Contoh Soal UTBK SBMPTN Bahasa Inggris
In the 1930s, Chester F. Carlson was working in the patents department of a large electronics firm in New York City. One of the major problems in his work was the length of time and expense involved in getting patents copied, patents were lengthy legal documents, and the only ways to get them copied were to take them to a typist or to take them to a photographer. Either way of copying patents took a lot of time and cost a lot of money. He came up with the idea for a machine that would copy documents quickly and efficiently. He researched the idea in the library and then worked over a three-year period on developing a machine that used a light, an electro statically charged plate, and powder to duplicate images on paper. The result of this work was a machine that produced the first xerographic copy on October 22, 1938. He named the process "Xerox", which means "dry writing". Carlson felt that he had a good idea, one that would be extremely helpful in the business world. He tried to sell his idea to a number of large corporations, but they were not terribly interested in his machine. A few years later he sold the process to a small family-owned company. This small company grew into the giant Xerox Corporation, and both Carlson and Xerox became rather wealthy in the process.

There's growing agreement among exercise researches that the intense physical activities offered by most health clubs is not the only - or even necessarily the best - path to better health. In fact, the best thing most of us can do, say the experts, may be to walk.
Yes, walk. Not run or jog or sprint. Just walk, at a reasonably energetic speed (3 m.p.h-4 m.p.h) for half an hour or so, maybe five or six times a week. You may not feel the benefits all at once, but the evidence suggests that over the long term, a regular walking routine can do a world of preventive good, from lowering your risk of stroke, diabetes and osteoporosis to treating arthritis, high blood pressure and even depression.
Walking, in fact, may be the perfect exercise. For starters, it's one of the safest things you can do with your body. It's much easier on the knees than running and, beyond an occasional stitch in the side, doesn't trigger unpleasant side effects. "Regular physical activities is probably as close to a magic bullet as we will come in modern medicine," says Dr. Joann Manson, chief of preventive medicine at Harvard's Brigham and Women's Hospital. "If everyone in the U.S. were to walk briskly 30 minutes a day, we could cut the incidence of many chronic disease 30% to 40%",
If Americans want to do that, they have a long way to go. Fewer than a third of adults in the US. get the recommended amount of exercise cach day and 40% are almost completely inactive. The result, as reported by the Surgeon General last month: a nation in which obesity may soon overtake cigarette smoking as the leading cause of preventable death.

Education is often viewed as school in a traditional, formal sense. Many people believe that true learning can only take place in a formal classroom setting. Others feel education occurs in many different form and environment. There may not be a definitive answer to the question of, "What is education?" However we start thinking about the purpose of education. Is it to educate youth to be responsible citizen? Is it to developed individual, as well as society, in order to ensure a society's economic success? Or is it to simply focus on developing individual talents and intelegence? Perhaps it is the balance of all three that defines education? While our answers may differ, we can perhaps agree that education is basic human right. When that right is granted growth and development, the society as a whole is more likely to improve in areas such as health, nutrition, general income and living standards, and population fertility rates.
As global citizen it is our responsibility to critically think about the issue and attempt to come up with solution to the problems plaquing education. In 1990 UNESCO launched EFA, the movement to fight quality education for all children, youth, and adult by the year 2015. The unfortunate reality is that for many countries, larger issues come before improving the quality of education. How can we achieve the goal of EFA when numerous counties around the world are faced with challenges that seems far too impossible to overcome? The answer lies in attempting to bridge some of the haps that prevent developing nation to compete with developed nations. One example is that of providing preater access to technology and narrowing the ever widening digital divide. In many ways the most basic access to technology can serve as valuable education tool. Individual who are not afforded this access area a disadvantage when trying to grasp opportunity to make life better for themselves, their families, and their community.

A. There is no exact definition about education
B. Education is a fundamental individual's right
C. Everyone has right to get quality education
D. Education occurs in any place not just schools
E. Development can be gained through education
Jawaban: A
