Every country has people who are too poor to live a decent, comfortable life. They do not
have enough to eat. They live in shack that they have built for themselves out of scraps of wood
and metal-sometimes even out cardboard packing-cases. Often they have no proper water supply
or drains. When they are ill, they cannot afford to go to the doctor. When they are cold, they have
to look for fuel to light a fire.
On the hillsides in Brazil, the shacks of the poor are piled on top of one another like old
cars in a scrap-yards. And scrap-yards are often what shanty towns are like places for people who
have nowhere else to go.
Thousand of Brazilians leave the countryside each year and travel to the cities to seek a
better life. When they arrive, they find that things are no better than in the country. There are few
jobs to be had. The only way to find a place to sleep-other than on the streets as many have to
do-is to move in with friends or build a shack of their own.
For these people, sleeping is often the best way to forget how hard life is. If you sleep, at
least you might dream of better things.

a. The poor like sleeping because they are very lazy.
b. It is difficult to find a job in the city.
c. Every country has its poverty problems.
d. Sleeping is a way to escape from reality.

Governor Sutiyoso has launched his mass rapid transportation plan. This includes
monorail, subway, water transportation, and Busway. Among the public transportation plan,
Busway has been put into effect. The air conditioned bus fleet with their special roads have been
operated since last year. Now more routes are being constructed to cover the five mayoralties. In
fact, the existence of Busway makes pros and cons.
Some people consider Busway can solve a traffic problem faced by the metropolitan city.
Every day millions of people commute from their houses to their respective work places. This
badly needs adequate public transportation. If fifty persons go to their officer by cars, they need
fifty cars roaming on the street. This number of cars can be replaced by only one Busway.
Consequently, with reduced vehicles the streets are less congested. Therefore, I can decline
traffic jams. Apart from reducing traffic jams, Busway eases Jakarta inhabitants to go to their
workplace or other destination. For this reason more access on Busway is being accomplished.
Other Busway roads. Have been constructed, such as, Kota-Kalideres, and Kota-Polugadung.
This definitely make easies for people who go for rcreation to the zoo.
Besides reducing traffic jam and comforting passengers, Busway can minimize air
pollution. As stated, Busway can replace other vehicles in a great number. It apparently declines
the danger of pollution. Less vehicles means less carbon monoxide coming out from the
exhausted fumes. As a result, the residents of Jakarta are less threatened with sickness caused by
air pollution. And it Busway administration can manage the public transport well, Busway can
create a new icon of Jakarta.
Those who resist the existence of Busway argue that instead of solving a problem,
Busway create a new problem. Busway even makes traffic worse. The Busway line makes the
roads narrower. Narrow roads cause passing vehicles to get stuck especially during rush hours.
Furthermore, Busway adds up corruption that has become a vicious circle in this country. As
reported in a newspaper the purchase of Busway fleet is under corruption suspect. Billions of
expense, Busway fare is also much expensive than an ordinary bus. It costs Rp. 3.500 for once
ride, while the common bus only costs Rp. 2.000. With the difference in the bus fare, it is likely
that passengers prefer to ride ordinary buses.
Apparently, Busway still creates different outlooks among the residents of Jakarta. In
spite of all the critics, the governor of Jakarta firmly continues to extend its route.
Halaman 7
c. Mllions of people drive their cars.
d. More Busway roads are being constructed.
e. Busway benefit the city’s residents.
34. ‘Consequently, with reduced vehicles the streets are less congested.’ (Paragraph 1) what

a. Dirty. d. Polluted.
b. Smelly. e. Crowded.
c. Slippery.

My mother is a fifty-year old widow. She and my father were very happy together – and I know
she has been very lonely since he died.
I am very fond of her but sometimes her behavior is unreasonable. She is still quite
attractive , even to men who are much younger than she is. Recently she has been seeing a lot
with a thirty-six-year-old man whose wife died a few years ago in a car crash. I was very worried
about this, but said nothing about it until yesterday. That was when she told me she intended to
get married again. Can you guess who the “lucky man is?”
Naturally, I told her I would refuse to come to the wedding or have anything more to do
with her if she went ahead with this crazy idea. But she refuse to listen the reason.
She doesn’t seem to understand I am only trying to protect her from all the problem and
unhappiness she will have. Obviously, I can’t forbid her to get married. But there must be
something I can do to stop her. Don’t you agree that it is very likely the man is interested only
her money?
