English Form 4 Unit 3 SOW: Lesson 39 Literature in Action LS 5.1.2 Non-Textbook-Based Lesson Worksheet 1 Read the excerpt below from the novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne. Then, answer the questions that follow. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea From Chapter XLVI, Captain Nemoʼs Last Words The Canadian paused in his work. But one word twenty times repeated, one dreadful word, told me the reason for the agitation spreading aboard the Nautilus. We weren�t the cause of the crew�s concern. �Maelstrom! Maelstrom!� they were shouting. The Maelstrom! Could a more frightening name have rung in our ears under more frightening circumstances? Were we lying in the dangerous waterways off the Norwegian coast? Was the Nautilus being dragged into this whirlpool just as the skiff was about to detach from its plating? As you know, at the turn of the tide, the waters confined between the Varrö and Lofoten Islands rush out with irresistible violence. They form a vortex from which no ship has ever been able to escape. Monstrous waves race together from every point of the horizon. They form a whirlpool aptly called �the ocean�s navel�, whose attracting power extends a distance of fifteen kilometres. It can suck down not only ships but whales, and even polar bears from the northernmost regions. This was where the Nautilus had been sent accidentally — or perhaps deliberately — by its captain. It was sweeping around in a spiral whose radius kept growing smaller and smaller. The skiff, still attached to the ship�s plating, was likewise carried around at dizzying speed. I could feel us whirling. I was experiencing that accompanying nausea that follows such continuous spinning motions. We were in dread, in the last stages of sheer horror, our blood frozen in our veins, our nerves numb, drenched in cold sweat as if from the throes of dying! And what a noise around our frail skiff! What roars echoing from several miles away! What crashes from the waters breaking against sharp rocks on the sea floor, where the hardest objects are smashed, where tree trunks are worn down and worked into �a shaggy fur�, as Norwegians express it! What a predicament! We were rocking frightfully. The Nautilus defended itself like a human being. Its steel muscles were cracking. Sometimes it stood on end, the three of us along with it! �We�ve got to hold on tight,� Ned said, �and screw the nuts down again! If we can stay attached to the Nautilus, we can still make it . . . !� He hadn�t finished speaking when a cracking sound occurred. The nuts gave way, and ripped out of its socket, the skiff was hurled like a stone from a sling into the midst of the vortex. My head struck against an iron timber, and with this violent shock I lost consciousness. From Chapter XLVII, Conclusion We come to the conclusion of this voyage under the seas. What happened that night, how the skiff escaped from the Maelstrom�s fearsome eddies, how Ned Land, Conseil, and I got out of that whirlpool, I�m unable to say. But when I regained consciousness, I was lying in a fisherman�s hut on one of the Lofoten Islands. My two companions, safe and sound, were at my bedside clasping my hands. We embraced each other heartily. Just now we can�t even dream of returning to France. Travel between upper Norway and the south is limited. So I have to wait for the arrival of a steamboat that provides bimonthly service from North Cape. So it is here, among these gallant people who have taken us in, that I�m reviewing my narrative of these adventures. It is accurate. Not a fact has been omitted, not a detail has been exaggerated. It�s the faithful record of this inconceivable expedition into an element now beyond human reach, but where progress will someday make great inroads. Will anyone believe me? I don�t know. Ultimately it�s unimportant. What I can now assert is that I�ve earned the right to speak of these seas, beneath which in less than ten months, I�ve cleared 20,000 leagues in this underwater tour of the world that has shown me so many wonders across the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the southernmost and northernmost seas! 31 CONTOH


English Form 4 Unit 3 But what happened to the Nautilus? Did it withstand the Maelstrom�s clutches? Is Captain Nemo alive? Is he still under the ocean pursuing his frightful programme of revenge, or did he stop after that latest mass execution? Will the waves someday deliver that manuscript that contains his full life story? Will I finally learn the man�s name? Will the nationality of the stricken warship tell us the nationality of Captain Nemo? I hope so. I likewise hope that his powerful submersible has defeated the sea inside its most dreadful whirlpool, that the Nautilus has survived where so many ships have perished! 1 (a) Why were the crew members aboard the Nautilus agitated? (b) Where were the author and his friends at that time? What do you think they were doing? 2 Why were the sailors afraid of the maelstrom? 3 What were the author and his companions feeling as their skiff was being sucked into the maelstrom? 4 (a) They were trying to screw the nuts down and stay attached to the Nautilus in a desperate attempt to stay alive. What happened after that? (b) Do you think what happened in (a) above saved their lives? 5 Where did the three friends find themselves when they regained consciousness? Why couldn�t they return to France immediately? 6 �Will anyone believe me?� Why do you think the author said this about his adventures? LS 5.1.2 PL 1 2 3 4 5 6 They had noticed a maelstrom and the submersible Nautilus was being dragged towards it. They were in a skiff attached to the plating of the Nautilus. The three friends were probably trying to get away from the Nautilus and Captain Nemo. The nuts gave way, and ripped out of its socket, the skiff was hurled like a stone from a sling into the middle of the whirlpool. The author�s head struck against an iron timber and lost consciousness. Yes, I think so. When the nuts broke, they were flung out of the vortex, otherwise they would have been sucked into the maelstrom too. The waters between the Varrö and Lofoten Islands rush out violently to form a vortex or whirlpool, into which ships, whales and polar bears have been sucked down. The sailors would surely die if caught in its force. They were feeling dizzy from whirling around, and utterly horrified, their blood frozen in their veins, their nerves numb, drenched in cold sweat as if from the throes of dying. They were in a fisherman�s hut on one of the Lofoten Islands. As travel between upper Norway and the south was limited, they couldn�t return to France immediately. In less than ten months, he had cleared 20,000 leagues in this underwater tour of the world that had shown him so many wonders across the Pacific, the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, the Mediterranean, the Atlantic, the southernmost and northernmost seas – something that no one else had done. Thus, people may not believe what he was writing down. 32 CONTOH


SOW: Lesson 40 Reading LS 3.1.2 LS 2.1.1 Student's Book pp. 51 - 53 Worksheet 1 a Discuss. • Have you heard of K-pop? Which country does it originate from? Yes. It originates from Korea. • Find out what the term represents. K-pop is the term representing South Korea�s music culture. Even though the name emphasises pop music, it is, in fact, an umbrella term for all of South Korea�s diverse musical roots – pop, ballad, R&B, rock, country, hip-hop, reggae and so much more. b Read the text and choose a suitable title for it from the list given below. a The history of K-pop b The influence of K-pop on youth c The beginning of pop culture in Korea d The influence of western culture on K-pop c Read the text and answer the questions that follow. The Western world remained ignorant of Korean music until the late 19th century when they made their way into Asian countries to colonise them. They oppressed and forced their own ideals on the Asians, including their music culture. But it was only in the 1990s that Korea finally refined their music and produced musical pieces that we now know of as K-pop. Indeed, the Seo Taiji and Boys from the year 1992 can be said to be one of the first boy groups to have been popularised. And then, the era of reshaping the Korean music culture and experimenting with foreign musical elements began. The boy band H.O.T. in 1996 brought about the ‘idol’ culture and became famous among the masses, creating a separate fandom for themselves. The 2000s saw the boom in popularity of K-pop worldwide. Around 2015, K-pop groups such as EXO, Blackpink and BTS widened their fan base internationally by including English, Japanese, Chinese and other versions of their songs in their albums. Some went ahead and promoted their albums on international chat shows and other platforms. The culture has positive influences on the youthful section of the society, being the main fans of K-pop. Youths actively support their favourite groups by buying their merchandise, organising fan festivals and even participating in promotional events organised by the entertainment agencies. This instils a sense of team spirit in them. Mingling with like-minded people from different social groups makes them more open-minded and accepting, even in their lives outside of K-pop. They exchange their views, talk about their own culture and learn about others’. They are more confident in expressing themselves and their culture, as well as accepting others’. This knowledge also comes in handy when they start working for multinational organisations. Most of the K-pop stans condemn racism and even educate the people around them. The recent Black Lives Movement has proved the active participation and support the K-pop community exhibits towards events outside their area of interest. Many fans urged their idols and agencies to use their presence to support the cause. They used their influence on social media, putting aside the fan wars to voice the plight of black people. K-pop has contributed tremendously to the South Korea’s economy, too. People have been extremely curious about the country, and their tourism industry is at an all-time high, with people coming to the country as tourists, exchange students and even job seekers. The Korean government has even appointed the K-pop group EXO as honorary ambassadors of the country. Korean culture, traditions and lifestyle have been positively showcased and people are charmed by this wonderful country. 4 Unit Being a teen Theme People and Culture For educational purposes only Digital Resource 13: Video 33 CONTOH


English Form 4 Unit 4 K-pop has been a healing salve for its fans for years and a gateway from their busy lives. The Korean songs have been praised for having uplifting messages. Due to the strict censorship and cultural values in South Korea, the songs and lyrics refrain from the use of profanity, indecent language and crude content from being displayed. K-pop is not only famous for its exhilarating music, but also for its hyper-creative choreographies. Dance enthusiasts all over the world love to learn and recreate their own version of steps for their favourite songs. The songs are also used for dance classes and even professional dancers find them very challenging and fun. But there is always a dark side to everything. K-pop, for all its fun and games, sometimes proves to be highly problematic. Through the years, various K-pop groups and idols have been accused of appropriating the ‘Black’ culture. Artistes have been found wearing specific clothes or hairstyles that hold sentimental value to different cultures to add ‘flavour’ in their videos. Some underdog artistes have even accused K-pop artistes of stealing their art without due credit. Korean entertainment agencies have also been accused of treating their artistes cruelly and degradingly. The young trainees are put under a lot of pressure physically and mentally. Girls are especially forced to maintain their public image and hide their real selves. They should act all cheery and bubbly in front of the crowd. Girls and boys alike are made to project an almost unrealistic and godly image to their fans. This corrupts the minds of young teens who are not confident about their own bodies, leading to depression, inferiority complex and eating disorders. Various artistes have succumbed to the pressure and either left the industry for good, developed mental disorders or even committed suicide. The social media, which is one of the most impactful tools our generation has in their hands, is often misused by K-pop fans. The national and international fans interact with each other, but malicious rumours are spread about artistes through those interactions. Some are so invested in K-pop that sometimes they take the wins and losses of their artistes personally. They bash the rival artistes and some resort to stalking and sending death threats to K-pop artistes. Finally, K-pop stans have also been found to have an unhealthy obsession towards their idol’s personal lives. Artistes spend almost 2/3rd of their days in front of the cameras and so want to keep their personal lives private. But obsessed fans, also known as sasaengs, go to extreme ends to invade their privacy. They stalk them to ferret out their personal details like addresses, family information and their pasts, and spread these details on social media for momentary attention. The artistes are then left to deal with whatever backlash it might bring. This has made artistes sceptical about being open with their relationships. K-pop is a magnificent form of art. Like all other art forms, it was cultivated as a means of self-expression and bringing out the beauty of the Korean culture. So you better get a grip because K-pop is here, and it is here to stay.

These events have not happened yet, but will happen sometime in the future. We use ‘will’ to express a decision that we make spontaneously in the present moment. Examples: • (The phone rings) I’ll answer it. • Is it midnight already? I think I will go to bed now. We can use ‘be going to’ to make predictions based on opinions or to make assumptions about the future based on something that is happening now. Example: • The clouds are coming out. It is going to rain.

English Form 4 Unit 4 Worksheet 1 Level of Difficulty ZZZ HOTS Creating Is it better to learn more than one language in our multiracial society? Discuss. LS 4.1.5 PL 1 2 3 4 5 6 (Suggested answer) There is nothing wrong in learning more than one language, especially in a society like ours comprising Malays, Chinese, Indians and others. Contrary to what some societies believe, the vast majority of the world’s population is either bilingual or multilingual. With over 5 000 distinct languages spoken around the world, numerous words are ‘borrowed’ by different languages to create a global definition of specific names, nouns or descriptions. In many ways, each person is multilingual in some ways. In Malaysia, most of us are bilingual as the medium of instruction is Malay and we learn a second language, English, at school. Children from non-Malay backgrounds have an added advantage of knowing their own mother tongue, which they speak at home. There are several advantages to why it is better to know more than one language. The first reason is simple: the more languages you know, the more people you can communicate with, whether you are moving to a new country, attending an international school or using social media. Knowing another language will let you make new friends and share ideas and viewpoints with people you may have never met if you only stick with people speaking only your mother tongue. Gaining different perspectives and learning new ways of thinking from people of other cultures is an incredibly valuable part of knowing multiple languages. Secondly, it increases your job opportunities. There is nothing more disappointing than finding an advertisement for a job that would be perfect for you, only to realise you don’t meet the language requirements. By simply knowing more than one language, you will open the door to new job opportunities. In fact, staffing agents read thousands of résumés per year and bilingual applicants are routinely at the top of the pile. Seeing ‘fluent’ on a résumé piques the interest of employers, and shows that a candidate ‘is smart and skilled with languages’. This makes employers hire bilingual or multilingual job seekers more often than not – even if language skills have nothing to do with the job. Besides, some studies have shown that bilingual employees are more likely to be promoted, and often earn more money than staff members who only know one language. Thirdly, learning a new language, and then actually using it, involves a lot of creative thinking. If you don’t know how to say something in your target language, you’ll have to think of another way to get your idea across, like using actions or imaginative descriptions. In addition, people who know a second language are often better at coming up with creative solutions to problems. Lastly, by learning a new language actually improves your brain function. There is powerful evidence that language learning actually increases your grey matter, improving your ability to remember, reason and solve problems. Learning a language helps preserve your brain’s white matter as well, meaning you can process information faster. Besides, by learning a new language, you can even help slow down dementia as you age. So if you know more than one language, you can imagine how it will help your mental health! Now let us see the disadvantages of learning a foreign language. In some cases, especially for younger people, learning a second language comes at the cost of ignoring your first. For example, if you have moved to a new place and you have to communicate in a different language most of the time, except maybe at home, you might end up neglecting your first language. Since language is strongly connected to your cultural identity, this might result in a feeling that you don’t have much connection to your culture anymore. For some people, it can be difficult to let your true personality shine through when you communicate in a second language. This is especially hard when your skills are still developing, because you don’t have the vocabulary to express yourself as you would in your first language. This means you might not be able to show how truly clever, funny or caring you really are. Even advanced speakers can face this personality challenge. This is because languages are all so unique. For instance, your first language might have expressions or ideas that have developed from your country’s history and shared culture. Their concepts and phrases may not exist in your second language, making it hard to say what you really mean when you are speaking to people who come from a different background. Thirdly, learning another language that is not in your syllabus might be expensive and time-consuming. You might need extra classes or private tuition if need to get good grades in the language. Your child’s schedule is full enough having to offer 9 to 10 subjects at SPM level, so unless your child is gifted with languages, it is pushing your child to the limits. Considering both sides, I still think that knowing more than one language is more advantageous, especially in our country. If say, you are a doctor and a patient who can only speak Tamil or Mandarin, comes to see you, wouldn’t it be better if you can speak his language a little? Thus, despite the drawbacks, you have so much to gain by speaking more than one language. This quote by Ludwig Wittgenstein sums it up best: ‘The limits of my language mean the limits of my world.’ 41 CONTOH


English Form 4 Unit 4 SOW: Lesson 52 Literature in Action LS 5.1.2 Non-Textbook-Based Lesson Worksheet 1 Read the poem The Living Photograph below and answer the questions that follow. The Living Photograph by Jackie Kay My small grandmother is tall there, straight-back, white broderie anglaise shirt, pleated skirt, flat shoes, grey bun, a kind, old smile round her eyes. Her big hand holds mine, white hand in black hand. Her sharp blue eyes look her own death in the eye. It was true after all; that look. My tall grandmother became small. Her back round and hunched. Her soup forgot to boil. She went to the awful place grandmothers go. Somewhere unknown, unthinkable. But there she is still, in the photo with me at three, the crinkled smile is still living, breathing. (a) Why does the poet say her grandmother is ‘tall’ in the photograph? HOTS Analysing (b) It was true after all; that look. What ‘look’ is the poet referring to? (c) How did the grandmother behave when she became much older? (d) But there she is still, in the photo with me at three, the crinkled smile is still living, breathing. Explain in your own words the last stanza. HOTS Evaluating LS 5.1.2 PL 1 2 3 4 5 6 From the viewpoint of a three-year-old, she looks tall comparatively./ She is taller here as she was still standing straight, long before she became stooped and bent with age. The way her sharp blue eyes seem to be staring at her own death as though expecting it. She forgot to cook and would lapse into silence, going into an imaginary world that was strange and frightening to others, especially small children. In the photograph, the personaʼs grandmother will forever be alive. She is still there, holding the hand of her three-year-old granddaughter, with her smile looking so alive and real. In fact, the memory of her grandmother is caught and kept alive in the photograph. Digital Resource 16: Reading Partner 42 CONTOH

In mid-January 1912, 43-year-old Royal Navy officer and British explorer, Robert Falcon Scott, was nearly 800 miles into a journey to one of the last unexplored places on the globe – the geographic South Pole. Scott’s five-man party had already endured brushes with blizzards and frostbite during their trek and were now less than 80 miles from the finishing line. Would they be the first group of men in history to reach the South Pole, or the second? Over a year earlier, Scott’s ship Terra Nova had reached Ross Island in Antarctica’s McMurdo Sound. His 34-man shore party was tasked with conducting scientific research and collecting wildlife and rock samples, but Scott was also determined to make a run at the Pole. He had vowed ‘to reach the South Pole and to secure for the British Empire the honour of this achievement’. Scott’s mission was made all the more urgent by the knowledge that another explorer, 39-year-old Norwegian Roald Amundsen, was seeking the Pole, too. He had been to Antarctica in the late 19th century, and later became the first man in history to sail the treacherous Northwest Passage linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. In 1909, Amundsen had announced a new expedition to navigate the ice floeriddled waters of the Arctic to the North Pole. But when American explorers, Frederick Cook and Robert Peary, beat him to the punch, he secretly changed his plans. Without telling his financial backers, or even his own crewmen at first, he steered his ship Fram towards Antarctica, bent on reaching the South Pole. Before arriving, he wrote to Scott, who was still outfitting his own expedition in Australia. It read simply: ‘Beg leave to inform you, Fram proceeding Antarctic. Amundsen.’ The Norwegian expedition had a few clear advantages in this ‘race for the South Pole’. Amundsen set up his camp on the Ross Ice Shelf in the Bay of Whales, which was over sixty miles closer to the Pole than Scott’s home base in McMurdo Sound. Unlike Scott, whose expedition was burdened by its scientific obligations, Amundsen was focused only on reaching the Pole and returning safely. Both expeditions spent the early part of 1911 laying down advance caches of food and supplies for their polar journeys, and then took shelter and spent several months waiting out the dark and frigid Antarctic winter. Amundsen tried to get a head start by beginning his journey early in September 1911, but was forced to turn back after temperatures dipped to 68 degrees below zero. Finally, on October 20, 1911, conditions improved enough for his five-man team to leave for the Pole. Scott got under way just a few days later on November 1. Both explorers relied on different forms of transport during their journeys. Scott employed a combination of sled dogs, Manchurian ponies and even a few motorised tractors. The machines quickly broke down, however, and his ponies grew weak in the cold and had to be shot. After sending the dogs back to camp, he and his team were forced to spend much of their journey man-hauling their heavy supply sledges on foot. Amundsen, meanwhile, relied solely on skis and sled dogs to cross the tundra. The dogs helped his men save their strength, and they later killed the weakest of the animals to supplement their food supply. The speed of his dog teams helped Amundsen’s party to race towards the Pole at a pace of over 20 miles per day. The Norwegians took an untested route through a frozen maze of crevasses, mountains and glaciers, and by early December, they had penetrated farther into the heart of Antarctica than anyone in history. Finally, on December 14, 1911, they arrived at the South Pole, where they planted the Norwegian flag, smoked celebratory cigars and posed for snapshots. After a few days, they began the tough trek back to their base camp. Over a month later on January 17, 1912, Scott and his weary British team finally reached the Pole. To their dismay, they spotted the remnants of Amundsen’s camp just as they were approaching. But their troubles were only beginning. The British team had reached their destination late in the Antarctic summer, and temperatures were dropping rapidly. They began the slow slog north, but exhaustion, frostbite and malnourishment soon took a toll. On February 17 – more than 20 days after Amundsen’s group had returned to their base camp, Edgar Evans became the first of the British party to die. A month later, Lawrence Oates sacrificed himself in a blizzard to avoid slowing down the team. 5 Unit Globetrotting Theme People and Culture For educational purposes only Digital Resource 17: Documentary 43 CONTOH


English Form 4 Unit 5 Scott, Dr Edward Wilson and Henry Bowers gamely continued the journey for another few days, but temperatures continued to plunge. They were caught in a blizzard only 11 miles away from one of their supply depots. All three perished in their tent just days later. By the time the bodies of Scott, Wilson and Bowers were found later that November, Roald Amundsen had already returned home in triumph and embarked on a lecture tour. Despite having won the race without losing a single man, he was in many ways overshadowed by Scott, whose doomed march had made him a hero in his native Britain. Undeterred, Amundsen continued his wandering and exploration of the North Pole. He died in 1926 in a plane crash while searching for a missing explorer over Norway’s Svalbard archipelago. Explorers continued to venture to Antarctica in the years after Amundsen and Scott’s legendary race, but it was not until 1956 that an expedition once again stood on the South Pole. The world’s southernmost point has been continuously inhabited ever since, and its two earliest pioneers are now honoured in the name of its permanent research facility: the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station.

LS 4.1.2 PL 1 2 3 4 5 6 (Suggested answer) The first thing that you notice about a burning house is not that it is burning, but that it is burning with such intensity. I stood watching the house across the street as fire engulfed it from all sides. The roof was burning, the doors and windows were burning, and huge flames were blazing upwards fiercely. It seemed as if a firebreathing dragon was inside the house, puffing away viciously. The flames were still burning deep red and amber, as firefighters battled to put out the fire. Fortunately, the whole family had gone out for dinner. There was no one inside the house. I shook my head sadly. Nothing inside was likely to survive the fire, I thought as I watched some flames flicking up in the air with the wind, and finding nothing but air, disappearing into the windy night, in disappointment. It all began about an hour ago. I was in my room doing my homework when I thought I got the smell of something burning. It smelled like a heated soldering iron or as if some wires and rubber was being burnt. At first, I thought it was my computer and panicked. But after a careful inspection, I ruled out that possibility, and went back to my homework. However, the smell became more persistent. With my heart in my mouth, I went down to check the kitchen. It was as I was going down the stairs that I glanced out of the window and saw something that froze my blood. The house across the street – my best friend, Rima’s house – was on fire! I couldn’t believe it and stood for a moment in shock. When I could finally move, I ran to the phone and dialled 911, explaining what I had seen and the location of the fire. Then, I contacted Rima and went out to my porch to await the fire brigade. The house was beginning to smoulder in the fire. I was worried. Rima and her family lived there. I had known her since children and we were like inseparable twins. Luckily, when I had called Rima earlier, she had assured me that no one was at home. Nor did they have any pets; otherwise, they would have been burnt to cinders by now. I watched as a crash brought down the ceiling of the house, bringing the whole roof down with a loud crash, sending sparks high into the sky. Just then, the firefighters arrived and looked at the fullblown inferno in front of them. The fire had got quite out of control now as the whole house was burning fiercely. The firefighters evacuated the street and told everyone to go inside their houses. I had no choice but to retreat to my room, from where I could see, feel and hear Rima’s house burn down. In a few minutes, by which time Rima and her family had arrived at the scene, the house had been reduced to piles of rubble, ashes and smouldering wood. A putrid smell enveloped the whole neighbourhood, like a bad barbecue party went horribly wrong. It was something I would never forget. Worse was seeing the shock and pallor on Rima and her family’s faces. They stood together, hugging each other and crying hopelessly, watching all their treasures and memories burning down. Several neighbours, including my parents, who had been out and had returned by then, were consoling, offering to put them up as they had no home now. I heard Rima’s dad telling my parents that they had taken a fire insurance policy on the house many years ago, so all was not lost. I still keep in touch with Rima, who moved away from the neighbourhood after the incident. But the fire made me realise one thing – the frailty of human life and human ventures. The house had burnt down to nothing within a few hours. It takes man many years to build his dream house and it takes nature only a few minutes to completely destroy his dreams. What a terrifying thought! 50 CONTOH

The following extract has been taken from the end of ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’, the final book in J. K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series. In this section of the novel, Harry Potter, the hero of the series, finally kills Voldemort, the villain of the series, ending the Battle of Hogwarts. A red-gold glow burst suddenly across the enchanted sky above them as an edge of dazzling sun appeared over the sill of the nearest window. The light hit both their faces at the same time, so that Voldemort’s was suddenly a flaming blur. Harry heard the high voice shriek as he too yelled his best hope to the heavens, pointing Draco’s wand: “Avada Kedavra!” “Expelliarmus!” The bang was like a cannon blast, and the golden flames that erupted between them, at the dead centre of the circle they had been treading, marked the point where the spells collided. Harry saw Voldemort’s green jet meet his own spell, saw the Elder Wand fly high, dark against the sunrise, spinning across the enchanted ceiling like the head of Nagini, spinning through the air toward the master it would not kill, who had come to take full possession of it at last. And Harry, with the unerring skill of a Seeker, caught the wand in his free hand as Voldemort fell backward, arms splayed, the slit pupils of the scarlet eyes rolling upward. Tom Riddle hit the floor with a mundane finality, his body feeble and shrunken, the white hands empty, the snakelike face vacant and unknowing. Voldemort was dead, killed by his own rebounding curse, and Harry stood with two wands in his hands, staring down at his enemy’s shell. One shivering second of silence, the shock of the moment suspends: and then the tumult broke around Harry as the screams and the cheers and the roars of the watchers rent the air. The fierce new sun dazzled the windows as they thundered toward him, and the first to reach him were Ron and Hermione, and it was their arms that were wrapped around him, their incomprehensible shouts that deafened him. Then Ginny, Neville, and Luna were there, and then all the Weasleys and Hagrid, and Kingsley and McGonagall and Flitwick and Spout, and Harry could not hear a word that anyone was shouting, nor tell whose hands were seizing him, pulling him, trying to hug some part of him, hundreds of them pressing in, all of them determined to touch the Boy Who Lived, the reason it was over at last — The sun rose steadily over Hogwarts, and the Great Hall blazed with life and light. Harry was an indispensable part of the mingled outpourings of jubilation and mourning, of grief and celebration. They wanted him there with them, their leader and symbol, their saviour and their guide, and that he had not slept, that he craved the company of only a few of them, seemed to occur to no one. He must speak to the bereaved, clap their hands, witness their tears, receive their thanks, hear the new now creeping in from every quarter as the morning drew on; that the Imperiused up and down the country had come back to themselves, that Death Eaters were fleeing or else being captured, that the innocent of Azkaban were being released at that very moment, and that Kingsley Shacklebolt had been named temporary Minister of Magic. 53 CONTOH

Travelling down river rapids in a rubber boat can seem quite intimidating and even scary at first. However, whitewater rafting is widely popular, a thrilling and adventurous experience, and quite safe if done with the help of a licensed guide and rafting company. In fact, river rafting is called ‘whitewater’ rafting due to the rapids that occur naturally throughout stretches of a river – whitewater is actually formed from the turbulence ensuing from fast-flowing currents in the rapids. So what exactly is whitewater rafting? This is a recreational water sport where an inflatable raft, made from synthetic rubber that is both weather resistant and highly durable, carries 4 to 8 people down whitewater rapids on a river. It is considered an adventure sport and has varying levels of difficulty. Typically, an experienced rafting guide will accompany beginners. The first attempts at whitewater river rafting trips were conducted because of military and explorational needs to cross dangerous rivers. Early attempts at running river rapids, as early as the 1800s, often failed. But by the mid-1900s, the invention of new and better river raft materials made running river rapids more feasible. These rubber rafts eventually become recreational and then commercialised, giving rise to recreational adventure sport companies in the 1960s. Now, river rafting is a very popular and widespread adventure sport that draws thousands of tourists and lots of money each rafting season. River rafts too, have so advanced technologically that the quality of the equipment and safety performance levels are excellent. Whitewater rafts are made up of many components. The anatomy of a river raft is designed both to help the raft withstand the harsh conditions of whitewater as well as to help brace and stabilise the riders within. Within the raft, depending on its size, there will be two to three thwarts. Thwarts are cross tubes that are filled with air. These help to both provide rigidity to the boat as well as an extra place for riders to wedge their feet and secure themselves. 6 Unit Time out Theme People and Culture 55 CONTOH


Whitewater river rafts normally have foot holes or cups of some kind for paddlers to place their feet into. They are generally at the front of the raft, where there is no thwart for the paddler to use. Additionally, rafts will have handles and ropes attached to the sides or thwarts – these help with transporting the raft and provide a safety measure in case someone falls out and needs to grab onto the raft. Unless you are a highly experienced whitewater paddler, river rafting is one sport where you definitely want a guide. River reading or navigation is a skill that a guide should possess. The river has many features (water volume, vertical descent, obstacles, debris, rocks, undercut rocks, strainers, holes, waves and more) which form rapids. And rapids are graded from 1 to 6, where 1 is low risk and 6 is high risk. The guide’s job is to navigate the river, steering clear of dangers, whilst catching all the fun features that make whitewater river rafting so much fun. The guide will have the majority of the steering power. Commands given by a rafting guide are very important to listen to and follow, as the guide needs the cooperation of the paddlers in order to fully control the raft. When preparing to go whitewater river rafting, it is important to consider what you will need to bring on the trip. Proper attire is a must. Avoiding heavy clothes, like long jeans and jackets, will be helpful if you end up in the water as heavy clothes make for a heavy swim. Additionally, closed-toed shoes are better in the event that you end up in the water. Whitewater often has many rocks that can injure your feet. Paddles, life jackets and helmets should all be provided by the rafting company you are going with. Always do research into the classifications and routes that a company offers. Some rafting companies may be more beginner-friendly or reputable than others. Lastly, we now have the artificial course that brings a new dynamics to river rafting as it is technically no longer ‘river’ rafting. These courses are fully under control, with a technician determining the water flow rate. This style, of course, uses a lego-style block, which can be manipulated to create different water features. This is used to simulate different styles of natural rapid. Artificial courses are almost always more accessible than backcountry rivers, and located in major cities, like Glasgow’s artificial whitewater course.

Released last week, it was directed by Jon Watts with Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Benedict Cumberbatch, Jon Favreau, Jamie Foxx, Alfred Molina, Willem Dafoe, Marisa Tomei and J K Simmons in important roles. As one of the most popular superheroes in the world, ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ was bound to be a commercial success. ‘No Way Home’ is acclaimed for its integration of several former actors from previous Spider-Man series and follows the typical Marvel format: dynamic action sequences, clever one-liners and interactions between characters and villains from other series in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Integrating the characters of Andrew Garfield, Tobey Maguire, Willem Dafoe, Alfred Molina and Jamie Foxx to reprise their former roles makes this film fresh and innovative. After Peter’s identity as Spider-Man is revealed, he and his friends face their biggest challenge – getting accepted into MIT. Peter, MJ and Ned are rejected because of their association with superhero antics, so Peter asks Doctor Strange to do some moronic spell that will make everyone in the world forget that Peter is Spider-Man. As predicted, this spell goes terribly wrong. Dr Strange keeps plucking strings of light out in the midst of a world-altering spell, at Peter’s confused bidding. Out tumble the villains Spider-Man has fought before, Dr Octopus (Alfred Molina), Green Goblin (Willem Dafoe), Electro (Jamie Foxx) Sandman and the Lizard. 63 CONTOH


English Form 4 Unit 6 LS 4.1.3 PL 1 2 3 4 5 6 By themselves, the creatures who step out of the parallel universes into ours are a lot more fun. The shrieks with which the cinema audience greeted them say all about how much they have been missed despite the years in the middle. Holland, whose Spider-Man role has always been just one of the many Avengers, holds up well when called to be one of a team. The dialogue is witty and funny, Holland, Zendaya and Batalon are believable as kids who find themselves often out of their depth, the battles are coherently staged, a mirror dimension of the world that Dr Strange builds in one such clash is just fantastic, Spider-Man is satisfyingly nerdy (‘What’s cooler than magic? Math.’), and the past is adroitly linked with the present. The action sequences are tense, and the cinematography is stunning, especially when the audience sees three different Spider-Men battling together for the first time. The acting is magnificent. Dafoe as Norman Osborn steals the show with his devious monologues and laughs. Maguire portrays an older, more mature Peter Parker perfectly, and Garfield portrays a young man who has learned from his mistakes and has grown past them. Every performance in this film seems true to their characters. The best parts of the film are seeing these diverse performances by a great number of actors in the film. I found myself interested, not in the overall plot, but more on which character was going to be introduced next. I was uninvolved with Peter’s relationship with MJ, Ned and Aunt May. Instead, I loved watching Maguire finally battling Dafoe again after 19 years. ‘No Way Home’ is a distinguished and entertaining film that is easily one of the best films of the year. For a generation, the line about Spidey was ‘With great power comes great responsibility’. In this film, the modern Peter Parker learns what that means. It is an entertaining film filled with excellent acting, nostalgia and magnificent action sequences. Above all, its idea to bring in former franchise characters is superb. This is something that has not been done in the MCU before, despite several of these characters being portrayed in other films. Nevertheless, this film presents a challenge for Disney and Marvel. They have brought in an innovative idea to their bland formula to make a hit. Returning to the same equation will be disappointing to fans and filmgoers, so whatever comes after ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ will be the true test for the future success of the MCU. 64 CONTOH

Find out the meaning of point and non-point sources of water pollution. Give some examples of each. • Why is it necessary to educate the public about water pollution and to be part of the solution? (Refer to page A12 for the suggested answers) b Read the article and provide a suitable title for it. a River Pollution and Solutions to River Pollution b The Pollution of Sungai Muda c Causes of Water Pollution c Read the article below and answer the questions that follow. Have you heard of the Sungai Muda Project? It is the main water supply for agricultural, industrial and domestic sector for both Penang and Kedah. But a former sand mining pool next to a main water source for Kedah and Penang is now overflowing with e-waste, raising concerns of a looming pollution crisis amid a water shortage caused by the dry spell in the region. The three-acre mining pool at Kampung Belida near Kuala Ketil, once a popular fishing ground for anglers, is now topped with rubbish and e-waste. Just metres away is Sungai Muda, which supplies water to over 50,000 paddy farmers, and serves as the main source of water for Kedah and Penang. The waste was mostly made up of electronic parts as well as municipal waste from abroad. Checks at the Kampung Belida dumping ground showed similarities with other illegal dumps in Sungai Petani. There were plastic pellets and municipal waste from Canada, France and other developed countries. Environmental activist, Aziz Mat Nayan, said the problem started about four years ago when locals started dumping rubbish there. “The mining pool used to be 20 to 30 feet deep. And had water in it! But now it is filled to the brim with plastics. We have complained many times, but no action has been taken,” said Aziz, from Persatuan Tindakan Alam Sekitar Sungai Petani. Rapid urbanisation and population growth have contributed both to an ever-increasing demand for water consumption and at the same time, to the level of water pollution in Malaysia. Frighteningly, river water quality has declined, making it much more difficult to make it available for use than in the past. Thus, a more awarenessraising campaign is needed to change public attitudes, behaviours and expectations, and to educate people to become more environmentally conscious. In short, we can minimise water pollution by the following simple acts and eventually play a significant role in keeping the rivers clean. Firstly, treating waste products before disposing of them in a water body helps reduce water pollution on a large scale. Agriculture and other industries can reuse this wastewater after reducing its toxic contents. Using environmentally-friendly products, which are water soluble and do not become pollutants, can help reduce the amount of water pollution caused by a household. We should not throw chemicals, oils, paints and medicines down the sink, drain or the toilet. In fact, in many cities, your local environment office can help with the disposal of medicines and chemicals. Regarding legislation, more strict laws are needed to control and prevent river pollution. The government has so far introduced new policies and regulations to ban certain pollutants, with pollution permits to be issued as control measures. Harsher punishments for waste dumping at rivers will deter people and factories from dumping their waste into rivers. According to The Environmental Quality Act of 1974, a fine of up to 7 Unit Mother Nature Theme Health and Environment 66 CONTOH


RM100, 000 and/ or a jail term of up to five years is recommended to be imposed on those found to have been wilfully or negligently polluting rivers. Authorities should enforce this law to prevent further river pollution. Educating the masses is a major factor to solving river pollution issues. Environmental education programmes have been set up by the government to educate the public about the importance of keeping our rivers clean. The RIVER Ranger Programme, dedicated to the environment, water resources and rivers, is a programme that is addressed not only water pollution, but every aspect of freshwater ecosystems, including its biodiversity, functions, values, and benefits to mankind. Its objectives are: • To increase public awareness and knowledge in managing resources • To provide living skills to participants for use in local environmental management • To coach participants on ways to evaluate and audit river basins • To have the local community develop a database on local rivers • To motivate participants to initiate water/ river conservation projects in the school, community or organisation Finally, let us look at the economic factor. Most environmental experts agree that the best way to tackle pollution is through the ‘polluter pays principle’. This means that whoever causes pollution should pay to clean up the environment, one way or another. Polluter pays can operate in all kinds of ways. For example, tanker owners must take out insurance that covers the cost of oil spill clean-ups. Shoppers will have to pay for their plastic grocery bags to encourage recycling and to minimise waste. And factories that use rivers must have their water inlet pipes downstream of their effluent outflow pipes, so if they cause pollution, they themselves will be the first people to suffer. Ultimately, the ‘polluter pays principle’ is designed to deter people from polluting by making it cheaper for them to behave in a more environmentally responsible way.

According to Jonathan Amos, a Science correspondent, air pollution started to fall in many UK cities in response to the lockdown measures introduced as a result of the coronavirus crisis. This was seen across the world as people spent less time in vehicles, offices and factories, and more time at home. Data collected by the National Centre for Atmospheric Science showed marked reductions in nitrogen dioxide (NO2 ) and in particulate matter (PM2.5). And the falls looked set to continue. ‘If you look at traffic volumes, they’re still going down. And so we probably haven’t reached the bottom yet,’ said Prof Ally Lewis, director of science at the NCAS. This was reported in March 2020 and the pictures below were taken at the same time.
