CHAPTER 1

SENTENCE

A. Definition of sentence
A sentence is combination of words that contain a complete thought. A
sentence usually consists of two elements. They are subject and verb. If a
sentence does not contain verb (there is no the presence of verb) the
position of verb must be substituted by “be”.

Examples:
- I study English every night -- Correct
- I am study English every night ------ Wrong
(study is a verb, so you do not need to put am)

- I lazy ------Wrong
(lazy is not verb) then we should add be after subject I.
- I am lazy----Correct

B. Kinds of sentences seen by the existence of verb

According to the existence of the verb, a sentence can be classified
into verbal or nominal sentence. A sentence classified as verbal sentence if
there is a verb directly after the subject of the sentence.
Example:
I eat a plate of rice every morning
I is the subject
Eat is the verb
A plate of rice is the object

Meanwhile, a sentence called as a nominal sentence if there is no

verb after the subject. Nominal sentence usually followed by noun,
adjective, or adverb. To substitute the existence of the verb, we must put
“be” before noun, adjective or the adverb.
Examples:
I am a student
She is a clever student
They are at home now

 CHAPTER 3
STRUCTURE: DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH

A. Definition
Direct and Indirect Speech is a variation of sentence which is usually
known as Reported Speech. Direct Speech is a sentence which is directly said by
the speaker and if we make it into written form, it will be preceded by the
quotation mark (“). Meanwhile, Indirect Speech is a sentence which is used to
report or retell a statement to other person. We do not need to put coma when we
write an indirect speech.
There are two main parts in the direct and indirect speech. They are known
as Reporting verb and reported word.
For example
Ira says “I am very beautiful”
Reporting verb: Ira says,
Reported words ”I’m very beautiful”

B. Kinds of Direct And Indirect Speech

There are three forms of Direct and Indirect Speech. They can be in the
form of statements, commands, or questions.
1. Statement
To join the reporting verb and the reporting word in the indirect speech, we
need to use the word “that”.
Example:
He said, “We will go to Singapore tomorrow”
He said that they would go to Singapore the next day.
Bob said,” I’m a university student”
Bob said that he was a university student.
 2. Command
To join the reporting verb and the reporting word we need to use the word
“to” if the command is in the positive form and if the command in the negative
form, we need to change it into “not to”.
Examples:
He told me, “Wait for me!”
He told me to wait for him.
She told me, “don’t cheat anymore!”
She told me not to cheat anymore.

3. Question
If the question is in the form of “yes or no question”, to join the reporting
verb and the reporting words in the indirect speech, we need to use “if or whether”
Examples:
Ina asked me, “Do you really love me?”
Ina asked me if/whether I really loved her.

C. Tenses Used
In constructing/ changing the direct speech into indirect speech, we should pay
attention on the tenses changing process.
Direct Speech Indirect Speech
Simple Present Tense Simple Past Tense
Present Continuous Tense Past Continuous Tense
Present Perfect Tense Past Perfect Tense
Present Perfect Continuous Tense Past Perfect Continuous Tense
Simple Past Tense Past Perfect Tense
Simple Future Tense Past Future Tense/Conditional
Future Continuous Tense Past Future Continuous Tense
Example:
Direct speech : Aria said, “I will give you a book next week”.Indirect
Speech : Aria said that he would give me a book the following week.
Mixed type:
example: Anton asked me, “what’s happening to you ? You look so pale”
Anton asked me what was happening to me as I looked so pale.

D. Adverb of Time Used

When we change the direct speech into indirect speech, we also need to
pay attention on the adverb of time used.
Adverb of Time
No Direct Indirect
1 Now Then
2 Today That day
3 Tonight That night
4 This week That week
5 Yesterday The day before
6 The day before yesterday Two days before

 CHAPTER 4
DESCRIPTIVE PARAGRAPH

A. What Is Descriptive Paragraph

A descriptive paragraph is a paragraph that describes a person,
place or thing. Using this description allows the reader to form a better
mental image of whatever is being described. A descriptive paragraph
which describes person usually tells about identity, physical appearance,
character and activity. When we describe animal, we should more focus on
physical appearance, its habitat, habit, and their likes. Meanwhile, when
we describe a place, we should tell about the location, part, specific feature
possessed and something interesting about the location.
Good descriptive paragraphs take into account the five senses:
smell, taste, touch, sound and sight. Though sight is often considered the
first thing a writer notices, sometimes it is best in writing a descriptive
paragraph to leave this detail to the end. Instead, start with something less
obvious, such as smell or taste. After this the writer can describe what
something feels and sounds like. Using varied descriptive words also helps
a reader better understand the subject being described.

B. Generic Structure of Descriptive Text

Generally, the generic structure of a descriptive paragraph consists
of two main parts. They are identification and description.
Identification is the first part appeared on the descriptive
paragraph. This part is the part which is used to introduce the object being
described. Usually the writer will tell about the general thing about the
object to make the reader know what is being discussed.
After introducing the object, the writer will come to the second part
of the descriptive paragraph that is description. This part will be more
detail than the identification. Since in this part, the writer should give the
detail about the object being talked. To describe the detail, the writer can
 explore the qualities, characteristics, size, physical appearances, ability,
habit, daily life, etc.

C. Language Feature of Descriptive Text

In constructing a descriptive paragraph, the writer must consider
the language features which are used. some feature used such as
1. Using simple present tense
2. Using adjectives to describe the object
3. Using be (is am are)

D. Example of Descriptive Text

 Example of descriptive text about human

usually call her “Mboo”. She is not tall neither short. I think her body is

 Example descriptive paragraph about animal

I like Elephants
I like elephants. Elephants are the biggest land animals in the world. The
African elephant is found on the continent of Africa and the Indian elephant is
found in Asia. Elephants are mammals as well as herbivores, meaning they
only eat plants rather than meat.

I know that there are two main types of elephants; the African elephant and
the Indian elephant. The African elephant is bigger than the Indian elephant.
It has larger ears too. Both the males and females have tusks. The African
elephant has wrinkly gray skin, a swayed back, and two tips at the end of its
trunk that it can use like fingers to pick stuff up. The tusk makes elephant
look really cool.
 The Indian, or Asian, elephant is smaller than the African elephant and has
smaller ears. They have more of a humped back and only one fingerlike tip at
the end of their trunk. Also, their skin tends to be less wrinkly than the
African elephant. Next time go to the zoo. I want to ride an elephant.

 Example paragraph about place

Gili Trawangan
Gili is derived from Sasak language (Lombok Island native tribal language) which
means small island. Actually there are several Gili / dykes around the island of
Lombok, yet there are three dykes that are known by tourists, namely Gili
Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno.

Among the three dykes, the Gili Trawangan is the largest, well-known and the
most complete amenities. Gili Trawangan is located in the northwest of the island
of Lombok. Administratively, Gili Trawangan includes in the territory of the
village of Gili Indah, West Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara province.

Gili Trawangan has several beaches with very beautiful views. Most beaches have
blue tosca and clear sea water. The sand there is also soft with white color. On the
west side of the island, you can get the beach atmosphere which is quiet and calm
enough. But there, the sand is slightly coarser than the sand of the beach which is
in the southeast of the island. Even though, this island looks pretty green with
many pine trees, acacia, and coconut trees that beautify the shoreline.

E. Exercises
1. Make a descriptive text about someone you know her/him well. Use your own
sentence. You do not need to make a long descriptive text. The main point is
there is identification and description.
2. Now, make a short descriptive paragraph about one tourism object in

 CHAPTER 5
DESCRIBING YOURSELF

What first comes to your mind when you are describing yourself? What
main features are in describing person’s individuality for you? And what features
do you highlight in people around you?
If we remember some school lessons when we had to introduce ourselves,
we will get the memories that we start introducing ourselves with the facts what
our names are, where we live, how old we are, what favorite subject is, etc. but
that’s not the whole list we should use.
Describing a person of course can be started with appearance features,
because they are what we see first. Then, to know a person better, it is very
important to observe how person acts with his friends and relatives and especially
with strangers. Besides, education is one of the ways to get to know a person
better because when we start communicating with someone we see how much a
person is educated.
The following example can be used as a guideline if you want to describe
yourself.

1. Basic Information

My name is _______ (NAME). I am __ (AGE) years old. Currently, I am

pursuing ____(My Diploma) from______________________(COLLEGE).
Talking about my education, I have completed my primary education from
__________(PRIMARY SCHOOL) and my secondary education
from __________(SMP AND SMA).

I live in a joint family. Being in a joint family I got a lot of affection, care
and a love from all of my family members and they always supports me whenever
I feel low. Being an elder child in the family I am supposed to be more
responsible. My father _____(father name) is a business man and My mother
______(mother name) is a housewife and my younger brother _____ (brother
name if you have any) is a student.
 2. Nature/Habit
Well, talking about my nature, I am not very sure. Sometimes, I am
very polite, but sometimes I become very aggressive. Sometime I used to
be very simple and sometimes very fashionable. So, it is difficult to describe my
nature. I am very impatient. I am also very shy depending upon the type of people
whom I meet and it also depend upon the situation in which I am in.

3. Likes/Hobbies
I love to spend my free time with my family, going on tour with them. I like
to talk with friends and share my feelings with them. I also like going to cinemas,
shouting or whistling with friends, playing games on mobile and P.C,. I like
listening to music when I am free or when I am bored. I can
proudly say that music is my best friend which keeps my mood fresh and
brings happiness in my life. These are the only few things which I like
or in which I gets pleasure, but there are many. I am a person who finds
happiness in every minor thing.

4. Dislikes
Yes, I agree that I find happiness in every small thing but still
there are some things which I hate or which I don’t like. Among many
categories of people I hate those people who used to talk bad things
about someone behind his/her back. I hate people who cry for small
things. I hate negative people and the people who are fake and narrow
minded. I don’t like to go at crowded places as it makes me
mentally sick, I don’t like to wake up early for work. Also, I don’t
like

William : Excuse me, am sorry to trouble you, but could you tell me how I
can get to the train station?

then after you pass the library you have to turn left. Then take your
first right and it's across from the bus station. You cannot miss it!
William : Thank you so much! I have only been in Manchester for 2 days,
so I don't know how to get anywhere yet.
Kate : Oh, I know that feeling. My husband and I moved here a 6
months ago, and I still don't know how to find certain places!
Manchester is so big.
William : So just to double check Keep walking straight ahead till I pass the
library, then I have to turn left and take the first right. Then it's
across the bus station. Is that correct?
Kate : Yes, that is correct.
William : Well thanks for helping me. I must go and catch my train;
hopefully I haven't missed it!
