2. Packet A
Questions 24-26 refer to someone’s experience.
In 1971, Oprah Gail Winfrey was chosen to attend the White House Conference on Youth in Colorado and
represent Tennessee with one other student. After returning to Nashville, she was interviewed by the radio station
WVOL - the station would later ask her to represent them and participate in a beauty pageant - Miss Fire Prevention.
Oprah would go on to win the competition and was the first African-American to ever win the contest.
After her win, the radio station offered her a chance to hear her voice on tape -- because of her experience
with public speaking; Oprah's skill earned her a part-time position as a newsreader. At 17, Oprah finished out her
senior year on the radio - with a 4 year college scholarship in her future.
24. Why was Oprah in Colorado?
A. To have an interview with the radio station WVOL. C. To accept part-time position as a newsreader.
B. To represent Tennessee in the youth conference. D. To participate in a beauty pageant.
25. … Oprah's skill earned her a part-time position as a newsreader. What is the closest meaning of ‘earned
position’?
A. Get a job. B. Gain profit. C. Spend time. D. Take benefit.

C. In 1988 Oprah Gail Winfrey was chosen to attend the White House Conference on Youth in Colorado
D. She became a newsreader after she was interviewed by a radio station.
Questions 27-28 refer to the following procedure.
One of the first things that is important in being a good employee is job security. Make your job simple
and easy to understand for others. You should be open by contributing your work to others and let others
contribute to yours. Second, follow the rules. If your company's employee conduct rules are oppressive,
fight them formally or follow them while you secretly look for another job, but don't blatantly break them
and get yourself in trouble. Third, don’t be slob. Keep a clean desk, and make sure it has personal items
that have meaning to you. Having a clean organized desk shows that you are clean and organized as an
employee. Fourth, come in early, don’t stay late. Make sure that you are punctual and consistent. Those
two are highly valued by management. Coming in early gives you a head start, staying late means you're
catching up. And finally, it’s obvious that being a good employee means being a good person. You should
be patient, attentive, courteous and reliable.
27. What can be concluded from the text?
A. How to contribute your work. C. How to be a good worker.

31. “... make him look messy” (Sentence 7).The underlined word has a similar meaning to ….
A. Cool B. Neat C. Trendy D. Untidy
USEK SMKN 3 Probolinggo – 2014 Page 4 of 6
I had a chance to see the man face to face when he was running away to the street. The man, at
about forties, has an oval face. His dark brown hair is curly and thick, covering some area of the
forehead, and the hair is not well-shaped. His ears are small and almost hidden inside the thick
hair. Under his heavy eyeglass frames are almond-shaped dark eyes, and the two curved
eyebrows are thin and narrow. He has a large nose and a full-lipped mouth. Bushy sideburns, an
arched moustache and an unshaven face make him look messy. A mole on the right side of his
cheek above, the moustache can be a unique feature for identifying him. His nervous facial
expression, I think, proves that he is the exact one police want.
