Activity 4

Selain ungkapan untuk menanyakan sesuatu atau tujuan dalam dialog sebelu mnya juga
terdapat ungkapan untuk meminta pengulangan (repetition). Pengulangan,
maksudnya meminta dklarifikasi atas pertanyaan yang kurang jelas maksudnya atau
bisa kurang dipahami oleh pendengar.
Perhatikan potongan dialog berikut :
Immigration : Hi anything to declare?

Alex : Excuse me, I don’t understand.

Immigration : Do you have any valuable or alcohol to declare?

Alex : No, nothing at all.

Immigration : Ok you can go ahead.

Alex : Thank you.


Dari dialog diatas, ketika Alex berkata Excuse me, I don’t understand bisa dikatakan bahwa
awalnya Alex kurang memahami pertanyaan yang ditanyakan oleh petugas bandara.
Dengan mendengar perkataan Alex, maka petugas secara spontan akan mengulangi
dengan memberika penjelasan secukupnya akan maksud pertanyaannya.
Dengan demikian, maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa ungkapan yang digaris bawahi
tersebut merupakan salah satu contoh ungkapan untuk meminta klarifikasi atau
pengulangan. Selain ungkapan tersebut, ada beberapa contoh lain, diantaranya:
 Can you repeat your question?
 Would you like to say it again?
 I beg your pardon, I don’t understand.
Artinya:
1. Bisakah anda mengulangi pertanyaan anda?
2. Maukah anda mengatakannya lagi?
3. Maaf, saya tidak mengerti.

Coba cari ungkapan lain yang maksudnya adalah meminta pengulangan

special denominations?
Alex : I beg your pardon?
Officer : How would you like your money? In twenties, fifties or hundred dollars
bills?
Alex : A hundred dollar and twenties and the rest in hundred dollars bills, please.

Ungkapan yang digaris bawahi diatas merupakan contoh ungkapan untuk


menanyakan pilihan, dalam hal ini ada 2 hal. Ketika ada 2 hal yang ditawarkan, bisa
menggunakan kata hubung “or” setelah pilihan yang pertama dan sebelum pilihan
kedua. Kalau ada lebih dari 2 pilihan maka digunakan tanda baca koma (,) kemudian
kata hubung “or” digunakan sebelum pilihan terakhir.
Contoh:
Would you like to drink coffee or tea?
Bandingkan dengan
Would you like to drink coffe, milk, juice or tea?
Susunlah kata – kata berikut menjadi kalimat menanyakan pilihan yang tepat.

mengacu pada pembaca (tidak menggunakan “I”, “we” or “you”).
3. Jarang menggunakan bentuk “Passive Sentence” (kalimat pasif)
4. Menggunakan bentuk to “be”: is, am, are, was, were untuk klasifikasi.
5. Menggunakan kata kerja “have”: have, has, had, untuk memberi deskripsi detail
6. Menggunakan kata kerja aktif, terutama kalau menjelaskan perilaku.
7. Menggunakan kata sifat (adjectives) dalam menjelaskan kualitas.

1. One evening a young princess put on her bonnet and clogs, and went out take a
walk by herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool spring of water with a
rose in the middle of it, she sat herself down to rest a while.
2. The frog said, “I do not want your pearls, and jewels, and new clothes; but if you
will love me, and let me live with you and eat from your golden plate, and sleep
on your bed, I will bring you your ball again.”
3. Now she had a golden ball in her hand, which was her favourite play thing; and
she was always tossing it up into the air, and catching it again as it fell.
4. The princess looked into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep, so deep
that she could not see the bottom of it. She began to cry, and said, “Alas! If I
could only get my ball again, I would give all my new clothes and jewels, and
everything that I have in the world.”
5. After a time she threw it up so high that she missed catching it as it fell; and the
ball bounded away, and rolled along on the ground, until at last it fell down into
the spring.
6. Whilst she was speaking, a frog put its head out of the water, and said, “Princess,
why do you weep so bitterly?” “Alas!” said she, “What can you do for me, you
nasty frog? My golden ball has fallen into the spring.”

"There's my supper," thought he, "If only I can find some excuse to seize it." Then he
called out to the lamb, "How dare you muddle the water from which I am drinking?"
"Nay, master, nay," said lambkin, "If the water be muddy up there, I cannot be
the cause of it, for it runs down from you to me."
"Well, then," said the wolf, "Why did you call me bad names this time last
year?"
"That cannot be," said the lamb, "I am only six months old."

Activity 2

Bacalah teks berikut secara bergantian dengan teman sebangku kemudian pahamilah
apa yang dibicarakan dalam bacaan.
The Importance of Rainforests

Rainforests are one of the most complicated environments on Earth. They are
recognized worldwide as containing the richest source of plants and animals and are
believed to contain nearly three-quarters of all the varieties of life on Earth. This is
remarkable because rainforests cover only about six per cent of the Earth's land
surface. Rainforest are the oldest major ecosystem, having survived climate changes
for more than one million years. They provide habitats for more species of plants,
animals, insects and birds than any other environment found on our planet. Scientists
estimate that between 60 and 90 per cent of all species of life are to be found in
rainforests. Unfortunately, the widespread destruction of many of the world's
rainforests has caused a significant decline in the number of plant and animal species
on Earth.
Rainforests influence both our local and global climates. For example,
between 50 and 80 per cent of the moisture in the air above rainforests comes from
the rainforest's trees. If large areas of these lush rainforests are cleared, the average
rainfall in the area will drop. Eventually, the area's climate will get hotter and drier.
This process could convert rainforests into a sparse grassland or desert.
Rainforests are also able to absorb over 90 per cent of the rainfall in their
leaves and mosses. By doing this, they are able to slow down water run-off by
gradually releasing the water over time into streams and rivers. This helps to control
soil erosion and flooding.
Rainforests are vital to the Earth in helping to recycle carbon and oxygen.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas put into the air globally by humans, mainly by the
burning of fossil fuels (for example in cars and factories). Rainforests are able to
remove carbon dioxide from the air and return oxygen in its place. This is why our
global rainforests are often called the Earth's ‘lungs'.
Rainforests are major producers of the Earth's oxygen. In fact, scientists
believe that nearly 50 per cent of the Earth’s oxygen is produced by rainforest in the
Amazon region alone. Nearly 40 per cent of the world's carbon is contained in the
trees of the rainforests. As rainforests are cut down and burned, carbon dioxide is
released into the Earth's atmosphere. Eventually, as this gas builds up the atmosphere,
leading to what scientists call the enhanced greenhouse effect.

57
To sum up, the role of the rainforest is essential for human life. It creates
equilibrium in our environment and its resources are significant for human beings
survival.

Tes formatif 6
Jawablah pertanyaan dibawah ini berdasarkan bacaan.
1. What is recycling?
2. Mention some advantages of recycling!
3. What thing that can be recycled?
4. What thing that are hard to recycle and cause harmful pollution when burned?
5. Can you give suggestion about the use of plastic?

Recycling
Much of what we throw away could be used again. Recycling puts "garbage" to
good use. Recycling helps preserve precious resources because it saves on the use of
raw materials and energy. It also reduces the pollution caused when the waste is
dumped.
Glass can be remelted. This is better than making fresh glass from raw
materials, but it is even better to reuse the bottle whole. Metals can be recycled by
being remelted and then used to make other new items. The metals to recycle from an
ordinary household are aluminum and steel from cans. Scrap from cars gives several
different metals for recycling. Paper is easy to recycle.
Every home and office should have a paper reclining routine. Plastics are the
worst problem because they do not biodegrade (breakdown) easily. They are also
hard to recycle and cause harmful pollution when burned. It is important to use as
little plastics as possible, and then only ones that are recyclable or biodegradable.

Live Chicken for Dinner


A landowner from Seoul went to visit his farmer in the countryside and was
treated to agrand dinner of boiled chicken.
In the course of the meal, the farmer's youngest son ran in, shouting, "There it
is! He’s eating the dead chicken."
The landowner thought that he had been served a long-dead chicken. So he put
down his chopsticks and told the servant to clear the table, politely saying, "This is
enough for me. My stomach can't take any more food."
Just then, the boy started eating the chicken's legs greedily, saying at the same
time, "Oh, this is really delicious."
"Why are you eating the dead chicken?" asked the surprised landowner.
"Who eats live chickens?" replied the boy.

Read the following report text to answer the question no. 25–30

Most Firms Ignore Waste Treatment


Only 26 percent of a total of 2,173 medium and large-scale enterprises in the
city regularly submit samples of their liquid waste for assessment, the Jakarta
Environmental Management
Agency has said. The remaining 1,602 enterprises failed to deliver reports of
the liquid waste they produced as set out in gubernatorial decree No. 299/1996. The
decree requires all enterprises producing liquid waste to treat the waste before
disposing of it into rivers. It also requires firms to send samples of the treated waste
to the agency every three months. The companies on the list include hotels,
apartments, office buildings, restaurants, hospitals, and industrial plants.
The above figures do not include registered small-scale enterprises such as
community markets, small workshops and small offices which amount up to at least,
15,845 concerns. Worse still, out of 571 companies which have sent their samples to
us, only 35 percent, or 199 companies, comply with the decree and send us the
samples every three months. The rest submit the samples every four months, six
months, or even only once a year. No wonder the quality of our river water is getting

69
worse.
High levels of pollution in the city’s 13 rivers are suspected of being behind the
red tide phenomenon, which killed thousands of fish in Jakarta Bay in May. The real
issue here is whether the agency has the political will because the administration has
ignored the existing Law No. 23/1997 on the environment.
The law authorizes all environment management agencies to control the liquid
waste treatment of any enterprises. The law gave the administration the power to
censure transgressing companies and the city could close companies down if they
continue to ignore existing regulations.
The law says companies found to be polluting the environment with liquid
waste are given six months to improve their treatment facilities. If they fail to meet
the deadline, the agency has the power to close the waste treatment facility, the area
of production causing the waste, or the entire production process.
