of the cohort. It also helps improving the memory. However, homework eats up the

26. Mobile phones seem to be everywhere now and the devices are now in the hands of
many kids and teenagers. However, are they really necessary at schools? While this
is great for those techno geeks, it does mean they offer far more of a distraction to
kids than they used to. Nowadays, children cannot only text and make calls with
their mobiles, they can also play game, surf the internet and listen to music. All these
could interfere with children’s concentration to learn if they play with them in class.
Also, many, even though they are asked to do so, forget to turn off their phones
during the lessons, meaning they may start to beep, or play music. This not only
frustates and annoys other pupils but also prevents them from learning.
Nonetheless, if the children are in immediatedanger, they can use their phones to
call not only you but the emergency services. This is of great benefit and could
potentially save your child’s life. In addition, it allows you to keep track of their
whereabouts.children, especially teenagers, can be elusive and can disappear with
their friends for hours without notifying anyone. Letting them have a mobile phone
will allow you to know where they are.

teaching experiencehas been incredible and I think I learned as much from the class
as the students did. There are some of many things I learned teaching an adult
education class at a teacher collage.
When I was first offered the opportunity to teach an adult education class on
teaching english with technology, I thought it would be a great experience. I knew it
would look good on my resume. I knew that i would probably learn a lot. However, I
did not realize how much fun it would be. I never had to drag myself to class or felt
like it was an appalling thing. Before I would start class, especially for the first few
times, I would get very nervous. But I began to really love it and before long my
anxiety about teaching went away.

English would be enough to equip me to teach English. As I started to teach in Nepal,
and later in India I slowly learnt many lessons myself. The most important lesson I
learnt was to be genuine and honest with the students.
Teaching is not simply about entertaining the students, but guiding them honestly
and directly through the maze of learning ahead of them. As an english teacher we
are imparting more than just knowledge, we also impart wisdom. As we stand in
front of a class day after day, the children witness our behaviours both good and
bad. The teacher has the task of showing them how to learn effectively, and so the
teacher must look to herself ( I use this to mean both genders) first and at the
methodsshe employs indeveloping and prsenting both the lessons and herself.

matters, the author felt...
a. Frank
b. Adequate
c. Unskilled
d. Organized
36. Since the 1970s, one theory that has been popular among schoolteachers and
pervasive in education research literature is the ideas of “learning styles”. The ideas
is that students will learn more if they are exposed to material throughapproaches
that specifically match their learning style. But in recent years, many academicians
have criticized Learning Style saying there is no evedence it improves students
understanding.
Now comes a newly published study of 114 academics in higher education in the
United Kingdom. Their findings are very interesting. It was found while 58% of the
academics surveyed believe Learning Styles to be beneficial—only 33% actually
used the pedagogical tool. Simply, there is something about the idea of
individualized education that appeals, but actually administering a Learning Styles
questionnaire to students and then tailoring the class curriculum to suit individual
students’personal learning styles is only done by a handful of faculty.

famous and established traditional colleges and universities are providing distance
learning courses and it is generally considered a way to improve one's life.
However, people still argue whether distance learning give more advantage or
disadvantage. Some of them who see the benefit of distance learning will say that
distance learning needs no commuting. Of course it saves money and time that
students would take. Furthermore, distance learning can be done at any student’s
convenience
Despite the many advantages, the other people will see that distance learning is costly
and needs complex technology. To attend online learning, student must have a
computer with possibly access to the internet. Admitted or not, such technology
devices are not always available for common students
Regarding the individual’s learning style, some students are able to learn when there is
a live interaction between them and the available of accompanying teacher while
others don’t really need it. So before deciding a choice of attending distance learning or
not, each student needs to do a fair analysis regarding the kind of person he/she is.

63. What is the benefit of tourism for local people? Well, Tourism is now a huge
contributor to the economies of most countries. Tourism industries can bring money,
job vacancy and advancement especially to developing regions. However, this money
often goes into the pockets of foreign investors, and only rarely benefits for local
people.
Tourism industries will not give much benefit for local people if, for example,
multinational hotel chains don’t care about the surrounding nature when they build
new hotels. This can cause many social, cultural and geographical problems. Some local
people may get job and money from that International hotel chain. However in case of
missing that opportunity, some of them still have their own environment.
Moreover, some facts show that tourists tend to go, visit and spend their money in
restaurants, bars and even luxury hotels of that multinational chains. They less go to
such places; restaurant, bar, hotel, shop which are owned by local people. This can
prevent the local people’s business from becoming even larger.
Most important thing, tours or excursions of tourism have little effect on nature. Even
it can disrupt or destroy ecosystems and environments, and if it does, the local people
will get the risk.
So the local government policies should be put in place to ensure that tourism will
make the benefit spreading widely. The policies should guarantee that tourism will not
cause any harm to any local people or places.
“tourism industries will not give much benefit for local people if,for example ,
multinational hotel chains don’t care about the surrounding nature ...”

64. Many people who are looking to get a pet dog get a puppy. There are many reasons
why people get puppies. After all, puppies are cute, friendly, and playful. But even
though puppies make good pets, there are good reasons why you should consider
getting an adult dog instead.
When you get a puppy, you have to teach it how to behave. You have to make sure that
the puppy is housebroken so that it does not go to the bathroom inside the house. You
have to teach the puppy not to jump up on your guests or chew on your shoes. You
have to train the puppy to walk on a leash. This is a lot of work.
On the other hand, when you get an adult dog, there is a good chance that it will
already know how to do all of the previously mentioned things. Many adult dogs have
already been housebroken. Many adult dogs will not jump on or chew things that you
do not want them to jump on or chew. Many adult dogs will be able to walk on a leash
without pulling you to the other side of the street.
Puppies also have a lot of energy and want to play all of the time. This can be fun, but
you might not want to play as much as your puppy does. Puppies will not always sleep
through the night or let you relax as you watch television.
On the other hand, most adult dogs will wait on you to play. What is more, they will
sleep when you are sleeping and are happy to watch television on the couch right
beside you.
There is one last reason why you should get an adult dog instead of a puppy. When
most people go to the pound to get a dog, they get a puppy. This means that many adult
dogs spend a lot of time in the pound, and some never find good homes. So if you are
looking to get a dog for a pet, you should think about getting an adult dog. They are
good pets who need good homes.
The author apparently thinks that puppies are..
a. Not as cute as adult dogs
b. Not as playful as adult dogs

65. corruption is common everywhere in the world, even in the United States. It’s just a
matter of intensity. However, it is quite shocking when one reliable survey claims
Jakarta as the most corrupt place in Indonesia
The survey has made me sad, actually, because I stay and earn a living here in the
capital. As most people know, Tanjung Priok port smuggling is not a new thing at all.
Entrepreneurs who want to minimize their tax payments tend to do such a thing more
often. They even bribe the officials
Well, I think the measures taken so far to overcome the problem by punishing the
corruptors is still not far enough. We have to prevent the younger generations from
getting a bad mentality caused by corruption.
I believe we should start at the earliest stages in school and I think everyone should be
involved in the effort to eradicate corruption. We must not make any distinction.
“They even bribe the officials”. What is the antonym of the word “bribe”?
a. Induce
b. Corrupt
c. Persuade
d. Restore
e. Harm
