VISIT PERLIS – the Northern Gem of Malaysia Despite its small size, Perlis has an abundance of attractions that make it a great holiday destination. There are activities for adventurelovers, shopping enthusiasts, or holiday makers in search of a relaxing vacation. If you enjoy nature, then you are in for a treat because Perlis is famous for its natural gems including Perlis State Park, Gunung Perlis, Wang Burma Cave and Bukit Ayer Recreation Park. If you are not familiar with these places, it is best to engage a local guide so that you will be able to enjoy the experience safely. For food lovers, don’t miss out on the local favourites when dining out in Perlis. Seafood is very popular especially in Kuala Perlis where it is close to the sea. Laksa Kuala Perlis is a spicy and sour noodle soup made from fish gravy topped with boiled eggs, cucumber, onion and herbs. For the shopaholics, Perlis is a shopping paradise for bargainhunters with its duty-free complexes and night markets. Popular shopping spots include Emas Kerajang Complex, Padang Besar Arcade and the Wang Kelian Sunday Market. Although Perlis is far up north, it is fairly easy to travel to. The North-South expressway provides easy access from other parts of the country. Visitors can also arrive by rail or by sea. The rail serves two stations in Perlis, which are Arau and Padang Besar. Once you are in Perlis, the small size of the state makes getting around in Perlis fairly easy and convenient. The Kangar Bus Station in Jalan Bukit Lagi offers regular shuttle services to towns. Taxis are another convenient way to get around the state. RCB.Ing_U2_vim3p(2023).indd 101 20/3/2023 10:28:27 AM PENERBIT ILMU BAKTI SDN. BHD.

He was just too excited. 1 G He had packed his backpack two days ago. There was a long list of things that he had to bring along such as a sleeping bag, torchlight, matches, chocolates, and not forgetting mosquito repellents and ointments. About 7.30 am the next morning, Nashwa and his friends arrived in their school bus at the foothills of Gunung Kelawar, which was famous for its many myths and also beautiful camping spots. 2 A They were accompanied by three scoutmasters and a guide called Benja, who was an Orang Asli. Before Nashwa and his friends started their hike, they went to the ranger’s office to register. After that, they set off on their journey. 3 D Benja showed them various edible wild plants and told them to ‘respect the jungle’. Two hours later, they reached a waterfall and it was the perfect spot to set up their tents. By the time they completed the task, it was time for lunch. Benja showed them how to gather firewood and to light up a fire. He made a makeshift stand over the fire and hung a pot of water from the waterfall to boil. 4 H Nashwa and his friends had so much fun swimming in the icy water.

Benja talked about jungle survival skills and told them a few mystical stories about Gunung Kelawar. Some were spine-chilling and a few of them kept looking behind their backs at the dark jungle. By 10.30 pm, it was bedtime. However, Nashwa and some of his friends could not sleep so they chatted quietly until the wee hours of the morning. A There were twenty of them and they were all in their Scout’s uniform. B In the evening, their scoutmaster took them exploring around the campsite. C The boys ate their lunch hungrily. D It was a wonderfully cool morning. E The night was cold and dark. F After dinner, Nashwa and his friends lit a huge campfire. G This would be his first camping trip. H While waiting for the rice to be cooked, the boys went for a quick swim in the waterfall. RCB.Ing_U2_vim3p(2023).indd 106 20/3/2023 10:28:28 AM PENERBIT ILMU BAKTI SDN. BHD.
107 Reading Unit 2 Answer and Analysis No Answer Analysis 1 G The sentence before talks about Nashwa’s feeling of excitement therefore we know he is anticipating an event. 2 A The sentence after states who follows the boys on the trip which suggests that the sentence before must logically talk about Nashwa and his friends. 3 D The most logical sentence to start the paragraph as it is followed with what happens during the hike. 4 H The sentence before talks about preparing lunch and the sentence after is about swimming. Therefore, this must be the logical answer. 5 B The sentence after talks about gathering wood therefore the boys must around the campsite. 6 F The sentence after mentions that everyone sat around ‘it’. It must refer to the campfire. RCB.Ing_U2_vim3p(2023).indd 107 20/3/2023 10:28:28 AM PENERBIT ILMU BAKTI SDN. BHD.

The Rising Trend of Mobile Messaging Apps Mobile messaging apps are fast becoming the most popular form of communication among young people. Parents do not have to spend a fortune on their children’s phone bills as most of the apps are free of charge! The messages are sent instantly, therefore users find it almost the same as ‘talking face to face’. Aside from personal messages, users can also create group chats where one can chat with multiple people at the same time. Sharing photos and videos is also easier via mobile messaging apps. However, due to its attractive features and rising popularity, parents are growing more and more concerned. Many complain that their children tend to spend more time chatting on mobile phones and less time communicating in the real world. The kids are also easily distracted and find it difficult to focus on schoolwork. In terms of language, most teens use abbreviations and slang for faster communication. This leads to the growing ignorance of proper grammar, spelling and punctuation. Virus can also easily spread via messaging, so an anti-virus software needs to be installed as a precaution.

Mobile phones are convenient and are especially useful in emergencies. However, the calls from mobile phones can be expensive. Here are some tips to help you keep your bills low, so that your parents won’t hit the roof and you don’t have to spend more than half of your pocket money paying the bills. Try not to make too many calls to landline numbers using your mobile phone. Use the house phone instead. Making calls from a landline is a lot cheaper. Keep your SMS chats to a minimum. SMS might cost only a few cents but they do add up as some text messages can be lengthy. If you are using a smartphone, try using free mobile messaging apps such as WhatsApp or WeChat instead. Make calls during off-peak hours whenever possible. Service providers usually offer cheaper rates after office hours and on weekends. Avoid calling 1-800 numbers using your mobile phone. If you use a mobile phone to make these calls, you will have to pay mobile phone charges. Toll-free calls are only free when dialled from a landline. Try to check your voicemail only when you have access to a phone with a landline connection. Remember, mobile phone charges are not cheap. Learn to use your phone wisely and you will not have to foot unnecessary mobile call charges. RCB.Ing_UASA Tingkatan3_vim3p(2023).indd 315 20/3/2023 10:42:20 AM PENERBIT ILMU BAKTI SDN. BHD.

Today is a perfect day to have a gathering. It is Najwa’s birthday so Amira wants to give her a surprise birthday party. 36 She has also ordered a big chocolate cake with 24 candles. When everything is ready, Amira tells her sister that they are going out for lunch. “Where are we going?” asks Najwa. “It’s a secret, but I know you are going to love it! Now go and wear something nice,” says Amira in excitement. 37 “It’s a secret.” As it is Amira’s first time going to the restaurant, she has some difficulty finding the location. 38 “Where is this place?” complains Najwa. “Do we really have to go? I’m hungry. Let’s just call it off and go for lunch on our own.” “We can’t. Everyone is waiting for us,” mutters Amira as she studies the location on her GPS. “Why would anyone wait for us? Where are we going? What’s going on?” The more suspicious Najwa becomes, the more she would not stop talking. 39 Finally, the sisters arrive at the restaurant. Fortunately, their friends are still there. “Surprise!” they call out as soon as they see the girls. 40 “Err ... thanks.

Last week, I attended a Young Inventors’ Workshop. It was fun and informative. First, there was a talk about famous inventions. Then, we worked in groups to come up with a simple invention. We decided to invent a lamp powered by saltwater. We had a lot of fun experimenting and it really worked. The panel of judges thought our idea was creative and awarded us the first prize. I hope I would be able to participate in more of such workshops in future. Well, hope to hear from you soon.
