 BAB II
PEMBAHASAN

A.     Understanding
Before looking What is the definition of descriptive text as a whole, let us understand what is
meant by the word descriptive itself. Descriptive is an adjective that if we mean in Indonesian
means that the description (picture). If you were asked to describe an object, it means you have
to describe the object in question both in the size, color and so forth. According to Wikipedia, is
a Descriptive text is: "one kaedah data processing effort into something that can be expressed
clearly and precisely with the aim that can be understood by people who do not directly
experience it for yourself." So what is meant by descriptive text is an article or text that describes
the properties inherent in something, be it humans, animals, plants, or inanimate objects such as
houses, cars and so forth.
B.     Purpose Descriptive Text
Judging from the above understanding, then in fact we are able to understand what is the
purpose of descriptive text. Another goal is to describe everything be it human, animal, plant or
inanimate objects with properties attached to it such as size, type, color, and so forth so that the
reader or the reader can figure out what something is out of the picture we convey even though
he has not never seen.
C.     Structure Text (Generic Structure)
Descriptive text has its own rules in writing, including in the structure or composition of
which must be written in order. If you are prompted to create descriptive text, then make sure the
structure is as follows:
1.      Identification: This section - in the first paragraph - the goal is to identify something to be
described or depicted. Explanation easy, Identification serves to introduce the reader about the
object or something that we have described before we tell about its properties. The goal is not to
get one of those readers. We want to describe a car, for example, but the reader assumed motors.
Example: you are asked to describe the new car, then the contents of his identification is: My dad
just bought a new car. This car is long I craved, but only now my father bought. (Means to be
portrayed is my car, not the car someone else).
2.      Description: This section - in the second paragraph and so on - contains the properties inherent
in something that you already introduced to the reader in the first paragraph. Example (continued
on cars above): This is my new car is the latest sports car from Toyota. Number bench only two,
one for the driver and one for passengers, as well as the door. This car can be sped up to speeds
of 500 km / h, almost equal to the speed of Fokker plane manifold.
D.    Characteristics Descriptive Text
These characteristics are important for you to take into account when writing the descriptive
text is not wrong. So make sure you use the following features when using the genre will write
descriptive text:
1.      Using the Simple Present Tense. Why use the simple present tense? this is because we will
describe a fact or truth that is attached to something or someone. And one of the functions of the
simple present is to illustrate a fact or truth (eg fact: the sun is hot). Therefore, you should always
use the first form of the verb (verb-1). Your example will illustrate the properties of your new
car: The color of my car is black, it can run up to 500 km / hour.
2.      Because of its function is to describe something by explaining its properties, then the text will be
found many descriptive adjectives (adjective), as handsome, beautiful, tall, small, big, or if the
adjective is derived from the verb, then you will find additional -ve, -ing, -nt in tow,
Example: Create (create)> creative (smart people make something).
Interest (interest)> interesting (something interesting)
3.      In the descriptive text we will often find Relating verb (copula) which is (as in characteristic
number 1). In Indonesian is often interpreted as "is". Because the purpose or function descriptive
text is to describe, then definitely we will often find the word was (is). His name is Andy (his
name was Andy), his height is 160 cm (height is 160 cm).
E.     Sample Descriptive Text and explanation.
