Read the following text and answer the question!
Bandung as Sea of Fire was a fire that occurred in the city of Bandung on March 24, 1946. Within seven hours, about 200,000 residents of Bandung burned their homes. British troops as part of the Brigade MacDonald arrived in Bandung on October 12, 1945. Bandung was deliberately burned by TRI and local people. There were black smoke billowing high into the air everywhere. The British Army began to attack so fierce. The greatest battle happened in the Village name Dayeuh Kolot, in South Bandung, where there were a large ammunition depot belonging to British. In this battle, Barisan Rakyat Indonesia destroyed the ammunition depot. The strategy to fire Bandung was considered because the power of TRI and people’s militia was not comparable to the British forces and NICA. This incident inspired to create the famous song “Halo Halo Bandung”. To remember what they did and struggled, they built the Bandung Lautan Api monument.

Soal menanyakan apa yang dapat dipelajari dari wacana.
Berdasarkan teks yang tersedia, TRI dan penduduk lokal Bandung menyadari bahwa mereka tidak sekuat pasukan Inggris dan NICA sehingga mereka lebih memilih membakar Bandung dan sumber dayanya dibandingkan membiarkannya jatuh ke tangan pasukan Inggris.
Oleh karena itu, yang dapat dipelajari dari teks tersebut adalah lebih baik menghancurkan kepemilikan kita daripada membiarkan kepemilikan kita itu jatuh ke tangan musuh.
Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah 'What we can learn from the text is that it's better to destroy our possession instead of letting the enemy get hold of it'.
