Picasso was one of the most outstanding and important
artist of the 1900’s. He is the best known for his painting. Almost every style
in modern art is represented in picasso’s works. Picasso was born in 1881 in
Malaga, Spain as the son of an art teacher. He studied painting from his father
and several art schools. However, he never finished his college level course of
study at the Academy of Arts in Madrid.
From
about 1895 to 1901, he painted realistic works in a traditional style. Then he
entered what was called the Blue period. During this time he only used shades
of blue in his painting to show poverty he saw in Barcelona.
After 1908, he
entered into the style of cubism. Among his well-known cubist painting are
“Three Musicians” and “Man With a Guitar”. Picasso died in Mougins, France in

Exit
Tax spoils visa-free policy
An article
titled, ”The ASEAN visa free pact hailed as a boon for tourism on page 10 of
the Jakarta post, july 31, assumed
that free visas and low cost airline ticket would not only encourage people to
travel but also stimulated social and commercial interaction within ASEAN
countries.
However
the hope expressed in the article will mislead readers because the exit tax
policy imposed by the Indonesian government is higher than the price of a
budget airlines ticket.
I
once saw an airlines company charge a passenger about Rp.800.000,00 for a
return to Jakarta – kuala lumpur. Which certainly attracted people to Malaysia.
Unfortunately, those people had to think twice before buying the ticket,
because they had to pay an exit tax of Rp. 1 million.
Finland,
however, a country where I used to live in for several years, does not charge
its citizen with the exit tax. It was easy and cheap for me to travel around
Europe countries.
Thus,
in order to promote people to people contact in Southeast Asia, the Indonesia
government should revoke the exit tax for visits within ASEAN countries
immediately.

B. Spoil
the visa-free policy released by the government
C. Balance
the price of the airline ticket and the exit tax
D. Promote
people-to-people contact in Southeast Asia
E. Impose
the exit tax policy and new airline ticket
32. The
exit tax spoils the visa-free policy because. . . .
A. The
operation of budget airlines are getting more expensive
B. The
exit tax is higher than price of an airlines
C. The
policy facilitated many tourist to visit Southeast Asia countries
D. The
exit tax is cheaper than the price of an airlines tickets

policy won’t charge every passenger who travels abroad
