Description is about sensory experience how something looks, sounds, tastes. Mostly it is
about visual experience, but description also deals with other kinds of perception. Is a text
which says what a person or a thing is like. Description is its purpose is to describr and reveal
a particular person, place, or thing.

descriptive text is to tell about the subject by describing its features without including
personal opinion. There are important parts in descriptive text that must be taught as follows :
1. Social function

of this text is describing things. Can be person, animal, or place (a specific thing like our

The generic structures of descriptive texts are identivication and description which
identifies the person, place, or thing to be described and description which describe parts,
qualities and characteristics.
A typical descriptives text has an opening paragraph introducting the subject of the
description; followed by a series of paragraph, each describing one feature of the subject.
There can be also a final concluding section that signals the and the description.
3. Linguistic features
The linguistic features of descriptive texts are focused on specific participants, use of
attributive and identifyng process, frequent use epithets and classifier in nominal groups. The
vocabularies, which are often used in descriptive texts are words that are related to name of
place: location, purpose, beneficial, presentation, and evidence of today, which are needed

Based on perception in space. Impressionistic descriptions of landscapes or persons are

below Monterey, on the wild coast, the Torres family had their farm, a few sloping acres
above the cliff that dropped to the brown reefs and to the hissing white waters of the ocean ...

person, place, object or event e.g. to: describe a special place and explain why it is
special describe the most important person in your life describe the animal's habitat
in your report Descriptive writing is usually used to help a writer develop an aspect of
their work, e.g. to create a particular mood, atmosphere or describe a place so that the
reader can create vivid pictures of characters, places, objects etc.

b. Features Description is a style of writing which can be useful for a variety of

purposes: to engage a reader's attention to create characters to set a mood or
create an atmosphere to bring writing to life.
c. Language Description is a aims to show rather than tell the reader what
something/someone is like relies on precisely chosen vocabulary with carefully
chosen adjectives and adverbs. is focused and concentrates only on the aspects that
add something to the main purpose of the description. sensory description - what is
heard, seen, smelt, felt, tasted. Precise use of adjectives, similes, metaphors to create
images/pictures in the mind e.g. their noses were met with the acrid smell of rotting
flesh. strong development of the experience that "puts the reader there" focuses on
key details, powerful verbs and precise nouns.
D. TYPES OF DESCRIPTIVE
1. Texts distinctively correlate with the contextual factors in a communication situation.
They conventionally focus the addressees attention only on specific factors and
circumstances from the whole set of factors. Accordingly, texts can be grouped
together and generally classified on the basis of their dominant contextual focus
2. Focus on factual phenomena in the spatial context: descriptive texts
3. Focus on factual/conceptual phenomena in the temporal context: narrative texts
4. Focus on de-composition (analysis) into constituent elements, or the composition
(synthesis) from constituent elements of concepts: expository texts
5. Focus on the relations between concept: argumentative texts

6. Focus on observable future behaviour: instructive texts

7. Sea
Boundless beaches of the finest sand, dream-like bays, sheer cliffs plunging into
the sea, rocks carved by the wind to form sculptures with surprising forms,
townships proud to show themselves in all their beauty to those arriving from the
sea. The sea is the sound track to a journey through Italy, accompanying all travellers
with its intense landscapes, its strong scent, its unexpected views, and the brilliant
colours of its waters. Over seven thousand kilometres of coastline frame this country
that extends smoothly into the Mediterranean. The itinerary offers enormous variety,
from the steep slopes of the Ligurian Sea, to the pleasant beaches of Versilia, the
villages clinging to the rocky Amalfi Coast, the rugged countryside of Calabria, and
the boundless sands of the Adriatic coastline. Seven thousand kilometres dotted by a
succession of welcoming ports, charming cities steeped in history, unspoilt beaches
and solitary inlets. Not to mention the dozens of islands, from imposing Sicily and
Sardinia to tiny Gorgona, which emerge from the waters to add a touch of magic to
Italy's seas. Renowned islands such as Capri, favoured by the international jet set,
charming spots such as the Aeolian islands, a Unesco world heritage site, or popular
spots such as Elba, chosen by Napoleon as his place of exile. Then there are solitary
islands such as Ustica, lying right in the heart of the Tyrrhenian Sea, or Pantelleria,
Italy's southernmost outpost in the Mediterranean. Under the surface of the sea we
found the gateway to another enchanted world. Thanks to the crystal clear water, you
can admire the luxuriant sea bed with its multicoloured undersea forests and
marvellous inhabitants: gigantic groupers, fascinating jellyfish, and shy moray eels.
And all surrounded by vast shoals of colourful fish, which satisfy their curiosity by
patrolling the countless wrecks resting on the bottom.
