  1. DEFINITION REPORT TEXT :
    Report is a text which presents information about something, as it is.
    It is as a result of systematic observation and analysis.


    PURPOSE OF SOCIAL :
    It’s social purpose is presenting information about something. They generally describe an entire class of things, whether natural or made :: mammals, the planets, rocks, plants, countries of region, culture, transportation, and so on.





  2. DEFINITION

    An adjective clause is simply a group of words with a subject and a verb that provide a description. The clause starts with a pronoun such as who, whom, that, or which or an adverb such as when, where and why.


    An adjective clause is a dependent clause that modifies a noun. It is possible to combine the following two sentences to form one sentence containing an adjective clause:




  3. Gerunds (-ing)
    A gerund phrase will begin with a gerund, an ing word, and will include other modifiers and/or objects. Gerund phrases always function as nouns, so they will be subjectssubject complements, or objects in the sentence.  When a verb ends in -ing, it may be a gerund or a present participle. It is important to understand that they are not the same.
    When we use a verb in -ing form more like a noun, it is usually a gerund:
    • Fishing is fun.
    When we use a verb in -ing form more like a verb or an adjective, it is usually a present participle:
    • Anthony is fishing.
    • I have a boring teacher.


  4. Angel: I think you'd better return the wallet to its owner.
    Demon: I would not do that, if I were you.
    Man: What I suppose to do?!


  5. ANALYTICAL EXPOSITION


    DEFINITIONS OF ANALYTICAL EXPOSITION :
    Analytical Exposition is a type of text that belongs to the type of Argumentation Text where the text contains detailed author's thinking about a phenomenon that is around. The social function of the Analytical Exposition text is to convince the reader that the topic is presented is an important topic for discussion or attention by way of arguments or the opinions that support the idea or topic.

  7. Definition:
    Transitions words are certain words, expressions, or other devices that give text or speech greater cohesion by making it more explicit, or signaling, how ideas are meant by the writer or speaker to relate to one another. These are words and phrases that serve as bridges from one idea to the next, one sentence to the next, or one paragraph to the next. They keep the reader from having to find his or her own way and possibly getting lost in the reading.



  8. HORTATORY EXPOSITION


    Definition :
    Hortatory exposition is a type of spoken or written text that is intended to persuade the listeners or readers that something should or should not happen or be done.


    Hortatory is similar to analytical exposition but if we have to differentiate both from one to each other, we have one useful tool by making analysis on the generic structure. 

    What makes hortatory different from analytical exposition is the last finalizing step which analytical exposition is ended by a reiteration while hortatory is finalized by certain a recommendation.




  9. Noun Clauses
    A noun clause has a subject and verb and functions as a noun. A noun clause is a dependent clause or subordinate clause and is not a complete sentence. It must be connected to an independent clause. Noun clauses usually begin with how, that, what, whatever, when, where, which, who, whoever, or why.


    Noun clauses perform eight main grammatical functions within sentences in the English language. Both native speakers and ESL students must learn the eight functions to fully and correctly use noun clauses in spoken and written English.

  19. DefinitionA preposition is a word or groups of words used before a noun or a pronoun to show place, position, time or method. The prepositions inon, and at can be used to indicate time and place.


    Prepositions: In, On, and At (with specific times and places)
    The prepositions inon, and at can be used to indicate time and place. Notice how they are used in the following situations:


    PrepositionTimePlace

    OnDay, Date

    Street
    On Main Street, On 1st Ave.
    AtTime
    At 8:00, At 7:30
    Address
    At 815 East Main Street


    In many languages, there is only one preposition for the above situations. In English there are three. Just remember that in usually indicates the "largest" time or place, and at usually indicates the "smallest" time or place. Examples: 
      A: Where's your office? B: In Taipei, Taiwan. A: Really? What part of Taipei? B: It's on Chung Shan North Road. A: I know that area. Where exactly is it? B: It's at 105 Chung Shan North Road, next to the bookstore. C: When is the wedding? D: It's in June. C: What day? D: It's on Saturday, the 25th. C: What time? D: It starts at 6:00.



    Prepositions with articles and locations
    When talking about locations, use at to indicate the general vicinity or area, andin to
    indicate inside the building, enclosed area, etc. For example:

      pool itself i.e. in the water)

       After having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold, we realized one reason there were not many people there. It was also quite windy. After we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand. We had the wind behind us and, before we knew it, we were many miles down the beach.
       Before we made the long trip back, we decided to paddle our feet in the water for a while, and then sit down for a rest. While we were sitting on the beach, just chatting, it suddenly dawned on us that all the way back, we would be riding into the strong wind.
       When we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted! But we learned some good lessons that day.
