Mira,
Due to the students camp I have to join, there are some cases I want to tell
you. I left when you were getting lecturer. This morning I bought a raincoat for the
sake of this activity. Unfortunately when I was about to pay, I realized that my
wallet was left. The shop owner was so kind that he allowed me to bring the rain coat
and to pay later. I did not have much time because I had to leave for the camp on
time. So, help me please give the money I put in the envelope on the table to Laris
Manis shop owner. Thank

Japan Quake Causes Emergencies at 5 Nuke Reactors


Associated Press, Tokyo | Sat, 03/12/2011 8:56 AM | Headlines
Japan declared states of emergency for five nuclear reactors at two power plants after the units lost cooling
ability in the aftermath of Friday's powerful earthquake. Thousands of residents were evacuated as workers struggled
to get the reactors under control to prevent meltdowns.
Operators at the Fukushima Daiichi plant's Unit 1 scrambled ferociously to tamp down heat and pressure
inside the reactor after the 8.9 magnitude quake and the tsunami that followed cut off electricity to the site and
disabled emergency generators, knocking out the main cooling system.
Some 3,000 people within two miles (three kilometers) of the plant were urged to leave their homes, but the
evacuation zone was more than tripled to 6.2 miles (10 kilomeers) after authorities detected eight times the normal
radiation levels outside the facility and 1,000 times normal inside Unit 1's control room.
The government declared a state of emergency at the Daiichi unit - the first at a nuclear plant in Japan's
history. But hours later, the Tokyo Electric Power Co. which operates the six-reactor Daiichi site in northeastern
Japan, announced that it had lost cooling ability at a second reactor there and three units at its nearby Fukushima
Daiichi site.
The government quickly declared states of emergency for those units, too. Nearly 14,000 people living near
the two power plants were ordered to evacuate.
Japan's nuclear safety agency said the situation was most dire at Fukushima Daiichi's Unit 1, where pressure
had risen to twice what is consider the normal level. The International Atomic Energy Agency said in a statement that
diesel generators that normally would have kept cooling systems running at Fukushima Daiichi had been disabled by
tsunami flooding.

Facsimile, often called fax, is a way of transmitting texts and pictures over telephone lines. News services
often use facsimile to send news, stories, and photographs to newspaper and television stations. Banks, law
firms, and other businesses use facsimile to send copies of documents to clients and other organizations.
A device called a facsimile machine is used for transmitting and receiving images. Facsimile machines
resemble small photocopiers. However, they are equipped with a telephone or are connected to one. To send
a document, the user inserts it into the machine and dials the telephone number of the receiving fax machine.
After the connection is made, an electronic scanner on the transmitting machine moves across the page and
converts the image into a set of electric signals. These signals travel over the telephone line to the receiving
fax machine. That machine converts the electric signals back into an image of the original document and then
prints a copy.
Some business people use small desktop fax machines or portable models at home or when they travel. A
personal computer can also be used to send and receive documents if it is equipped with a special electronic
circuit board called a fax board.

Cigarette smokers are said to have a good chance of getting various fatal diseases. But, I think that other
peoples 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 researchers point out that the smoke they
breathe in is richer in many toxic chemicals. There is, for example, three times as much as benzo-apyrene,
six times as much as toluene and more than 50 times as much as dimethyllnitrosamine. of course these
substance will harm our body in the long run.
Secondly, the recent research indicated 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 the products of cigarette smoke such as nicotine and thiocyanate, turn
up in the blood, urine and saliva of non smoking adults, children 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 is why passive smokers have more chances of contracting cancer than people with no such
exposure.

There are a lot of discussions as to whether children should be given homework or not.
Some people claim that children do enough work in school already. They are also argue that children have
hobbies that they want to do after school, such as sport or music. A further point they make is that a lot of
homework is pointless and doesnt help children 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 own without the support from the teacher. They
say that the evening is 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

This text is for questions 47 to 50
2012 is Roland Emmerich's film which uses the Mayan calendar and other end-of-days prophecies
for their doomsday scenario. It imagines the world coming to an end in 2012.
2012 film brings off a series of wonders. The movie hits its peak early on. It starts when Cusack
drives a limo through the streets of Los Angeles as freeways and skyscrapers crumble all around him from
the shock of a 10.5 earthquake. The preposterous flying sequence is equally thrilling. The climax occurs
aboard the giant ark, when an equipment malfunction almost threatens the entire mission.
Unfortunately, the crucial sequence is not filmed or edited with the requisite clarity. In 2012 film,
Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to exactly what is happening to whom. However, Emmerich' 2012
deserves credit for, offbeat casting. Cusack supplies his trademark hangdog charm. McCarthy has perhaps
his best role ever as Peel's cocky. Danny Glover lends dignity to the role of the tormented president.
Chiwetel Ejiofor, as the chief scientist, brings a moving sense of anguish to a stock role. Platt has fun
playing the villain of the piece, and Woody Harrelson also chews the scenery as a bug-eyed radio prophet
trying to warn his listeners about Armageddon.
All in one, 2012's cinematography, production design and visual effects are awards-worthy. Music
also propels the movie. It presents American Idol runner-up, Adam Lambert, who provides a rousing
anthem over the end credits.
47. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. The synopsis of film "2012"
B. The description about earthquake.
C. Explain about the contain of film "2012"
D. Retelling the story of natural disaster film
E. The description about disasters in the world
48. Who is Adam Lambert?
A. Singer of film soundtrack
B. Director of the film
C. Actress
D. Producer
E. Writer
49. Which statement is true based on the text?
A. The film shows earthquake
B. The film shows about the doomsday
C. Mayan calendar which predicts the
D. The crucial sequences edited in requisite clarity
E. The film tells about prophecies' of natural disasters
50. "In 2012 film, Emmerich leaves us befuddled as to exactly what is happening to whom". What is
the synonym of the underlined word?
A. Retold
B. Returned
C. Confused
D. Reminded
E. Turned around
