Integrated Pest Management
There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculture. Pesticides are commonly used, but this may cause many problems. Combining different management operations is the most effective way to control pests.
Firstly, the chemicals in pesticides may build up as residues in the environment. This reduces the quality of farm products.
As well, pests can become resistant to pesticides gradually. This means that newer and stronger ones have to be developed.
Some pesticides affect non target animals such as fish and bees. This affects the natural balance.
To wipe out agricultural pests completely may be very expensive. Sometimes pest damage costs less than the method of control.
Finally, understanding the ecology of the area helps a lot in pest control. Natural enemies can be used to control a pest. Pesticides that do not affect the natural enemies should be chosen.
Therefore, integrated pest management is a safe and more effective option in agriculture.

Some people call it Brain. Others say Great Britain. Many people mistakenly call the whole country England. But its real name is a mouthful: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That’s why it’s usually just called the United Kingdom, or UK for short.

Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the amazing world of chocolate so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao three. The tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pineapple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds, also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid. It’s pure bitter chocolate.

The United Kingdom
Some people call it Brain. Others say Great Britain. Many people mistakenly call the whole country England. But its real name is a mouthful: the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That’s why it’s usually just called the United Kingdom, or UK for short.
The United Kingdom is a country made up four parts: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. For centuries, it was ruled by kings and queens. The United Kingdom is still a monarchy, although today its power is mostly symbolic.
England is the biggest part. Each past was once ruled separately. London is the capital of the United Kingdom. It’s located in England and it’s the biggest city in Europe. More than 7 million people live there.
When you’re in London, don’t forget to visit Buckingham Palace. This famous palace is the London residence of the British monarch. Guards carefully watch over the place grounds. Tourists enjoy watching the changing of the guards.
The queen now, Queen Elizabeth II, has very little power when compared with the earlier English kings and queens. Today, an elected prime minister and parliament hold most government power. But Elizabeth II is popular with her people. You’ll find her image on very British stamp, banknote, and coin.
The United Kingdom is the birthplace of the English language. Today, English is spoken in more parts of the world than any other language.
English is considered one the world’s richest language. It has more than half a million words! Why so many? Because many different people settled in Britain over the centuries, and each group added their own words.

Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from? In this article we’ll enter the amazing world of chocolate so you can understand exactly what you’re eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao three. The tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pineapple. Inside the fruit are the tree’s seeds, also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed. Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter. All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid. It’s pure bitter chocolate.

a. the cacao tree c. the raw chocolate e. the flavour of chocolate

CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
Pola dasarnya soal – soal tentang conditional hanya berkisar pada tiga ruang lingkup :
Melengkapi , mengartikan suatu conditional , dan membuat conditional berdasarkan fakta / data yang diberikan :

51
Jika yang muncul Cari jawabanya
a. If + Verb 1/ is/am /are will / shall
will /shall if + verb 1 / is /am / are
b. if + V 2 / were would/could/might + verb 1 /( bukan perfective )
would/could/might + Verb 1 / be if + verb 2 / were ( bukan perfective )
c. if + had + Verb 3 /been (perfective ) would/could/ might have verb 3 / been ( perfective )

pernyataan berkontradiksi dengan fakta.

dan pernyataan berkontradiksi denan fakta.
CAUSATIVE
1. Bila kita dihadapkan pada pilihan jawaban yang hanya meminta untuk menentukan bentuk kata kerja , dan di soal kebetulan terdapat kata ’ has/ have/ had ’ maka pergunakan rumus berikut :
52
Have / has / had + orang verb 1
+ benda verb 3
2. Bila kita dihadapkan pada pilihan jawaban yan hampir kesemuanya memiliki kata ‘ have/ has/ had ‘ , lalukita hanya disuruh untuk memilih ‘ have/ has / had’ mana yang benar , inat kita hanya mencari yan berpola sbb :
Have/ has / had + orang + verb 1
Atau
Have/ has / had + benda + verb 3
RELATIVE PRONOUN
Untuk menentukan relative pronoun mana yang tepat , kita tingal lihat kata sebelum dan sesudah titik- titik di soal :
Kata sebelum jawab kata sesudah
1. Orang who to be /modal/ verb ( kata kerja )
2. Orang whom nama orang/ possessive adjective / pronoun
3. Orang whose benda / binatang
4. Benda atau binatang which/that to be / modal / verb / pronoun / nama orang
5. Ket. Tempat where nama orang / pronoun / modal/ veb dll.
MODALS
Rumus 1 ; bila terdapat pilihan jawaban yang searti/ semakna maka dianggap salah karena
Tidak pernah terjadi / terdapat jawaban ganda.
Rumus 2 : Bila soal dinyatakan dalam bentuk lampau , atau mengisyaratkan sesuatu yang sudah
Terjadi, pilihan jawaban dalam pola modal perfective.
Rumus 3 : Bila soal mengisyaratkan sesuatu yang terjadi sekarang , maka hindari pilihan modal
Perfective.
Rumus 4 : Hindari pilihan would + would + have V 3/ been , bila di soal tidak terdapat kata ’ if
Unless, atau ‘ otherwise, karena would have umumnya hanya digunakan untuk pola
Conditional.
53
DERIVATIVES
1. Kata yang paling menentukan dalamsoal derivatives adalah kata setelah titik titik

a. kata kerja ( …d/ed,…..ing )
adverb ( ....ly )

c. article : a/ an / the kata benda

1. Having = setelah ( after )
Having studied English at Express , Tini went home with her friends. =
After she studied English at Express , Tini went home with her friends
2. V-ing ( active participle ) sebagai sub-clause terkandung makna ‘ sedang/ sementara( when

An old friend.
54

Mother was ill, she had had breakfast brought to her room.

+ benda verb 3
2. Bila kita dihadapkan pada pilihan jawaban yan hampir kesemuanya memiliki kata ‘ have/ has/ had ‘ , lalukita hanya disuruh untuk memilih ‘ have/ has / had’ mana yang benar , inat kita hanya mencari yan berpola sbb :
Have/ has / had + orang + verb 1

RELATIVE PRONOUN

Tidak pernah terjadi / terdapat jawaban ganda.

Terjadi, pilihan jawaban dalam pola modal perfective.
Rumus 3 : Bila soal mengisyaratkan sesuatu yang terjadi sekarang , maka hindari pilihan modal
Perfective.
Rumus 4 : Hindari pilihan would + would + have V 3/ been , bila di soal tidak terdapat kata ’ if
