WHY THE SKY IS HIGH
A long time ago, the sky was close to the earth. When you stood up and stretched your arms, you could touch it. One day, a farmer brought some coconuts for his wife. His wife wanted to drink the juice inside. She knocked on of the coconuts against a rock to break open the shell.
“That’s not the way to do it, “her husband said. “You should cut it open with a knife.” He gave her his bolo or jungle-knife.
His wife raised the knife to cut the coconut shell. “crack!”. As she lifted the knife about her head, it split open the sky and there was heavy rain.
The woman told the sky, “Will you please go a little higher? I can’t raise my knife high enough to cut this coconut shell.” She raised the knife over her shoulder the second time. Once again, it hit the sky and there was thunder and lightening “You are still too low,” the woman said to the sky.
“Please go higher.” She raised the bolo a third time. It still cracked the sky. There was a typhoon, and the woman’s house was almost blown away by the fierce wind.
“What are you doing?” cried her husband, “Can’t you even try to open a coconut shell without causing a typhoon?”
“It’s not me,” his wife answered. “It’s the sky which is too low”. I need more room to use the knife.”
(2)
Finally, the woman became very angry. She looked up and shouted at sky. “You’d better do as I told. Otherwise I shall cut you to pieces.” The clouds rose and rose and the sky went up higher and higher. That’s why it is now so high.

Questions 11 –17 are based on the following text.
Making an Omelet
This is the way an omelet should be made. It is important that the frying-pan should be proportionate to the number of eggs; in other words, to the size of the omelet. The frying-pan must be made of iron, not of aluminum, tin or enamel. And here I feel I must stress a point essential to what might be called the background of omelet-making, namely that the frying-pan must never be washed with water but rubbed, when hot, with salt and tissue-paper, as this is the only way to prevent sticking.
For three portions, we take six eggs, break them into a bowl, season them with salt and freshly ground pepper, and add a good teaspoonful of water. We beat this lightly with a fork or the wire-broom, not the whisk, until large bubbles form on the top. This takes half a minute; it is fatal to beat too long. Meanwhile, our frying-pan is getting hot, not too hot, and we drop in an ounce and a half of butter, or butter and best lard, over a quick flame for a minute or two, until it gives no more froth and has turned light golden. We give our egg-mixture another stir and pour it into the fan, letting it spread evenly over the frying–pan.
All this is a swift business, and we may well feel a few extra heartbeats and a little breathlessness at that moment. The flame is now turned down a little. With a fork or palette-knife (a fork seems to work particularly well) we loosen the edges of the
(3)
omelet all round and, once or twice, in the middle, letting the liquid flow into the empty spaces, taking care always to move towards the middle.
This takes about two minutes. Then, keeping as calm as we possibly can, we fold it. This is easy if we fold over and pin down with two or three fork-pricks about an inch and-a-half of the omelet along one side. Then, it is quite easy to roll it into shape. Our omelet should be golden brown outside and wet inside: baveuse, as the classical French term says. It is then slid on to a hot plate and its surface made shiny with a little butter. This last touch makes all the difference.

The Football Match
My brother and I went to a football match yesterday. Our school team was playing against another high-school team. Our team wore red and white shirts, white shorts, and red stockings. The other team wore orange and black shirts, orange shorts, and black stockings. “They look like bees“, my brother said, and we laughed.
They played like bees too. They ran very fast, attacked very hard, and passed the ball to each other very fast. Soon they scored their first goal. My brother and I shouted and shouted, “Come on, Valley School! Come on,
(4)
the Valleys!” Our headmaster was near us and he was shouting too. He seemed very enthusiastic. However, the high school scored another goal. We were very sad.
Then, one of the “bees” stopped the ball with one of his hands, so our team got the free kick. Our captain took it and scored a goal. We shouted, “Hooray!” The score was now 2:1. That was better.
Now our team began to play better—or the “bees” were getting tired. Our team scored another goal before half-time. In the second half of the match, both teams tried very hard, but neither scored, so at the end the score was still two all.

Questions 27 – 36 are based on the following text.
Queen AjiBidaraPutih
Muara Kaman lies along the Mahakam River, in eastern Borneo. In the past the area was a kingdom ruled by Queen AjiBidaraPutih. She was a typical queen of myths: beautiful, wise, and sensitive. Many princes and kings proposed to her but she always refused them because she was more concerned with ruling her country and guarding her people.
One day, a Chinese boat came to eastern Borneo. First, the people thought it was a merchant ship but the boat was loaded with trade goods and highly trained soldiers. Their envoys brought gold and porcelain to announce the marriage proposal from a prince of China. The queen didn’t refuse instantly and replied that she had to ponder the proposal first. After the envoys left the palace, the queen called a court officer and ordered him to infiltrate the Chinese boat to gather information on the prince.
When night fell the officer sneaked onto the boat, got by all the guards, and finally found the prince’s room. The large door would not open and he couldn’t find a peek hole, so the officer put his ear to the wall, trying to catch sounds from inside. He heard that the prince was having his dinner and the noise of his chewing and slurping surprised the officer. It was like a boar that he had once heard when he was hunting.
He quickly left the boat and returned to the palace. He reported that the prince must have been a phantom, not a human. He believed that the phantom could be in a human’s form only during the daytime. The queen was so surprised and got angry. On the next day, she refused his proposal.
The enraged prince ordered his troops to raid Muara Kaman. The battle was won by the prince’s huge band of troops. As they drew near to the palace, Queen AjiBidaraPutih
(6)
chewed a leaf of betel vine and sang a mantra while holding it. When she threw it at the Chinese troops, it turned to giant centipedes. The Chinese troops started to retreat but three centipedes chased them and sank the boat. The site of the sunken ship is now known as Danau Lipan (Lake of Centipedes), with Chinese treasures hidden on the lake’s bed.
