Trappists are monks who are not allowed to preach or teach. Their lives are devoted to meditation, studying adn reading
In 1949, one group of Trappists fled to Hongkong from China, leaving behind their house and their dairy industry. They dressed themselves as labourers and carried only a few possessions.
Here, the monks had to start a new life. They found it difficult to obtain food and they had nowhere to live; but somehow they managed with the help of the community and charitable organization. It was not until 1995 that Hongkong government granted them land on Lantao island.
The monks are not allowed to beg for a living, so they had to work very hard on the island. They started a dairy farm, kept about five hundred chicken and started growing their own vegetables.
A large part of the work of Trappists is concerned with their dairy. The cows are fed regularly, milked and kept healthly. The dairy, which produces about two thousand bottles of milk a day, brings the monks their main income. The monks sell about half of the milk to a large hotel in Hongkong, while hospitals and schools buy the rest. The monks also earn some money by selling eggs. Sometimes, the Trappists sell some of their cattle. The monks themselves do not eatr meat, however, as they are vegetarians.

B.
The monks provide milk to a large hotel.
C.
The Trappists feed the cows regularly.
D.

Iam a guy, twenty-eight years old. I have a problem with a girl friend. She is twenty five years old. We have been dating each other for years, since we were high school student. Now we have jobs. I feel very sure that we love each other. Now it is time for me to get married. Unfortunately, her parents never approve of our relationship ever since the very firs time. My family, anyhow, does not really mind. At first I thought my girl friend had the power to defend our love. But then he surrendered. She loves me and she loves her family, too. On the one hand she said,”I’ll be happy if my family is happy.” It means she had to get approval from her parents.
For this, I was shocked. My heart was broken. She ended our relationship just at the time when I was ready to marry her. When I was with her, we were very happy. We had a lot of in common and there were no conflicts. The truth was, we separated only because of her parents. They want her to marry her cousin, her aunt’s son (this is one of the traditions in the Karonese).
For the time being I am very upset. When I miss her I call her. Then we can eat together, talk together for hours. We act like dating because she loves me, too. The real problem is, she cannot refuse what her parents what.
So, should I forget my girl friend, the only one that I truly love? Or else,should I just wait, and dream that one day she will be back to me?

Soal : 78
There is reason for the deepest concern about the plight of wild-life in our country. Many rare species are threatened with extinction because of the greed of hunters and game collectors. Orangutans are rarely found in their natural habitat in the forest of Kalimantan and Sumatra, but one may find them in zoos and private menageries all over the world. Ruthless hunters kill innocent elephants for their valuable ivory tusks, or catch them alive to perform in distant countries.
If things are allowed to continue this way, it is feared that very soon all wild life will disappear from our forests. Fortunately, the government has now imposed strict laws on hunting. Some areas are designated wild life reserves where hunters cannot enter. These include Ujungkulon and Pangandaran in West Java, Merubetiri in East Java, and many more in the other island.
Some time ago our newspapers contained reports of elephants which had run amok in the province of Lampung. They had emerged from their abode in the forest and destroyed crops and houses belonging to the villagers. The people could not understand why the beast had suddenly gone wild. The strange thing was that the animals had not come for food, because having wrought destruction thay returned to the forest. They seemed to have come only to vent their anger. As elephants are protected by law, the people could not kill any of them.
The explanation for the eleephants' strange behavior is that they felt their quiet life had been disturbed by the timber-feelling projects and sawmillsset up deep in the forest. the animals felt their domain was being narowwed by man, and so they got angry. Elephants need peace and quiet for they family life. They also need vast areas of land In which to roam. They live in herds, and each herd likes to have its won territory.
Now the government has driven the elephants back into the forest, away from any village or lumber-mill. By shouting and shooting in the air the people drove the great beasts to a new adobe in the districtof Air Sugihan. It is hoped that they will feel at home there, and can live in peace and quiet.
The main idea of the first paragraph is....
A.
we can find orangutans in zoos
B.
elephants are hunted for their skin
C.
hunters are not allowed to kill orangutans
D.
the cause of worrying the plight of wild life in our country
E.
rare species of animals are also likely to extinct.
