey streaks these days), springy hair that lines the edge of his growing bald patch, and the hair bounces up and down with him like thousands of tiny little springs. Then, he takes on his whole new persona, often going into role and becoming the character or figure he is talking about, doing the voices, the actions, and parading up and down the room gesticulating wildly, but all the while there’s a gentle bounce, bounce, bounce”, as though the springs are not just on his head but on the soles of his shoes too. It is actually this teacher that I have to thank for my love of history. In his lessons, history does not mean copying out of textbooks and writing pages and pages of notes. History is alive; history is something tangible, that you can see, hear and feel, and we can live it through dressing up and acting out scenes or taking trips to important places of historical interest.

12.         What is the writer’s purpose to write the text?

A.      To show his disrespect for his teacher

C.     never asks him to write many pages of notes

D.    often brings the students to important places of historical interest

The following text for questions 28 and 29.

Chepalopacus Bancanus Saltatore is a scientific name for Horsfield’s Tarsiers, which live in Belitung. The locals call these animals Pelile’an. Tarsiers are small animals. It is said that tarsiers are the tiniest primate in the world, due to their less than 150 grams weight. Tarsiers have many distinctive appearances with long tails which are longer than the entire body and big eyes that seem disproportionate to the little heads. Like every animal which has a tail, tarsiers’ tails also function to maintain balance. Tarsiers’ hair has a unique shade which is between grayish-brown to reddish-brown. They also have long hind legs that help them move from one tree to another. Their long legs are probably due to the elongation of bones in an area called tarsus, located around the foot. This is how they get their name. Tarsiers are carnivores, and their favorite food is insects. Their big eyes help them scout for their prey, by rotating a complete 180 degrees.  Tarsiers are nocturnal animals, and like dogs, they mark their territory with their urine. Not only that, they are also just like bats. They communicate using ultrasonic waves. Tarsiers do not move in a pack, because they are solitary animals, but interestingly, just like wolves, tarsiers mate for life. Sadly, right now there are not many tarsiers left in Belitung. Their population is declining because they are losing their habitat. There are many reasons for the habitat loss, but the main reason is because of humans who cut down the forest for palm oil plantations. Besides that, humans also destroy tarsiers’ homes for mining.

A.    Tarsiers live in a group.

The following text is for questions 35 to 38.

The orangutan comes from the family of apes and lives in Southeast Asia. In the local language, the name “orangutan” means ‘the man of the jungle’. Orangutans usually live in the northern corner of Sumatra and in Borneo. An orangutan has long arms, with hook-shaped hands to help them swing from tree to another by grabbing vines and branches. They rarely explore the ground, but when they do, they walk on all fours. Orangutans have a distinctive appearance. Their bodies are covered with long, rough, reddish-brown fur. Male orangutans are usually 95 cm in height and 77 kg in weight, while female orangutans are only 78 cm in height and 37 kg in weight. To differentiate between male orangutans and female orangutans, the males have puffy cheeks and a dangling throat-pouch which functions as air sack. The air sack helps produce a bubbling call and groaning, that can be heard from around 1 km away. Orangutans usually eat fruits, but sometimes they also eat eggs, termites, the soft part of inner barks, and young leaves. Orangutans accumulate fat in order to survive the monsoon season, which lasts from April to October, when food is scarce. Orangutans are solitary animals. They usually travel and find food independently. However, the females will seek the males when they are ready to mate. They will stay together for a few days until the female orangutan is pregnant. After that, they will go on their way again independently. The pregnancy time of orangutans is similar to humans, which is nine months. A female orangutan gives birth to one baby every four or eight years. The orangutan is one of the animals that humans like to hunt. Even though it is illegal to own, kill, and export orangutans, people keep poaching them. Not only that, humans also destroy orangutans’ home, the forest, for logging or palm oil plantation. In 1997 and 1998, there was a massive forest fire. Because of that forest fire, thousands of orangutans died. Not only orangutans, but other animals that lived in that forest also suffered and lost their homes.

35.         What is the writer’s intention to write the text?

Since the bridge was so narrow, there was only space for one goat to pass it. ‘Go back,’ said one goat, ‘No space for two.’ ‘Why should I? said the other goat. ‘You must go back.’ ‘You are the one that must go back,’ replied the first goat with anger, ‘because you are not as strong as me.’ ‘No one is stronger than me!’ said the second goat. ‘Let’s see,’ replied the first goat, and he positioned his horns to fight.
