LAWANG SEWU was actually built as the main colonial office for the Dutch and was then taken over by the Japanese government. This place was important because it was the main military hub for the Indonesians and was used for giving shelter to the soldiers and army men here. The place was often considered to be haunted place as many truly and sincerely believed that the place was inhabited by spirits and ghosts and thus many people used to feel scared to visit the place fearing the obvious.

After that he stopped a little while for lunch at Sukawati and on to mass. Mass is a tourist center

Do you know the typical animal of Australia? It’s kangaroo. Yes, everybody sees. But, do you know the first kangaroos? They differ from the kangaroos we see today. Unlike the present kangaroos, the first kangaroos lived in the rainforests. They ate insects, and they were about the size of large rats. They developed from a type of possum that came down from the trees to search for food on the forest floor. Today the musky kangaroos or the smallest kangaroos still have things in common with the ancient possum. For example, they still have big toes.
There are many types of small types of kangaroos in Australia, even though people have only seen the big ones. A lot of the smaller kangaroo species, such as bettongs, are in danger of extinction because sheep, cattle and rabbits eat their food and the tall grasses. In fact, the tall grasses are the shelter of the small kangaroos from their predators like foxes and feral cats.
What about the big types of kangaroos? These kangaroos are in no danger of extinction. They have been helped by farming. They can live in the drier parts of the country, and they love the nice short grass that grazing cattle leave behind.
What is specific about kangaroos? It is their hop. The kangaroo hop is a very unusual way for a large animal to move. If you try to hop up the street in the same way, you will get tired very quickly. There are a couple of reasons why kangaroos do not get tired, even when they hop as fast as 65 km/hour; Firstly, they have powerful hind legs to store a lot of energy. Secondly, when they hop, their innards flop to and fro, pumping air in and out of their lungs and saving their muscles a lot of work.
Besides the hop, kangaroos are different from the other animals because they are marsupials. Like koala and wombats, kangaroos rear their young in a pouch. In good conditions, the females of some kangaroos are almost always pregnant. A day or two after joeys are born, she mates again.
A female kangaroo can produce milk from different teats for the older and the younger joeys. And when there’s a bad drought the kangaroos stop breeding until the rains come and they have enough food supply.
35. What does the text tell us about?A. The types of kangaroos in Australia.B. The origins of kangaroos in AustraliaC. The growth of kangaroos in AustraliaD. The habitats of kangaroos in Australia
36. Why a lot of the smaller kangaroo species are in danger of extinction?A. They stop breeding until the rains come.B. There is a bad drought and no water supply.C. Sheep, cattle and rabbits eat their food and the tall grasses.D. The fox and feral cats take over their habitat in the rainforest
37. Which one of these statements is true based on the text above?A. Kangaroos commonly have small toes.B. The specific thing about kangaroos is their food.C. They have powerful hind pouch to store a lot of energyD. The tall grasses are the shelter of the small kangaroos from their predators
