Answer the questions following the talk, by choosing A, B, C, or D which best answers the questions. Remember, you are not allowed to take notes or write in your test book. ‐‐Contoh soal— Can tree talk? Yes – but not in words. Scientists have reason to believe that trees do communicate with each other. Not long ago, researchers learned some surprising things. First, a willow tree attacked in the woods by caterpillars changed the chemistry of its leaves and made them taste so awful that the caterpillars got disgusted and stopped eating them. Then, even more astonishing, the tree sent out special vapors – an alarm signal stimulating its neighbors to change the chemistry of their own leaves and make them tasty. Communication, of course, doesn’t need to be in words. We can talk to each other by a smile, frown, a shrug of our shoulder, a gesture with our hands. We know that birds signals flying in certain patterns that tell other bees where to find nectar for honey. So why shouldn’t trees have ways of sending messages? 11. What is the topic of the talk? A. The talking tree B. Communication C. Ways of sending messages D. Willow tree 12. How does a willow tree communicate its neighbors when it is attacked by caterpillars? A.

‐‐PART IV READING COMPREHENSION‐‐ Choose the best answer to each question based on the information which is stated or implied in the text. ‐‐Contoh soal—

Text 1 One of only four orangutan sanctuaries in the world, Sepilok is about 25 km north of Sandakan. The center was established in 1964; it now covers 40 sq km and has become one of Sabah’s top tourist attractions. The centre has doubtless suffered from its own success – so many camera‐clicking tourists are turned loose on the viewing platforms that the atmosphere can seem more like a circus than a sanctuary. More seriously, constant contact with humans has exposed the orang‐utans to diseases, which can make rehabilitation to the wild all but impossible. Orangutans are the only species of great ape found outside Africa. A mature male is an impressive, not to mention hairy, creature with an armspan of 2.25 m, and can weigh up to 144 kg. It was once said that an orangutan could swing from tree to tree from one side of Borneo to the other without touching the ground. Sadly this is no longer case, and hunting and habitat destruction continue to take their toll. Orphaned and injured orangutans are bought to Sepilok to be rehabilitated to return to forest life, and so far the center has handled about 100, although only about 20 still return regularly to be fed. It’s unlikely you’ll see anywhere near this number at feeding time – three or four is more likely. Females that have returned to the wild often come back to the feeding platforms when they’re given birth, after which they go back to the forest. The orangutans are fed fruit, such as bananas, twice daily from a platform in the forest, about 10 minutes’ walk from the center. This feeding is just to supplement what they can find for themselves in the jungle – if trees are fruiting, few apes will turn up. Young orangutans in particular are endlessly appealing, with ginger fur and intelligent eyes. Macaques may also join the feeding and photo frenzy – it’s quite dim under the forest canopy and if you’re taking photographs, you’ll need ASA 400 film. Malaysia, Singapore, and Brunei, Lonely Planet, p 429‐430. 1. What does the passage mainly disccuss? (A) (B) (C) (D)
