Bukit Duabelas National Park in Jambi is a relatively small park, compared to Indonesia’s large national parks. Covering only 60,500 hectares, the park was established in 2000, mainly to allow the regrowth of secondary forests and to protect the home of the forest people ‘Suku Anak Dalam’ or ‘Orang Rimba’.
The northern part of the park is primarily jungle, but the remainder is a tract of deforested land that was formerly a production forest, but allowed to revert as a trophical rainforest. The park is in fact the most important water catchment area in the province.
Bukit Duabelas, or Twelve Hills is a lowland park with undulating contours. This is the habitat of Sumatra’s endangered species, such as tapirs, gibbons, clouded leopards, sun bears, wild cats and crested serpent eagles, including endangered plant species.
Orang Rimba are an isolated tribe who have lived in these jungles for years and have maintaned their simple, nut-natural lifestyle. There are several theories and legends as to who they are and where they originate from. One story relates that when the Sultan of Palembang had feuds with the Sultan of Jambi, the Sultan of Jambi asked for help from the Sultan of Pagaruyung who in turn sent soldiers to Jambi. On their way in the dense jungles, never came back out, but instead settled in the Jambi jungles and adopted the natural lifestyle.
Anak Dalam tribe live in and around the forest, and survive chiefly on hunting, gathering, agriculture and fishing.

Gold is a precious metal. Gold is used as ornaments or as money.
Gold is found in many places, but in a small supply. It is often found on the surface of the earth. Since gold is a heavy substance, it is sometimes found loose on bottom of rivers. The gold is found together with sand and rocks, and must be separated from them. It is simple to search for this type of gold.
It is not usually necessary to drill for gold, but when a layer of gold is located deep below the surface of the earth, it is possible to drill a hole into the ground. Engineers have developed modern process for removing gold from rocks.

My Most Unforgettable Holiday
In 2015, I went to Derawan Island with my friends and that marks my most memorable holiday ever !
In June, our school was having summer holiday, so we thought to ourselves that it shouldn’t go to waste. We quickly browsed the internet to find a good holiday destination and after an hour of heated debate, the four of us agreed to give Derawan Island a try. It was purely out of curiousity as none of us had been there before.
We arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport at 05.30 a.m. as the flight was at 07.00 a.m. first, we flew to BalikPapan and waited for about an hour to continue the flight to Berau. As soon as we touch it down in Berau, my friend called the tour agent that we had contacted earlier in Jakarta. They had got a car ready to take us to Labuan Batu. From Labuan Batu, we took a speedboat for about an hour to Derawan Island. It was such along trip to Derawan but it all paid of as soon as we saw how beautiful the island was.
My friend and I were quickly ushered to our room in the resort. It was fantastic ! The room were in a cottage that was situated right above the sea. So we only had to step out the terrace to find ourselves out in the open sea ! After unpacking our luggages and washing up, we went to the dining hall to grab our dinner. The dinner was only simple seafood dishes. The surrounding totally enhanced the dining experience, making the food taste much better.
The following day, we took a speedboat tour, hoping from one island to another our first trip stop was Kakaban Island where we hiked to reach the lake and swam among stingless jellyfish. The last time a heard, there were only three places in the world that have stingless jellyfish; two of them in Indonesia! Isn’t that great ? The next stop was the Sangalaki Island where we got to visit sea turtle conservation and took lots of picture with sea turtle babies. They were so cute !
Our last stop was the Maratua Island where we were able to feed fish and see a three-legged sea turtle. The three-legged sea turtle wasn’t born that way. We were told that it was swimming in the open sea when it was still a baby then it’s leg got caught in plastic trash and couldn’t grow even when the sea turtle reached adulthood. One of the island’s guards saw the sea turtle and saved it. He also untangled the plastic trash that bound the sea turtles leg but it was too late. Since then the sea turtle is kept in a special space next to the resort in Maratua Island and the guard take turns feeding it to ensure it’s survival. This is why we should never litter an endangered other creatures ! After Maratua Island, we headed back to Derawan Island to catch a late dinner and turned in.
The following morning, we wake up early and ate our breakfast in the dining room. Then, the driver drove us back to the airport so we could catch a flight back to Jakarta. We arrived at Jakarta, exhausted but terribly happy !it was the most unforgettable trip I have ever experienced so far !

Damaged roads
The number of damaged roads linking Jakarta with West Java has certainly provoked complaints from locals and road users. Take, for example, the roads in Bekasi and Tangerang, which have been focus on 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.

A kite is an object which is made from a light material stretched over a frame. Due to its light material a kite will lift off the ground and fly when it is tilted into the wind.
A kite is uses wind to make it fly because it is heavier than air. When wind travels over the surface of the kite, it is split into two streams of air. One stream of the air goes over the kite while the second stream goes under the kite.
The upper stream above the kite. The lower stream hits the kite at a shallow angle and creates an area of high pressure.
The high pressure area has a pushing effect while the low pressure area has a pulling effect. The combination of push and pull can creates enough force to lift the kite into the air.
Kites have been known for thousands of years. They are used for military or scientific purposes. Todays kites are much used for leisure and competition.Bottom of Form

Some people claim that children do enough work in school already. They also argue that children have hobbies that they want to do after school, such, as sports or music. A further point they make is that a lot of homework is pointless and doesn’t help the child learn at all.
However, there are also strong arguments against this point of view. Parents and teachers argue that it is important to find out whether children can work on their ownwithout the support from the teacher. They say that the evening is a good time for children to sit down and think about what they have learned in school. Furthermore they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done that needs doing and it makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing tasks that don’t need teacher’s support.
On balance, I think that some homework is a good idea but that it should only given at the weekend when children have more time.
33. Those who are pro homework think that the students can … in the evening.

Integrated Pest Management
There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculture. Pesticides which are commonly used may cause many problems. I think combining different management operations is the most effective way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up as residues in the environment and in the soil which absorbs the chemicals. This reduces the quality of farm product.
Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means that newer and stronger ones have to be developed. Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and animals such as fish and bees. This affects the ecology and environment as well.
Finally, understanding of ecology of an area helps a lot in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen and applied carefully so that they don’t affect the ecological balance and environment. Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option to fight pest in agriculture and livestock.
42. One of the disadvantages of using chemical pesticides is …
A. Killing fish and bees.
B. Increasing crops productivity.
C. Creating balanced ecosystem.
D. Causing the pests to become inactive
E. Helping reduce pollutants in the environment.

A. Plants
B. Ecology
C. Animals.

The Digestive System
Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to build up new cells and replace the worn-out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed into substances that can be carried out 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 juices which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing, and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the foods change into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the bloodstream.
46. “The digestive system begins as soon as we put the food into the mouth.” This information can be found in paragraphs...

B. Two
