My Favourite Novel
I love reading very much. I have a lot of books but my favourite ones are a series of novels. They are
novels about a magical world and dragons. Those are the themes that I like so much, a mythical world. The
novels actually were birthday presents from my sister. She bought them last year when she went to England
to finish her research. She knew that I will like them so much.
The series of novels that I mean consist of four novels. Each of it contains 500 to 600 pages so it is
thick. The novel is in English. The appearance of the novels is attractive. The covers are made of leather. It
is good quality leather so it will not be torn easily. The colour of the leather is different for each book, there
are brown, light brown, yellow, and red leather. The title of each book is written on the left side and on the
front side of the novel. There is also a box specially designed to keep all the novels. This box is covered by
green leather. It is very beautiful

Lavender is an herb native to countries bordering the Mediterranean. Lavender species are
common in herb gardens for their fragrant leaves and attractive flowers. The plants are widely cultivated for
their essential oils, which are used to scent a variety of products. The dried flowers, for example, have long
been used in sachets to scent chests and closets, and the ancient Romans used lavender in their baths.
Lavender is best planted in the spring as the soil is warming up. If planted in the fall, use bigger
plants to ensure survival over the winter. We have to plant lavender 2 to 3 feet apart. It thrives in any poor
fertile soil but, keep away from wet, moist areas.
Some studies suggest that consuming lavender as a tea can help digestive issues such as vomiting,
nausea, intestinal gas, upset stomach. A study in the journal Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative
Medicine published that lavender has an acceleratory effect on wound healing. Research from 1998 also
shows that lavender can promote hair growth after 7 months of treatment. Adapted from:

Read the following text for questions 13 to 15.
One day, when an Ant was nimbly running about in search of food, came across a Chrysalis that
was close to its time of change. The Chrysalis moved its tail, and thus attracted the attention of the Ant,
who then saw for the first time that it was alive. “Poor, pitiable animal!” cried the Ant disdainfully.
“What a sad fate is yours! While I can run hither and hither, at my pleasure, and, if I wish, ascend the
tallest tree, you lie imprisoned here in your shell, with power only to move a joint or two or your scaly
tail.” The Chrysalis heard all this, but did not try to make any reply.
A few days after, when the Ant passed that way again, nothing but the shell remained. Wondering
what had become of its contents, he felt himself suddenly shaded and fanned by the gorgeous wings of a
beautiful Butterfly, “Behold in me, your much pitied friend!” said the Butterfly, “Boast of your powers to
run and climb as long as you can get me to listen now” So saying, the Butterfly rose in the air, and, borne
along and aloft on the summer breeze, was soon lost to the sight of the Ant forever.
