To improve comfort and cleanliness at our school, number of dustbins should beincreased. When we look at classrooms, school corridors and school yard, there are

papers, mineral water cups, straws and napkins here and there. The condition ofuncleanliness and discomfort really hinders learning and teaching environment. Litters

thrown carelessly cause disease, especially empty plastic cups or glasses. They can befilled out with water coming from the rain. This can be places for dengue mosquitoes to

spread out. Besides, this rubbish can deteriorate the scene. Well-painted wall and greenschool yard do not mean anything if litters are scattered everywhere.

I notice that most of the students in our school have responsibilities for their schoolenvironment. They put their litters on the proper places. But some are not diligent enough

to find the dustbins. The number of dustbins in our school is not enough. Most dustbinsshould be put beside each of steps, outside the classrooms and some more along the

corridors. Probably one dustbin should be in every ten meters. When students want tothrow away their litters, they can find the dustbins easily.

When school is equipped with sufficient dustbins, we do not have problems of filthand discomfort anymore. Our school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.

49. It can be inferred from the text that the writer suggest .

a. to buy more dustbinsb. to hire more gardeners

c. to use dustbins efficientlyd. to ask parets to give more dustbins

e. to ask students to clean the school yard

50. According to the writer, more dustbins in every ten meters.a. should be decorated

b. should be paintedc. should be placed

d. are unnessarye. are not required


10/12

51. The communicative purpose of the text above is to something good.

a. inform b. explain

c. describe

d. entertaine. persuade

52. What is the writers argument on a sufficient number of dustbins .a. they can prevent litters

b. they can save janitors energyc. students are asked to clean them

d. they make school environment neate. students can throw garbage away easily

53. , especially empty plastic cups of glasses. The word especially has similar

meaning with .a. generallyb. usuallyc. particularlyd. occasionallye. basically

One of the biggest things a student must figure out upon entering school is what

to do with all that time. Free schedule as they please and free from the obligation of lifeat home, students find themselves with a wealth of time they may or may not have.

There are things which you might consider working. First of all, if you want to becool and go out with your classmates and buy some cool stuff, well you need money! By

getting a job, you get money. Of course, you have to work for it but still, it can-andprobably will-be useful. There is not only money to consider though. Experience is an

important asset for after finishing your school. When you work during your school yearand add it to your resume. It will show your future employers that you are able to manage

to pursue two activities at the same time, or more if you are involved elsewhere. Anotherinteresting thing to consider is the contacts you might make by working. By contacts, I

mean people that can be useful to you later in life. If you have different jobs, you makenew references you can later add to your CV along with the experience. Also, if you are

luck enough to get a job in your area of studies, it may later become a permanent job.The main disadvantge on you life is you will have less time for scchoool work-

and social life of course. This also means you get less free time to just hang out or partyor do other stuffs tahn work and study. This is an important part of your life if you do

notr want to go all crazy! It also important if you want to be cool. Having a job can alsoadd another source of stress to your life. Depending on the type of job you are looking

for, you may get a boss that always wants more hours and presses you to be moreavailable. One of the things you can do is to set yourself a maximum number of hours

you want to work per week and make this clear with your employer at the beginning ofthe year.

My biggest recomendation is not to rush into anything. Its perfectly acceptableto spend the first few weeks of schools adjusting and having fun, and then slide a job

into the mix when youve grown comfortable everything else. Finally, never allow anoutside job to get in the way of your health and school years in general. While work may

keep you motivated and get you needed money, its not worth losing your education or

well being over. Obtain what you needed, but if you feel yourself slipping take some timeoff, or find a better place to work. Youll have plenty of time to work post school.

54. Which of the following is NOT the advantage of taking part-time jobs?a. you will get money which you can use to buy some cool stuff.

b. you will have less time for school work.c. you will gain working experience

d. you will expand your contacts and net working.e. you will get references which you can add to your CV later on.
