Descriptive Text
Descriptive text adalah sebuah teks yang menjelaskan tentang sesuatu. Misalnya, mendeskripsikan
orang, binatang atau suatu benda, baik bentuknya, sifat-sifatnya, jumlahnya dan lain-lain. Descriptive
text juga bertujuan untuk menjelaskan, menggambarkan atau mengungkapkan seseorang atau suatu
benda.
Generic Structure dari Descriptive Text.
1. Identification
Bagian identification berisi pembuka dan gambaran umum tentang suatu topik. Identification
berfungsi sebagai pengenalan dari apa yang kita sedang jelaskan. supaya para pembaca atau
pendengar tidak salah mengerti. Pada bagian introduction juga harus menyebutkan alasan kenapa
penulis memilih tempat itu untuk di ceritakan.
2. Description
Pada bagian description berisi seluruh ciri-ciri umum sampai khusus atau sifat-sifat yang terdapat
dalam benda, orang, atau binatang yang sedang kamu jelaskan. Misalnya ketika kita menceritakan
tentang suatu tempat, kita bisa memulai dari keseluruhan ciri dari sebuah tempat tersebut seperti
bagaimana pemandangannya, bangunannya, Cuacanya, dan lain lain, kemudian merujuk ke detail
yang khusus yang melengkapi penjelasan umum sebelumnya.
Sekarang coba kalian amati generic structure dari Descriptive Text di bawah ini:
My Dog
(Identification)
My dad bought me a dog on my birthday. It is a male golden retriever dog. I really love him as my
pet. 
(Description)
His name is Jiji. He has brown fur. His fur is really soft and he likes to be rubbed on his belly. He has a
long tail and big body. I always take him for walk around because he really like it. Jiji is already as the
part of our family.
Penjelasan:
 Paragraf pertama merupakan Identification karena menceritakan hal umum dari seluruh
cerita. Seperti bahwa penulis mempunyai anjing jantan yang diberikan oleh ayahnya saat dia berulang
tahun.
 Paragraf kedua merupakan Description atau penjelasan keseluruhan umum ke khusus. Seperti
bahwa nama anjingnya pada text diatas adalah Jiji dengan bulu coklat yang halus, juga diceritakan
bagaimana sifat dan kebiasaan dari anjing tersebut.
Ciri-Ciri Descriptive Text
 Menggunakan Simple Present Tense. Tenses ini digunakan karena dalam descriptive text kita
akan menjelaskan suatu fakta atau kebenaran yang terdapat dalam suatu hal atau orang.
 Menggunakan banyak kata Adjective . Kata Adjective digunakan karena dalam descriptive text
kita akan menjelaskan sifat - sifat dari suatu benda, manusia, atau binatang. 
 Kita akan sering menjumpai banyak kata "is" atau relating verb (kata kerja penghubung)
dalam descriptive text. karena 'is' itu berarti 'adalah' yang mengarahkan pada penjelasan benda,orang
atau binatang yang sedang kita jelaskan.
 Descriptive text hanya fokus menjelaskan pada satu objek.

Recount Text

Recount text adalah sebuah teks yang menceritakan kembali peristiwa atau aktivitas yang terjadi di
masa lampau yang pernah di alami sebelumnya. Kita mungkin pernah mendengar sebelumnya dari
guru kita bahwa Recount Text adalah sebuah cerita pengalaman yang benar - benar terjadi di dalam
kehidupan kita. Lalu, tujuan dari Recount text itu sendiri adalah untuk menghibur atau memberi
informasi kepada pembaca.
Ciri-Ciri Recount Text
 Memiliki judul yang merangkum teks. Contohnya 'My Vacation to Bali' maka ceritanya hanya
akan menceritakan seluruh liburan saat berada di bali
 Menceritakan peristiwa yang sudah terjadi di masa lampau. Maka Recount text selalu
menggunakan past tense, contohnya 'Last month, I went to Bali with my family.
 Semua kejadian yang di ceritakan harus secara berurutan. Jadi, harus memakai kata sambung
seperti 'when', 'later', 'then', 'after', 'before', dan lain lain.
Generic Structure dari Recount Text
Generic structure atau struktur kebahasaan dari Recount Text ini terbagi kedalam 3 susunan, yaitu :
 Orientation
Bagian Orientation merupakan bagian pendahuluan atau perkenalan dari text yang akan dibahas.
Karena di dalam Orientation ini menceritakan siapa saja yang terlibat dalam cerita, apa yang terjadi,
di mana tempat peristiwa terjadi, dan waktu terjadinya peristiwa.
 Events
Bagian Event merupakan inti dari cerita. Pada bagian ini kita menceritakan semua yang terjadi secara
berurutan dari awal  sampai selesai
 Re-orientation
Bagian Re-orientation berisi kesimpulan dari isi cerita, atau bisa juga merupakan pendapat pribadi
dari si pencerita. Re-orientation ini bisa disebut juga akhir atau penutup dari cerita.
Dibawah ini adalah beberapa contoh dari Recount Text:

Holiday in Santolo Beach

          When Idul Fitri holiday, after visiting my parent at Pameungpeuk, Garut, I and my family went
to Santolo Beach to refresh our mind after the long time of work. It's rarely to take a vacation because
I'm very busy.
          The way to Santolo beach is quite good, and the view is really beautiful. On our left and right is
full of rice fields and many coconut trees along the way. But when we nearly arrived, there was a long
traffic jam so we hardly to get in into the beach. I guess this was because of the Idul Fitri holiday, so
people want to go to beach too. Then we just take a walk to the beach because it was not far.
Fortunately the weather was not too hot on that day.
          After we arrived, the beach was so crowded. But we still enjoyed the time by took pictures,
swimming, playing sand, and go around the beach by boat. We stay overnight in the inn that we have
rent before.
          We got up so early in the morning that we could enjoy sunrise landscape at the beach. My
cousin playing with white sand and I took a picture of him.
          A day at Santolo beach felt so short, we were quite tired for playing a whole day, but we were
very happy.

Liburan ke Pantai Santolo
          Ketika libur lebaran, setelah mengunjungi orang tua saya di Pameungpeuk, Garut, saya dan
keluarga saya pergi ke Pantai Santolo untuk menyegarkan pikiran kita setelah lama bekerja. Ini jarang
untuk berlibur karena saya sangat sibuk.
          Jalan ke Pantai Santolo pantai cukup bagus, dan pemandangan benar-benar indah. Pada kiri dan
kanan kami penuh sawah dan pohon kelapa banyak di sepanjang jalan. Tapi ketika kita hampir tiba,
ada kemacetan panjang sehingga kita hampir tidak bisa masuk ke pantai. Saya kira ini adalah karena
libur lebaran, sehingga orang-orang ingin pergi ke pantai juga. Akhirnya kita berjalan ke pantai Karena
itu tidak jauh. Untungnya cuaca tidak terlalu panas pada hari itu.
          Setelah kami tiba, pantai itu begitu penuh sesak. Tapi kami masih menikmati waktu dengan
mengambil gambar, berenang, bermain pasir, dan pergi di sekitar pantai dengan perahu. Kami
menginap di penginapan yang kita miliki sewa sebelumnya.
          Kami bangun pagi sehingga kita bisa menikmati pemandangan matahari terbit di pantai. Sepupu
saya bermain dengan pasir putih dan saya mengambil foto dirinya.
          Sehari di pantai Santolo rasanya begitu singkat, kami cukup lelah untuk bermain sepanjang hari,
tapi kami sangat senang.

Visiting My Village
Last month, I and my family went to Banyumas which was located in Central Java,
Indonesia. We drove a car. I enjoyed the journey all day long although it took 2 days to get
there. We were fun, my brother made some jokes all day. My father told us some stories on
the way. My mother slept on the back seat.
My first day in my village, I visited my siblings and friends. We are welcomed by
happiness. When I saw my parents, they cried because they looked so happy to meet up their
families. The next day, I, my brother, my cousin and my nephew went to a popular place in
Purwokerto. It was called “Baturaden”. That was a favorite spot in Purwokerto. We enjoyed
local specialty food as culinary. I was satisfied and so were they. Next, I took a photo with
traditional music musicians.
My brother, my cousin and my nephew enjoy the view with other visitors. They took
a photo with their style like I did. In the evening, we were back home. And did other private
activities, such as made a conversation, told the story and made a joke.
The day after tomorrow, my cousin had a ceremony to say thanks to God for blessing
their son. It was called “Nazar”. When the parents had a promise for something and it was
realized. They had to make a traditional ceremony. I watched that traditional ceremony and
took their photograph.
For the last show, we were entertained by “Ebeg”. It was traditional art. The player
danced through the traditional music and they were handled by the spirit. It was scary, but it
was fun and entertain.
Time run so fast because the next day was our last day in the village. So I took the last
photo to bring it home. They were my family and still family until the last breath in this
world.
Finally, we had to go home and brought a love experience from family. Yaps… that
