Komodo Dragon

Komodo dragons have thrived in the harsh climate of Indonesias Lesser Sunda Islands for
millions of years, although amazingly, their existence was unknown to humans until about
100 years ago.

Reaching 10 feet (3 meters) in length and more than 300 pounds (136 kilograms), Komodo
dragons are the heaviest lizards on Earth. They have long, flat heads with rounded snouts,
scaly skin, bowed legs, and huge, muscular tails.

As the dominant predators on the handful of islands they inhabit, they will eat almost
anything, including carrion, deer, pigs, smaller dragons, and even large water buffalo and
humans. When hunting, Komodo dragons rely on camouflage and patience, lying in wait for
passing prey. When a victim ambles by, the dragon springs, using its powerful legs, sharp
claws and serrated, shark-like teeth to eviscerate its prey.

Animals that escape the jaws of a Komodo will only feel lucky briefly. Dragon saliva teems
with over 50 strains of bacteria, and within 24 hours, the stricken creature usually dies of
blood poisoning. Dragons calmly follow an escapee for miles as the bacteria takes effect,
using their keen sense of smell to hone in on the corpse. A dragon can eat a whopping 80
percent of its body weight in a single feeding.

There is a stable population of about 3,000 to 5,000 Komodo dragons on the islands of
Komodo, Gila Motang, Rinca, and Flores. However, a dearth of egg-laying females,
poaching, human encroachment, and natural disasters has driven the species to endangered
status.
Generic Structure
General Classification : Provides an introduction to object that Komodo is an animal that
has existed millions of years ago.
Description : Contains the physical form Komodo include length, weight, and physical
characteristics and habits and foraging habitat Komodo population statistics in various

Tsunami

The term of tsunami comes from the Japanese which means harbour ("tsu") and wave
("nami"). A tsunami is a series of waves generated when water in a lake or a sea is rapidly
displaced on a massive scale. A tsunami will be generated when the seafloor abruptly deforms
and vertically displaces the overlying water. Such large vertical movements of the earth's
crust can occur at plate boundaries. Subduction of earthquakes are particularly effective in
generating tsunami, and occur where denser oceanic plates slip under continental plates. As
the displaced water mass moves under the influence of gravity to regain its equilibrium, it
radiates across the ocean like ripples on a pond. Tsunami always bring great damage. Most of
the damage is caused by the huge mass of water behind the initial wave front, as the height
of the sea keeps rising fast and floods powerfully into the coastal area.

For people who agree, national examination is necessary for students as a requirement to
graduate from a school. People who support the national examination explain that the quality

opinion that the national examination will make the students depressed and stress. Moreover
the quality of education in Indonesia is causing uneven result national examination inequality
between urban areas with advanced education than rural areas with limited education
facilities. On the other hand society is too focused on national examination, if a child gets bad
grades when national examination does not pass, then the students would be abused and
would deprive the students' confidence. In addition to the events that occur every year when
it will be implemented nationwide exam is still chaotic distribution of matter and not timely.

In conclusion, national examination can still be useful as an instrument of evaluate or detect

the level of students' cognitive competence in several subjects, on a national scale. However,

score, behavior, and achievement.

The Amazing Spiderman 2
Introduction
I will start by saying that I am a huge fan of Spider-man. I love all the trilogies worked by
Raimi (yes, even the Spider-man 3) but I do not like the The Amazing Spiderman 1. I was
skeptical when I wanted to watch this movie, but I was wrong and I think this second sequel
is really great. Unlike its predecessor, this film is full of action, humor, and emotional. Played
by the big players, the story is well-written. The action is really spectacular and the final
scene makes me satisfied.

Evaluation 1 / Interpretation
The story begins when Peter Parker (Andrew Garfield) struggled to maintain his relationship
with Gwen (Emma Stone) after her fathers death. His actions also causes the emergence of a
new enemy, Electro, a villain played by James Foxx. Peter also continue to investigate what
happened to his father and reunited with his old friend, Harry Osborn. This movie is ended by
the death of Gwen that makes the audience will be very emotional and sad.

Advertisement
Evaluation 2
However I have to criticize about this film addressed to Paul Giamatti who plays Rhino. His
appearance is too over. His acting also does not show that he is a feared villain. It would be a
serious problem for the next Spiderman series. So I hope he can improve his acting better
than before.

Summary
Overall, I think this is the best superhero movie since the appearance of The Dark Knight
Rises. The script is well-written and convincing. I am sure the next series will be outstanding
superhero movie. I recommend this movie to anyone who loves Spider-man or other
superhero movies.

Demikian contoh review text bahasa Inggris, khususnya contoh review text film the amazing
Spiderman 2. Semoga bermanfaat. Terima kasih

of his long thin body. He twisted and turned on the slippery bottom of the bath, spitting and
hissing at us.

For an instant I stood there quite paralyzed. Then I yelled for my husband, who luckily came
running and killed the snake with the handle of a broom. Anna, who was only three at the
time, was quite interested in the whole business. Indeed I had to pull her out of the way or
shed probably have leant over the bath to get a better look!

Ever since then Ive always put the plug in firmly before running the bath water.
