Soal 18
What is the text about?
A. Wisma Emha
B. A job vacancy
C. An senior secretary
D. An application letter
E. PT. Citra Energy Development
Answer & Analysis
Correct Answer: B
Why B is correct: The text is clearly a recruitment advertisement: “We … are looking for … A SENIOR SECRETARY,” followed by requirements and instructions to submit an application within a deadline. That structure is a job vacancy announcement.
A Incorrect. “Wisma Emha” is only the address/place, not the topic.
B Correct. The main purpose is announcing a job opening.
C Incorrect as the main idea. “A senior secretary” is the position offered, but the text as a whole is about the vacancy announcement, not describing the person in detail.
D Incorrect. This is not an application letter; it tells people to submit one.
E Incorrect. The company name is included as the recruiter, but the text’s topic is the vacancy itself.
Soal 19
The following are the requirements asked, EXCEPT …
A. Five years experience
B. Able to operate a computer
C. Able to speak and write in English
D. A graduated from a reputable university
E. Application letter should be sent ten days after this ads.
Answer & Analysis
Correct Answer: E
Why E is correct (the EXCEPT choice): Options A–D match the listed requirements (education, work experience, English ability, computer literacy). Option E is not a “requirement/qualification”; it is a submission deadline instruction (“not more than 10 days after this ads”). So it does not belong to the requirements list.
A Not the answer. The text states “Min. 5 years of work experience.”
B Not the answer. The text requires “Computer literate (min Word, Excel, Internet).”
C Not the answer. The text requires “Good command of English (oral & written).”
D Not the answer. The text requires “graduated from a reputable university.”
E Correct (EXCEPT). This is about when to send the application, not a candidate qualification.
Read the text for questions 20 to 22.
Petroleum products, such as gasoline, kerosene, home heating oil, residual fuel oil and lubricating oils, come from one source. Crude oil is found below the earth surface, as well as under large bodies of water, from a few hundred feet below the surface to as deep as 25.000 feet into the earth interior. Crude oil is obtained by drilling a hole through the earth, but sometimes more dry holes are drilled than those producing oil. Pressure at the source, or pumping, forces the crude oil to the surface.
Crude oil wells flow at varying rates, from ten to thousands of barrels per hour. Petroleum products vary greatly in physical appearance: thin, thick, transparent, or opaque. Their chemical compositions are made up of only two elements: carbon and hydrogen, which form compounds called hydrocarbons. Other chemical found in the union with the hydrocarbons are few and are classified as impurities. Trace elements are also found, but these are of such minute quantities that they are disregarded.
The various petroleum products are refined from the crude oil by heating and condensing the vapors of crude oil. These products are called light oils such as gasoline, kerosene, and distillate oil.
Soal 20
The best title of the text is ...
A. Petroleum Products
B. Crude Oil Products
C. Petroleum Processing
D. Processing Petroleum Products.
E. Petroleum Chemical Compositing.
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: A
Main reasoning: The passage explains petroleum products broadly: their source (crude oil), where crude oil is found, how it is obtained, how petroleum products differ in appearance and composition, and how they are refined into products like gasoline and kerosene. A general title that covers all these points is “Petroleum Products.”
Option analysis:
A. Correct: broad enough to include source, properties, and refining into multiple products.
B. Too narrow: the text is not only about “products of crude oil” as a list; it includes where crude oil is found and how it is obtained/refined.
C. Too narrow: the text includes processing, but also explains composition and properties, not only processing steps.
D. Not the best: focuses on “processing,” while the first paragraphs explain source and characteristics too.
E. Incorrect/awkward and too specific: the text mentions composition, but it is not the only focus, and the title wording is unnatural.
Logic note: A title must cover all paragraphs; a broad title is \( \gt \) a title that covers only one part.
Soal 21
“... but these are of such minute quantities.” (paragraph \( 2 \)) The antonym of the underlined word is ...
A. big
B. wide
C. broad
D. plain
E. apparent
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: A
Main reasoning: In the phrase “minute quantities,” the word “minute” means “very small.” The opposite of “very small” is “big” (or large). Therefore, option A is the correct antonym.
Option analysis:
A. Correct: “big” is the clearest opposite of “minute” meaning very small.
B. “Wide” relates to width, not size/amount directly.
C. “Broad” relates to width/extent, not the direct opposite of “minute quantities.”
D. “Plain” relates to clarity/simplicity, not quantity.
E. “Apparent” relates to visibility, not size/amount.
Logic note: “Minute” = very small, so the opposite is size \( \gt \) unrelated qualities like visibility or width.
Soal 22
The second paragraph is mainly about ...
A. the products of crude oil
B. the elements of crude oil
C. the impurities of crude oil
D. the physical appearance of crude oil
E. the chemical compositions of crude oil
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: E
Main reasoning: The second paragraph mentions flow rates and physical appearance, but the largest and most detailed part explains the chemical composition: crude oil is mainly carbon and hydrogen forming hydrocarbons, with a few other chemicals as impurities and trace elements in minute quantities. This makes the main focus the chemical composition.
Option analysis:
A. Not main: the paragraph does not list refined products; that appears more clearly in paragraph \( 3 \).
B. Partly included (carbon and hydrogen), but the paragraph goes beyond elements to composition as hydrocarbons plus impurities/trace elements.
C. Mentioned, but only as a smaller part within the explanation of overall composition.
D. Mentioned briefly (thin, thick, transparent, opaque), but not developed as much as chemical composition.
E. Correct: it explains what crude oil is made of (hydrocarbons, impurities, trace elements).
Logic note: The most developed idea in the paragraph is \( \gt \) the briefly mentioned ideas.
