Every time I remember this, I always laugh. My best friend, Andi, had an embarrassing experience.
One day, my friends and I were playing hide and seek on the playground. We played happily. Until, it was Andi’s turn to look for us. He was looking for us one
by one. He had got Budi and Tono first. Then he captured Iwan and me. He still kept looking for Hadi, the last person. He was very clever in hiding. Andi could
not find him. He remembered that Hadi was wearing a red shirt and blue pants. As he passed the elephant statue in the park, he saw a kid wearing a red shirt and blue
pants. Without thinking, he immediately approached him. After getting close, he pulled him and took him to us. He wanted to tell us that he had managed to find
Hadi. However, he became silent, when he saw Hadi was near me. Hadi greeted him, “Hey why did not you find me?” He was confused. Then he saw us laugh.
Then he looked to the child who he dragged from near the elephant statue. He was surprised that it was not Hadi but he was someone else wearing the same clothes.
The boy looked at Andi with disgust. We were laughing at him. He was very embarrassed. His face blushed. Finally, he apologized to the boy which he had
been pulled. Since then we always called him as Mr. Clumsy.

The following text is for questions number 41 to 43.
Mosquitoes are members of a family
of nematocerid
flies . Most species of
mosquitoes are harmless. However, several species carry and transmit diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, and dengue fever to human and other animals.
The mosquito’s body consists of head, thorax, and abdomen. The round head has a long proboscis which it uses to suck the blood from the human or animal. Like flies,
mosquito’s feet are equipped with claws for attaching to host’s skin . Mosquitoes go through four stages in their lifecycles. They include
egg ,
larva ,
pupa , and adult phases. These stages usually last 5 to 14 days, depending on the
species and temperature. Eggs hatch to become larvae
, which grow until they are able to change into
pupae . The adult mosquito emerges from the mature pupa as it floats at
the water surface. Although some mosquitoes feed on blood, most of them eat nectar. The males do
not drink blood from animals or humans. Beside feeding on nectar, the females have
to drink blood to get protein from it. It is used to make eggs mature. They can’t form this vital component on their own, so blood is used. Some mosquitoes don’t require
blood to lay eggs. They prey on the larvae of other mosquitoes.
