Recycling is a collection, processing, and reuse of materials that would otherwise be

thrown away. Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass, from old
newspapers to plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims the
original material and uses it in new products.
In general, using recycled materials to make new products costs less and requires less
energy than using new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution, either by
reducing the demand for high-pollution alternatives or by minimizing the amount of
pollution produced during the manufacturing process.
Paper products that can be recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping paper, and
office paper. The most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In newspaper
recycling, old newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants such as plastic
bags and aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it is mixed with hot
water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big kitchen blender. The
pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The pulp then goes to a
large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and fl oats to the surface. The
ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or burned as boiler fuel. The cleaned pulp is
mixed with new wood fibers to be made into paper again.
Experts estimate the average office worker generates about 5 kg of wastepaper per
month. Every ton of paper that is recycled saves about 1.4 cu m (about 50 cu ft) of
landfill space. One ton of recycled paper saves 17 pulpwood trees (trees used to
produce paper).
21. The following things can be recycled, EXCEPT….
A. Precious metals B. Broken glass C. Old newspapers D. Plastic spoons E.
Fresh vegetables and fruits
22. Which of the following is NOT the benefit of recycling?
A. It costs much money for the process of recycling B. It costs less to make new
products
C. It requires less energy D. It can reduce pollution E. It reduces the demand for
high-pollution alternatives
23. What is the third step of recycling paper products?
A. Collect and search for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminum foil
B. Mix the paper with hot water in a blender which turns it into pulp
C. Screen and filter the pulp to remove smaller contaminants
D. Put the pulp to a large vat to separate the ink from the paper fibers
E. Mix the pulp with new wood fibers to be made into paper again
24. We can make use of the ink after being separated from the paper fibres by doing the
following, EXCEPT….
A. Skim it off B. Dry it C. Reuse as ink D. Burn as boiler fuel E. Mix it with the pulp
Teks Explanation 2
Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to built up new
cells and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be changed
into substances that can be carried in the blood to the places where they are needed.
This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into
small pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands in the
mouth. Saliva contains digestive juice which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed
easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into the
stomach. Here, the food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for
several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All the time the muscular walls
of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon absorbed by the villi
(microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the
bloodstream.

25. What is the text about?

A. The digestive system B. The digestive juice C. The method of the digestive
system D. The process of intestine work E. The food substances
26. How can we swallow the food easily?
A. The food changes into acids absorbed by the villi. B. The food must be digested
first through the process. C. The food is directly swallowed through esophagus into
the stomach.
D. The food is mixed with the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach. E. The food
we take must be changed into substances carried in the blood to the places.
27. From the text above, we imply that ….
A. a good process of digestive system will help our body become healthier.
B. No one is concerned with the process of the digestive system for their health.
C. The digestive system is needed if we are eating the food instantly.
D. Everybody must conduct the processes of the digestive system well.
E. the better we digest the food we eat, the healthier we will be.
28. “Human body is made up of countless millions of cells.” (Paragraph 1) The phrase
“made up” means ….
A. produced B. managed C. arranged D. completed E. constructed

Have you ever wondered where people get chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the
amazing world of chocolate so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions,
especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree
produces a fruit about the size of a small pineapple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds,
also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the
chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the
flavor. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they
are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are
winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the
nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called
chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans
are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form
liquid. It’s pure bitter chocolate.
29. The text is about …
A. the cacao tree B. the cacao beans C. the raw chocolate D. the making of
chocolate
E. the flavor of chocolate
30. The third paragraph focuses on …
A. the process of producing chocolate B. how to produce the cocoa flavor C. where
chocolate comes from D. the chocolate liqueur E. the cacao fruit
31. ” …, so they are often sorted and blended to produce …” (Paragraph 3.) The word
“sorted “is close in meaning to …
A. arranged B. combined C. separated D. distributed E. organized
32. How does the chocolate maker start to make chocolate?
A. By fermenting the beans. B. By roasting the beans C. By blending the beans.
D. By sorting the beans. E. By drying the beans

What is photosynthesis? Photosynthesis is a food-making process that occurs in green

plants. It is the chief function of leaves. The word photosynthesis means putting
together with light. Green plants use energy from light to combine carbon dioxide and
water to make sugar and other chemical compounds.
How is the light used in photosynthesis?
The light used in photosynthesis is absorbed by a green pigment called chlorophyll.
Each food-making cell in a plant leaf contains chlorophyll in small bodies called
chloroplasts. In chloroplast, light energy causes water drawn from the soil to split into
hydrogen and oxygen.
What are the steps of the photosynthesis process? Let me tell you about the process of
photosynthesis, in a series of complicated steps, the hydrogen combines with carbon
dioxide from the air, forming a simple sugar. Oxygen from the water molecules is given
off in the process. From sugar together with nitrogen, sulfur, and phosphorus from the
soil-green plants can make starch, fat, protein, vitamins, and other complex compounds
essential for life. Photosynthesis provides the chemical energy that is needed to
produce these compounds.
33. What step after the hydrogen combines with carbon dioxide from the air …
A. Photosynthesis provides the chemical energy that is needed to produce these
compounds.
B. Water is drawn from the soil to split into hydrogen and oxygen.
C. Food-making process that occurs in green plants.
D. Phosphorus from the soil-green plants can make starch, fat, protein, vitamins, and
other complex compounds essential for life.
E. Oxygen from the water molecules is given off in the process.
34. What do photosynthesis need …
A. Water, light, oxygen, worm B. Soil, chlorophyll, sun, human C. Bug, air, oxygen,
food
D. Light, Carbon dioxide, humus E. Candle, vitamins, hydrogen
35. What the product of photosynthesis …
A. Sugar B. Food and O2 C. Root D. Food E. Branch
A trip to Mount Fuji
July 2021, I went to West Tokyo by plane. It was my first journey to Japan. I took a trip to Mount
Fuji. I stayed at Sakura’s house. She is my friend in Japan. We were a classmate at Senior High
School. Sakura’s house has a big garden with lots of green flowers and beautiful sand. It was so
perfect element of a traditional wooden house.
On Sunday morning, I started a journey to the Mountain. At Shizuoka Prefecture, I met Yamato.
He was my guiding to Mount Fuji. We took sushi for breakfast. Oh my God, It was delicious. At
9:00 am. local time, we prepared and checked our stuff to continue this journey. I couldn’t say
anything when I looked at the beautiful scenery from the foot of the mountain. Yamato looked
and smiled at me. He said in Japan language “Kore Wa subarashdesu.” It means that it was
amazing. Then, I replayed “Hai,-sdesu.” It means that yes, it was.
We reached the top of the mountain after a long and tiring trip. I screamed to blow up my
emotion and said thanks to God for this beautiful life. We enjoyed the view from the peak and
waiting for the next day. The day that I couldn’t forget. It was called “Hatsu Hinode” It means
that it was my first time to see the sun rises in Mount Fuji.
Finally, I, Yamato and the other traveler went home by the blessing of Mount Fuji. That was a
very pleasant moment that I ever got.
