combination of powerful punches and solid defense. In the third round, Chris had several chances to floor the 24‐year‐old Caballero, connecting with hooks and upper cuts to the jaw of the challenger, who fired very little in reply. Chris kept up the pressure and in the sixth round unleashed a flurry of punches to put the challenger down. Caballero tried to fight back in the seventh round, but Chris’ defense was simply too solid. The Panamanian was unable to continue the bout, which was scheduled for 12 rounds. With the victory, Chris stretched his record to 47 wins, no defeats and one draw, with 21 KOs and one TKO. Chris received Rp2 billion (US$215,000) for the fight, while Caballero earned Rp650 million.

Questions 23 to 25 refer to the following text. Swimming
When I was a boy, I liked swimming very much. Each year my two brothers and I spent the holiday with our uncle and aunt in their house by the sea. It was only twenty yards from the water. The water was warm, the sun shone brightly, and most days there were no waves. In the middle of the day a wind always began to blow, but it was not strong and did not make the sea rough. One day, we put on our swimming‐shorts before breakfast. Then, we ran down to the sea across the sand and jumped in. We were in the sea or on the beach until late at night. When our aunt rang a bell, we went back to the house for food, but we ate it in our swimming‐shorts and soon went back in the sea again. We were all very good swimmers. We dived through the waves or rode towards the beach on top of them until we were tired and hungry. Adapted from: L.A. Hill, 1963 23. Which statement is TRUE according to the text? A. The boys’ home was near the sea. B. There were waves every day. C. The boys had breakfast in the house. D. The waves carried the boys towards the beach. E.

Questions 26 to 28 refer to the following text.
Recycling is a collection, processing, and reuse of materials that would otherwise be thrown away. Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass, from old newspapers to plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims the original material and uses it in new products. In general, using recycled materials to make new products costs less and requires less energy than using new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution, either by reducing the demand for high‐pollution alternatives or by minimizing the amount of pollution produced during the manufacturing process. Paper products that can be recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping paper, and office paper. The most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In newspaper recycling, old newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it is mixed with hot water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big kitchen blender. The pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The pulp then goes to a large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and floats to the surface. The ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or burned as boiler fuel. The cleaned pulp is mixed with new wood fibers to be made into paper again. Adapted from: Microsoft Encarta Premium 2006 26. The following things can be recycled, except …. A. precious metals B. broken glass C. old newspapers D. plastic spoons E. fresh vegetables and fruits 27. Which of the following is NOT the benefit of recycling? A. It costs much money for the process of recycling. B. It costs less to make new products. C. It requires less energy. D. It can reduce pollution. E. It reduces the demand for high‐pollution alternatives. 28. What is the third step of recycling paper products? A. Collect and search for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminium foil. B. Mix the paper with hot water in a blender which turns it into pulp. C. Screen and filter the pulp to remove smaller contaminants. D. Put the pulp to a large vat to separate the ink from the paper fibers. E. Mix the pulp with new wood fibers to be made into paper again.

Questions 29 to 32 refer to the following text. Should Americans be Forced to Use Public Transportation?
by Jack Davis First, let me define what the question is and isn’t asking. It isn’t asking if we should all abandon cars right now, nor is it asking if we should abandon them completely, nor is it asking if every American should do so. It is asking whether some Americans should have to take public transit some of the time, and I would say yes. Oil use and pollution aside, in some cities like Los Angeles and New York, there just isn’t room for any more roads, so in order for large cities to grow, they need more people to take public transit or risk permanent traffic jam. One bus can safely hold 40 people, so even at half capacity that’s nearly 20 cars’ worth of space in traffic cleared up, and nearly 20 parking spaces that don’t need to be built. There are a lot of people that can take public transit with little inconvenience but simply don’t because they never have in the past. If residents in areas with plenty of transit had to buy transit passes as part of their property taxes, then they would have little excuse not to bus occasionally. A number of universities already bundle a ‘U‐Pass’ with their tuition fees, forcing their students to take the bus. When given the chance the majority of those students have voted to keep these programs. A similar system in apartments where a portion of the tenants are not issued parking spaces in exchange for a discount on their rent would also be forcing people to use public transit. This is already being done with the assignment of one community car to several apartment tenants that arrange a schedule for the car, and this program gets many positive reviews. So yes, I would say that Americans should be forced to use public transit, as Americans whom are already forced to do so find that it works well for them. Adapted from: www.helium.com 29. What does the writer suggest? A. American should give up their cars. B. The government should limit the number cars. C. Americans should learn to use public transportations. D. Americans should be forced to use public transportations. E. The government should charge extra taxes for those who use cars. 30. The following is one of the writer’s suggestions in forcing people to use public transportations … A. Make people buy transit passes as part of their property taxes. B. Fine people who do not use public transportations. C. Stop automobiles productions. D. Limit the number of gasoline. E. Banning the use of cars. 31. What is the purpose of the article? A. Asking for more public transportations. B. Defining the functions of public transportations. C. Suggesting American the ways to use public transportation. D. Arguing that American should not use public transportations. E. Suggesting that American should be forced to use public transportations. 13

Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) is a washed‐up 80’s pop star who’s been reduced to working the nostalgia circuit at county fairs and amusement parks. The charismatic and talented musician gets a chance at a comeback when reigning diva Cora Corman (Haley Bennett) invites him to write and record a duet with her, but there’s a problem‐‐Alex hasn’t written a song in years, he’s never written lyrics, and he has to come up with a hit in a matter of days, enter Sophie Fisher (Drew Barrymore), Alex’s attractively quirky lady, whose flair for words strikes a chord with the struggling songwriter. On the rebound from a bad relationship, Sophie is reluctant to collaborate with anyone, especially commitment‐probe Alex. As their chemistry heats up at the piano and under it, Alex and Sophie will have to face their fears‐‐and the music‐‐if they want to find the love and success they both deserve. Casts:
