The legend of Lake Batur
A long time ago, there lived on the island of Bali a giantlike creature named Kbo Iwo. The people of Bali used to say that Kbo Iwo was everything, a destroyer as well as creator. He was satisfied with the meal, but this meant for thr Balinese people enough food for a thousand men.
Difficulties arose when for the first time the barns were almost empty and the new harvest was still a long way off. This made Kbo Iwo wild with great anger. In his hunger, he destroyed all the houses and even all the temples. It made the Balinese turn to rage. So, they came together to plan steps to oppose thus powerful giant by using his stupidity.

      They asked Kbo Iwo to build them a very deep well, and rebuild all the houses and temples he had destroyed. After they fed Kbo Iwo, he began to dig a deep hole. One day he had eaten too much, he fell asleep in the hole. The oldest man in the village began to throw the limestone they had collected before into the hole boiling. Kbo Iwo was buried alive.

Read the following text for answering question no. 34– 37
Orangutan means ‘forest man’ – a very suitable name for the largest of the tree dwelling apes; a large male can weigh 90 kg.
Orangutans live in Sumatra and Kalimantan. They are very gentle animals and live quietly several meters off the ground. They spend their time moving from mea to meal by passing from tree to tree, swinging rather than jumping, using their long arms to carefully reach out the gaps among trees.
It is thought that there are about 150,000 wild orangutans, but only about 20,000 are in reserves and safely protected from danger. The main threat to the orangutans comes from logging companies, or from people who illegally capture and sell orangutans as pets. The logging companies exploit the living rain forests for timber but in doing so destroy the environment for the orangutans. The orangutans need dense forests so that they can easily move from tree to tree in searching for food.
The destruction of rain forests could also bring about the extinction of orangutans. They cannot survive without dense living forests.

a.      The orangutan’s preserve
b.      The destruction of rainforests
c.       The existence of orangutans
d.      The exploitation from logging companies


35.    What is the most dangerous enemy for orangutans?


a.      The lack of the food
b.      The existence of rainforests

a.        Easy to find food                                 c. Not difficult to get food
b.        Close to the food sources                    d. Hard to find food

The Underlined word has the same meaning to….
a.        disappearance                                     c. recollection
