Rabbits are small mammals in the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, found in several
parts of the world. There are eight different genera in the family classified as rabbits, including
the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus), cottontail rabbits (genus Sylvilagus; 13 species),
and the Amami rabbit (Pentalagus furnessi, an endangered species on Amami Oshima, Japan).
There are many other species of rabbit, and these, along with pikas and hares, make up the
order Lagomorpha. The male is called a buck and the female is a doe; a young rabbit is a kitten
or kit.
Rabbit habitats include meadows, woods, forests, grasslands, deserts and wetlands. Rabbits live
in groups, and the best known species, the European rabbit, lives in underground burrows, or
rabbits holes. A group of burrows is called warren.
More than half the world’s rabbits population resides in North America. They are also native to
southwestern Europe, Southeast Asia, Sumatra, some islands of Japan, and in parts of Africa
and South America. They are not naturally found in most Eurasia, where a number of species of
hares are present. Rabbits first entered South America relatively recently, as part of the Great
American Interchange. Much of the continent has just one species of rabbit, the tapeti, while
most of South America’s southern cone is without rabbits.

Primary pulmonary hypertension (PPH) is a rare disease of unknown cause that results in
the progressive narrowing of the blood vessels of the lungs, causing high blood pressure in these
blood vessels and eventually leading to heart failure. It is more common in women between the
ages of 21 and 40; however, it can affect anyone at any age.
Initial symptoms of PPH may be very minor, and diagnosis may be delayed for several years
until symptoms worsen. Typical symptoms may include shortness of breath following exertion,
excessive fatigue, dizziness, fainting, weakness, ankle swelling, bluish lips and skin, as well as
chest pain.  It is difficult to detect PPH in medical examination.
No one knows what causes PPH; however, research into the cause suggests a number of
factors that may be responsible for the disease. Possible causes include genetic or familial
predisposition, immune system disease, or drugs or other chemical exposures.
Primary pulmonary hypertension is treated with a number of drugs. None of the drugs that
can cure or halt the progression of this disease has been found yet, but they may relieve
symptoms. Some patients take vasodilators, which help to dilate the blood vessels in the lungs,
reducing the blood pressure in them. In addition, anticoagulants may be used to decrease the
tendency of the blood to clot in the lungs. Doctors can choose from a variety of drugs that help
lower blood pressure in the lungs and improve heart performance in many patients and
medication that may take a long period of time. Patients with PPH respond differently to the
different medications that relax blood vessels and that no one drug is consistently effective in all
patients.
Most doctors and patients agree that it is very important for both patients and families to be
as informed as possible. This lets everyone understand the illness and apply the information to
what is happening. In addition to family and close friends, support groups can help PPH patients
and give some valuable experience sharing among sufferers.

Diponegoro War (1825 to 1830) was one of the greatest battles ever experienced by the
Dutch. The war led by efforts to control the economy as well as the kingdoms. At that time the
Dutch government was in economic trouble. The Dutch maximized profits by imposing various
taxes, a monopoly business and trade. To further strengthen the power and economy, the Dutch
tried to control the kingdoms. Prince Diponegoro, the eldest son of the royal family of
Yogyakarta, was already fed up with the behavior of the Dutch who did not respect the local
customs and exploited the people with taxation.
The immediate cause of Diponegoro’s rebellion was the Dutch’s decision to build a road
across a piece of his property that contained a sacred tomb. At first, the Dutch planned the
construction of the road from Yogyakarta to Magelang. Then the Dutch changed his plans and
rerouted it past Tegalrejo. Apparently in one sector, it was across the graves of the ancestors of
Prince Diponegoro. This makes Prince Diponegoro offended and decided to take up arms
against the Dutch. He then ordered his men to pull out stakes through the tomb.
Diponegoro’s forces made use of their local knowledge to achieve early victories. Villagers
were ordered to cut down trees to block roads as well as burn down the wooden bridges and dig
up road surfaces. Often roads were covered with sharpened bamboo stakes. Javanese military
planning was also very sophisticated. Diponegoro used ferry boats to supply his forces. His
contacts in the underworld also meant that he was helped by bandits communities who controlled
the key river crossing points. The Javanese forces were also able to use modern weapons. They
had firearms and used cannons they had taken from the Dutch. Crucially, they were able to fight
the war on their terms. They fought against the Dutch in a guerrilla war strategy  which allowed
them to fight the war they way they wanted.
The Dutch appointed a skilled and adaptable commander, De Kock. One of his strategy
was benteng strategy. He could successfully isolated Diponegoro’s forces and deprived him of
the local support he needed to keep fighting.  The Dutch were also very clever in offering
amnesties and rewards to those of Diponegoro’s supporters who surrendered to them. This
encouraged many to stop fighting for Diponegoro. Interestingly, the Dutch also offered a large
reward for Diponegoro either dead or alive. However, the personal loyalty felt towards
Diponegoro and no-one betrayed him.
By 1830, after months in hiding, and on the run, Diponegoro agreed to peace talks with the
Dutch. However, after some negotiations he was arrested and soon exiled out of Java. The
Dutch administration made sure that he was never allowed to return to Java.  He died in exile at
Makassar.
21. What motive was the Dutch’s change of plans and reroute of the road through
Tegalrejo?
A. They got angry with people of Tegalrejo for sabotaging public facilities
B. They started to control people of Tegalrejo which consisted of bandits
C. They tried to impose various taxes, monopoly business and trade there
D. They triggerred a rebellion to get reasons to arrest Prince Diponegoro
E. They found it out the shortest cut to Magelang from Yogyakarta

22. To win the war, Prince Diponegoro should have ….

a. trained the troops to use both traditional and modern weapons
b. avoided combats and learnt a coopertive strategy
c. kept on guerrilla  war and never come to any negotiation
d. attacked the Dutch troops face to face and run away

Dear Leonard:

I (would like to express my sincere condolences on) was shocked with the recent passing of your
father. Pamela and the children also send their thoughts and prayers to you and your family at
this difficult time.
Although I didn’t know your dad that well, on the half dozen or so occasions that I spent time in
his company over the years, I did come to realize his great kindness and compassion towards
those less fortunate than him. And I do know that he was very highly respected throughout this
community and profession, and his good works changed the lives of many.
You were truly fortunate to have such a man as a model in your life.
As you know, it was not that long ago that my own father passed away, so I have some idea of
what you and your family are going through. I realize that no words of comfort are quite enough
to replace the loss.
Please pass my deepest sympathies on to your mother, and brother, and sister, and to all of your
father’s grandchildren.

Yours in sympathy,
Gord Henderson
