PEMBAHASAN SOAL PAS 31 -35


This text is for question 31 to 32

Dear Sir,

I understand that my payment is three weeks late, but that does not justify your collections office’s actions. During the past five days I have received three telephone calls and four letters. In addition, one of your representatives has contacted two of my relatives who have nothing to do with my finances. By anyone’s definition this is harassment. I expect you to stop contacting me every day and to stop calling my relatives.
In the meantime, please know that I plan to send you a payment within the next few days. The money will reach your office in about a week.

Sincerely yours

Amitha Bachan

This text is for question 33 to 34

I personally think that reading is a very important activity in our life. Why do I say so? Firstly, by reading we can get a lot of knowledge about many things in the world such as Science, technology. Sports, arts, culture, etc written in either books, magazine, newspaper, etc.

Secondly, by reading we can get a lot of news and information about something happening in any parts of the world which can we see directly.

Another reason, reading can give us pleasure too. When we are tired, we read books, newspaper or magazine on the entertainment coloumn such as comedy, short story, quiz, etc. To make us relaxed.
The last, reading can also take us to other parts of the world. By reading a book about Irian Jaya we may feel we’re really sitting in the jungles not at home in our rooms.

From the facts above, it’s obvious that everyone needs to read to get knowledge, information and also entertainment. Or in summary we can say reading is truly important in our life.
