Question : 

Section 4 - Reading

a. Read the story Part 3

Part 3

The next day, he joined the soccer club. He promised to train hard. He wanted to become a great soccer player and helped his team win. However, he could not play well at the club. He always failed to keep the goal area. He was very sad and almost gave up. Pak RT came to him and suggested that he should try other positions. After trying some positions, he found that being a midielder was the best position for him.

A month later, there was a mandatory soccer match in that region. Mirza was grouped with Siti, Abay, Raka, Amelia, and Pitra. At irst, they underestimated Mirza’s skills, but he proved them wrong. He helped his team to win as a midielder. He could pass the ball accurately so that Siti, the forward, could score for the team. Everyone cheered for Mirza, including Siti.

“I’m sorry for underestimating you, Mirza. I should not have pushed you to be a goalkeeper. You are such a great midielder!” praised Siti. Mirza smiled and said “That’s okay. Let’s practice together to become a better team.”

b. Answer the questions based on the story Part 3 .

1. Draw a picture of the setting in each part of the story

Answer : 

Part 1: Makeshift Soccer Field on Gang Pelita

Setting Description:

This picture should show a bright but not overly hot afternoon. The main focus is Gang Pelita, a small, quiet street with very few cars passing by. In the middle of the street, white lines drawn with a stone create a simple soccer field.

Around the field, there's a tall building looming, providing some shade. There might be a few children already in their positions, wearing casual clothes suitable for playing. Their expressions should convey enthusiasm and excitement, except for Mirza, who might look a bit awkward or confused in the goal area.

Key Elements:

A quiet asphalt/dirt road.

Roughly drawn soccer field lines.

A tall building on the side of the street.

Afternoon ambiance.

Children playing soccer.

Part 2: Mirza's Bedroom and a Simple Home Corner

Setting Description:

This picture can be divided into two scenes or two parts within one image.

Scene 1 (Mirza's Bedroom):

Focus on Mirza's bedroom. Mirza is seen kicking a black-and-white plastic ball against the wall. The room might appear simple, perhaps with some children's posters or toys. The bedroom wall could show marks from the ball kicks. Mirza's mother is visible in the doorway, with a slightly annoyed or tired expression due to the noise.

Scene 2 (Home Corner/Living Room):

Shift to a Sunday morning atmosphere. Mirza is sitting next to his mother. His mother is busy with stacks of clothing boxes, indicating her work as an online shop assistant. The background could be a simple living room, perhaps with more piles of clothes or online shop equipment. The morning atmosphere is calm, but there's a slight tension from Mirza's conversation with his mother about their financial situation.

Key Elements:

A child's bedroom with a plastic ball.

Walls that might be slightly dirty/damaged from ball kicks.

A doorway.

Stacks of clothing boxes (online shop).

A simple home setting.

Part 3: Community Soccer Field and Team Victory

Setting Description:

This picture should depict a community soccer field that is more organized than the makeshift field on Gang Pelita. Perhaps there are proper goalposts, well-maintained grass, or spectators on the sidelines.

The main focus is the mandatory soccer match in that region. Mirza is visible as a midfielder, with a focused and confident expression, accurately passing the ball. Siti, the forward, looks ready to score. Other team members (Abay, Raka, Amelia, Pitra) also appear enthusiastic.

The atmosphere around the field should show the cheers of the spectators and the excitement as Mirza's team successfully scores or wins the match. Siti's expression, which was initially dismissive, has now turned to admiration and pride.
