I. Listening Comprehension
Listen to the video about sports. Determine whether the statements
below are true or false based on the video.
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXnHE1tZQjo)
Alcohol is taken in almost all cool and cold climates and much less
in hot ones. Thus, it is taken by those who live in the mountains but not
nearly so much by those who live in the plains of India. Alcohol is not
necessary in any way to anybody. Millions of people are beginning to do
without it entirely. In India, it is not required by the people at all and should
be avoided by them altogether. The regular use of alcohol, even in small
quantities, tends to cause harm in many ways to various body organs. It
affects the liver, weakens the mental powers, and lessens the body's
general energy.

III. Reading: Read this following text, then choose True (T) or False (F)
There are two seasons in
Indonesia: the dry season and the rainy
season. The dry season is from April to
September and the rainy season is from
October to March. Both seasons are hot.
However, the coastal regions are often
cool and in the mountains the air is often
chilly.
Two major winds called
monsoons make the rainy and dry
seasons. One monsoon blows toward
Indonesia from Asia. It crosses the South China Sea and brings heavy rain. From mid-June to
October another monsoon brings dry air from Australia.
Those two seasons have different effects on this country. Usually there are floods
during the rainy season. This is because thousands of hectares of forest are destroyed so that
they cannot absorb the rain. The rubbish accumulation in some rivers and dams also causes
floods because they cannot retain the falling water. Long dry season often causes drought in
thousands of hectares of rice fields across the country. They drought forces the farmers to find
ways to irrigate their rice fields to avoid crop failure.

IV. Grammar and Writing: Identify the comparative adjectives found in the text, by
putting tick (√) in the words that correspond. Then write a sentence that uses the
comparative adjective that you have found in the text.
Most of the country has a
hot climate. It’s colder and wetter
by the sea than in the middle of the
country, where it’s hotter and
drier. In the summer, the
temperature’s usually about 45°C
and sometimes it even reaches
54°C. The temperatures at night
are more comfortable than in the
day, and on summer evenings,
people go out onto their roofs to sleep.
The country’s more famous for its hot temperatures than cold weather, so you might
be surprised to know that sometimes it snows here. It doesn’t happen very often and only
during winter in the high parts of the country. Some people like snowboarding so much that
they do it on the sand, even in the summer.

beautiful Mansuar Island. There are many diving spots with the large range of colorful corals.
Filled with the peaceful atmosphere among the lush trees, the island is perfect for the most excited
adventurers or even for those looking for a piece of serenity. With its clear blue waters, the
underwater world of Raja Ampat is truly wonderful that the colorful corals can even be seen from
10 meters deep.
Translated as “Rising Sand”, Pasir Timbul is a small serene body of sand in the middle of
the sea and only appears when the sea water is reciding. This spot is one of the most favorite
highlight to take instagrammable pictures. Pasir Timbul is blessed with beautiful background of

Traditional Markets in Indonesia
For generations, Indonesians have bought their food at traditional markets, pasar. The
term pasar can refer to a gathering of tukang sayur (vendors who sell off carts which go
through residential areas), to a rough, temporary structure where sellers gather in the morning,
to the large market.
The items sold in pasar are basically the same – fruit, vegetables, meat and fish, spices,
dry goods and household items. Selection may vary slightly to better serve the needs of the
ethnic groups which live in the area. For example, if the pasar is located near an area where
there are many ethnic Indians, they may have more Indian spices or, there are a lot of
Minangkabau people living nearby, more Padang spices will be available.
Going to the pasar is a daily activity for Indonesian women or their household help.
Since refrigerators are too expensive for the poor and Indonesians like their vegetables and
meat fresh, this necessitates a trip to the pasar each day to buy ingredients for that day’s meals.
While shopping in supermarkets is popular amongst the middle and upper classes, supermarket
prices are generally too expensive for the poor.
Prices are not marked on items at traditional markets. Therefore, the fine art of
bargaining is taken to new levels as housewives and household help try to get the cheapest
prices possible. True shopping savvy means that you already know what the price should be
before you start shopping. Prices are compared and news is spread from friend to friend on
today’s prices for various items.
