Keep an Eye on the Sky!I was in gym class when my teacher suggested that we went outside

and played softball. As we made our way out to the field, my stomach slowly turned into a giant knot of fear. Softball is just not my game. I have a knack for always getting hit in the head by the ball. It doesn’t matter where I’m standing. The ball just seems to find me.

My teammates gave me a glove and put me way out in left field. I didn’t complain. I just wanted to make sure I knew when gym class ended so I wouldn’t be left behind.

Nothing happened the first three innings. Well, things happened but not in my little part of the softball field. I started daydreaming. The next thing I knew, I heard the sound of a ball whizzing through the air. I put up my glove to protect my head, and an amazing thing happened. I caught the ball in my glove! Not only did I catch the ball, but I helped my team win.I was a hero to my classmates for the rest of the day. I learned something. I may not always see the flying balls that come my way, but I can always take a chance and try to catch one.

My First Flight

This experience happened when I was going to Jakarta 30 years ago. I imagined I would have a happy journey that day. I knew it was going to be my bad day, when the taxi driver got lost to the airport. It was 30 minutes before the plane was taking off. I was so panic. I asked the driver to speed up the taxi.

When finally we got to the airport, the receptionist could not find my name which I booked by phone. When I spelled my name, finally she could find it after 15 minutes.

I was the last passenger to board the plane. I hoped I sat next to a young handsome boy. Then I found my seat, and fastened my seatbelt. It was a five-year old boy who caught cold sitting next to me. He was busy to wipe his mucus while sometimes sneezing. I offered my tissue to him. He was glad to accept it.

After five minutes taking off, the flight attendant informed that one of the plane machines didn’t work. He wanted us not to worry. Five minutes later, he told us that another machine didn’t work. Still, he wanted us to be calm down. When the flight reached around 500 feet, another machine didn’t work. The pilot decided to land the plane and return to the airport because he would not fly the plane with only one machine working.

Finally the plane landed safely. I planned to return home as soon as possible and not to go that day. I took my luggage and went home directly. I was glad that nothing happened to me that day. What I wanted to do was unloaded my luggage, had a bath and went to bed. When I looked down my luggage, I was so surprised that I had taken the wrong luggage.

37. How do you think the receptionist asked the writer to spell her name?A. Spell your name!B. How can I spell your name?C. Do you want to spell your name?D. Could you please spell your name?

38. Which of these made the writer so panic?A. 30 minutes before the plane was taking off, she was still on the wayB. She imagined she would have a happy journey that dayC. She was going to Jakarta for the first time. D. The driver speeded up the taxi.


39. How many machines did the plane have?A. 1B. 2

C. 3D. 4

40. Which of these statements is true according to the text?A. The writer enjoyed her first flight.B. The plane landed in Jakarta safely.C. There’s nothing wrong with the plane. D. The writer cancelled her travel that day.

41. Analyze the generic structure of this text on the answer sheet.

The Chipmunk That Ran Away

Once upon a time, there was a nervous little chipmunk. She was always afraid that something bad happened to her.One day, she heard a little noise. It was really only an apple that fell to the ground. But the little Chipmunk was afraid and said “The sky is falling in.” Then she ran away as fast as she could go.

Soon she met an old brother Chipmunk, who asked, “Where are you running to, little Chipmunk?” The little Chipmunk answered, “The sky is falling in, and I am running away.” “The sky is falling in?” asked the old brother Chipmunk. Then he told the story to his brother chipmunk, until at last there were a hundred brother Chipmunks shouting, ”The sky is falling in.” Soon the larger animals heard what the Chipmunks were saying. The Deer, the Sheep, the Pig, the Camel, the Tiger, and the Elephant began to say, “The sky is falling in.”

Then the wise Lion heard all the noise and wanted to know what was happening. He stopped all the animals and asked, “What are you saying?” The brother Chipmunks said, “Oh we heard it from that little Chipmunk!” And the Lion said, “Little Chipmunk, what made you say that the sky was falling in?” And the little Chipmunk said, “I saw it there near the tree.”

“Well,” said the Lion, “Come with me and I will show you something ”. “Now get on my back.” The Lion took her on his back, and asked the animals to stay where they were until they returned. Then he showed the little Chipmunk that the apple had fallen to the ground. This made the noise that had made her afraid. The little Chipmunk said, “Oh, I see. The sky is not falling in.”

The Lion said, “Let’s go back and tell the other animals.”So they went back. At last all the animals knew that the sky was not falling in.

42. Finish this text with a resolution part.

Once there were three bears that lived in a house in the woods: a papa bear, a mama bear, and a baby bear. One morning they decided to take a walk before breakfast to let their porridge cool.

A little girl named Goldilocks lived with her mother nearby. Goldilocks took a walk through the woods and found the bear’s house. She

smelled the porridge in the kitchen and went inside. Goldilocks tasted the porridge in each bowl and finally ate up the porridge in the small bowl.

Then she sat on a big chair, but she didn’t like it, because it was hard. Afterwards she sat on the small chair, and it was just right. But while she was sitting on it she broke it. After eating the porridge, Goldilocks felt full and sleepy, and then she went upstairs. There she found a small bed. She laid down on it and fell asleep.

While she was sleeping, the three bears came home. _______________
