Blinking our eyes automatically supplies two forms of moisture to our eyes, to keep them from
drying out, and to keep foreign matters from entering and irritating our eyes. Eyelids themselves,
our built-in ”Wind-shield wipers,” are merely folds of skin, controlled by muscles capable of
expanding and contracting so rapidly, that blinking does not impair our vision. Mother Nature lined
the rims of our eyelids with 20-30 sebaceous , oil-producing glands, which are located between our
eyelashes with the lubricant it secretes, to prevent them from drying out.
Blinking also protects the eye from dryness by irrigating, not by irritating, the eyes. The eyelid,
through suction, automatically draws the fluid we cry with from the well we refer to as the tear duct
over the eyeball, to irrigate, and moisturize the eye. The process is similar to the manner in which
the farmer uses water to irrigate his crops during a dry spell.
Blinking is to shield the eye from foreign bodies. Our eyelashes, short, curved, hairs, attached
to the eyelids, serve as a dust-catchers, as the blinking reflex causes them automatically to lower,
when exposed to hash elements. Nature endowed the camel with extraordinary long, curly,
eyelashes, to protect his eyes from sudden sandstorms in the desert. incidentally, the ”camel
eyelash” look is one many woman attempt to duplicate by using an eyelash curler! Eyebrows, by the
way, also serves their purpose, as they catch the run-off perspiration produces.

Hacking: Pro and Contra?

Do you know what a hacker is? A hacker is a person who enjoys exploring the details of a
programmable system on computer and he or she likes to stretch the capability of the system. The
activities they do in the computers are called „hacking‟.
So, what‟s the problem with „hacking and its hackers?‟. The problem is whether „hacking and
its hackers‟ is legal or illegal. What I mean is that people in the world have many different views
about hacking and the hackers. Some of them take sides, but many object.
To get back to what I was saying previously, let‟s see the positive point of a hacker, shall we?
Although in most places breaking into computer systems is considered illegal, I believe that hackers
don‟t do anything illegal because they only want to know and try the system. I dare to say that a
hacker likes finding the strength and the weaknesses of a computer system. They feel proud if they
can find the weaknesses. So, I don‟t really see the crimes in this case. In addition, these hackers
sometimes help the police catch the „white color criminals‟, such as bank robbers, money launderers,
credit cards forgers. For example, in 2000, the U.S. hackers caught some Singaporeans hackers who
made „Virus Love‟ to break up programs of the U.S National Security system.
Nevertheless, those who object to the good points of hackers say that hacking is a crime. The
reason is that some hackers use their brilliant skills to break into banks and other vital institutions
where they can get money and destroy information, and the worst thing is they can get secret
information and sell it to other country. This a treachery.penghianatan

27. Which of the following activities done by hackers is considered illegal?

A. Breaking into vital institutions‟ network system.
B. Feeling proud of finding the system weaknesses.
C. Helping the police catch the white-collar criminals.
D. Helping to improve the real safety system of computers.
E. Finding he strengths and the weaknesses of a computer system

28. What is the main idea of paragraph 4?

A. Hackers are criminals.
B. Hackers are responsible for their duties.
C. Hackers get money from vital institutions.
D. Hackers have brilliant skill for the goodness.
E. Hackers use brilliant skill to help other people.

29. What can we infer from the text?

A. Hackers are not loyal to their countries.
B. Hackers do something without any crime.
C. Hacker always help the police fight against criminals.
D. Hackers are responsible for your computers‟ damage.
E. Hackers can turn to be criminals due to money orientation

Snow is the collection of ice crystals that are tiny and attach to one another. The ice crystal is
also clear and colorless while the accumulated crystals combine to form snowflakes.
The snow is visible to us due to the presence of light. Snow falls from the above in the
atmosphere and reaches the ground. The ice crystal will enable the light falling on them to get
reflected to their surface. There are multiple faces for the crystals and hence the light also gets
tersebar scattered. Visible light has various wavelengths of light that are visualized by us. When light falls on
any object some part of the light will be absorbed and the other part will be reflected. The reflected
part of light reaches out eyes and makes us recognizes the colors.
The light fallen on the light crystals also do not pass through the crystals for a long distance
but tend to change directions. The light also gets reflected at an angle in the interior of the ice. As
snow exist as collection of snowflakes on the ground, the light that falls on them will not have a
particular wavelength that is reflected with some regularity. So, most of the light that falls on the

snow is white in color.
