New Species Found in Papua Eden

An international team of scientists says it has found a “lost world” in the Indonesian jungle
that is the home to dozens of new animals and plant species. “It’s as close to the Garden of Eden as you’re
going to find on Earth,” said Bruce Beehler, co-leader of the group.

The group of Indonesian, American and Australian researchers trekked through an area in the mist -
shrouded Foja Mountainns of north-western Papua. After being dropped off by helicopter, the researchers
spent nearly a month in the area, detailing the wildlife and plantlife from the lower hills to near the summit of
the Foja range, which reaches more than 2,000m in elevation.

The team found four new species of butterflies, twenty new species of frogs, and a whole series of
remarkable plants including five new palms and a giant rhododendron flower. The survey also found a
honeyeater bird that was previously unknown to science and the first new bird species discovered on the
island of New Guinea since 1939.They also found the breeding grounds of a “lost” bird of paradise. The six-
wired bird of paradise was first seen in the late 19 th century but hadn’t been found again since. The team
also took the first photographs of the golden fronted bowerbird displaying its plunge. The team also
recorded a golden mantled tree kangaroo, which was not known to be in this area and is near extinction in
other areas. “It’s beautiful, untouched, unpopulated forest, there is no evidence of human impact or
presence”said Dr. Beehler,.

Whales are the largest animal on earth. Bigger than elephants, they may grow 95 feet long, and
weight 150 tons. A baby blue whale, just born, can be 23 feet long and weigh 3 tons.
Although whales live in the oceans and can swim like fish, they are not fish. They are mammals,
like cows and elephant. Unlike fish, they bear young alive not as eggs. Their babies live on their mother’s
milk. They breathe through their lungs and hold their breathe when they go under water. If they cannot
come to the surface to breathe fresh air, they will be drown. They are warm blooded. Fish, however, lay
eggs,breathe oxygen in the water and are cold blooded.
Whales live in all the oceans. In the winter some of them go to warm waters to breed and in the
summer most of them go to cold waters to feed. There are two kinds of whales, whales with teeth (toothed
whales) and whale without teeth (baleen whales). The toothed whales eat fish and squid, which they can
catch with their teeth, although they swallow their food without chewing it. The Baleen whales eat plankton
(small sea animals and plants). When they find plankton, they open their mouth and swim into the plankton.
When they close their mouth, they squeeze out the water and swallow the plankton.
Whales have few enemies. Only human beings and the whale killers attack whales. And whales
do not seem to fight among themselves. They usually live from 20 to 30 years.

 There are three separate sources of hazard in the process of supplying energy by nuclear power.
The radioactive material must travel from its place of manufacture to the power station. Although the
power station themselves are solidly built, the container used the transport of the materials are not. There
are normally only two methods of transport available, namely road and rail. Unfortunately, both of these
involve close contact with the general public, since the routes are sure to pass near, or even though, heavily
populated areas.
Next, there is the problem of waste. All nuclear power station produce waste that in most cases will
remain radioactive for thousands of years. It is impossible to make these wastes non radioactive, and so
they must be stored in one of the inconvenient ways that scientists have invented. For example they may be
buried under the ground, or dropped into abandoned mines, or sunk in the sea. However, these methods do
not solve the problem, since an earthquake could easily crack the containers open.
Finally, there is the problem of accidental exposure due to leak or an explosion at the power station. As
with the other two hazards, this is not very likely, so that it does not provide a serious objection to the
nuclear program. Nevertheless, it can happen.
Separately, these three types of risks are not great cause for concern. On the whole through, the
probability of disaster is still high.

31. The whole text tells us about ….

a. The danger of transporting radioactive materials
b. The way to make radioactive wastes not dangerous for people
c. The potentials dangers in supplying energy by nuclear power
d. The accident caused by nuclear power station.
e. People’s objections to the establishment of nuclear power station

32. What makes the transport of radioactive materials dangerous for people’s lives?
a. The road
b. The container
c. The rail
d. The power station
e. The heavily populated areas

33. Which of the following statement is TRUE about radioactive wastes?

a. There will be no more danger when radioactive waste are buried underground
b. There is no chance of saving people’s lives from radioactive wastes
c. Radioactive wastes become non radioactive when they are sunk in the sea.
d. Only earthquakes can change radioactive wastes into non radioactive wastes
e. Natural disaster may cause very serious leaks in buried containers of radioactive wastes

34. In spite of the problem which are likely to occur in supplying energy by nuclear power, the
Writer thinks that ….
a. people will strongly object to it
b. the probability of disaster is high
c. hazard should be rigidly controlled
d. it’s worth conducting nuclear programs
e. there is a great cause for concern

35. We may conclude from the third paragraph that the problem of accidental exposure is caused
by…..
a. human error
b. an earthquake
c. radioactive waste
d. hazards
e. bad design of the nuclear station

Why Is the World’s Population So Unevenly Distributed ?
 Population distribution refers to the way in which people are spread out over a land area. The
world’s population is not evenly spread out. Why do you think this is so? There are two main factors that
influence population distribution; a) the physical condition of the place and b) the level of technology of the
people. This refers to knowledge, skills and tools that the people have.
People tend to settle in areas where the soil is fertile and the climate is not too harsh. That is why
river deltas, such as Nile Delta in Egypt, are densely populated. There are fewer people living in hilly areas
with harsh climate because the extreme physical conditions make living and farming very difficult.
However, it is not impossible for people to survive under unfavorable living conditions. With
improvements in technology, places which were previously thought to be unsuitable for people can become
suitable. For example, an area with dry and hot area, such as Arizona, can be made more comfortable by
having buildings fitted with air-conditioners. Farming may be difficult in a place without fertile land and
adequate rainfall, but if the people earn their living by other means and not agriculture, the place will still be
populated.

SHOULD EXAMINATIONS BE ABOLISHED?
 Many people say that examinations should be abolished because they are not the best measure of
students’ capabilities. These people believe that students can study on their own and do better without the
nagging worry and pressure exerted by examinations.
Yet, there are persuasive reasons to show that examinations should not be abolished. It is
insufficient that teachers assign homework and correct it. Because this is not done under supervision, they
can not be sure that it is really the work of the students themselves. Moreover, homework is not a test of
student’s ability; homework is more a method of merely keeping him occupied.
Nowadays, in the hunt for jobs, students need to produce some evidence of their capabilities.

qualifications can be judged. This attitude greatly encourages the use of examinations, if not making them a
necessity.

e. The insufficient teachers in school

48. How to judge the student’s qualifications ?

a. checking his attitudes
b. referring to his diploma
c. concerning his behavior
d. trekking his activities
e. producing his capabilities

49. Why do some people disagree to abolish examination?

a. because exam’s results is the only proof of student’s capabilities
b. since nobody trust the students nowadays
c. as a regulation in the country
d. because homework can be done without teacher’s supervision
