Read the narrative text below, then answer the questions below!
Budi has been a scavenger since he was seven years old so he has never had
an education. Even so, Budi often collects used books from the city’s trash heaps.
Budi could only read and do basic arithmetic when there was a social service
that had conducted a literacy eradication program.
It didn’t last long, only six months, but at least Budi could read and count.
With the capital of old books from piles of city waste, Budi honed his basic
knowledge. When he was a teenager he took the “Ujian Kejar Paket” for those
who had dropped out of school.
When he grew up, Budi became a waste recycling entrepreneur from all the
training and education he attended. This is clear proof that education can change
someone’s life even from the grassroots.
