A. Today Jakarta has much to offer, ranging from museums, art and antique markets, first class
shopping to accommodations and a wide variety of cultural activities. Jakarta's most famous
landmark, the National Monument or Monas is a 137m obelisk topped with a flame sculpture
coated with 35 kg of gold. Among other places one can mention the National museum that holds
an extensive collection of ethnographic artifacts and relics, the Maritime Museum that exhibits
Indonesia's seafaring traditions, including models of sea going vessels.
B. Sumatra is a paradise for nature lovers, its national parks are the largest in the world, home to
a variety of monkeys, tigers and elephants. Facing the open sea, the western coastline of Sumatra
and the waters surrounding Nias Island have big waves that make them one of the best surfer's
beaches in Indonesia. There are beautiful coral reefs that are ideal for diving. For those who
prefer night dives, the waters of Riau Archipelago offer a rewarding experience with marine
scavengers of the dark waters.
C. Various establishments offer professional pampering service with floral baths, body scrubs,
aromatic oils, massages and meditation; rituals and treatments that use spices and aromatic herbs
to promote physical and mental wellness. Various spa hotels are extremely popular. Indonesians
believe that when treating the body you cure the mind.
D. Jakarta has a distinctly cosmopolitan flavor. Tantalize your taste buds with a gastronomic
spree around the city's many eateries. Like French gourmet dining, exotic Asian cuisine,
American fast food, stylish cafes, restaurants all compete to find a way into your heart through
your stomach. The taste of Indonesia's many cultures can be found in almost any corner of the
city: hot and spicy food from West Sumatra, sweet tastes of Dental Java, the tangy fish dishes of
North Sulawesi.
E. In the face of constant exposure to modernization and foreign influences, the native people
still faithfully cling to their culture and rituals. The pre-Hindu Bali Aga tribe still maintains their
own traditions of architecture, pagan religion, dance and music, such as unique rituals of dances
and gladiator-like battles between youths. On the island of Siberut native tribes have retained
their Neolithic hunter-gathering culture.
F. Whether you are a serious spender or half hearted shopper, there is sure to be something for
everybody in Jakarta. Catering to diverse tastes and pockets, the wide variety of things you can
buy in Jakarta is mind boggling from the best of local handicrafts to haute couture labels.
Modern super and hyper markets, multi-level shopping centers, retail and specialty shops, sell
quality goods at a competitive price. Sidewalk bargains range from tropical blooms of vivid
colors and scents in attractive bouquets to luscious fruits of the seasons.
G. The land's long and rich history can't be separated from the influence of Hinduism,
Buddhism, Islam and Christianity. There is one of the oldest Hindu temples in Java, the majestic
Buddhist 'monastery on the hill', Borobudur, the largest Buddhist monument in the world. About
17 km away from this monastery is a 9th century temple complex built by the San jay a dynasty.
Prambanan complex is dedicated to the Hindu trinity: Ciwa, Vishnu and Brahma. The spread of
Islam also left interesting monuments such as the 15th century Minaret Mosque in Kudus.

6. far from being the whole vocabulary of the language
7. and all this
When I arrived in England I thought I knew English. After I'd been here an hour I realized that I
did not understand one word. In the first week I picked up a tolerable working knowledge of the
language and the next seven years convinced me gradually but thoroughly that
I A _________________ , let alone perfectly. This is sad. My only consolation being that
nobody speaks English perfectly.
Remember that those five hundred words an average Englishman uses
are В _________________. You may learn another five hundred and another five thousand and
yet another fifty thousand and still you may come across a further fifty

Then you have to decide on your accent. The easiest way to give the impression of having a good
accent or no foreign accent at all is to hold an unlit pipe in your mouth, to mutter between your

but they are accustomed to that and they will get a F _________________.

A good night's sleep — an impossible dream?
Tonight, do yourself a favor. Shut off the TV, log off the Internet and unplug the phone. Relax,
take a bath, maybe sip some herbal tea. Then move into the bedroom. Set your alarm clock for a
time no less than eight hours in the future, fluff up your pillows and lay your head down for a
peaceful night of restorative shut-eye. That's what American doctors advise.
American sleep experts are sounding an alarm over America's sleep deficit. They say Americans
are a somnambulant nation, stumbling groggily through their waking hours for lack of sufficient
sleep. They are working longer days — and, increasingly, nights — and they are playing longer,
too, as TV and the Internet expand the range of round-the-clock entertainment options. By some
estimates, Americans are sleeping as much as an hour and a half less per night than they did at
the turn of the century — and the problem is likely to get worse.
The health repercussions of sleep deprivation are not well understood, but sleep researchers point
to ills ranging from heart problems to depression. In a famous experiment conducted at the
University of Chicago in 1988, rats kept from sleeping died after two and a half weeks. People
are not likely to drop dead in the same way, but sleep deprivation may cost them their lives
indirectly, when an exhausted doctor prescribes the wrong dosage or a sleepy driver weaves into
someone's lane.
What irritates sleep experts most is the fact that much sleep deprivation is voluntary. "People
have regarded sleep as a commodity that they could shortchange," says one of them. "It's been
considered a mark of very hard work and upward mobility to get very little sleep. It's a macho
attitude". Slumber scientists hope that attitude will change. They say people have learned to
modify their behavior in terms of lowering their cholesterol and increasing exercise. Doctors also
think people need to be educated that allowing enough time for sleep and taking strategic naps
are the most reliable ways to promote alertness behind the wheel and on the job.
Well, naps would be nice, but at the moment, employers tend to frown on them. And what about
the increasing numbers of people who work at night? Not only must they work while their
bodies' light-activated circadian rhythms tell them to sleep, they also find it tough to get to sleep
after work. Biologists say night workers have a hard time not paying attention to the 9-to-5 day
because of noises or family obligations or that's the only time they can go to the dentist. There
are not too many dentists open at midnight.
As one might imagine, companies are springing up to take advantage of sleeplessness. One of the
companies makes specially designed shift-work lighting systems intended to keep workers alert
around the clock. Shiftwork's theory is that bright light, delivered in a controlled fashion, can
help adjust people's biological clocks. The company president says they are using light like a
medicine. So far, such special lighting has been the province of NASA astronauts and nuclear
power plant workers. He thinks that in the future, such systems may pop up in places like
hospitals and 24-hour credit-card processing centers. Other researchers are experimenting with
everything from welder's goggles (which night workers wear during the day) to human growth
hormones. And, of course, there is always what doctors refer to as "therapeutic caffeine use", but
everyone is already familiar with that.
So, is a good night's sleep an impossible dream for Americans? Maybe so.

There is a tendency to sleep less because
