SEA STARS
Sea stars, commonly called, “starfish” are not fish. Sea stars live underwater, but that is where their
resemblance to fish ends. They do not have gills, scales, or fins. Sea stars live only in saltwater. Sea water,
instead of blood, is actually used to pump nutrients through their bodies via a 'water vascular system.'
Also, sea stars move by using tiny tube feet located on the underside of their bodies. With so many little legs,
starfish can reach enormous speeds. Adult sunflower sea stars can move at the astonishing speed of one meter
per minute using 15,000 tube feet. Tube feet also help sea stars hold their prey.
Sea stars are related to sand dollars, sea urchins, and sea cucumbers, all of which are echinoderms, meaning
that they have five-point radial symmetry. However, this does not mean that all sea stars have five arms and
species with 10, 20, or even 40 arms exist! If one of these arms is lost, a sea star has the amazingly ability to
regenerate it.
9. What is the purpose of the text?
A. To tell how sea stars live. D. To compare between sea stars and fish.
B. To describe particular sea stars. E. To inform general description of sea stars.
C. To convince that sea stars are not fish.

10. How do we compare paragraphs 2 and 3?


A. Paragraph 2 is about how sea stars feed but paragraph 3 is about the form of sea stars.
B. Paragraph 2 is about how sea stars move but paragraph 3 is about category of sea stars.
C. Paragraph 2 is about the action of sea stars while paragraph 3 is about their regeneration.
D. Paragraph 2 is about the movement of sea stars but paragraph 3 is about their relationship.

My Most Unforgettable Holiday
In 2015, I went to Derawan Island with my friends and that marks my most memorable holiday ever!
In June, our school was having summer holiday, so we thought to ourselves that it shouldn't go to waste. We quickly browsed t
internet to find a good holiday destination and after an hour of heated debate, the four of us agreed to give Derawan Island a try. It was pur
out of curiousity as none of us had been there before.
We arrived at Soekarno-Hatta International Airport at 05.30 a.m. as the flight was at 07.00 a.m. First, we flew to Balikpapan and wait
for about an hour to continue the flight to Berau. As soon as we touched down in Berau, my friend called the tour agent that we had contact
earlier in Jakarta. They had got a car ready to take us to Labuan Batu. From Labuan Batu, we took a speedboat for about an hour to Deraw
Island. It was such a long trip to Derawan but it all paid off as soon as we saw how beautiful the island was.
My friends and I were quickly ushered to our rooms in the resort. It was fantastic! The rooms were in a cottage that was situated rig
above the sea. So we only had to step out the terrace to find ourselves out in the open sea! After unpacking our luggages and washing up,
went to the dining hall to grab our dinner. The dinner was only simple seafood dishes. The surrounding totally enhanced the dini
experience, making the food taste much better.
The following day, we took a speedboat tour, hopping from one island to another Our first trip stop was Kakaban Island where we hik
to reach the lake and swam among stingless jellyfish. The last time I heard, there were only three places in the world that have stingle
jellyfish; two of them in Indonesia! Isn't that great? The next stop was the Sangalaki Island where we got to visit sea turtle conservation a
took lots of pictures with sea turtle babies. They were so cute!
Our last stop was the Maratua Island where we were able to feed fish and see a three-legged sea turtle. The three-legged sea-tur
wasn't born that way. We were told that it was swimming in the open sea when it was still a baby then its leg got caught in plastic trash a
couldn't grow even when the sea-turtle reached adulthood. One of the island's guards saw the sea-turtle and saved it. He also untangled t
plastic trash that bound the sea-turtle's leg but it was too late. Since then, the sea-turtle is kept in a special space next to the resort in Marat
Island and the guards take turns feeding it to ensure its survival. This is why we should never litter and endanger other creatures! Af
Maratua Island, we headed back to Derawan Island to catch a late dinner and turned in.
The following morning, we wake up early and ate our breakfast in the dining room. Then, the driver drove us back to the airport so
could catch a flight back to Jakarta. We arrived at Jakarta, exhausted but terribly happy! It was the most unforgettable trip I have ev
experienced so far!

the highest is 14 meters (46 feet). The average width is 6.5 meters (21.3 feet).
Having a wonderful Great Wall tour is a must for one’s China trip. Along this super long wall, Beijing ranks the top

climate change.

powerful greenhouse gas that is released as the biodegradable waste (such as food and paper) decomposes. Existing landfill sites a

A massive reduction in the amount of waste we send to landfill is required if we are to avoid the heavy fines and the landfill tax

Cloning of Animals
In the modern era, technology has developed to such a certain degree that scientists are able to create new forms
of life. One of them is cloning. The debate whether cloning of animals should be allowed or not seems endless.
Those who agree with cloning of animals usually argue that the cells produced from them can be used to stop
animals from becoming extinct. Many species are becoming rarer and rarer. Scientists are concerned if they don’t do
something to save certain species, these animals will be extinct forever. For this reason, researchers have improved
cloning technology so that many rare species can be successfully cloned. They also add that cloning has a purpose to
produce high quality of cells.
However, not everyone is excited about cloning animals. Some people feel that it could have terrible
consequences. For example, if dinosaurs are cloned, then men could be extinct. It is clear that these ferocious beasts
cannot live together with humans. In history, these creatures lived several thousand years before men appeared. Can
you imagine these giant killing creatures living within the same era and on the same planet with us?
As a result of this controversy, people still haven’t got the answer yet for cloning animals. Moreover, some
members of the scientific community think that the banning of cloning technology will destroy the creativity of science.

39. The text mainly tells us about….
