Computers are machines that handle information automatically. They can perform
calculations and process data. Computers can work with number to solve great deal of
information and make practically no mistakes. That is why computers are widely used in
place such as banks, office and companies.
Computer work like calculators. However, most calculators can do only one thing at a
time. We tell them to do by pressing various buttons. To do some work, we can give a series
of instruction to a computer. We call this a computer program. If we set up a program, the
computer can provide other information. Once we provide a program, the computer can do all
this work automatically without further help or instruction.
A computer stores and handles numbers. The numbers may be mathematical formulas
or column of figures. The numbers may also be codes that stand for letters of the alphabet, or
words or instructions to the computer.
All computers have three basic parts:
• Input and output unit (I/O). The input unit the information and instruction and the
output unit gives the results.
• A central processing unit (CPU). This unit does the work of computing.
• A memory. It stories or remembers information and instruction that the CPU
needs to the work.
The I/O makes it possible for people to communicative with computers. There are
several kinds of I/O. One of them is video terminal. The video terminal has a typewriter
– like keyboard and screen like television screen. We can see the output of the
computer on the screen.

10. A computer stores and handles number ( paragraph 3) the underlined word has the
same meaning with…
a. Processes.
b. Keeps.performs.
c. Tells.
d. Gives

In Australia there are there leve’s of govermment, the federal government, state
governments and local govermments. All of these levels of govermments are necessary. This is so
for a number of reasons.
First, the federal govermments is necessary for the big things. They keep the economy in
order and look after things like defense.
Similary, the state govermements look after middle-sized things. For example, they look
after law and order. Preventing things like vandalism in schools.
Finally, local govermments look after the small things. They look after thing like collecting
rubbish otherwise everyone would have disease.
Thus, for the reason above we can conclude that three lavels of govermment are necessary.

exercises the whole body. First, facial muscies, for example, can be made firmer by daily
performance of “ the lion “, a posture that imitates the face of roaring lion. Next, back musclces can
become more flexible by regular practice of “ the cobra”, a posture that imitates the arching head of
that poisonous snake. And “ the crow”, which resembles the headstand, is said to improve
circulation and relieve tension.in short, harta yoga has good chance of making someone get good

4. have you ever had any problem with the hand phone you bought ?
…………………………
When we want to buy a hand phone, we have to think the advantages as well as the
disadvantages. Doing so, we will be able to make a wise decision.
If we decide to buy a hand phone, we can start by asking ourselves the importance of the
equipment. We may ask, “ do we want it for out prestige or for its usefulness?’
After we decide to use a hand phone, we should make achoice on the type of hande phone.
With the various types in the market, we should decide the one that meets our need. We must know
what we need.
26
As the consequences of its high operation cost, we have to pay more for a hand phone
compared to a fixed telephone. That’s why we have to thinkcarefully before we decide to use
it.therefore, we only use hand phone for important talks. It will not be wise if we use it for a chat
with a friend.
With all the consequences of the hand phone, we should give serious consideration before
using it they are :
1. ask yourself,”Do you really need it at this moment ?”
2. Buy the hand phone that suits your budget.
3. prioritize the function of the hand phone for you, rather that its features that may
interest you.
4. use the mobile phone for important talks.

III. JOINT CONSTRUCTION OF THE TEXT (JOINT)
It seems that in this era of reform, everybodyis free to do what they want and what they
like. Individuals and groups can hold demonstration at will. One can freely lodge a protest,slander
one another, or force someone into a corner, including the president, vice president, and
ministers. They seem to ignore the values of the pancasila state philosophy, one principle of
which is respect for humanity.
The demonstration have not not only been held by university students, but, unfortunately,
by the elite political members who sit in the house of representativesand people’s Consultative
assembly. They also tend to resort to demonstrations.
In effort to find solutions to a number of national calamities and issue – such as
earthquakes, fires, and floods – elite groups should not rush to putthe other side, even on the
president and vice president, but they should make a concerted effort to shoulder the
responsibility.
Concerning the frequent visits to foreign countries made by the president, we should view
them as working visits with the important purpose of telling the world that Indonesia is stilla
sovereign country, supported by the people and with a legitimate government. In fact, the visits
have resulted in the return of confidence of many foreign countries, which are ready to extend
relief aid to disaster-stricken areas.
On our part, I would like to suggest that it would be much more dignified for the legislators
to raise funds through legitimate means and from whatever sources, or to contribute a fraction of
their salaries ( say rp 1 million each ), and send the money to bengkulu to alleviate the suffering
of the earthquake.
Please stop making people confused by critizing the performance of the president and vice
president, blaming them for being incapable national leaders.
We are still concerned about the current security and order that need sorting out. This might
have resulted from too many negative comments made by the political elite, which makes the
people wonder what is really happening in this country.
Realizing the fact above, we, as good citizens, should think how to resurrect from some
difficulties the country has, rather than to citizen and to blame others. Let’s think what we should
present for our beloved coutry not what we should gain from the country.

Passive smokers
Cigarette smokers are said to have agood chance of getting various fatal diseases. But, I
think that other people’s tobacco smoke seems to increase the chances of non-smokers getting a
wide range of cancers.
First, although passive smokers inhale less tobacco smoke, the researches point out that the
smoke they breathe in is richer in many toxic chemicals. There is, for example, there times as much
as benzo-apyrene, six times as much toluene and more than 50 times as much dimethylnitrosamine.
Of course these substance will harm our body in the long run.
Secondly, the recent research repored that the risk of getting cancers not normally
associated with smoking also rose among passive smokers. The risk of leukemia rose 6 – 8 times
and the risk of cervical cancer increased 3 – 4 times.
Thirdly, past studies have found that by product of cigarette smoke such as coinine and
thiocyanate, turn up in the blood, urine and saliva of non-smoking adults,chidren and fetuses that
have been exposed to smokers. These substances are the main causes of various cancers.
In short, the effects of exposure to the cigarette smoking of others are greater than has been
previously suspected. That’s why some cigarette smokers should not smoke at public places.further
more, the government had better designate certain places as restricted smoking areas. Hopefully
common people can breathe fresh air without smoking disturbance.
