A Day Visit to Yogyakarta

Last week, I went to Yogyakarta with my family. My father drove the car. My mother
sat beside him. My sister and I sat in the back seats.
 We woke up early in the morning. My father prepared the car in the garage while
mother was preparing food for breakfast and some snack for us. My sister and I packed
some clothes. After everything got ready and we had our breakfast, we left the house at
six o’clock.
It was about nine a.m. We arrived at Yogyakarta. First of all we visited our uncle. We
stayed there for an hour. Then we went to Parangtritis beach. We got there at eleven.
There were a lot of tourists there because it was a holiday. I saw many foreign visitors too.
My parents watched us playing with sand in the beach. We did not swim and take a bath
since the wave was rough. After having lunch, we went on our picnic to the museum and
Malioboro shopping centre.
We drove back to Semarang at 7 o’clock and arrived home at ten. We were tired but
happy.

There was once a house that was overrun with mice. A cat heard of this, and said to herself,
"That's the place for me," and off she went and took up her quarters in the house, and caught the mice
one by one and ate them.
At last the mice could stand it n longer, and they determined to take to their holes and stay there.
"That's awkward," said the cat to herself. "The only thing to do is to coax them out by a trick." So she
considered a while, and then climbed up the wall and let herself hang down by her hind legs from a peg,
and pretended to be dead.
By and by a mouse peeped out and saw the cat hanging there. "Aha!" it cried, "You're very
clever, madam, no doubt. But you may turn yourself into a bag of meal hanging there, if you like, yet

Camels
Camels have lived in some of the most desolate corners of our planet, and not only
do they live, they thrive. Most large animals are unable to survive in these kinds of
desolate places. This is because of their large requirement for resources such as food
and water. Camels are able to use this to their advantage as a survival strategy. By
living in deserts, mountains, and other arid places Camels are able to avoid predators,
and others who would compete for resources. Camels are only able to do this because
of their amazing ability to efficiently use the resources their environments provide.
A camel can travel long distances which allow them to take advantage of the
maximum number of resources. They can withstand a massive amount of dehydration
which allow them to survive not only between watering holes, but sometimes between
seasons. When at a watering hole camels are able to gorge themselves and rehydrate
quickly.
For food, camels are omnivorous. They can eat almost anything be it vegetation,
meat, or bone,-- salty or sweet, a camels stomach knows no limits. But it is their
temperament that is truly endeared the camel to man. Docile and sweet under a caring
hand, but stubborn and angry if ill treated, the camel both wins your heart and your
respect.

a. Kinds of camels
 b. Camels’ life
c. The habitat of camels
d. Camels’ food
34.Where do camels generally live?
a. desolate corners of earth
