Text 1 (for Soal 1–2)

We are announcing today that we are bringing the Milestone and Ever Green brands even closer together. Effective as of December 5, 2005, our official name will be:

GREEN MILES WEST

The substitution of "West" in our name-replacing "California" - is the result of an agreement we reached with California Gardening Association, following a protest over the original use of "California" in our name. We hope this does not create any confusion among our loyal consumers. While this represents a change from our initial name introduction, it does not change the quality of products we offer to our consumers.


Soal 1

Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

A. The corporate offices were protested

B. The loyal consumers created an official name for the company

C. There was a conflict between Green Miles West and Milestone

D. The quality of products will be different from the former products

E. The name "Green Miles West" will be effective as of December 5, 2005

Answer & Analysis

Correct answer: E

Main reasoning: The passage explicitly states: “Effective as of December 5, 2005, our official name will be: GREEN MILES WEST.” This directly supports option E. The other options add information that is not stated or are contradicted.

Option analysis:

A. Not supported: the protest mentioned is over the use of the word “California” in the name, not a protest of corporate offices.

B. Incorrect: consumers did not create the name; the company announces the official name.

C. Incorrect: the text says Milestone and Ever Green brands are being brought closer together, not in conflict.

D. Contradicted: the text says the change “does not change the quality of products.”

E. Correct: the effective date and the official name are stated directly.

Logic note: A statement quoted directly from the text is \( \gt \) a statement based on assumption.


Soal 2

“... it does not change the quality of the products we offer ...” The underlined word means ...

A. take

B. lose erase

C. alter

D. erase

E. throw

Answer & Analysis

Correct answer: C

Main reasoning: In the sentence, “does not change the quality” means “does not make it different.” The closest synonym is “alter.”

Option analysis:

A. “Take” does not mean change quality.

B. Not a clear synonym; “lose/erase” does not match “change.”

C. Correct: “alter” means change.

D. “Erase” means remove, not change.

E. “Throw” is unrelated.

Logic note: “Change” in meaning “make different” is \( \gt \) “erase/throw” which changes existence, not quality.


Text 2 (for Soal 3)

The table below shows viewing preferences by age group.

Group Cinema Quiz Cartoon News
Teenager \( 50 \% \) \( 20 \% \) \( 20 \% \) \( 10 \% \)
Adult \( 10 \% \) \( 30 \% \) \( 10 \% \) \( 50 \% \)
Children \( 0 \% \) \( 20 \% \) \( 80 \% \) \( 0 \% \)

Soal 3

From the table above we can conclude that ... shows mostly watched by children.

A. quiz

B. news

C. talk

D. cinema

E. cartoon

Answer & Analysis

Correct answer: E

Main reasoning: In the “Children” row, the highest percentage is for “Cartoon,” which is \( 80 \% \). Other categories for children are \( 0 \% \) (Cinema), \( 20 \% \) (Quiz), and \( 0 \% \) (News). Therefore, cartoons are mostly watched by children.

Option analysis:

A. Children watch quiz \( 20 \% \), not the highest.

B. Children watch news \( 0 \% \).

C. “Talk” is not listed in the table.

D. Children watch cinema \( 0 \% \).

E. Correct: children watch cartoons \( 80 \% \), which is \( \gt \) all other categories for children.

Logic note: For children, \( 80 \% \gt 20 \% \gt 0 \% \), so “cartoon” is the most watched.
