Read the following text and answer the questions

1. The Inuit, who used to be called “Eskimos," are the people of the Canadian Arctic. They
have adapted to the freezing cold surroundings, where they depend on marine life for
food. In the area, vegetables and trees are hard to find. The Inuit hunt land animals
during the summer with traditional weapons, such as bows and arrows. Their primary
means of transport is sleds pulled by dogs. In order to protect their body from the
extreme cold, they made clothing out of caribou fur. Another interesting fact about the
Inuit is the igloos, houses made of snow blocks, in which they live during winter.

Habibie & Ainun tells the love story of the third president of Indonesia, Bacharuddin
Jusuf habibie and his wife, Ainun Habibie. The story flows very smoothly with the climax
being his rising career as Research and Technology Minister to the Vice Presidency later to
the Presidency after the nation’s reformation in 1998, followed by Ainun’s health
deterioration which caused her death. The saddest part was when Ibu Ainun could not cope
with several surgeries to remove her ovarian cancer that had spread out through her body.
What would you call a pure, real, and eternal love of a man? His description about love,
which I could not imagine, is repeated in this book quite often. The author tells that their
struggles for Ainun’s recovery in several sanitariums in Europe were romantic memories they
shared.
There are thirty seven chapters in the book. The first to fifteenth chapters are very
easy to follow. However, the hardest part comprises the chapter when Habibie explains the
technicalities of projects and achievements in his restless work during his attachment to the
Development Cabinet (in chapter 17 to 30). I had to read several times to understand his
thinking, but I found it very interesting. I am quite impressed by Habibie’s writing style. He
positions himself as the subject as if he was sitting in front of me while I was listening to him.
The book has now been translated into English, Dutch, and German, and shortly will be in
Japanese. The moral of the story emphasizes that it is very important to focus on our life’s
goals. Be passionate about what we do, and love our country, and that support from family
and true eternal love is important. All in all, Habibie-Ainun’s love story is more romantic that
Romeo-Juliet’s love story. The tale of Romeo and Juliet was fictional, but habibie and
Ainun’s story is real.
