A. Definition of News Item Text

Dalam bahasa inggris, “news” berati berita. Tentunya hal ini tidak asing bagi kita.
Beberapa ahli bahasa inggris mendefinisikan news item text sebagai berikut:
“News items is a text that informs the readers about newsworthy or important events
of the day.”
News item text adalah suatu teks yang menginformasikan pembaca tentang
peristiwa/kejadian sehari-hari yang layak diberitakan atau penting. Newsworthy yang berati
layak untuk diberitakan, jadi tidak semua kejadian/peristiwa bisa diberitakan. Hanya kejadian
atau peristiwa penting saja yang layak diberitakan. Jika peristiwa/kejadian itu tidak penting
maka tidak layak untuk diberitakan dan diketahui banyak orang.

B. The purpose of News Item Text

“The purpose of news item text is to inform the readers about newsworthy or
important events of the day.”
Tujuan news items text adalah untuk menginformasikan pembaca tentang
peristiwa/kejadian sehari-hari yang layak untuk diberitakan atau penting. Dan kejadian yang
diberitakan biasanya adalah kejadian atau peristiwa terbaru.

C. Generic Structure of News Item Text

Sama halnya dengan jenis teks bahasa inggris lainnya seperti narrative text, recount
text, atau procedure text, news item text juga memiliki susunan atau struktur umun atau
disebut generic structure. Generic Structure dari news item text adalah sebagai berikut:
 Main Event/Newsworthy Event : adalah berita utama, bagian yang menceritakan
ringkasan dari suatu kejadian atau peristiwa penting yang terjadi.
 Background Event/Elaboration : menceritakan secara rinci latar belakang kejadian
atau peristiwa yang terjadi, siapa yang terlibat, dimana dan bagaimana peristiwa
terjadi.
 Source : bagian terakhir dari struktur news item text, merupakan sumber berita bisa
berupa pernyataan narasumber, komentar saksi, pendapat para ahli, atau pernyataan
dari pihak terkait dari suatu peristiwa.

Earthquake aftershock hits Nepal and India, magnitude 6.7

“Another one, we have an aftershock right now,” Indian mountaineer Arjun Vajpai
told Reuters by telephone from base camp on Mount Makalu, 20 km (12 miles) from Everest.

speaking on. At Everest base camp, Romanian climber Alex Gavan tweeted that the
aftershock had set off three avalanches.

How to Make a Milkshake

A milkshake is a sweet, cold beverage which is usually made from milk, ice cream, or
iced milk, and flavorings or sweeteners such as butterscotch, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce,
or fruit syrup. If you want to make a delicious milkshake by your selves, then this is the way
how to make it.

The ingredients that you need to make a milkshake are:

 4 cups vanilla ice cream

 2 cups milk
 4 teaspoons chocolate sauce (optional)
 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries

Now, follow these steps to make a milkshake.

1. Place milkshake glasses into the freezer. Using cold glasses will help the shake stay
cool to give you time to enjoy. Leave for up to an hour if possible.
2. Soften ice cream. It is easier to make a shake when the ice cream is slightly soft. Take
the ice cream out of the freezer a few minutes before making your shake.
3. Place the ingredients into a blender. Mix the ice cream, milk and added flavors into
the blender. Blend on high for one minute. Don’t leave in the blender for longer or
the shake will melt quickly.
4. Pour shakes into frosty glasses. Take the glasses out of the freezer as soon as the
blending is complete. Then pour the shake mixture in.
5. Drop a straw into the shake, then enjoy. You can sip a shake right from the glass but
somehow the straw adds to the flavor and the experience.

If you do not have a blender, you may substitute with a mixer, but be careful as it
could be messy. And if you do not have anything else to mix, just use a spoon, but let the
ice cream thaw first to make the milkshake easier to mix. Enjoy your milkshake.

BAB III : SONG

A. Definition of Song
A song is a single (and often standalone) work of music intended to be sung by the
human voice with distinct and fixed pitches and patterns using sound and silence and a variety
of forms that often include the repetition of sections.
Song have been an amusing companion for human beings for as long as or even
longer than we can speak. Songs are highly expressive. Some convey love and emotions ;
some tell a memorable and moving story; some embody one’s dreams and ideals; and some
reminisce about the golden past. Songs are abundant in themes and expressions which will
echo in the learner’s heart.

B. Sosial Function of Songs

The social function of song are:
 To entertain the listeners.
 To teach moral value through the lyrics of the songs.
 To provide a way of managing the realitionship between our public and private
emotional life.
 To express personal feeling and cultural values.
 To give someone to not only shares their emotions with others, but also to have an
emotional connection that just can’t be experienced in any other way.

C. General Structure of Songs

The general structure of a song consists of verse-chorus-verse-bridge-chorus. It is better for us
to learn more about the complete structure of songs
 IntroThe introduction establishes melodic, harmonic, and/or rhythmic related to the
main body of song.
 Verse
It is the section of the song structure that tells the story. This is the
exposition, describing the scene or the person, or an emotion. There are usually two
or three verses in a row that have the same musical structure, the same rhyme and
poetic meter, but different words. The second verse builds on the picture painted in
the first verse, etc.
 Chorus of Refrain
A chorus is the most repeated section, so it’s the easiest remembered. A
chorus is the summary of the song’s story. All the verses have been leading up to the
 chorus, and is usually the part of the song people sing along with. A chorus can come
at the beginning of the song structure; it can also start in the middle, or come at the
end. In fact, some songs don’t have choruses at all. Some people are usually confused
to differentiate between choruses and refrain. A refrain is any line that repeats in the
song lyric, while a chorus is any group of lines that repeat.
 Break
A break is actually a brief “rest” or “pause” for the core melody within a song
used to add further dimension and excitement. It may include a quick instrumental
solo or drum interlude or it may be a brief moment of silence, or acombination of
each of these elements.
 e. Bridge
This is the part of the song that shifts. It can suddenly change tempo, or
volume, or instrumentation. The bridge is the section that gives the audience time to
reflect on the story, or gives them the “climax” or conclusion of the story through
verses and chorus. Bridges can be used to give the singer a break.
 Outro or Coda
This is the end of the road for the song. It can repeat the intro, chorus or a refrain as
an outro, or a bridge with an instrumental solo.
