Knowing that their sparrow flew away, the kind man and his wife looked for the
sparrow. They walked a long way, crossed the bridges, climbed the mountains and
passed the woods.
At last, they could find the sparrow's nest. The sparrow welcomed them and provided
a feast for them. Before they went home, the sparrow brought two baskets; one was
large and looked heavy, and the other one was small and light. The sparrow asked
them to choose only one. They chose the small and that was the best choice. There
were many rolls of silk and piles of gold in it.
Being jealous, the ill-tempered old woman did the same thing as the kind man and

times he yelled at her.

B. One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchants ship which
was being raided by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant.
With his brave and power, Malin Kundang defeated the pirates. The

C. At last, Malin Kundang said to her, enough, old woman! I have never had
a mother like you, a dirty and ugly woman!. After that, he ordered his
crews to set sail. He would leave the old mother again but in that time
she was full of both sadness and angriness.

he didnt apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail. IN the
quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was wrecked and
it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown by the
wave out of the ship. He fell on a small island. It was really too late for
him to avoid his curse, he turned into a stone.

E. A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a
woman and her son lived. They were malin Kundang and her mother. Her
mother was simple parent because Malin Kundangs father had passed
away when he was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother.
Malin Kundang was a healthy, diligent, and strong boy. He usually went to
sea to catch fish. After getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or
sold the caught fish in the town.

F. Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge ship and
was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he had a
beautiful wife too. When he was sailing his trading journey, his ship landed

Activity 4 Read the text and then do the exercise
Lets Make City Clean and Fresh
A clean and fresh city will surely make the inhabitants healthy. Every morning
especially in dry season, all roads must be watered with clean water and swept by
the workers of the regional government under the Majors instruction.
To keep the people from heavy pollution caused by cars, trucks and motorcycles,
enough trees must be planted along all roads. Every building or house in the city
must be surrounded short and small trees which bear colorful flower.
Bad and improper habits which cause disadvantages, bad smell and dangerous
diseases to people such as smoking and throwing rubbish anywhere should be
stopped at once.
The major of each city will have to think over the way how to educate people, so that
they realize on how important cleanliness and health are for their own sake. Building
more public lavatories at every busy place is very badly needed.
It will be wise if the Major decides a certain amount of fine to be paid by those who
disobey the government regulation on cleanliness matter. A man who urinate not at
lavatory, smoke not at smoking room or throw rubbish at the roads should be fined
for instance. Besides dirtying the environment with cigarettes butts, smoking will
also cause pollution and lungs disease to other people.
So bad habits and impolite attitude should be immediately stopped, otherwise the
city will be dirty, unhealthy badly polluted and will never attract foreign or domestic
tourists.

More Dust Bins is Cleaner


....
To improve comfort and cleanliness at the school, there
should be an increasing number of dust bins.


......
When we look at classroom, school corridors and
schoolyard, there papers, mineral water cops, straws, and
napkin everywhere. The condition of unseemliness really
hinders learning and teaching environment. They can be filled
out with water coming from the rain. This can be placed for
mosquito to spread out.



......
Anyway I notice that most of the students have responsibilities
for their school environment. They put their litter on the proper
place but some of them are not diligent enough to find the dust
bins. The numbers of the dust bins in the school are not enough.
More dust bins should be put beside each step, outside of the
classrooms and some along of the corridors. Probably one dust
bin should be in every ten meters. So when students want to
throw away their litters, they can find the dust bins easily.

......
When school is equipped with sufficient dust bins, students do
not have problem of discomfort any more.

There are those who do not approve of the way
rockers dress and behave. Some go further and

Osbourne, a famous rock star,often bit the head
off small animals and drink their blood on the
stage. Many people considered such actions
affiliated with satanism.


Arguments 2
There also occasions where teens commit
suicide after going to a concert or lostening to

many people that rock music, such aseavy metal
and underground music is truly a bad ainfluence.
