Sadiman: The Forest Guardian of Mount Lawu

Sadiman is an inspiring environmental crusader from Gendol Hamlet in Wonogiri, Central Java. For over twenty-five years, he has dedicated his life to healing the parched, eroded hills on the slopes of Mount Lawu. Decades ago, rampant logging and seasonal forest fires left the area bone-dry, forcing villagers to endure severe water shortages and frequent crop failures.

Determined to restore life to the barren hills, Sadiman began planting banyan and rubber trees single-handedly. He recognized that the extensive root networks of banyans act like underground sponges that absorb and retain rainwater. Despite being ridiculed and considered eccentric by some villagers in his early days, Sadiman persisted relentlessly. He even traded his goats and plants to procure more banyan saplings.

Today, Sadiman’s selfless toil has yielded miraculous results. Over 250 hectares of once-barren slopes have transformed into a lush, thriving green canopy. More than a dozen natural freshwater springs have re-emerged, supplying clean water to thousands of homes and irrigating communal rice fields year-round. In recognition of his enduring devotion, Sadiman received the Kalpataru Award and worldwide accolades, demonstrating how one humble individual with unyielding determination can revive an entire ecosystem.

What is the writer’s primary intention in writing the text?

A.  To explain how to trade livestock for tree saplings in markets.

B.  To describe the geographical rock layers of Mount Lawu.

C.  To introduce an inspiring figure who made extraordinary contributions to environmental restoration.

My Semester of Personal Growth

During the beginning of the last academic semester, I decided to initiate a comprehensive self-improvement program to enhance my school balance and well-being. I started by writing a realistic daily schedule, outlining specific blocks of time for revision, hobbies, and family interaction. This simple discipline prevented me from procrastinating before major exams.

To fortify my physical vitality, I adopted regular light exercise, jogging for twenty minutes around the neighbourhood every morning. I also revamped my nutritional habits by substituting sugary boba drinks with infused fruit water and ensuring eight hours of undisturbed sleep every night. Within a month, my sluggishness evaporated, and my cognitive focus during morning classes sharpened tremendously.

Mental health was equally fostered. Whenever feelings of self-doubt emerged, I practiced focused breathing and kept a gratitude diary to document three blessings received each day. Furthermore, I learned to welcome constructive critiques from my teachers without feeling offended. By the end of the term, not only did my academic marks rise, but I also felt more emotionally resilient and confident in facing complex challenges.

What does the text mainly tell us about?

A.  The writer’s journey of adopting healthy routines for self-improvement.

B.  The best jogging tracks in the neighbourhood.

Read the following narrative fable for questions 28 to 31.

The Whispering Willow and the Thirsty Traveler

Once upon a time on the dry plains of Savannah, there grew a magnificent, ancient willow tree beside a drying waterhole. While all other bushes around withered in the scorching summer heat, the willow tree stayed flourishing with emerald leaves and weeping branches. The tree possessed a magical reservoir in its deep roots that produced fresh, sweet water.

One scorching midday, a selfish wanderer arrived. Exhausted and dehydrated, he begged, “O noble tree, allow me to drink from your root spring so I may survive.” The willow gently replied, “You may scoop one pitcher of water to quench your thirst and continue your journey safely.”

The traveler drank greedily. However, when he noticed the clear stream bubbling from the trunk, greed consumed him. “If I chop your bark and open your core, I can take all the magic water and sell it to the distant city!” sneered the wanderer. Ignoring the willow’s pleas, he raised his sharp axe and struck the trunk.

Instantly, instead of gushing water, thousands of prickly, poisonous nettles burst out of the bark, stinging the traveler’s hands and face. Dropping his axe, he cried out in agonizing pain.

Later that evening, a humble shepherd boy passing by heard the cries. Seeing the traveler covered in painful welts, the boy gently washed the wounds with water from his own small canteen and bandaged them with cool medicinal leaves. Ashamed of his own cruelty, the traveler wept and asked for forgiveness.

Witnessing the shepherd’s compassion and the traveler’s sincere remorse, the magical willow softened its branches. The tree produced sweet herbal sap that healed the traveler’s stinging skin completely and granted them both cool water for the rest of their voyage.

Understanding Juvenile Sleep Deprivation

According to data released by the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 70% of high school adolescents worldwide suffer from chronic sleep deprivation, routinely receiving fewer than seven hours of rest per night. Medical standards recommend that growing teenagers obtain between eight and ten hours of sleep to support neurological maturity and hormonal balance.

Sleep-deprived teenagers face heightened vulnerabilities. Academically, chronic exhaustion impairs working memory, decelerates analytical processing, and precipitates plummeting test scores. Physiologically, lack of regenerative sleep suppresses the immune response, leaving students vulnerable to frequent viral infections and metabolic imbalances. Emotionally, sleeplessness exacerbates mood swings, social withdrawal, and clinical anxiety.

A primary driver of this modern crisis is the biological shift known as the “delayed sleep phase,” where adolescent brains release melatonin roughly two hours later than adult brains. Compounding this biological delay is evening blue light radiation emitted by smartphones and laptops, which tricks the pineal gland into perceiving midnight as daylight.

Pediatric sleep specialists advocate establishing a firm “digital sundown” policy: disengaging from all electronic screens at least 60 minutes before bedtime and keeping bedrooms dimly lit, quiet, and temperature-controlled.

After reading the text, teenagers who care about their well-being will most likely ….

A.  play online multiplayer games until 3:00 AM every night

B.  establish a digital sundown routine by turning off screens an hour before sleep

C.  stop sleeping completely during weekends

D.  consume high-caffeine energy drinks immediately before going to bed
