DIRECTION : Please answer the following questions briefly!

1. What is a main idea of paragraph? Please, explain briefly how to find it!

The fact that electronic computers are now used for data processing has led the
general public to believe that it is a mysterious, complicated science and that the
computers are giant brains. Both of these ideas are false. A computer is basically just a
high-speed adding machine that performs the functions it is told to. If the input data are
varied even a little, the computer is unable to operate until it is programmed to accept the
variations. The business operations it performs are impressive only because of the
extremely high speed of manipulation, but most of these operations have been used for
decades. Unlike man, the computer performs repetitive calculations without getting tired
or bored.

3. Pronouns or pronouns ore words that can replace a noun or noun phrase. The function
pronoun avoids repeating the same noun or phrase that was mentioned before. In english,
pronouns consist of seven types, namely: a.) Reflexive pronoun, b.) possessive pronoun
(kata ganti), c.) personal pronoun (kata ganti orang), d.) interrogative pronoun.
4. Inferential means in the class of adjectives or adjectives so inferential can change nouns
or pronouns, usually by explaining them or making them more specific. Literal meaning
or riteral meaning / meaning is the meaning of the word as its origin. Because this
meaning is listed in the dictionary (lexicon) as leksem, this meaning can also be called
lexical meaning or the most basic meaning. Literal meaning or meaning is usually
contrasted with grammatical meanings. Soedjito (1986) explains that the lexical meaning
is the word meaning independently, without relation to other words in a construction.
5. Contoh literal / harfiah : the first example (a) becomes a basic word that has not been
studied. Keywords: KBBI the maening of the word “home” is a building for residence.
While the second example (b) is a derivative word. The second example (b) has a
different meaning from the first meaning (a) even though the basic word is the same, that
is home. Adding prefixes to the word “house” makes the meaning of “home” unable to
change buildings for living quarters. This second example is called grammatical meaning.
Contoh inferential : a.) As a result of the decline in oil production by the world’s oil-
predicted oil prices will double in the coming years.
b.) assuming that damage to “Toroja” coffee plants is less than 30% due last winter, then
price of this type of coffee will not be more than the and of the year 2,500 rupiah per one
kilogram.
