He spent some time teaching me how to skate, but I didn't learn much. He left me and skated all around. As soon as he left, I fell down. I envied the other people because they could skate very well.

I was bored because I often kept falling so I took off my skates and just walked around on the ice in my shoes. It was cold and my hands were frozen. Suddenly, I stepped on something that was not hard. What was it? It was a weak place in the ice. When I stepped there, I sank under the ice. I thought that I was going to die, but I did my best to grab something to get out from under the ice. I tried to grab the edge of the ice, but it was very difficult for an eleven-year old.

Soal dan Pembahasan UN Bahasa Inggris SMP/MTs - Descriptive

Text 1 for questions no 1 - 4

Venice is a city in northern Italy. It has been known as the “Queen of the Adriatic”, “City of Bridges”, and “The City of Light”. The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy.

Venice is world famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are connected by about 400 bridges. In the old centre, the canals serve the function of roads, and every form of transport is on water or on foot.

You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly used for tourists, or weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by motorised waterbuses which ply regular routes along the major canals and between the city’s islands. The city has many private boats. The only gondolas still in common use by Venetians are the Traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal at certain points without bridges.

A galaxy is a collection of stars and other astronomical bodies, including planets, comets and asteroids, held together by gravity.

There are many different physical forms and measurements of galaxies. These include the spiral, barrel-spiral and elliptical. Our galaxy, called the Milky Way, is approximately 100,000 light years in width and contains over 100 billion stars.

The centre of galaxies can contain many young, very hot stars as well as older stars. Swirling clouds that have been energized by magnetic forces also exist in the centre.

Ginger is a type of tropical plant. It is typically used in a variety of cuisines around the world. It can also be used to add color and flair to gardens and landscapes. The most common type of ginger used in cooking today is Zingiber officinale.

The root of the ginger plant is most often used in cooking. It can be grated, shredded, or even sliced over various items. It is a commonly used ingredient for baking, and is used regularly in cookies, cakes, pies, and other desserts. This plant can also be used as a complementary spice to meats, fish, or even pasta dishes.
