One day, one of my teachers stopped me in the hail to ask if I was okay. She asked if she could help me, if l would tell her what was going on. So I did. She helped save me and lift me back up. After a while, I started to feel and do better. She is now one of my greatest friends and mentors, and we talk daily. I could never repay her for everything she has done for me.

Through my experiences, I learned never to do anything without thinking of how it will impact the people around me.

Text 3 (Soal UTBK 2019)

Mount Kilauea in Hawaii continues to erupt with the lava flows like syrup. Meanwhile, Mount Merapi in Indonesia also begins to show eruptions that are not caused by water vapor pressure as it happens with Mount Kilauea. When these two events become headlines in media, a question arises, \"Are magma and lava different?\" The difference between magma and lava is about their location. When geologists refer to magma, they talk about molten rock which is still trapped underground. If this molten rock surfaces above the ground, it is referred to as lava. Magma has a varied chemical composition, which makes volcanoes containing magma have different properties.

Based on its composition, magma is categorized into two types, namely mafic magma and silicamagma. Mafic magma, like in Hawaii, is formed when the crust that makes up the ocean floor melts. This type of magma contains 47 to 63 percent silica, a mineral that forms glass and quartz. Mafic magma has a fairly fluid feature, with viscosity - a measurement of the resistance to flow, which is affected by pressure. Mafic is the hottest type. The temperature of the mafic magma reaches 1,800 to 2,200°F, or 1,204°C.

In contrast to mafic magma, silica magma is formed when continental crusts melt. Visually, for many people, silica magma looks more interesting than mafic magma. Rhyolite, a type of magma with a very rich silica content, can reach 1,500°F or 815°C. Because silica magma is cooler and thicker than mafic magma, the gas content in it becomes difficult and longer to release. This makes silica magma more dangerous. The more gas is formed in the magma, the greater the explosion of the magma. When the gas content in the silica magma is released, it will form bursting bubbles in the magma. This event is similar to opening a packaged soda that has been previously shaken. The resulting steam flow will trigger a huge explosion.

One of the mountains formed from the silica magma is Mount Pinatubo in the island of Luzon, the Philippines. In the case of the Hawaiian Volcano, this mountain does not contain high silica magma. The explosive power of this mountain is not strong. Instead, this mountain will gradually spout and discharge its contents.

8. The phrase ‘Based on its composition’ in paragraph 2 can be replaced by…
A. Whenever considering its types
B. With regard to its basic structures
C. Referring to its constituent elements
D. In terms of the origin
E. Regarding its nature

9. What is the main idea of the passage above?
A. There is an obvious difference between magma and lava.
B. Magma has different types in its chemical content.
C. Some mountains are formed from silica magma.
D. The volcano erupts by releasing lava flow abruptly.
E. Mount Kilauea In Hawaii differs from Mount Merapi in Indonesia.

10. The author\'s intention to write the sentence ‘One of the mountains formed from tile silica magma is Mount Pinatubo in the island of Luzon, the Philippines’ in paragraph 4 is to ….
A. Provide an example of a mountain with high explosive power
B. Compare between volcanoes in the Philippines and in Hawaii
C. Explain the composition of magma on Mount Pinatubo
D. Confirm that Mount Pinatubo is in the Philippines
E. Describe a mountain formed from silica magma
