Teks Report adalah teks yang menggambarkan sesuatu secara umum.

Generic Structure: General Classification - Description.
Tenses yang digunakan adalah 'Present Tense'.

Contoh Teks Report:

1.

Library

A library is a place which collects records of what people have thought and done.(Ini adalah General Classification).

It preserves those records, and it ,makes them available to us, so that we can learn about many things. In the world of library, we can entertain ourselves, teach ourselves, and be inspired by the ideas that we might never have dreamed ot otherwise.(Ini adalah 'Description')
A library has many sections. Commonly, a library has a reading room, a catalogue section, a newspaper and magazine section, books section, and a librarian desk which deals with book circulation. The books are classified based on the subjects, such as fiction, science, psychology, etc. They are arranged on the bookshelves.(Ini adalah 'Description').

Goannas

Goannas are large Australian lizards which belong to the reptile family.Goannas are yellowish-brown in colour and grow to about a metre in length.They live in burrows and eat insects, lizards, mice, eggs, and flesh of dead animals. To breed, the female goanna lays about six eggs in a termite mound.

3.

Fax Machine

Fax, the short term for facsimile is a telecommunications technology used to transfer copies (facsimiles) of documents, especially using affordable devices operating over the telephone network. The word telefax, short for telefacsimile, for "make a copy at a distance", is also used as a synonym. The device is also known as a telecopier in certain industries. When sending documents to people at large distances, faxes have a distinct advantage over postal mail in that the delivery is nearly instantenous, yet its disadvantages in quality and its proprietary format have relegated it to a position beneath email as the prevailing form of electronic document tranferral.

What is a Whale?

Whales are large, magnificent, intelligent, aquatic mammals. They breathe air through blowhole(s) into lungs (unlike fish who breathe using gills). Whales have sleek, streamlined bodies that move easily through the water. They are the only mammals, other than manatees (seacows), that live their entire lives in the water, and the only mammals that have adapted to life in the open oceans

Like all mammals:

Whales breathe air into lungs,
Whales have hair (although they have a lot less than land mammals, and have almost none as adults),
Whales are warm-blooded (they maintain a high body temperature),
Whales have mammary glands with which they nourish their young,
Whales have a four-chambered heart.

The biggest whale is the blue whale, which grows to be about 94 feet (29 m) long - the height of a 9-story building. These enormous animals eat about 4 tons of tiny krill each day, obtained by filter feeding through baleen. Adult blue whales have no predators except man.

The smallest whale is the dwarf sperm whale which as an adult is only 8.5 feet (2.6 m) long.

5.

Plants

Plants are living beings. They need food, water and air for survival.

Plants derive their food from the earth and the air. If you look at their roots, you will find that ends of these roots are like fine fibers. We call them root-hairs. They absorb water and minerals, then transport them upwards to the leaves through the trunk and the branches. It is the leaves which prepare the food.

The green material, chlorophyll, prepares the food like a machine. It converts the carbon dioxide taken from the air and water from the ground into sugar with the help of sunlight. This chemical reaction is called photosynthes. In fact, the chlorophyll takes energy from the sunlight and uses it to synthesize the hydrogen from water and carbon from carbon dioxide for making sugar. This reaction also gives out oxygen and water which are excreted by the leaves.

6 Rafflesia

Rafflesia is a genus of parasitic flowering plants. It was discovered in the Indonesian rain forest by an Indonesian guide working for Dr. Joseph Arnold in 1818, and named after Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the leader of the expedition. It contains approximately 26 species (including four incompletely characterized species as recognized by Meijer 1997), all found in southeastern Asia, on the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra and Kalimantan, West Malaysia, and the Philippines. The plant has no stems, leaves or true roots. It is an endoparasite of vines in the genus Tetrastigma (Vitaceae), spreading its root-like haustoria inside the tissue of the vine. The only part of the plant that can be seen outside the host vine is the five-petaled flower. In some species, such as Rafflesia arnoldii, the flower may be over 100 cm in diameter, and weigh up to 10 kg. Even the smallest species, R. manillana, has 20 cm diameter flowers. The flowers look and smell like rotting meat, hence its local names which translate to "corpse flower" or "meat flower" (but see below). The vile smell that the flower gives off attracts insects such as carrion flies, which transport pollen from male to female flowers. Little is known about seed dispersal. However, tree shrews and other forest mammals apparently eat the fruits and disperse the seeds. Rafflesia is an official state flower of Sabah in Malaysia, as well as for the Surat Thani Province, Thailand.

1. The Boy who cried “Wolf”

There was once a shepherd-boy who kept his flock at a little distance from the village. Once he thought he would play a trick on the villagers and have some fun at their expense. So he ran toward the village crying out, with all his might,--

"Wolf! Wolf! Come and help! The wolves are at my lambs!"

The kind villagers left their work and ran to the field to help him. But when they got there the boy laughed at them for their pains; there was no wolf there.

Still another day the boy tried the same trick, and the villagers came running to help and got laughed at again. Then one day a wolf did break into the fold and began killing the lambs. In great fright, the boy ran for help. "Wolf! Wolf!" he screamed. "There is a wolf in the flock! Help!"

The villagers heard him, but they thought it was another mean trick; no one paid the least attention, or went near him. And the shepherd-boy lost all his sheep.

That is the kind of thing that happens to people who lie: even when they tell the truth no one believes them.

There they were. We could see the second boat and then we did it.We moved past. My arms were aching. My whole body was sore but we all rowed harder.The first boat was just in front I saw a dark shadow near the boat. I looked again. What was it? I was sure it was the shape of a cigar. ‘Oh my God’, I thought, ‘I must be seeing things. A shark in Parramata River? Impossible!’Just then I pulled my oar out of the water. ‘Oh no, why only half?’ I thought. Then I knew. I shouted to my team, ‘Shark! Shark!’ and suddenly we forgot the race. We rowed faster than ever back to shore. We made it. Phew, we were safe!

pak,sya mnta tlg contoh2 dari report text.. cptn y cz darurat bgt.. trima ksih..

Dear Putri,

Here is the answer:

Now we move on to a new kind of text. It’s called REPORT TEXT. Kalau nanti kalian perhatikan, REPORT TEXT ini hampir mirip dengan DESCRIPTIVE TEXT. Kedua teks tesebut sama – sama berfungsi untuk mendeskripsikan. Tapi, tetep aja kedua teks tersebut berbeda. Biar tahu perbedaannya, let’s take a look at the example below!

REPORT TEXT

GENERIC STRUCTURE

Eagles are large birds of prey which mainly inhabit Eurasia and Africa. Outside these two areas, just two species (the Bald and Golden Eagles) can be found in North America - (north of Mexico), a few species in Central and South America, and three others in Australia.

General Classsification

Eagles are differentiated from other birds of prey mainly by their larger size, more powerful build, and heavier head and bill. Even the smallest eagles, like the Booted Eagle (which is comparable in size to a Common Buzzard or Red-tailed Hawk), have relatively longer and more evenly broad wings, and more direct, faster flight. Most eagles are larger than any other raptors apart from the vultures. Like all birds of prey, eagles have very large powerful hooked beaks for tearing flesh from their prey, strong legs, and powerful talons. They also have extremely keen eyesight to enable them to spot potential prey from a very long distance. This keen eyesight is primarily contributed by their extremely large pupils which cause minimal diffraction (scattering) of the incoming light.

Description

Yap, setelah lihat contoh diatas, jadi tahu khan ya perbedaan antara REPORT dan DESCRIPTIVE text. Perbedaan yang jelas terlihat adalah GENERIC STRUCTUREnya. Seperti kital ihat dalam contoh, REPORT TEXT mempunyai struktur sebagai berikut

General Classification: tells what the phenomenon under discussion is ( Pernyataan secara umum yang menjelaskan tentang objek yang dideskripsikan. Keterangan, dan klasifikasinya).
Description : tells what phenomenon under discussion is like in terms of parts, qualities, habits, or behaviors (if living) or uses (if non-natural) (Memberikan penjelasan tentang hal yang dideskripsikan. kalau hal yang dideskripsikan merupakan benda hidup maka bisa dideskripsikan bgian – bagiannya, kualitasnya, kebiasaanya, atau perilakunya. Kalau benda mati maka yang dideskripsikan adalah kegunannya)

Secara jelas, perbedaan antara REPORT dan DESCRIPTIVE adalah STRUKTURnya seperti yang kita lihat diatas. Tapi ada perbedaan yang lebih signifikan antara kedua teks tersebut. Seperti dalam contoh, kita melihat bahwa REPORT mendeskripsikan suatu hal yang umum. Dari contoh diatas, kita melihat bahwa yang dideskripsikan adalah EAGLES secara umum. REPORT tidak mendeskripsikan sesuatau hal yang spesifik. Nah, DESCRIPTIVE adalah teks yang mendeskripsikan sesuatu secara khusus. Seperti contoh dalam teks DESCRIPTIVE kemarin, Golden Gate adalah hal yang khusus, tidak seperti EAGLES yang dijelaskan secara umum. Ok, setelah kita melihat GENERIC STRUCTURE dari teks ini sekarang kita akan lihat COMUNICATIVE PURPOSE dari teks REPORT yaitu : To describe the way things are with reference to a range of natural, man – made and social phenomenon in our environment. (Menyampaikan informasi tentang sesuatu, apa adanya, sebagai hasil pengamatan. Yang dideskripsikan dapat meliputi gajala alam, lingkungan, benda buatan manusia, atau gejala-gejala sosial). Next, kita akan lihat LEXICOGRAMMAR FEATURES dari teks REPORT ini. Berdasar contoh teks REPORT diatas, maka LEXICOGRAMMAR FEATURES teks ini adalah sebagai berikut :

a. Focus on generic participants (Fokus pada hal yang dideskripsikan secara umum)

b. Use of Present Tense (Unless extinct) (Pengunaan Present Tense kecuali kalau benda itu sudah punah)

Ok, itu adalah salah satu contoh dan pembahasan tentang REPORT TEXT. If you still have things to ask, feel free to write your questions on the comment. I’ll be happy to answer them. Goodbye. Gbu.

Mother prepares dinner every day.

We take a bath twice a day.

The Christians go to the church on Sundays.

The rule:

They/We/I/You + Verb 1 + O + Adverbials.

He/She/It + Verb 1 + s/es + O + Adverbials.
