The Incas used to be a large empire of 990.000 km² in Peru of South America.
Their city was high up in the Andes Mountains. They were well- known for their
great wealth, especially gold. This great empire was unfortunately destroyed in
an attack by the Spaniards who were searching for their famed gold. Although
this empire existed way back in 1493, it was not backward but complex and
well-organized.
The empire was ruled by the Sapa Inca, Lord of the World, Son of the Sun. He
owned everything in the empire - the land, soil, gold and even the people. The
people, therefore, had no freedom.
Boys and girls were to life of obedience and tradition. They began working in
their ayllu or family groups. The rule was Ama sua, ama llulla, ama sheklla,
which means, "Do not steal, do not lie, do not be lazy."
Despite this difficult way of live, the Incas were very skillful. They constructed
drainage system and underground water reservoirs. Their buildings were
made from huge stones. These were cut to flit perfectly together so that no
mortar was needed. Their rope bridges were so strong that even a horse could
gallop across them!
The Incas had no written language. Information was recorded on knotted

strings called quipus. These were also used as calculators. Strong and healthy
young boys were chosen as chasquis or couriers to carry messages from one
place to another.

Higher Education for Women
In this modern era, there are still some parents who are reluctant about
sending their daughters to college. The narrow attitude shown to women's
education is largely due to the traditional role of women in society. A woman is
expected to be a wife and a mother. Most parents believe that if their daughter
gets married and chooses to be a housewife, then the higher education will be
waste. However, an educated woman is not only a better wife but also

contributes something to the society.
Nowadays, more and more women are successfully combining their career
and marriage. Educated women are richer both emotionally and financially.
They are able to find an outlet for their monotonous drudgery of their
housekeeping. They bring more satisfaction and contentment to their lives.
Depriving girls of higher education is crash discrimination. Times have

changed; modern society needs the talents of its people regardless of gender.
Today, women work alongside men. In fact, in the last few decades, women
have made outstanding contributions to society.
Women should be given the freedom to be educated whether or not they get
married or go to work after finishing their education, because it is only through
education that a woman will find herself useful and discover that she wants in
life. A woman who works is not an insult to her husband. Conversely, her
husband should feel proud of her achievements since. marriage is actually an
equal partnership.
Therefore, parents should not think that girls should receive less education
just because they will get married one day.
24. What makes parents reluctant to send their daughters to college ....
A. They think education will be a waste

B. More women are successful in their career
C. It is a waste for women to go to college
D. Traditional roles of women in society do not need high education
E. They have to contribute something to the society
25. What is the main purpose of the text ....
A. To put forward a point of view or argument about higher education for women
B. To tell the parents in this modern era about how to educate their daughters
C. To persuade readers what should and should not do about education
D. To explain to readers about how to give education for their daughters
E. To describe the fact about how some parents educate their daughters
26. Modern society needs ....

A. Educated career women
B. Married women
C. Educated women
D. Good housewives and mothers
E. Talented people regardless gender
27. "In fact, in the last few decades, women have made outstanding contributions to
society." (Paragraph 3).
The synonym of the italic word is ....
A. Main
B. Major
C. Ordinary
D. Well known
E. Remarkable

There are a lot of discussions as to whether children should be given
homework or not.
Some people claim that children to 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 own without 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.

paragraph does not
D. The second paragraph and the fourth paragraph argue that students do not

Once upon a time there lived as neighbours, a bear and a rabbit. The rabbit
was a good short, and the bear, being very clumsy, could not use the arrow to
good advantage. The bear would call over the rabbit and asked the rabbit to
take his bow and arrows and came with the bear to the other side of the hill.
The rabbit, fearing to arouse the bear's anger by refusing, consented and went
with the bear and shot enough buffalo to satisfy the hungry family. Indeed, he
shot and killed so many that there was lots of meat left after the bear and his
family had loaded themselves, and packed all they could carry home. The bear
was very gluttonous and did not want the rabbit to get any of the meat, so the
poor rabbit could not even taste the blood from the butchering, as the bear
would throw earth on the blood and dry it up. Poor rabbit would have to go
home hungry after his hard day's work.
The bear was the father of five children. The youngest child was very kind to
the rabbit. The mother bear, knowing that her youngest child was very hearty
eater, always gave him an extra large piece of meat, but the youngest child
didn't eat. He would take it outside with him and pretend to play ball with it,
kicking it toward the rabbit's house, and when he got close to the door he
would give the meat with such a great kick, that it would fly into the rabbit's
house and in this way the poor rabbit would get his meal unknown to the papa
bear.

I usually woke up at 8 a.m. and went to the press center to check the daily
schedule of briefings and press conferences, usually held by the United
Nations officials or disaster mitigation team chief, Alwi Shihab.
It was challenging to visit different refugee camps to find soft stories, human
interest stories. Then, I went back to the press center in between to cover the
press conferences of the day.
It was heart breaking when I saw these survivors fight for food and
secondhand clothing, which they said were limited and inadequate. Emerging
to a glaring, full noon, it was time to go back to the press center to write
stories and race against time, always fearing that the internet connection
would come crashing down.
And after everything was done, only then I remembered to eat. Most times, I
only ate once a day because you always had to rush and it was difficult to find
