Ujian Nasional mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris bagi sebagian besar siswa masih dianggap sulit dan selalu menjadi momok, apalagi bagi siswa di daerah pinggiran. Sebenarnya akar permasalahan ini adalah minimnya penguasaan kosa-kata. Namun jika jeli dan tidak mudah putus asa sebenarnya soal-soal tertentu dapat dikerjakan dengan benar meski hanya sedikit sekali mengetahui arti dari kata-kata yang digunakan. Ya, caranya – harus rajin berlatih mengerjakan soal dan titen. (Ini khusus untuk mata pelajaran Bahasa Inggris. Mata pelajaran yang lain saya tidak tahu.)
