When the boy wanted to leave, this old woman gave him a lesung, a big wooden mortar for pounding rice. She reminded him, if there is a flood you must save yourself by using lesung as a boat. The little boy was happy and thanked to the old woman.

The little boy continued his journey. While he was passing through the village, he saw many people gathering on the field. The boy came closer and saw a stick stuck in the ground. People challenged each other to pull out that stick. Everybody tried, but nobody succeeded. Can I try?; asked the little boy. The crowd laughed mockingly. The boy wanted to try his luck so he stepped forward and pulled out the stick. He could do it very easily. Everybody was dumbfounded.

Suddenly, from the hole left by stick, water spouted out. It did not stop until it flooded the village. And no one was saved from the water except the little boy and the generous old woman who gave him shelter and meal. As she told him, he used the lesung; as a boat and picked up the old woman.

The whole village became a huge lake. It is now known as Rawa Pening Lake in Salatiga, Central Java, Indonesia.

Pada jaman dahulu, ada seorang bocah miskin datang ke sebuah desa kecil. Dia sangat lapar dan lemah. Dia mengetuk setiap pintu rumah untuk meminta beberapa makanan, namun tidak ada yang perduli. Tak ada seorangpun yang mau menolong bocah kecil itu. Akhirnya, ada seorang wanita tua yang baik hati menolongnya. Dia memberi makanan dan tempat tinggal untuknya.

Ketika anak itu ingin pergi, wanita tua itu memberi sebuah lesung, yaitu sebuah mortir kayu besar penumbuk padi. Dia mengingatkan, jika terjadi banjir, kamu harus menyelamatkan diri dengan lesung itu sebagai perahu. Anak kecil itu senang dan berterima kasih kepada wanita tua tersebut.

Anak kecil tersebut kembali melanjutkan perjalanannya. Ketika ia sedang melewati desa, dia melihat banyak orang sedang berkumpul di lapangan. Anak itu berjalan mendekat dan melihat sebuah batang kayu menancap di tanah. Orang-orang tersebut saling menantang untuk menarik batang kayu tersebut. Setiap orang mencoba, namun tidak ada yang sanggup. Bisakah saya mencobanya?; ucap si anak kecil itu. Para kerumunan orang tersebut tertawa mengejek. Anak itu mencoba peruntungannya kemudian maju kedepan dan menarik tongkat kayu tersebut. Dia bisa melakukannya dengan sangat mudah. Semua orang tercengang.

Tiba-tiba, dari lubang tongkat kayu tadi, air menyembur keluar. Semburan itu tidak bisa berhenti sehingga menyebabkab banjir di desa itu. Dan tak ada seorangpun yang selamat kecuali anak kecil itu dan wanita tua yang murah hati yang memberinya makan dan tempat tinggal. Seperti yang pernah wanita tua katakan, dia menggunakan lesung sebagai perahu dan membawanya.

Seluruh desa berubah menjadi danau yang besar. Sekarang ini dikenal dengan nama Danau Rawa Pening yang tempatnya di Salatiga, Jawa Tengah, Indonesia.

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. (Taken from Natural Resources, 1993)

THE IMPORTANCE OF RAIN FORESTS

Rain forests are one of the most complicated environments on Earth. They are recognised 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 rain forests cover only about six per cent of the Earth's land surface.

Rain forest 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 rain forests. Unfortunately, the widespread destruction of many of the world's rain forests has caused a significant decline in the number of plant and animal species on Earth.

Rain forests influence both our local and global climates. For example, between 50 and 80 per cent of the moisture in the air above rain forests comes from the rain forest's trees. If large areas of these lush rain forests are cleared, the average rainfall in the area will drop. Eventually, the area's climate will get hotter and drier. This process could convert rain forests into a sparse grassland or desert.

Rain forests 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.

Rain forests 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). Rain forests are able to remove carbon dioxide from the air and return oxygen in its place. This
is why our global rain forests are often
called the Earth's ‘lungs'.

Rain forests 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 rain forest in the Amazon region alone. Nearly 40 per cent of the world's carbon is contained in the trees of the rain forests. As rain forests 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.

To sum up, the role of the rain forest is essential for human life. It creates equilibrium in our environment and its resources are significant for human beings survival. (Taken from SOSE: Studies of Society and Environment, 2000)

F. Contoh Text Analytical Exposition Beserta Generic Structure

Sekarang admin kasih contoh teks Analytical Exposition Tentang Kesehatan yang disertai analisis struktur umumnya. Perhatikan teks dibawah ini yang berjudul "Access to Clean Water: A Problem for Indonesia".

ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER : A PROBLEM FOR INDONESIA

Access to clean water is one of Indonesia's biggest problem. According to the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) Report 2007, published by the National
Development Planning Board, piped water is accessible to 30.8 per cent of households in the country's cities and 9 per cent in its villages. Such figures show the limitations of the municipality's water service provider, PDAM.

Lack of investment in clean water is one reason PDAM gives for its limited outreach. Based on a government statement, to meet the MDGs target by 2015, Indonesia needs Rp43 trillion (US$4.6 billion) in clean water funding. The government currently provides Rp500 billion.

In order to close the funding gap, the government expects private investment in drinking water infrastructure.

The need for clean water funding is something that cannot be covered by private investment. In Indonesia, most PDAM utilities have small scales of economy and are therefore unattractive to investors.

There is no evidence to suggest private investors will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of water services, whereas the government has a duty to do so.

Increasing public funding for clean water infrastructure is the most rational approach for Indonesia. This effort should begin with an analysis of the needs of locals. This should be done through a democratic and participatory process.

There are resources and mechanisms the government could employ to increase clean water funding, such as state and local budgets, grants, government bonds and community-public partnership. (Taken from The Jakarta Post, April 5, 2008)

F. THE EXAMPLE OF TEXT

"Bullying: A Cancer That Must Be Eradicated"

Thesis

A tragic end to an education that had barely begun 13-year-old Kiki stopped schooling because her classmates used to make fun of her relentlessly. They had accidentally discovered her humble background, her father being a street vendor. In another case, 15 year old Dinda could not take it anymore. She became depressed, left school and stayed at home because she was constantly teased by her classmates for failing in junior high school.

And in yet another, more recent case, some senior students of a junior high school took seven junior students, and subjected them to violent beatings. Sherry, one of the junior students, was rushed to hospital with bruises on his abdomen. He is extremely scared to go to school. Julie, a 10 year old, fifth grade student, states that her first two years of elementary school were a traumatic experience. She sadly remembers being cruelly bullied by her male classmates because she was overweight. They used to call her Sumatran elephant, baboon, gentong and many other names.

Argument (1-6)

These are few cases out of hundreds of similar cases and the number is increasing over the time. In Indonesia bullying exists in every form, from teasing to extreme abuse. Even though incidents of bullying are common, unfortunately it is not seen as a major problem. A recent survey conducted by National Child Protection Commission has shown that more than half of bullying incidents go unreported due to the fact that it is considered normal in some parts of the society. Also the people who get bullied are either unwilling to report it because they feel it will “make a big deal”. Or worse, they are so scared that they don't trust anyone and do not want to share their plight with anyone. The issue of bullying has been a problem for years but recently it got limelight from news media when few cases were reported.

Bullying affects the children both psychologically and physically. It is estimated that hundreds of children miss school every day due to the fear of being mistreated by other students and in some extreme cases they choose to home school, or in severe circumstances they stop studying altogether.

Children should not be living in constant fear. They shouldn't be afraid. On the contrary, they should look forward to every day of school and enjoy school life.
According to a research bullying has always existed in Indonesian society, but it has come to surface due to the recent proliferation of media technologies (Craig, 2009). Since bullying is prevalent in our society it is important that everyone should be made aware of this social evil. There should be campaigns to increase awareness. Everyone should be working together, against it, to stop it. It is distressing to see our children being isolated from society because they are treated badly. I am of opinion that no one has any right to harass or make people feel inferior. No one should have that kind of power. These children are our future and we should make every possible effort to stop bullying.

I would like to point out that bullying is everyone's problem and responsibility. If you condone bullying in any way, shape or form it means you are taking part in it whether it is directly or indirectly by being silent. Majority of people agree that we have to work together towards eliminating this problem.

Some people may consider taunting someone as funny, even though it is anything but funny to the person who is at the receiving end. Minor taunts can
create a lot of pain and suffering. While it may seem innocent but the cumulative effect could be highly damaging. In addition to that, as the pain increases, each instance cuts a little deeper which eventually becomes a sore.

It is highly possible that bullying might happen in your school so it is the liability of every student to protect their classmates and try to stop bullying. If it doesn't work then you should inform your teachers or parents. Not many of us think of stopping it. As long as it doesn't happen to us why should we get involved, why should we bother? But the time has come for us to be actively involved in eradicating bullying (Farrington, 1993).

Recommendation

So next time if you see someone getting bullied, would you try to stop it or let it happen? Remember, bullying is everyone's problem; therefore everyone has to be the part of the solution.

CINDERELLA (INDONESIA)

Pada suatu hari, hiduplah seorang gadis cantik yang baik hati. Gadis itu bernama Cinderella. Kebaikan hatinya membuat semua orang mencintainya bahkan binatang, terutama Gus dan Jaq (tikus). Mereka akan melakukan apa saja untuk Cinderella. Cinderella hidup bersama dengan ibu tiri dan dua saudara tirinya yang bernama Anastasia dan Drizella. Anastasia dan Drizella sangat malas dan cemburu. Mereka meminta kepada Cinderella untuk melakukan semua pekerjaan rumah seperti membersihkan peti, menjahit, memasak dan berkebun. Meskipun kedua saudara tirinya memperlakukan Cinderella dengan sangat buruk, dia mencoba untuk melakukan yang terbaik dan membuat ibu tiri dan dua saudara tirinya bahagia.

Ibu Tremaine adalah ibu tiri Cinderella. Dia berkarakter dingin, kejam dan sangat cemburu dengan pesona dan kecantikan Cinderella. Mrs Tremaine senang membuat Cinderella sibuk dengan semua pekerjaan. Dia memberikan tugas tambahan ke Cinderella memandikan kucing yang nakal, bernama Lucifer.

Suatu hari, seorang utusan dari istana tiba dengan undangan khusus. Akan ada pesta besar di istana. Raja ingin anaknya segera mencari istri. Setiap gadis muda di kerajaan diundang, termasuk Cinderella. Cinderella sangat bersemangat dengan undangan pesta. Di loteng, dia menemukan gaun yang dulu milik ibunya. Gaun itu agak kuno, tapi dengan kecerdasannya, Cinderella membuatnya menjadi gaun yang indah!

Mrs Tremaine memberi Cinderella pekerjaan sangat banyak. Dia ingin membuat Cinderella sibuk sepanjang malam, sehingga Cinderella tidak memiliki kesempatan untuk datang ke sebuah pesta besar di istana kerajaan.

Ketika kedua saudara tiri Cinderella melihat pita dan manik-manik di gaun Cinderella, mereka menjadi marah. Mereka cemburu dengan gaun Cinderella yang indah dan berkilauan. Mereka meminta kembali pita dan manik-manik itu. Mereka merobek gaun Cinderella untuk melepas manik-manik dan pita. Ibu Tremaine tidak menghentikan mereka. Dia cemburu karena Cinderella tampak sangat cantik dan menawan dengan menggunakan dress lamanya. Mimpi Cinderella untuk pergi ke pesta lenyap sudah karena tidak cukup waktu baginya untuk pergi ke istana.

Cinderella berlari ke kebun dan menangis. Pada saat itu tiba-tiba, datanglah ibu peri. Dengan tongkat ajaib, dia berubah labu menjadi kereta yang indah. Masih ada satu masalah yakni gaun Cinderella yang telah rusak dan tidak dapat digunakan.

"Bibbidi-Bobbidi-boo!" kata ibu peri melambaikan tongkatnya kembali.

Ajaibnya, Cinderella mengenakan gaun yang indah dan sandal kaca berkilau. Tapi Ibu peri memperingatkan bahwa pada saat jam berdentang 12:00 malam, mantra sihir itu akan lenyap.

Ketika di pesta itu, pangeran tampan tidak bisa melepaskan pandangan matanya dari Cinderella yang tampak luar biasa indah dan menawan. Tidak menyia-nyiakan kesempatan, ia segera megajakl Cinderella untuk menari. Orkestra dimainkan, dan sang pangeran mulai menari dengan seorang gadis cantik yang namanya tidak ia tahu. Dan untuk Cinderella, malam itu adalah mimpi yang menjadi kenyataan. Waktu berlalu, jam mendekati tengah malam. "Selamat tinggal!" kata Cinderella dan kemudian ia bergegas pergi.

"Tunggu!" kata Pangeran. "Aku bahkan tidak tahu nama kamu!"

Cinderella berlari terburu-buru. Dia khawatir sihir dari ibu peri menghilang ketika masih dalam pesta. Ketika berlari, salah satu sandal kacanya tertinggal. Cinderella dan Pangeran tidak bisa melupakan apa yang telah terjadi pada malam itu. Mereka berdua merindukan satu sama lain.

Pangeran mengirim utusan untuk menemukan seorang gadis yang kakinya cocok dengan sepatu kaca itu. Utusan itu datang ke setiap rumah warga untuk meminta semua gadis mencoba sepatu kaca itu. Kedua saudara tiri Cinderella mencoba sepatu kaca itu. Kaki mereka berdua terlalu besar tapi terus dipaksa untuk masuk. Ibu Tremaine mengunci Cinderella di loteng, tapi teman-teman tikus Cinderella (Gus dan Jaq) membantu untuk melepaskannya. Pada saat Cinderella sedang mencoba sepatu kaca yang dibawa oleh utusan dari istana, Ibu Tremaine tersandung kakinya sehingga sepatu kacanya menjadi hancur, namun Cinderella masih memiliki sepatu lainnya di saku. Dan itu cocok di kakinya.

Cinderella dan Pangeran akhirnya menikah. Semua orang bersukacita, termasuk teman-teman tikus Cinderella yaitu Gus dan Jaq, dengan mengenakan pakaian khusus untuk pernikahan. Dipenuhi dengan sukacita, Cinderella dan Pangeran hidup bahagia selamanya.
