Activity 3: Reading the text and answering the questions
Read the text; then answer the questions.
Cars create pollution and cause a lot of road deaths and other accidents.
Firstly, cars, as we all know, contribute to most of the pollution in the
world. Cars emit a deadly gas that causes illnesses such as bronchitis, lung
English for the Eleventh Grade of SMA/KTSP-2007 75
cancer, and ‘triggers’ off asthma. Some of these illnesses are so bad that people
can die from them.
Secondly, the city is very busy. Pedestrians wander everywhere and cars
commonly hit pedestrians in the city, which causes them to die. Cars today are our
roads biggest killers.
Thirdly, cars are very noisy. If you live in the city, you may find it hard to
sleep at night, or concentrate on your homework, and especially talk to someone.
I persuade that it is good for the city government to bend too many cars
come into the big city because they make the city in troubles, crowded, and heavy
traffic jams every time.

Activity 5: Studying the grammatical patterns
Study the following Dependent and Independent Clause usually used in the analytical exposition.
Dependent Clause adalah anak kalimat yang mengandung Subject dan
Verb yang merupakan bagian dari suatu kalimat majemuk. Dependent Clause
tidak bisa berdiri sendiri tetapi selalu bergantung pada Main Clause atau induk
kalimat.
Independent Clause adalah induk kalimat dari kalimat mejemuk yang
sifatnya dapat berdiri sendiri dan tidak bergantung pada anak kalimat.
Dependent & Independent Clause memiliki pola kalimat sebagai berikut:
Subject + Verb (that/Relative)+ Subject + Verb + Object/Adjective/Adverb
Main Clause = Independent Clause Sub-Clause = Dependent Clause
He thinks that it will rain.
She said that her mother was sick yesterday.
I don’t know who the girl is.
Do you know why she comes late to school?
John acts as if he were good at Indonesian.
Catatan:
Jika induk kalimat (Independent Clause) berbentuk present atau future tense,
maka anak kalimat (Dependent Clause) boleh dalam bentuk tense apapun.
Jika induk kalimat (Independent Clause) berbentuk past tense, maka anak
kalimat (Dependent Clause) harus dalam bentuk past tense (lampau) atau
bentuk yang lebih lampau.
English for the Eleventh Grade of SMA/KTSP-2007 77

SECTION TWO: Modelling of the Text
Activity 6: Identifying the schematic structure of the analytical exposition Study the following model of analytical exposition text.
Identify the structure of text: THESIS, PREVIEW, ARGUMENTS, SUMMING UP.
The Public Trustee is a Sound Investment
It is a well-known fact that it is a dilemma for many people to
make a will, without the added problems of deciding who
should draw up this document.
This task is made simple with the availability of service from
the Public Trust Officer.
Firstly the Office has a large efficient staff which includes
barristers, solicitors, accountants, valuers, and qualified
property inspector. Knowledge of the legal aspect is very
well covered.
Also the charges need consideration. Here at this Office there
are no charges for making or the holding of a will.
Furthermore, the Public Trustee is guaranteed by the State of
Queensland and has special powers to solve problems or
simplify procedures which, in the long term, save expense.

SECTION THREE: Joint Construction of the Text
Activity 8 : Analyzing the schematic structure of the text
Analyze the schematic structure of the following text. THESIS, PREVIEW, ARGUMENTS, SUMMING UP.
In Australia there are three levels of government, the federal government, state governments and local governments. All of these levels of government are necessary. This is so for a number of reasons.
First, the federal government is necessary for the big things. They keep the economy in order and look after things like defence.
Similarly, the state government look after the middle sized things. For examples they look after law and order, preventing things like vandalism in schools.

……………………....
Finally, local governments look after the small things. They look after things like collecting rubbish, otherwise everyone would have diseases.
Thus, for the reasons above we can conclude that the three levels of government are necessary.

Activity 12: Discussing the problem
Discuss the followings and make your group’s arguments Towards the TV programs nowdays.
Many TV channels such as RCTI, SCTV, TPI, TV7, ANTV, etc, have
regular news programs specially reporting crimes. The news is often very detailed
with disturbing pictures, such as murdered victims with blood all over their body.
The programs also report how a crime, for example a murder is planned and done.
What are your arguments towards those programs? Are the programs
needed to censored in order not to give bad impact for young watchers. Discuss
these and make a written exposition as your argumentative opinions.
Activity 13: Arranging paragraphs into a text
Arrange the following paragraphs into a correct sequence of analytical exposition text. Use the plan of the analytical exposition.
Another piece of conflicting evidence concerns the dingo. Lindy claimed that Azaria was taken by a stray dingo. Some of the other campers said that they
English for the Eleventh Grade of SMA/KTSP-2007 83
saw no dingo, but there were several who confirmed Lindy’s story, and who stated that they heard a dingo’s cry just before Azaria went missing.
Firstly there is the question of the blood found in the car. It was claimed that it was a baby’s blood. However, the tests used to identify the blood were later found to be unreliable and the blood could have come from an adult.
In the light of such conflicting evidence, I believe that it was wrong to convict Lindy Chamberlain without finding more definite proof of her guilt.
In 1982 Lindy Chamberlain was convicted of murdering her baby Azaria while camping at Ayers Rock. In my opinion, Lindy should not have been convicted for Azaria’s murder as there is too much conflicting evidence.
And finally there is the matter of the baby’s jumpsuit which was later found with holes in it. The prosecution maintained that these holes could only have been made by a pair of nail scissors – the ones they claimed Lindy used to kill her baby. The defence on the other hand demonstrated that the holes could just as easily have been made by a dingo’s teeth.
