There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculturE. Pesticides which are commonly used may
cause many problems. I think combining different management operations is the most effective
way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up as residues in the environment and in the
soil which absorbs the chemicals. This reduces the quality of farm product.
Secondly, pests can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means that newer and stronger
ones have to be developed.
Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and animals such as fish and bees. This affects
the ecology and environment as well.
So, understanding of ecology of an area helps a lot in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen
and applied carefully so that they don’t affect the ecological balance and environment.
Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option to fight pest in
agriculture and livestock.

I strongly believe that mobile phones are necessary. My reasons for this belief are that these
phones are convenient for business people who travel a lot, and they are handy for emergencies.
To begin with, mobile phones are necessary in the case of emergencies. For instance, if you fall
down a set of stairs in a building and are badly injured and can’t reach a pay phone, it is handy to
have one to use. Or, if your car breaks down in the middle of the night in a strange
neighbourhood, it would be dangerous to leave it in search of a public phone booth.
My other main reason is that mobile phones are convenient for business people. For example, if
you are out of the state or even overseas and you have to contact a client to do some important
work, it is useful to have one to use. By using a mobile phone, important information can be
received. People can’t stay in an office all day waiting for their phone to ring. Some people have
to go and do jobs or they will go out of business. You can even send faxes or messages and use
the internet with your mobile.
In conclusion, I believe that mobile phones have now become a necessary part of every day life.
Instant communication will ensure that information can be passed on with a simple press of a
button. Whether this is to do with business or personal information or emergencies, it goes to
show that they are necessary in the new millennium.

14. How many reasons are used to support the writer’s opinion?

B. Two reasons

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious problem for three
reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimens and
experiments. Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually
used as a disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives.
Of course when it is used for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.
The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This condition makes the
people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use formalin was spread
wide all over the Indonesian regions, and these days it has really happened, the citizen’s bodies
will be badly contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell their products which
contain formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our digestive system
absorbs the substance that should be for the human and animal corpses?
Considering the reasons, we can make a conclusion that the use of formalin and other
preservatives is really a serious problem if it is not resolved immediately.

20. Why is formalin dangerous for human`s body?

A. It is not food preservatives
B. It is a disinfectant for human beings
C. It is used to preserve biological specimens
