Read text carefully and see the translation
Cars should be banned in the city
Cars should be banned in the city. As we all know, cars create pollution, and cause a lot of road
deaths and other accidents.
Firstly, cars, as we all know, contribute to most of the pollution in the world. Cars emit a deadly
gas that causes illnesses such as bronchitis, lung cancer, and ‘triggers’ of asthma. Some of
these illnesses are so bad that people can die from them.
Secondly, the city is very busy. Pedestrians wander everywhere and cars commonly hit
pedestrians in the city, which causes them to die. Cars today are our roads biggest killers.
Thirdly, cars are very noisy. If you live in the city, you may find it hard to sleep at night, or
concentrate on your homework, and especially talk to someone.
In conclusion, cars should be banned from the city for the reasons listed.

Translation
Mobil seharusnya dilarang di kota. Seperti yang kita semua tahu, mobil menciptakan polusi, dan
menyebabkan banyak kematian di jalan dan kecelakaan lainnya.
Pertama, mobil, seperti yang kita semua tahu, berkontribusi terhadap sebagian besar polusi di
dunia. Mobil mengeluarkan gas mematikan yang menyebabkan penyakit seperti bronkitis, kanker
paru-paru, dan ‘pemicu’ asma. Beberapa penyakit ini begitu buruk bahwa orang bisa mati dari
mereka.
Kedua, kota ini sangat sibuk. Pejalan kaki berjalan di mana-mana dan mobil umumnya menabrak
pejalan kaki di kota, yang menyebabkan mereka mati. Mobil saat ini adalah pembunuh jalan
terbesar kami.
Ketiga, mobil sangat bising. Jika Anda tinggal di kota, Anda mungkin merasa sulit untuk tidur di
malam hari, atau sulit berkonsentrasi pada pekerjaan Anda, dan terutama berbicara dengan
seseorang.
Kesimpulannya, mobil harus dilarang dari kota karena alasan yang tercantum.

Is Smoking Good for Us?

Before we are going to smoke, it is better to look at the fact. About 50 thousands people die
every year in Britain as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many as die in road
accidents. Nearly a quarter of smokers die because of diseases caused by smoking.
Ninety percent of lung cancers are caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day, we are
six times more likely to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes a
day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five percent of people who suffer of bronchitis are people
who are smoking. Smokers are two and half times more likely to die of heart disease than non
smokers.
Additionally, children of smoker are more likely to develop bronchitis and pneumonia. In one hour
in smoky room, non smoker breathes as much as substance causing cancer as if he had smoked
fifteen cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco companies because they do make much money from
smoking habit. Smoking however is not good for every body else.

Contoh Analytical Exposition Text – Controlling Children Using Computer

Computer and internet are useful as well as powerful. Information about health and safe usage of
computer and Internet, especially for children, should be owned by each family. Computer
connected to internet is powerful way to socialize with others. It can be good but also bad effect.
Recently we hear a lot of children get the advantage of social networking sites but we often see
the news about the disadvantage of it for children. Healthy and safety of computer and Internet
usage should continue to be campaigned.

The role of parent in assisting and directing children in using computer is very necessary.
Installation of software monitor such as key logger which has function to watch and note all
activities relating to keyboard usage is helpful but not enough to protect children from potential
harms. Children tend to hide what they have done in front of the computer to their parent. They
see that all of they have done are their privacy and no one may know.
We can not prevent children from using computer because it is multifunctional. However, many
parents worry about what their kids do in front of the computer; whether they are doing
homework or even just playing games. Or spending all time to surf internet which is the materials
do not fit with his age. There is a tendency, especially teenagers, want to become acquainted
with many strangers out side. The lack parental supervision of children’s activities is likely to
pose a potential danger to them. So parental monitor against the use of computers needs to be
done from time to time.

Terjemahan – Mengontrol Anak Menggunakan Komputer

Komputer dan internet sangat berguna sekaligus bertenaga. Informasi tentang kesehatan dan
penggunaan komputer dan internet yang aman, terutama untuk anak-anak, harus dimiliki oleh
masing-masing keluarga. Komputer yang terhubung ke internet adalah cara ampuh untuk
bersosialisasi dengan orang lain. Bisa bagus tapi juga berpengaruh buruk. Baru-baru ini kita
mendengar banyak anak mendapatkan keuntungan dari situs jejaring sosial namun kita sering
melihat berita tentang kerugiannya untuk anak-anak. Sehat dan amannya penggunaan komputer
dan internet harus terus dikampanyekan.

Peran orang tua dalam membantu dan mengarahkan anak dalam menggunakan komputer
sangat diperlukan. Pemasangan monitor perangkat lunak seperti keylogger yang berfungsi untuk
melihat dan mencatat semua aktivitas yang berkaitan dengan penggunaan keyboard sangat
membantu namun tidak cukup untuk melindungi anak-anak dari bahaya potensial. Anak-anak
cenderung menyembunyikan apa yang telah mereka lakukan di depan komputer ke orang tua
mereka. Mereka melihat bahwa semua yang telah mereka lakukan adalah privasi mereka dan
tidak ada yang tahu.

Kita tidak bisa mencegah anak menggunakan komputer karena multifungsi. Namun, banyak
orang tua khawatir tentang apa yang anak-anak mereka lakukan di depan komputer; apakah
mereka mengerjakan pekerjaan rumah atau bahkan sekedar bermain game. Atau menghabiskan
sepanjang waktu untuk berselancar internet yang bahannya tidak sesuai usianya. Ada
kecenderungan, terutama remaja, ingin berkenalan dengan banyak orang asing di luar.
Kurangnya pengawasan orangtua terhadap aktivitas anak cenderung menimbulkan bahaya bagi
mereka. Jadi monitor orang tua terhadap penggunaan komputer perlu dilakukan dari waktu ke
waktu.

Example of Analytical Exposition – Why is It Important to Choose the Accredited School?

Most of teenagers need to go to school and there are a lot of schools over there. Nowadays,
schools grow to offer plenty of choice; private and state ones. However it is a hard choice since
there are many factors which need to be considered before making the selection. Some will be
influenced by friends; because some friend got to certain school than we go to there too. Some
prefer to choose certain school because of the closer distance. In fact, the primary decisive
matter for selecting school is whether the school has been accredited or not.

Why is important to choose an accredited school? Well, accredited schools have an edge over
the unaccredited schools. This label of Accredited School has an impact in employment
opportunities. As result, if there are two or more students with similar qualifications, the student
who comes from the accredited school will have an edge over the other candidate. Student from
an accredited school has more open door than student with an accredited one.

Many students select certain school depending more on short term factors like friend influence
and short distance from home. It is not bad since commuting actually needs much cost.
Choosing school which is closer to home will save time, energy and money. However if that
school is not accredited, the time and money spent along studying seems to be waste in the long
term because it could become a limiting factor in gaining future opportunities.
Accredited school is not the only factor which will drive student’s success. Personality and
characterization are very important too. However a student with good personality who comes
from an accredited school is better than the others.

Generic structure of analytical exposition

Analytical exposition is one of argumentative texts which present some supporting idea on why
certain writer’s opinion is important. The opinion is formulated in a thesis which needs to prove
by selecting arguments.

The above example of analytical exposition about accredited school has the following generic
structure:

Thesis: it is the main topic of discourse in analytical exposition essay. Commonly the thesis will
be placed in the first paragraphs. It also has functionality of introduction of the text. From the text
above we see that choosing school will be wiser and safer if it is based on the status of the
school; accredited or not.

Arguments: the arguments are the heart of an analytical exposition. The absence of argument,
analytical will just talk nothing since a thesis must be evaluated, whether it is true or false later, it
does not matter. From the analytical exposition sample above, we see an accredited school
graduate will hold better opportunity. Additionally choosing school based on short term interests
seem to be less benefit in the end.

Reiteration: it is the writer’s thesis which is re-stated in another word. The purpose is to
strengthen the thesis. From the text above, we realize that choosing an accredited school is
really important.

Terjemahan – Mengapa Penting Memilih Sekolah Terakreditasi?

Sebagian besar remaja perlu pergi ke sekolah dan ada banyak sekolah di sana. Saat ini, sekolah
tumbuh untuk menawarkan banyak pilihan; swasta dan negara. Namun itu adalah pilihan yang
sulit karena ada banyak faktor yang perlu dipertimbangkan sebelum melakukan seleksi.
Beberapa akan dipengaruhi oleh teman; Karena ada teman yang sampai ke sekolah tertentu dari
kita ke sana juga. Beberapa lebih memilih untuk memilih sekolah tertentu karena jaraknya lebih
dekat. Sebenarnya, hal utama yang menentukan untuk memilih sekolah adalah apakah sekolah
tersebut telah terakreditasi atau tidak.

Mengapa penting memilih sekolah terakreditasi? Nah, sekolah terakreditasi memiliki keunggulan
atas sekolah-sekolah yang tidak terakreditasi. Label Sekolah Terakreditasi ini memiliki dampak
pada kesempatan kerja. Akibatnya, jika ada dua atau lebih siswa dengan kualifikasi serupa,
siswa yang berasal dari sekolah terakreditasi akan memiliki keunggulan dibanding kandidat
lainnya. Siswa dari sekolah terakreditasi memiliki pintu yang lebih terbuka daripada siswa yang
terakreditasi.

Banyak siswa memilih sekolah tertentu lebih bergantung pada faktor jangka pendek seperti
pengaruh teman dan jarak dekat dari rumah. Hal ini tidak buruk karena komuter sebenarnya
membutuhkan banyak biaya. Memilih sekolah yang lebih dekat ke rumah akan menghemat
waktu, energi dan uang. Namun jika sekolah itu tidak terakreditasi, waktu dan uang yang
dihabiskan sepanjang belajar nampaknya terbuang dalam jangka panjang karena bisa menjadi
faktor pembatas dalam mendapatkan peluang masa depan.

Sekolah terakreditasi bukanlah satu-satunya faktor yang akan mendorong kesuksesan siswa.
Kepribadian dan karakterisasi juga sangat penting. Namun seorang siswa dengan kepribadian
baik yang berasal dari sekolah terakreditasi lebih baik dari yang lain.

T HE
P ARTICIPLE
Recognize a participle
when you see one.

Participles come in two varieties: past and present. They are

two of the five forms or principal parts that every verb has.

Look at the charts below.

Regular Verbs:

Simple Simple Past Present

Verb Infinit
Present Past Partic iple Partic iple

giggle giggle(s) giggled giggled giggling to gigg

help help(s) helped helped helping to hel

jump jump(s) jumped jumped jumping to jum

Irregular Verbs:

Simple Simple Past Present

Verb Infinit
Present Past Partic iple Partic iple

bring bring(s) brought brought bringing to brin

ring ring(s) rang rung ringing to rin

 sing sing(s) sang sung singing to sin

swim swim(s) swam swum swimming to swi

Notice that each present participle ends in ing. This is the case

100 percent of the time.

On the other hand, you can see that past participles do not have

a consistent ending. The past participles of all regular verbs

end in ed; the past participles of irregular verbs, however, vary

considerably. If you look at bring and sing, for example, you'll

see that their past participles—brought and sung—do not

follow the same pattern even though both verbs have ing as the

last three letters.

Consult a dictionary whenever you are unsure of a verb's past

participle form.

Know the functions of

participles.

Participles have three functions in sentences. They can be

components of multipart verbs, or they can function

as adjectives or nouns.

Participles in Multipart Verbs

A verb can have as many as four parts. When you form

multipart verbs, you use a combination of auxiliary verbs and

participles. Look at the examples below:

Our pet alligator ate Mrs. Ols en's poodle.

Ate = simple past tense [no participle].

Wi th a broom, Mrs . Ols en was beating our alli gator

over the head in an attempt to retri ev e her poodl e.

Was = auxiliary verb; beating = present participle.

Our pet alligator has been stalking nei ghborhood

pets bec ause my brother Bill y forgets to feed the

poor reptil e.

Has = auxiliary verb; been = past participle; stalking =

present participle.
Our pet al l i gator should have been eating Gator

Chow, c runc hy nuggets that Bill y l eaves for him i n a

bowl .

Should, have = auxiliary verbs; been = past

participle; eating = present participle.

Participles as Adjectives

Past and present participles often function as adjectives that

describe nouns. Here are some examples:

The crying baby drew a l ong breath and s uck ed i n a

s pi der crouching i n the c orner of the c ri b.

Which baby? The crying baby. Which spider? The one that

was crouching in the corner.

The mangled pai r of

s ungl ass es , bruised fac e, broken arm,

and bleeding k nees meant Genette had taken

another s pill on her mountain bik e.

Which pair of sunglasses? The mangled pair. Which face?

The bruised one. Which arm? The broken one. Which knees?

The bleeding ones.

Participles as Nouns

Present participles can function as nouns—the subjects, direct

objects, indirect objects, objects of prepositions, and subject

complements in sentences. Whenever a present participle

functions as a noun, you call it a gerund.

Take a look at these examples:

Sneezing exhaus ts Steve, who requires eight

tiss ues and twenty-s ev en Gesundhei ts before he is

done.

Sneezing = the subject of the verb exhausts.

Val erie hates cooking because sc raping burnt gook

out of pans alwa ys undermines her enj oyment of the

food.

Cooking = the direct object of the verb hates.

W e gav e bungee jumping a c hanc e.

Bungee jumping = indirect object of the verb gave.

J oelle bit her tongue i ns tead of criticiz ing her prom

date's powder bl ue tuxedo.

Criticizing = object of the preposition instead of.

Omar's l east favori te s port is water-skiing bec aus e

a bad s pill onc e caus ed him to l os e his swi m trunks .

Water-skiing = the subject complement of the verb is.
