CHAPTER 2

CONDITIONAL SENTENCES
1. Future Conditional (Type 1)
It is possible and also very likely that the condition will be fulfilled in the future.
Pattern:
if + subject + Verb 1 + subject + will/shall/may/must + Verb inf.
or
if + Simple Present, will-Future

If we study hard, we will pass the test effortlessly.

2. Present Conditional (Type 2)


It is possible but very unlikely, that the condition will be fulfilled.
- to express one’s expectation at present time
- to show a present unreal situation
Pattern
if + subject + Verb 2 + subject + would / could / might + Verbinf.
or
if + Simple Past, would + Verbinf

- If I got a better score, I wouldn’t feel so worried showing my test to my parents.


- If I were a bird, I would fly away.

Using present conditional means there is an implied meaning. For example:


- If I got a better score, I wouldn’t feel so worried showing my test to my parents.
Means...I get a bad score, I feel so worried to show my test to my parents.
- If I were a bird, I would fly away.
Means...I am not a bird, so I don’t fly away.

3. Past Conditional (Type 3)


It is impossible that the condition will be fulfilled because it refers to the past.
- to express one’s past expectation
- to show an unreal past situation
- to express a regret
Pattern
if + subject + had + Verb3 + subject + would / could / might + have Verb3
or
if + Past Perfect, would + have + past participle

- If I had eaten the meal I might have had a stomach-ache.


- If Lina had brought an umbrella she wouldn’t have got wet because of the rain.

Using present conditional means there is an implied meaning. For example:


- If I had eaten the meal I might have had a stomach-ache.
Means...I didn’t eat the meal so I didn’t have a stomach-ache.
- If Lina had brought an umbrella she wouldn’t have got wet because of the rain.
Means...Lina didn’t bring an umbrella so she got wet because of the rain.

4. Omitting if in Conditional Clause


IF CLAUSE OMITTED IF
Notice that the word order is normal. Notice that the word order is inverted
(subject+verb) (verb+subject)
If you should need any help, please call me. → Should you need any help, please call me.
If I were you, I would tell him about the problem. → Were I you, I would tell him about the problem.
If I had known you were coming, I’d have baked a cake. → Had I known you were coming, I’d have baked a cake.

a. Type 1
In If Clause Type 1, we only use ‘should’ instead of ‘if’. We don’t change anything in the form of first conditional at
all. Nothing changes in meaning.
 If the weather is rainy, we will stay at home.
Should the weather be rainy, we will stay at home.
 If he doesn’t hurry, he will be late. (Negative)
Should he not hurry, he will be late.
b. Type 2
In this type of inversion, we omit if and use were + subject for to be verb and were + subject + to for other verbs.
 If I had a map I would lend it to you.
Were I have a map I would lend it to you.
 If he didn’t study more, he wouldn’t pass the exam. (negative)
Were he not to study more, he wouldn’t pass the exam.
c. Type 3
We don’t use if and make the structure as “Had + Subject + Verb 3”
 If the teacher had helped me, I wouldn’t have had to go to the library.
Had the teacher helped me, I wouldn’t have had to go to the library.
 If I hadn’t got up early this morning, I would have slept more. (negative)
Had I not got up early this morning, I would have slept more.

Besides the three types of conditional sentence, there is zero conditional. It uses if or when and must be followed by the
simple present or imperative. In zero conditional sentences, we can replace ‘if’ with ‘when’ because both express general
truths. The meaning will be unchanged.
For example:
 If the weather is fine, we go to park.
 When I’m in town, I visit my aunt.

The pattern is:


If/when + Present Simple, + Present Simple

The zero conditional is used to make statements about the real world, and often refers to general truths, such as scientific
facts. In these sentences, the time is now or always and the situation is real and possible.

The uses of zero conditional are:


1. Rules
 If you take your cell phone into class, it must be turned off.
 If you drink alcohol, don’t drive.
2. Scientific Facts and General Truth
 If you heat water to 100 degrees Celsius, it boils.
 When you combine oil and water, they do not mix.

3. Cause and Effect


 If you push the button, the volume increases.
 The computer turns off when you disconnect the battery.
4. Habits and Routines
 I wear my boots when I work.
 She uses glasses when she drives.

CONDITIONAL + IMPERATIVE
In the conditional clause + imperative, we can use a variety of present forms. In the result clause, there can only be the
present simple or imperative.
There are series of pattern you can use when you want to make conditional sentences.
Condition refers to Tenses use Example of conditions Example of suggestion
Future action Simple Present If you want to go tomorrow, prepare now.
If you visit Yogyakarta, go on Borobudur temple.
Action going on now Present continuous If he snoring, wake him up.
When I’m concentrating, please don’t make so much noise.
Finished action Present perfect If he has moved into his new flat, visit him.
If you’ve done that, go and have a coffee.

CHAPTER 3

1. CAPTION (TEKS PENYERTA GAMBAR)


A caption, also known as a cutline, is text that appears below an image. Most captions draw attention to something in the
image that is not obvious, such as its relevance to the text. Captions consist of a few words of description, or several
sentences. Along with the title, the section headings, captions are the most commonly read words in an article, so they
should be succinct and informative.
Captions help readers or viewers to understand more information that might not be in photos, images or videos.
Captions also include a short title or heading of an article in a magazine or newspaper. Words shown on a cinema or
television screen to establish the scene of a story are also called captions.

There are several criteria for a good caption. A good caption:


1. Clearly identifies the subject of the picture, without detailing the obvious.
2. Succinct or brief
3. Establishes the picture’s relevance to the article
4. Provides context for the picture
5. Draws the reader into the article

Different people read articles in different ways. Some of people start at the top and read each word until the end. Others
read the first paragraph and scan through for other interesting information, looking especially at the pictures and
captions. Those readers, even if the information is adjacent in the text, will not find it unless it is in the caption. However,
it is best not to tell the whole story in the caption, but use the caption to make the reader curious about the subject.

Look at the examples below!

TASK 1
Read and practice the conversation below!

A : What are you saying about a good caption?


B : Well, I think a good caption should give information about the image attached with it.
A : Do you mean it should describe the information of the image clearly?
B : No, not that thing. A caption is brief information, which will persuade the readers or viewers to read the complete
information from the text. It just need like one or two sentences.
A : I see. I mostly find images with captions while I read news in newspaper. And yes, it’s true that sometimes by reading
the caption we are curious to find the facts from the long text.
B : Of course, that’s why the writer should make the caption as interesting as possible. That’s the function of caption,
though.
A : Alright then. Let’s try to make caption from images I found in the magazines and newspapers.

TNI Shows Off in Front SBY and Jokowi during Anniversary

WahyoeBoediwardhana, The Jakarta Post, Surabaya, East Java | Headlines | Wed, October 08 2014, 9:46 AM

The Indonesian Military (TNI) showed off its most sophisticated primary weaponry system (Alutsista) on Tuesday to impress its
outgoing and incoming supreme commanders as part of its 69th anniversary celebration at the Navy’s Most Eastern Region
Fleet (Armatim) Command.

Thousands of invitees attending the ceremony witnessed a parade that included the TNI’s new combat equipment, the Main
Battle Tank (MBT) Leopard bought from Germany and three Multi Role Light Frigates (MRLFs) bought from the UK, namely KRI
Bung Tomo-357, KRI John Lie-358, and the KRI Usman Harun-359.

The Army paraded the likes of Marder tanks, mistral rockets, and a French-made Caesar 155mm cannon. The Air Force
paraded sophisticated fighters, including CN-235 MPA, T-50i Golden Eagle, Sukhoi SU-30 MK2, CN-295, F-16 Fighting Falcon,
Hercules C-130, and Super Tucano. In total, the Army paraded 192 Alutsista units, the Navy 195 units, and the Air Force 139
fighters.

The parade, which cost Rp20 billion, also included military martial arts, 18,580 troops, fighters flying overhead and warships
sailing past. In his address, Yudhoyono advised Jokowi to follow in his steps to develop the TNI.

“The TNI has to be capable and ready to maintain the sovereignity and integrity of the NKRI (Unitary State of the Republic of
Indonesia) as well as deal with non-traditional security threats, such as natural disasters, pirates, terrorism, transnational crime,
cyber-attacks, and people smuggling,” the President said.

He said modern and comprehensive weaponry development would improve the TNI’s posture and improve the nation’s
dignity and independence. “Since 2006, we have improved the national defense industry to fulfill the TNI Alutsista needs,”
Yudhoyono said. He said that during his first five years in office, th focus was on revitalizing Alutsista, which could no longer
function well. During the next five years, he said, the focus was on increasing the size of Alutsista and modernizing it.

He claimed that such a coordination is required to anticipate infiltration of a terrorist group to Myanmar.

that they will have to again go against Myanmar security officers,” Wiranto said in Jakarta on Friday, Dec. 15.
However, Wiranto explained that Indonesia will not intervene the repatriation process of the Rohingya to
Myanmar. The reason is, he continued, coordination is needed to maintain the stability of South East Asia from
terrorism.
“It is the same as what we did for the Philippines to neutralize ISIS base in Marawi,” he added.

Weapon to Fight Global Warming: Clouds
18th November 2015 – 12:32 p.m.
US scientists are working on what could one day become a controversial weapon to battle global warming:
clouds.
Misting ocean clouds with saltwater, the theory goes, could make them reflect more sunlight away from the
earth.
“If you can reflect away a little of that radiation and not allow it to be absorbed, you will cool the planet,” says
University of Washington atmospheric scientist Tom Ackerman.
The phenomenon has been observed over cargo ships, as microscopic particles in smokestack effluent collect
water droplets, leaving trails of “brightened” clouds in their wake.
Ackerman’s team believes the effect could be recreated using tiny salt particles to reduce solar radiation
absorbed by the ocean. However, Ackerman says no investor is willing to support field tests and environmental activists
have threatened to disrupt them.
Other researchers in the US, United Kingdom and Germany working in high-tech climate hacks from dimming the
sun’s ray with stratospheric aerosols to growing phytoplankton to suck carbon dioxide from the seas have hit similar
barriers.
The point of contention isn’t whether humanity could one day use so-called geoengineering to cool Earth—but
whether we should.
“People have this sort of innate response that we’re tinkering with Mother Nature and we shouldn’t be,”
Ackerman told DPA—even though, he points out, by burning fossil fuels “we are already adding carbon dioxide to the
atmosphere.”
Earth’s temperature is currently on course to rise at least 4°C this century as a result of increasing carbon dioxide
and other greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere.

PHILIPPINES is the ‘firmly entrance’ of the bird flu virus in Asia and it’s a pandemic among humans remains possible, a
World Health Organization expert warned Wednesday.
While Asian countries are more prepared to react to any outbreaks than before and have vaccine stockpiles,
deaths and infections have continued, noted Takeshi Kasai, the WHO’s regional adviser for communicable disease
surveillance and response.
“The virus has firmly entranced in this region, I’m afraid,” Kasai told reporters during an exercise to test the
Philippines’ preparations against the disease.
“The virus itself keeps changing, so the risk of pandemic persists.”
Experts fear the virus, which is usually spread directly from birds to humans, could mutate into a form easily
transmissible between people, sparking a deadly global pandemic.

2. GERUND, BARE INFINITIVE, TO INFINITIVE

1. A gerund is a noun made from a verb by adding “-ing”


Because gerund functions as a noun, it can be attached to adjective and possessive adjective.
 Your smiling is my happiness.
 Thank you for your coming to my party.

a) Gerund as the subject of the sentence


 Hunting tigers is prohibited by the government.
 Smoking causes lung cancer and other diseases.
b) Gerund as the complement of the verb ‘to be’
 One of his duty is attending meetings.
 The hardest thing about learning English is understanding the word meaning.
c) Gerund after prepositions
of, on, with, without, at, for, after, before, to, about, for, by, in
 We arrived in Madrid after driving all night.
 She avoided him by walking on the opposite side of the road.
d) Gerunds after phrasal verbs
Phrasal verbs are composed of a verb + preposition or adverb
 She always puts off going to the dentist.
 Jim ended up buying a new TV after his old one broke.
 The boy kept on asking for money.

There are some phrasal verbs that include the word ‘to’ as a preposition for example to look forward to, to take
to, to be accustomed to, to get around to, and to be used to.
It is important to recognise that the word ‘to’ is a preposition in these cases because it must be followed by a
gerund. It is not part of the infinitive form of the verb.
You can check whether ‘to’ is a preposition or part of the infinitive. If you can put the pronoun ‘it’ after the word
‘to’ and form a meaningful sentence, then the word ‘to’ is a preposition and must be followed by a gerund.
 I look forward to hearing from you soon.
 I am used to waiting for buses.
 When will you get around to mowing the grass?
 She gets used to living near the airport.
 Galihis accustomed to wearing a tie during his work.
‘Used to’ and ‘be + used to’
a. ‘Used to’ digunakan untuk menunjukkan kejadian atau kebiasaan di masa lalu dan tidak dilakukan
lagi sekarang. Bentuk ini diikuti dengan ‘V1’.
Contoh:
 We used to swim in the river when we were children.
 ‘Do you remember? There used to be fields of clover where those houses now.’
 ‘I never used to smoke, but now I smoke twenty a day.’
 ‘I used to buy really expensive make-up, but that was when I was working full-time.’

b. ‘be + used to’ digunakan untuk menunjukkan kebiasaan yang sedang atau masih dilakukan
sekarang, atau di masa depan. Bentuk ini diikuti dengan ‘Ving’.
Contoh:
 ‘These are very high heels, I know, but I’m sure you’ll get used to wearing them.’
 Don’t worry; you will be used to being in this hot weather.
 I am used to using email and sending text messages but my grandparents are clueless when it
comes to that stuff.

© LITBANG SG PUSAT 133 | P a g e


BUKU PANDUAN BAHASA INGGRIS

e) Gerunds after possessive adjective (my, your, his, her, our, their, Amir’s)
 His staring frightens me.
 His coming makes me happy.
f) Gerunds in compound nouns
 I am giving my son a driving lesson.
 They have a swimming pool in their backyard.
 My grandfather uses a walking stick for helping him walking.
g) Gerunds after some expressions
The gerund is necessary after the expression can’t help, can’t stand, to be worth, it’s no use
 She couldn’t help falling in love with him.
 I can’t stand being stuck in traffic jams.
 It’s no use trying to escape.
 It might be worth phoning the station to check the time of the train.
h) As a passive form
 I have three shirts that needwashing. (need to be washed)
 This letter requiressigning. (needs to be signed)
 The house wantsrepainting. (needs to be repainted)

2. An Infinitive is the ‘to’ form of the verb. Infinitive can be used as the subject, the complement, or the object of a
sentence.
1. As subject
 To learn English is important.
2. As complement
 The most important thing is to learn English.
 It is difficult to adapt in a new environment. (impersonal it complement)
3. As object
 He wants to learn English.
Note:
As the object of a sentence, it is more difficult to choose between a gerundoran infinitive. In such situations,
gerunds and infinitives are not normally interchangeable.
Usually, the main verb in the sentence determines whether it uses a gerund or an infinitive.
 He enjoys swimming. ‘enjoy’ requires a gerund
 He wants to swim. ‘want’ requires an infinitive

Below is the list of verbs followed by gerunds


admit can’t stand dislike keep practice require
advise cease don’t mind like prefer resent
allow complete dread love propose resist
anticipate consider encourage mention quit risk
appreciate continue enjoy mind recall start
avoid defend finish miss recollect stop
begin delay forget need recommend suggest
can’t bear deny hate neglect regret tolerate

CHAPTER 9

A. SONG
Based on Wikipedia.org, a song is a musical form of expression based on sound and silence, generally considered a single
(and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the human voice with distinct and fixed pitched, patterns,
and form.
Lyric is written words created specifically for music or for which music is specifically created.

Elements in song lyric:


1. Introduction : Introduction in lyric is a unique section that comes at the beginning of the piece. Generally
contains just music and no words.
2. Verse or stanza : The verse is the part of the song that tells a story. It gives listeners more insights leading to
the main message of the song and it moves the story forward. A song may have a number of
verses, depending on the form, consisting of several lines each.
3. Refrain : A refrain is a line (also can be the title) that is repeated at the end of every verse.
4. Pre-chorus or climb : This part of the song differs melodically and lyrically from the verse and comes before the
chorus. The reason why it’s called climb is because it heightens the anticipation of the
listeners for the coming climax which is the chorus.
5. Chorus : Chorus is the part of the song that often sticks to the mind of a listener because it contrasts
with the verse and is repeated several times.
The main theme is expressed in the chorus; the title of the song is usually included in the
chorus too.
6. Bridge : It is shorter than the verse and should offer a reason why the final chorus needs to be
repeated.
7. Conclusion or coda : It is the additional lines of a song which brings it to a close. The coda is an optional addition
to a song.

Differences between refrain and chorus:


Although both have lines that are repeated and may contain the title, the refrain and chorus vary in length. The refrain is
shorter than the chorus; often the refrain is composed of 2 lines while the chorus can be made up of several lines.
The chorus is also melodically, rhythmically and lyrically different from the verse and expresses the main message of the
song.

B. POETRY
Poetry (ancient Greek: poieo= (I create)) is an art form in which human language is used for its aesthetic qualities. It
consists largely of oral or literally works in which language is used in a manner that is felt by its user and audience to differ
from ordinary prose.
Poetry uses devices as assonance and repetition like in a song, figurative language such as metaphor, simile,
personification and alliteration.
When figurative language provides a picture that evokes any of the senses, it is called imagery. Imagery used to draw
readers into a sensory experience. Images will often provide us with mental snapshots that appeal to our senses of sight,
sound, taste, touch and smell.
There are five types of imagery:
(a) Visual (sight)
‘The bloody Sun, at noon,
Right up, above the mast did stand,No bigger than the Moon.’
(b) Auditory (sound)
These waters, rolling from their mountain – springs
With a soft inland murmur.

(c) Tactile (touch)


The fair breeze blew my face.
(d) Olfactory (smell)
I was awakened by the strong smell of a freshly brewed coffee.
(e) Gustatory (taste)
Sandalwood, cedar wood, and sweet white wine

Earthquake often happens around us. It brings great damages and is hard to be predicted and that may result in a
lot victim. Actually there are three kinds of earthquake commonly based on the factor and geological area where the
earthquakes happen. These three kinds of earthquake are tectonic, volcanic and explosion.

© LITBANG SG PUSAT 143 | P a g e


BUKU PANDUAN BAHASA INGGRIS

A tectonic earthquake is the most common one. This kind of earthquake happens while earth’s crust rocks break
because of the geological strength created by moving of the earth’s plates.
Volcanic earthquakes happen exactly with volcanic activity. Volcanic earthquakes are when the volcano produces
acidic lava, which dries quickly. As it dries up, it blocks the top of the volcano. This make no more magma can escape.
Pressure starts to build up and eventually the acidic lava can no longer stand the pressure. So the volcano is free to
explode, the pressure is released so fast that an earthquake is caused. A volcanic earthquake is usually kept within 10-20
miles of the volcano.
The third type of earthquake is the explosion earthquake. These are the result of the collapsed earthquakes which
are small earthquakes occurring in underground mines and caves.

Read the following text and answer the questions 6-10.


There are millions of plants and animals living in the sea. Most of the plants and animals living in the oceans are
extremely small and float near the surface of the water. They are food for huge numbers of small animals that also live
near the surface. Together, they are all known as plankton.
Many fish feed on this plankton, including one of the largest, the whale shark. Despite their great size, certain
whales live entirely on plankton. The blue whale is the largest animal ever to live. It grows to a length of over 100 feet.
The humpback whale is a smaller kind and has long flippers. It can jump right out the water. The Californian grey whale
makes long migrations every year – it spends the summer feeding in the Arctic but swims south to the warmer waters off
the coast of Mexico in the winter. The females give birth in the shallow, warm water there.
Many of the fish in the sea may be eaten by other meat-eaters. Sharks, for example, are some of the fastest
hunters, although not all of them eat other fish.
Deep down in the oceans live many strange fish. It is so dark down there that many of these fish have “light” on
them, which are used for attracting smaller fish for the larger ones to eat.
Jellyfish are peculiar-looking creatures ranging in size from a fraction of an inch to 6 feet across. They don’t really
swim but drift in the currents of the open oceans. Although they contain a powerful sting, they are often eaten by turtles.
Turtles are reptiles that spend most of their eggs on sandy beaches.

Read the following text and answer the questions 11-15.


Human body is actually a living machine and is like all other machines. This living machine needs fuel to supply it
with energy. The fuel is provided by the food which we eat. However do we know how much we need to stay healthy?
The energy value of food is usually measured in calories. A calorie is the amount of heat which is required to raise the
temperature of 1 kg of water by 1 degree C. The number of calories which people need per day varies. It depends on the
activity which the people are involved in. For example; people will need more calories for standing than for sitting, people
need more for running than for walking, etc.
The energy which is provided by food is in the form of three kinds of chemical substances. They are carbohydrate,
protein and fat. Carbohydrate provides 8.8 calories per gram (cal/gm) of energy, protein 4.0 cal/gm and fat 8.0 cal/gm.
Each food contains different proportion of these substances. These three chemical substances are all important for body
staying healthy.

Penguin is a kind of birds. Penguins can be found along the coast of Antarctica and on several Antarctica Island.
Penguins are well adapted to cold weather. Their short, stiff feathers form a dense waterproof coat that prevents excess
heat loss.
Male and female penguins are similar in appearance, although males usually weigh more than females. There are
also small differences in bill size between the sexes. All penguins have a black back and head and a white breast, but
individual species can be distinguished by certain physical characteristics. Penguin bills can be black or red, ranging in
shape from short and stout to long and curved.
Penguins spend most of their lives in water. They are well-known as excellent swimmers. Penguin feet are webbed
with three toes. They use their webbed feet as rudders when they travel long distances underwater. They commonly leap
out of the water to breathe.
All penguins eat only when they are in the water. They eat fish, squid, and crustaceans. Penguins search for food
while swimming near the water’s surface and then swiftly dive to pursue their prey.
Penguin colonies are breeding in areas where large numbers of penguins gather to mate, breed, and raise their
young. Penguins always return to the colony where they were born.

Teak is a tall evergreen tree. It has yellowish blonde to reddish brown wood. It attains a height of about 30 meter.
The fruit is a drupe. It has bluish to white flowers. It produces a large leaf, similar to a tobacco leaf. The bark is whitish
grey in colour. It generally grows straight with an uneven texture, medium lusture and an oily feel. The upper surface of
the tree is rough to touch and the inner surface has hairs. The fruit is enclosed by a bladder like calyx, which is light
brown, ribbed and papery.
New plants can also be propagated from cuttings, usually planted from four to six weeks old. The land is ploughed
thoroughly and levelled. The best season to plant teak is monsoon, most probably after the first shower. Weeding
operations are carried out regularly. Teak requires loamy soil rich in humus, with the right content of moisture and good

drainage. It grows well in hilly and dry areas. It requires a dry tropical climate for its growth. It flowers in February and
March.
Teak also has the medicinal value. The bark is bitter tonic and is considered useful for fevers. It is also useful for
headaches and stomach problems. Digestion may be enhanced by the teak wood or bark. Teak is commonly used for
furniture making, boat decks and indoor flooring. It is widely used to make house doors and windows. It is resistant to
attack by termites. Its wood contain scented oil which is repellent to insects. The leaves yield a dye, used for colouring
clothes and edible. Teak is probably the best protected commercial species in the world.

Paddlefish is the common name for the ray-finned fish comprising the family Polyodontidae of the Order
Acipenseriformes. It is characterised by an elongated, paddle-like snout with minute barbels, large mouth with minute
teeth and long gill rakers. The paddlefish family, Polyodontidae, is characterized by an elongated, spatula-like snout,
called a rostrum, which is longer than the rest of the head.
There are only two modern species of these fish, i.e. the plankton-feeding American paddlefish
(Polyodonspathula), found in the Mississippi River drainage system, and the piscivorous Chinese paddlefish
(Psephurusgladius), found in the Yangtze River.
Paddlefish are not closely related to sharks, which are in a different taxonomic class, but they do have several body
parts that resemble those of sharks such as their skeletons, primarily composed of cartilage and their deeply forked
heterocercal tail fins. As in many of the distantly related shark class, the paddlefish’s rostrum contains electroreceptors
that can detect weak electrical fields.
Paddlefish provide important economic, ecological and aesthetic values. During the last century, paddlefish and
sturgeon have been commercially exploited for their eggs (roe) called caviar. Paddlefish and sturgeon are two of the most
important fish for freshwater caviar. The large number of eggs produced by females also means they can be important in
food chains, with the young providing a food resource for predators. Their unique shape and large size also adds to the
joy of nature for humans, including sport fishing. However, exploitation and habitat changes, among other factors, have
significantly reduced the populations of paddlefish, with the Chinese paddlefish not having a confirmed sighting since
2007 and the American paddlefish no longer found in the Great Lakes region.

23. Which of the following statements is TRUE about 24. From the text, we know that the Chinese
paddlefish? paddlefish has been ...
(A) It has a small and long mouth. (A) Found (D) Bred
(B) It is mostly exploited for its meat. (B) Extinct (E) Killed
(C) It has a similar body shape as sharks. (C) Preserved
(D) Its rostrum can detect strong electrical fields

 A noun clause can be a subject complement.
Billy’s mistake was that he refused to take lessons.
 A noun clause can be an object of a preposition.
Mary is not responsible for what Billy did.

Kita dapat menggabung dua independent clause dengan merubah salah satunya ke dalam bentuk noun clause.
 Statement menjadi noun clause gunakan THAT
I know + Billy made a mistake.
→ I know that Billy made a mistake.
 Yes/No question menjadi noun clause gunakan IF/WHETHER
George wonders + Does Fred know how to cook?
→ George wonders if Fred knows how to cook.
 Wh-question menjadi noun clause gunakan WH- WORD
I don’t know + Where is George?
→ I don’t know where George is.

Noun clause dapat dikenali apabila terdapat penanda/markers:


 that
 if, whether
 Wh-words: how, what, when, where, which, who, whom, whose, why
 Wh-ever words; however, whatever, whenever, wherever, whichever, whoever, whomever

Pada noun clause dengan kata penanda di atas tidak dapat dihilangkan, kecuali untuk kata that.
Tetapi apabila that berada di awal kalimat, maka tidak dapat dihilangkan.
Billy’s friends didn’t know that he couldn’t swim. √
→ Billy’s friends didn’t know he couldn’t swim. √
Billy’s mistake was that he refused to take lesson. √
→ Billy’s mistake was he refused to take lesson. √
That Billy jumped off the pier surprised everyone. √
→ Billy jumped off the pier surprised everyone. Χ

Kalimat pernyataan selalu berbentuk noun clause meskipun main clause nya adalah kalimat tanya.
Do you know what time is it? Χ Everybody wondered where did Billy go. Χ

Some History of Rock

Rock music is a genre of popular music that originated as “rock and roll” in the United States in the 1950s, and
developed into a range of different styles in the 1960s and later, particularly in the United Kingdom and the United States.
It has its roots in 1940s’ and 1950s’ rock and roll, itself is heavily influenced by rhythm and blues and country music. Rock
music also drew strongly on a number of other genres such as blues and folk, and incorporated influenced from jazz,
classical and other musical sources.
Some says that rock is a timeless genre. As a loud and hard genre, rock will always be the voice of young, energized
people. It is also said that rock is a color of music the world will never able to survive without. There are many types of
rock, such as classic rock, progressive rock, and glam rock. Its lyrics often contain rebellious attitude and freedom theme.
1960 and 1970 is considered by many as the golden age of rock.
Rock music has also embodied and served as the vehicle for cultural and social movements, leading to major sub-
cultures including mods and rockers in the UK and the hippie counterculture that spread out from San Francisco in US in
the 1960s. Similarly, 1970s punk culture spawned the visually distinctive ‘goth’ and ‘emo’ subcultures. Inheriting the folk
tradition of the protest song, rock music has been associated with political activism as well as changes in social attitudes
to race, sex and drug use, and is often seen as an expression of youth revolt against adult consumerism and conformity.

B. PREPOSITIONAL PHRASE
A phrase is a group of words, without a subject or a verb, that functions in a sentence as a single part of speech. It cannot
stand alone as an independent unit. A phrase can function only as a part of speech.

A prepositional phrase is a group of words that begins with a preposition and ends with a noun or a pronoun. This noun or
pronoun is called the ‘object of the preposition’.

a) An adverbial phrase is a prepositional phrase that modifies a verb, an adjective, or an adverb.


To find out if a prepositional phrase is functioning as an adverbial phrase, see if it answers one of these questions:
“Where?” “When?” “In what manner?” “To what extent?”

 The rock climber arrived late at night.


The adverbial phrase ‘at night’ modifies the adverb ‘late’
 The boss was thrilled at their attitude.
The adverbial phrase ‘at their attitude’ modifies the adjective ‘thrilled’

b) An adjectival phrase is a prepositional phrase serves as an adjective.


It describes a noun or a pronoun.
 The manager with the pink slips terrorized the employees.
The adjectival phrase ‘with the pink slips’ describes the noun ‘manager’
 The price of the promotion was much too steep.
The adjectival phrase ‘of the promotion’ describes the noun ‘price’

Why the Cat Kills Rats
Long time ago, there lived Ansa. He was the king of Calabar for fifty years. He had a very faithful cat a housekeeper,
and a rat was his house–boy. The king was an obstinate, head strong man, but was very fond of the cat, who had been in
his store for many years.
The rat that was very poor, fell in love with one of the king’s servant girls, but was unable to give her any presents, as
he had no money.
At last he thought of the king’s store, so in the night time, being quite small, he had difficulty, having made a hole in
the roof, in getting into the store. He then stole corn and native pears and presented them to his sweetheart.
At the end of the month, when the cat had to render her account of the things in the store to the king, it was found
that a lot of corn and native pears were missing. The king was very angry at this and asked the cat for an explanation. But
the cat couldn’t account for the lost, until one of her friends told her that the rat had been stealing the corn and giving it to
the girl.
When the cat told the king, he called the girl before him and had her flogged. The rat handed over to the cat to deal
with, and dismissed them both from his service. The cat was so angry that she killed and ate the rat, and ever since that
time, whenever a cat sees a rat. She kills and eats it.

Jantur and Menur
Jantur and Menur were twins. Jantur was a boy and Menur was a girl and they had different personalities. Jantur
was lazy, he got angry easily. He always said bad words when he was angry. However, Menur was a very kind, diligent,
patient and always helped their parents. She always reminded her brother to behave well.
“Menur! Where are you? I’m hungry! Give me some food!” said Jantur. “Be patient Jantur I’m still cooking, the food
is not ready yet. Why don't you help me mop the floor? Father and mother will be home soon,” said Menur. “Arrrgggh!
What took you so long? I’m hungry, you are so slow!” said Janur. And he said bad words to Menur.
Menur was very sad. She cried. When their parents went home, Menur told them about Jantur’s bad behavior. Her
father then advised him. However, Jantur did not want to listen to him. He ignored him, and it was getting worse.
Jantur asked his parents and his sister to leave the house. They were very sad. They never thought that Jantur would
ask them to leave the house. After his parents and his sister left her house, Jantur lived alone. At first he felt very happy
because no one disturbed him. He could do anything he wanted. He even spent his parents’ money for bad things. When all
the money was gone, he sold his parents animals, cows, goats, cocks and hens.
Meanwhile, Menur and her parents lived in another place. When they left home, they did not bring anything.
Because they worked very hard, they could build a new home and they had new animals. They were rich.
How about Jantur? Soon all his parents’ wealth was gone. Jantur was lazy, he did not want to work. He wanted to
have much money in an easy way. So he sold the last wealth, it was the house. After Jantur sold the house, again, he spent
the money foolishly. It was not surprising that Jantur became poor again.
He did not have any money and he did not have a house. His body was very thin. He suffered skin disease; his skin
was full of black dots.
Jantur did not have a way to go, he just walked and walked. Finally, he arrived at his parents’ house. Menur was in
front of the house sweeping the floor. At first, they did not recognize each other. Menur thought that Jantur was a beggar.
“Are you hungry? Here, I have some food,” said Menur. Jantur was happy. He was so hungry that he did not
recognize his sister. However Menur knew him. “Jantur? Is that you brother? Father, mother, Jantur is here!!” screamed
Menur. “Jantur my son, what happened to you?” said his mother. Jantur was surprised. “Mother, is that really you? Father,

The Tyrant who became a Just Ruler
In the olden times there was a king who was so cruel and unjust toward his subjects that he was always called the
Tyrant. So heartless was he that his people used to pray night and day that they might have a new king.
One day, much to their surprise, he called his people together and said to them, “My dear subjects, the days my
tyranny are over. Henceforth, you shall live in peace and happiness, for I have decided to try my rule henceforth justly and
well.”
The King kept his words so well that soon he was known throughout the land as the Just King. By and one of his
favorites came to him said,” Your Majesty I beg you to tell me how it was that you had this change of heart towards our
people,”
And the King replied, “As I was galloping through my forests one afternoon, I caught sight of a hound chasing a fox.
The fox escaped into his hole, but not until he had been bitten by dog so badly that he would be lame for life. The hound,
returning home, met a man who threw a stone at him, which broke his leg. And the horse, starting to run, fell into a hole
and broke his leg. Here I came to my senses, and resolve to change rule.” For surely, “He who does evil will sooner later be
overtaken by evil.”

A beggar found a leather purse that someone had dropped in the market place. Opening it, he discovered that it
contained 100 pieces of gold. Then he heard a merchant shout, “A reward! A reward will be given to the one who finds my
leather purse!”
Being an honest man, the beggar came forward and handed the purse to the merchant saying, “Here is your purse.
May I have the reward now?”
“Reward?” scoffed the merchant, greedily counting his gold. “Why the purse I dropped had 200 pieces of gold in it.
You’ve already stolen more than the reward! Go away or I’ll tell the police.”
“I’m an honest man,” said the beggar defiantly. “Let us take this matter to the court.”
In court, the judge patiently listened to both sides of the story and said, “I believe you both. Justice is possible!
Merchant, you stated that the purse you lost contained 200 pieces of gold. Well, that’s a considerable cost. But, the purse
this beggar found had only 100 pieces of gold. Therefore, it couldn’t be the one you lost.”
And, with that, the judge gave the purse and all the gold to the beggar.

Long ago there lived a king who was ill and had only one way for him to recover; he had to stay on the top of a
mountain where he could inhale fresh air and live peacefully. Knowing this, the king delegate his duties to the minister as
the prince, Prince Agung, was still too young to become a ruler. He would return to the kingdom when he was healthy.
Time passed. Feeling comfortable as a ruler, the minister had a wicked thought. “If I can get rid of the king, I will be
the king,” the minister thought, “my family will live happily.”
To facilitate his plan, he sent his loyal fellow to meet the king to get rid of him. The minister laughed happily,
dreaming of becoming the next king.
The minister’s fellow had arrived at the inn where the King, Queen and their people stayed. He greeted them and
told them of his intention. “Good afternoon, Your Majesty. The minister asks me to meet you and ask your condition. He
always prays for your health.” The king was happy knowing his minister was attentive. After chatting for a while, he
allowed the man to have a rest and stay in a tent not far from his room. He asked his servants to serve the man well.
When night arrived, the man got out from the tent and approached the king’s room. He successfully entered the
room, but he was speechless knowing his kind and wise king slept soundly. “How could I kill this good man?” the man
thought. “No, I won’t. I’m going to tell him about the minister’s real motive. I hope the king will forgive me.” He left the
king’s room immediately.
The following morning, the man met the king and informed him accordingly. However, the king wasn’t shocked as
he had already predicted. The king told the man that, in fact, he was all right. He just wanted proof that the minister had
bad intentions. He had been asking the commander and the prince to keep an eye on him. They would arrest the minister
with their own hands.

THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT
Trapped heat in the atmosphere of the earth results in the greenhouse effect, but how does it happen? First, the
sun warms the earth, and then heat is trapped by certain gases in the atmosphere that act like the glasses in a
greenhouse. Usually this heat is essential to prevent freezing temperature on earth, but as the levels of these gases are
increased, more heat is created than is necessary. Yet that is exactly what is happening on earth today. The rising level of
gases comes from the major man-made sources: chlorofluorocarbons (a gas that escapes from refrigerators, air
conditioners, plastic foams, and spray cans) and carbon dioxide (a gas that comes from burning fossil fuels like coal and
automobile gasoline emissions). The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has grown more than 25% since the
Industrial Revolution, and over 11% since 1958. As a result of the raised level of these two gases, “global warming” is
occurring; the earth is getting warmer.

Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent
decades and its projected continuation. The global average air temperature near the Earth's surface rose 0.74 ± 0.18 °C
(1.33 ± 0.32 °F) during the 100 years ending in 2005.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes "most of the observed increase in globally
averaged temperature since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic
greenhouse gas concentrations" via the greenhouse effect. Natural phenomena such as solar variation combined with
volcanoes probably had a small warming effect from pre-industrial times to 1950 and a small cooling effect from 1950
onward. These basic conclusions have been endorsed by at least 30 scientific societies and academies of science,
including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries. While individual scientists have
voiced disagreement with some findings of the IPCC, the overwhelming majority of scientists working on climate change
agree with the IPCC's main conclusions.

BUKU PANDUAN BAHASA INGGRIS

Climate model projections summarized by the IPCC indicate that average global surface temperature will likely rise
a further 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) during the 21st century. The range of values results from the use of differing
scenarios of future greenhouse gas emissions as well as models with differing climate sensitivity. Although most studies
focus on the period up to 2100, warming and sea level rise are expected to continue for more than a thousand years even
if greenhouse gas levels are stabilized. The delay in reaching equilibrium is a result of the large heat capacity of the
oceans.
Increasing global temperature will cause sea level to rise, and is expected to increase the intensity of extreme
weather events and to change the amount and pattern of precipitation. Other effects of global warming include changes
in agricultural yields, trade routes, glacier retreat, species extinctions and increases in the ranges of disease vectors.
Remaining scientific uncertainties include the amount of warming expected in the future, and how warming and
related changes will vary from region to region around the globe. Most national governments have signed and ratified the
Kyoto Protocol aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, but there is ongoing political and public debate worldwide
regarding what, if any, action should be taken to reduce or reverse future warming or to adapt to its expected
consequences.

How Chocolate is Made?
Have we wondered how we get chocolate from? Well this time we will enter the amazing world of chocolate so we
can understand exactly we are eating.
Chocolate starts a tree called cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in place such as South
America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside the fruits are
the tree’s seeds. They are also known as cocoa beans.
Next, the beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun. After that they are shipped to the chocolate
maker. The chocolate maker starts by roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different places
have different qualities and flavour. So, they are often shorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix.
The next process is winnowing. The roasted beans are winnowed to remove the meat nib of the cacao bean from
its shell. Then the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor.
It tastes bitter.
All seeds contain some amount of fat and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat, which
is why the ground nibs from liquid. It is pure bitter chocolate.

The issue we are discussing is whether women need higher education or not. Some people think that there is no

does not ensure women to get better life, so why bother about it?

On the other hand, some other people believe that women also have right to pursue higher education. They claim
that education is important for everyone, including women, because it is one way to improve the quality of life. Therefore
every woman must get education as high as they can pursue.

1939, it has become one of the most important facts of modern life. Television is very much part of the modern world. Its
effects are felt all over the world.
Television has a great influence on our ideas about what is right and wrong about the way we should behave, and
about life in general. Sometimes, the values and life styles that we get from television are in conflict with those that are
taught at home and, at school. Critics of television point out that crime and western programs often appeal to a taste of
violence, while many games show appear to greed. Many critics also believe that television should be used for socially
constructive purposes as well as for entertainment. Television is a reflection of the modern world, say some people. It
shows contemporary society. It affects customs and culture, other say. Television is bad for culture because it keeps
culture from growing, say still others.
Good or bad, television is difficult to avoid. Its pictures enter homes, stores, airports, and factories. It is here to
stay!

TASK 2
Read the following text and then answer the questions!
Is Tourism Good for a Community?
Lots of tourists visit our town but many people argue about whether that is good or bad for the community. Each
side has good reasons for their point of view.
Those in favor of the tourist industry say that tourism brings money to the town and creates employment.
Business owners say it promotes development in the town therefore everyone benefits from having better facilities and
more shops. Supporters also argue that tourism develops a better understanding of other cultures so the town people
become more tolerant.
People against tourism say that most of the tourist dollars are spent in international hotels owned by foreign
interests so the town gets very little financial benefit. They point out that new developments have caused traffic and
water supply problems that were not there in the past. In addition, they argue that there have been several unpleasant
incidents in the community indicating that the local community resents tourists.
The local council tries to please both sides. It promotes tourism but restricts new development because of the
traffic and water supply problems.

There are many (1) ____________ why one should live in the countryside and this essay will highlight some of the
advantages and disadvantages of living in the countryside.
The best reason why one should live in the countryside is the amount of space available there. The countryside
offers us much more land to live on. We can live in our own house with our own private garden. This enhances the spirit
of independence and helps good (2) ____________ growth. Nature is everywhere and abundant: there is a large variety
of flora and fauna life.
In the countryside, one can live in a calm and (3) ____________ environment without the immediate stress of
work, noise and pollution. Living amidst nature makes us physically strong and stable. It also provides prevention of many

diseases while medical facilities in urban areas provide only cures. One example proves the point: the smell and aroma
coming to our lungs and body from plants and muck increase our (4) ____________ and enable us to fight many diseases.
Another advantage of living in countryside is that, people usually live in close knit communities. People there have
much more fellow feelings and come to each other’s help in need and emergencies. It is beneficial to have a bond with
our community members, as they will, in turn, offer us immediate (5) ____________, support and emotional comfort in
life.
In economic terms villages are vitally important because a country’s food is grown in villages and supply of raw
materials for industry comes from the countryside. Villages are a silent part of a nation’s (6) ____________ activities.
Of course there are some disadvantages of the countryside, some serious and some less. There is the problem of
communication. Communication here not only means telecommunication, but also transportations. In this case, the
countryside sometimes lacks both. Involving telecommunication, service providers do not usually provide proper TV or
telephone reception. Only recently has mobile telecommunication reduced this (7) ____________. There is then the
problem of travel. Usually, the countryside is situated quite far from the cities, and road networks are not available or are
quite poor.
Other difficulties also arise due to the location of the village. For example the village is located far from a city;
there may be a limited commercial activity. As a result of it, a wide variety of goods and services are not easily available.
This is quite (8) ____________, as goods and services such as clothes, technology, modern and adequate healthcare,
higher education etcetera may not be at people’s doors and for those they have to travel to urban centers. It is an issue
because villages may only be able to provide a primary and secondary education, but students will have to travel to cities
to receive college and higher education. There is also absence of institutions of technical education. Another (9)
____________ is linked to absence of modern healthcare. There is also sanitation problem. Even today, there are some
villages which have open air latrines, and this reduces the quality of hygiene.
In conclusion, living in the (10) ____________ has both its charms and its difficulties. Now, decide yourself, where
you prefer to live in.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
By J.K. Rowling
Reviewed by Emily Kremer

The story takes place in modern times, in England. The main character is Harry Potter. Harry Potter is a wizard. He
goes to a school for witches and wizards, called Hogwarts.
It’s Harry’s second year at Hogwarts. He and his two best friends, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, are having a
great time learning magic. There is a new professor, Gilderoy Lockhart who all the witches are crazy about! Professor
Lockhart keeps hogging Harry, because the professor thinks that Harry tries to get attention to be famous! While all the
witches at school love the new professor, all of the wizards think he is a big joke!
After a month of school at Hogwarts, strange attacks begin to happen. First, the caretaker’s cat, Mrs. Norris, has
been found, not died, but petrified! Not only was Filch’s cat attacked, but some of the Muggle-born students at Hogwarts
have been found petrified, also. Naturally, most of the students are frightened at this, but they become even more scared
when the next victim to be found petrified is the Gryfindor ghost. Nearly headless Nick!
What kind of monster is powerful enough to kill someone who is already dead? Who will be the next victims of the
monster at Hogwarts? Will the victims ever be revived? To find out, you must read Harry Potter and the Chamber of
Secrets. I have to say that the story was bright, fast paced, intriguing, and ultimately satisfying.
I like this book because it keeps me wanting to read next page, and the next, and so on. The book is definitely a
page-turner! I recommend this book to nine years old and over.
