Well, I spent my holiday in Jakarta last month. I went there with my family by plane to

resorts in Jakarta. One of them was the National Monument, the icon of Jakarta. It is
located in Central Jakarta. I could see the scenery of Jakarta city from the observation deck,

Housing in Japan includes modern and traditional styles. Two patterns of
residences are predominant in contemporary Japan: the single-family
detached house and the multiple-unit building, either owned by an individual or
corporation and rented as apartments to tenants, or owned by occupants. Additional
kinds of housing, especially for unmarried people, include boarding houses (which
are popular among college students), dormitories (common in companies), and
barracks (for members of the Self-Defense Forces, police and some other public
employees).
An unusual feature of Japanese housing is that houses are presumed to have a
limited lifespan, and are generally torn down and rebuilt after a few decades,
generally twenty years for wooden buildings and thirty years for concrete buildings.
According to a housing survey carried out in 1993, single-family homes
accounted for 59.2% of all housing in Japan. In 1997, it was estimated that about
60% of Japanese lived in detached houses. In 1998, 52% of all dwellings
in Japan were found to consist of detached houses owned by their residents, 36%
were rented dwellings in apartment complexes, 8% were owned dwellings in
apartments complexes, and 4% were rented detached houses. In 2008, it was
estimated that six out of ten Japanese lived in single-family houses.

The following text is for questions number 34 to 37.
In the early 16th century the Portuguese arrived in Indonesia. At that time there
was a huge demand in Europe for spices such as nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and
mace. Huge profits could be made by transporting them to Europe and selling them.
The Portuguese therefore decided to seize the Moluccas, the chief source of spices. In
1511 they captured Melaka, an important port. They also captured the Moluccas.
However in the early 17th century the Portuguese lost their position to the
Dutch. The first Dutch fleet sailed from Holland in 1595 under Cornelis de Houtman. In
1602 the Dutch East India Company was formed to control trade with Indonesia. In
1605 they took Tidore and Ambon from the Dutch. In 1619 the company captured
Batavia. In 1641 they took Melaka. During the 17th century the Dutch gradually
extended their power of Java and the Moluccas. However they had little influence in the
rest of Indonesia.
Moreover during the 18th century the Dutch East India Company slipped into
debt. Finally in 1799 the Dutch government took over its territories.
34. When did the Portuguese take Moluccas?
A. In 1511.

C. The Dutch took over the position from the Portuguese.
D. The Dutch extended their power of Java and Moluccas.

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.

A. making protein

Once upon a time, there was a young man called Ma Liang. He was poor but liked to
help people. He liked drawing pictures everywhere.
One night, he dreamt that an old man gave him a magic paintbrush and asked him to
use it to help poor people. When he woke up, he found the magic paintbrush on his desk.
From that day on, he used the paintbrush whenever people needed help. When he saw that
people had no water to use in the fields, he drew a river and the river came to life. People
could bring water from the river to the field and save a lot of time and energy.
But a few days later, a rich man heard about it. He wanted to own the paintbrush. He
knew that he could make a lot of money by turning things to life and keeping them, so he
sent some people to the Ma Liang's home and took him to the prison. He got the magic
paintbrush and felt very happy.
Then he invited a lot of his friends to come to his home and showed them the magic
paintbrush. He drew a lot of pictures, but they could not become real. He was very angry
and asked some people to get Ma Liang.
When Ma Liang came, he said to him, "If you draw some pictures for me and turn
them to life, I will set you free." The young man knew that he was a bad man in the
village. Of course he did not want to help him. He had an idea. He drew a golden
mountain which was far away from the sea and a big ship.
Then the bad man jumped into the ship first and a lot of his family and friends jumped

Dear Sherly
How are you? It has been a long time since we met. I hope you are all right.
Well, I spent my holiday in Jakarta last month. I went there with my family by plane to
visit my grandparents. As I missed them so much,I felt so excited when I met them. We
stayed in Jakarta for five days.
We spent most of the time gathering and sharing many things. We also visited a few tourist
resorts in Jakarta. One of them was the National Monument, the icon of Jakarta. It is
located in Central Jakarta. I could see the scenery of Jakarta city from the observation deck,
located at the top of the monument. I also enriched my knowledge about Indonesian
history, by observing the dioramas.
I had a wonderful time in Jakarta. That’s all. I look forward to your reply soon.
Regards,

Housing in Japan includes modern and traditional styles. Two patterns of
residences are predominant in contemporary Japan: the single-family
detached house and the multiple-unit building, either owned by an individual or
corporation and rented as apartments to tenants, or owned by occupants. Additional
kinds of housing, especially for unmarried people, include boarding houses (which
are popular among college students), dormitories (common in companies), and
barracks (for members of the Self-Defense Forces, police and some other public
employees).
An unusual feature of Japanese housing is that houses are presumed to have a
limited lifespan, and are generally torn down and rebuilt after a few decades,
generally twenty years for wooden buildings and thirty years for concrete buildings.
According to a housing survey carried out in 1993, single-family homes
accounted for 59.2% of all housing in Japan. In 1997, it was estimated that about
60% of Japanese lived in detached houses. In 1998, 52% of all dwellings
in Japan were found to consist of detached houses owned by their residents, 36%
were rented dwellings in apartment complexes, 8% were owned dwellings in
apartments complexes, and 4% were rented detached houses. In 2008, it was
estimated that six out of ten Japanese lived in single-family houses.

The following text is for questions number 34 to 37.
In the early 16th century the Portuguese arrived in Indonesia. At that time there
was a huge demand in Europe for spices such as nutmeg, ginger, cinnamon, cloves and
mace. Huge profits could be made by transporting them to Europe and selling them.
The Portuguese therefore decided to seize the Moluccas, the chief source of spices. In
1511 they captured Melaka, an important port. They also captured the Moluccas.
However in the early 17th century the Portuguese lost their position to the
Dutch. The first Dutch fleet sailed from Holland in 1595 under Cornelis de Houtman. In
1602 the Dutch East India Company was formed to control trade with Indonesia. In
1605 they took Tidore and Ambon from the Dutch. In 1619 the company captured
Batavia. In 1641 they took Melaka. During the 17th century the Dutch gradually
extended their power of Java and the Moluccas. However they had little influence in the
rest of Indonesia.
Moreover during the 18th century the Dutch East India Company slipped into
debt. Finally in 1799 the Dutch government took over its territories.

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.

use it to help poor people. When he woke up, he found the magic paintbrush on his desk.
From that day on, he used the paintbrush whenever people needed help. When he saw that

could bring water from the river to the field and save a lot of time and energy.
But a few days later, a rich man heard about it. He wanted to own the paintbrush. He
knew that he could make a lot of money by turning things to life and keeping them, so he

paintbrush and felt very happy.

them to life, I will set you free." The young man knew that he was a bad man in the
