BAHASA INGGRIS

Text I Third World countries often mistakenly decide to permit rapid industrialization. When this industrialization occurs, many new factories open, and workers get jobs. Unfortunately, many of these new jobs are not permanent. The leaders of an industry want their factories to be as productive as possible, and they will do anything to achieve that goal. Whenever they can, they take advantage of automation, which means that workers are replaced by a more efficient machine.

Text II In studying the phenomenon usually referred to as sleep, we are actually dealing with more than one phenomenon. In point of fact, we spend the night alternating between two different types of sleep, each with different brain mechanism and different purposes. As a person falls asleep, his brain waves develop a slower and less regular pattern than in a waking state. This is called orthodox sleep. In this state the brain is apparently resting. Its blood supply is reduced, and its temperature falls slightly. Breathing and heart rate are regular. The muscles remain slightly tensed. After about an hour in this state, however, the brain waves begin to show a more active pattern again, even though the person is apparently asleep very deeply. This is called paradoxical sleep because it has much in common with being awake. Paradoxical (active) sleep is marked by irregular breathing and heart rate, increased blood supply to the brain, and increased brain temperature. Most of the muscles are relaxed. There are various jerky movements of the body and face, including short burst of rapid eye movement, which indicate that we are dreaming. Thus, we spend the night alternating between these two vital ‘restoration jobs’: working on the brain and working on the body.

43. The two different types of sleep are characterized by different .... (A) lengths of sleep (B) degrees of soundness (C) sleep movements (D) brain wave pattern (E) eye movements

45. The second stage of sleep is called paradoxical sleep because .... (A) it comes after the orthodox phase of sleeping (B) we sleep but our muscles are tense (C) it is totally different from orthodox sleep (D) we only dream during this phase of sleeping (E) the brain is active during this phase of sleeping

46. Orthodox sleep is characterized by all of the following, EXCEPT .... (A) regular heart rate and breathing (B) lower brain temperature (C) jerky body movements (D) reduced supply of oxygen to the brain (E) slightly tensed muscles

47. From the text we may conclude that while we are sleeping .... (A) our brain is restoring our physical and mental condition (B) we can really be as active as when we are awake (C) the tensed muscles are caused by the changing phase of sleeps (D) orthodox sleep is more important than paradoxical sleep (E) irregular heart rate while sleeping is due to bad dreams

Text III Rainforests circle the globe for twenty degrees of latitude on both sides of the equator. In that (48) narrow band of the planet, more than half of all the species of plants and animals in the world make their home. Several hundred different (49) of trees may grow in a single acre, (50) just one of those trees may be the habitat for more than ten thousand kinds of spiders, ants, and other insects. Unfortunately, half of the world’s rainforests have already been destroyed, and at the current rate, another 25 percent will be lost by the next year. Every sixty seconds, one hundred acres of rainforest is being cleared. By the time you finish reading this passage, two hundred acres will be destroyed. When this happens, constant rains erode the former forest floor and the ecology of the region is altered forever. Thousands of species of plants and animals are (51) to extinction and, since we are not able to (52) ramifications of this to a delicate global ecology, we do not know what we may be doing to the future of the human species as well.
