Hello, Ku Tunggu Kamu Disini

Menunggu teman sepermainan sejak kecil, dengan lika-liku perjalanan waktu yang telah dilewati akhirnya bertemu kembali di usia dewasa.
Bagaimana mungkin pertemuan itu terjadi setelah lama bertahun-tahun terpisah? Sebuah takdir telah menghantarkan kepada suatu momen yang mengharukan.
Biarlah waktu yang memberikan harga pada sebuah kesabaran, kesetiaan, saling percaya dan terus berharap walau terkadang rasa putus asa menghampiri.
1. Jago main biola
Seenu si bocah kecil yang mengais penghidupannya dengan mengamen, ia mengandalkan perutnya pada biola bersenar satu miliknya. Ia mengamen di jalanan, perempatan, dan dekat lmpu lalu lintas.
Suatu hari secara kebetulan ketika ia hendak membeli makanan ia bertemu dengan gadis kecil. Ia yang pandai main biola tersebut menunjukkan keahliannya pada si gadis kecil itu.
Respon yang mengejutkan dari Junnu, ia berkomentar bahwa permainan biolanya itu tidak istimewa karena sekedar memainkan lagu orang lain, apa hebatnya membawakan lagu bukan miliknya. Maka Seenu tertantang untuk membuat lagu miliknya sendiri. Pertemuan tersebut membawa awal dari persahabatan mereka. Setiap hari ketika membeli jajan di tempat yang sama, mereka semakin bertambah akrab.
Seenu mengajak Junnu bermain, bahkan diajaknya naik pohon dimana ia tinggal. Ia memang jago main biola, namun ia juga memiliki kesulitan dalam mencari nafkah sehingga satu-satunya yang diandalkan adalah ngamen dengan biola bersenar satu. Rasa simpati Junnu tumbuh, ia yang memiliki latarbelakang dari keluarga berkecukupan membuat dirinya ingin membantu Seenu. Ia berkata pada Seenu agar beretemu pada jam tertentu ketika ia berangkat ke sekolah.
Junnu yang diantar menggunakan mobil, meminta pak sopir yang mengantarkannya agar melewati jalan yang sama setiap pagianya dengan tujuan ingin bertemu dengan Seenu. Setiap kali Seenu mengamen mendekati mobil yang Ia naiki, Junnu memberikan uang dalam jumlah besar dan meminta Seenu hanya mengamen pada jam itu.
2. Sengasara membawa nikmat
Sebuah ujian datang pada Seenu, uang yang diberikan dari Junnu dirampas oleh seorang anak gelandangan lainnya. Dimana di saat itu Junnu bertemu terakhir kalinya dengan Seenu. Dalam lembaran uang tersebut tertulis nomor handphone yang bisa dihubungi oleh Seenu. Dengan dirampasnya uang tersebutlah cerita kehidupan dirinya berubah.
Ia mengejar sekuat tenaga anak tadi, yang malangnya ia tertabrak mobil saat keluar dari gang. Cukup keras dan membuat tubuhnya terpental hingga tersungkur tak sadarkan diri. Seorang ibu berparuh baya keluar dari mobil dan menghubungi polisi dan juga membawa Seenu ke rumah sakit terdekat. Ini bukanlah kesalahan ibu tersebut, pun dengan Seenu, ia juga sejatinya tidak bisa disalahkan.
Dari musibah kecelakaan tersebut, sikap jujur dan lembut hati seorang anak jalanan membuka simpati si ibu. Seenu bocah yang baik budi, polos dan tidak seperti anak jalanan pada umumnya. Seenu justru mengkhawatirkan pengemudi yang menabrak dirinya. Kelembutan hati dan kejujuran merubah nasib jalur hidupnya. Hingga si ibu mengadopsi dirinya, ia dijadikan anak angkat dan diasuh oleh ibu tersebut.
3. Pemuda yang gesit
Ketika dewasa Seenu mengubah nama panggilannya menjadi Avinash yang menjadikan lebih bersemangat menatap masa depannya. Ia di dalam ingatan dan lubuk hatinya masih menyimpan nama Junnu si gadis kecil teman sepermainannya.
Di pagi hari ketika jogging, ia mendapatkan panggilan salah sambung dari seorang sopir taksi. Si sopir salah tekan nomor, Avinash kaget ketika mendengar suara alunan biola dari sambungan telepon tersebut dan ia mengenali bahwa yang memainkan tidak lain adalah si teman kecilnya. Ia penasaran sehingga berkata pada si sopir bahwa ia tidak salah sambung, selanjutnya Avinash bertanya dimana lokasi pak sopir tadi. Belum sempat mendengar jawaban dari si sopir taksi, handphone miliknya di rampas oleh seseorang. Kejadian yang sama persis ketika dulu seseorang merampas lembaran uang yang tertera nomor milik Junnu.
Ia seketika itu juga mengejar si pelaku. Disini ditampilkan adegan kejar-kejar gaya parkour, cukup menambah atraktif adegan film romansa sehingga lebih segar dengan aksi fisik. Tubuh gesit Avinash melompati tembok dan pagar rumah bahkan melompat di sela-sela bangunan bertingkat. Kejadian ini yang menghantarkan pada dirinya sindikat penjambret dan pencuri hp.
Di sebuah gudang tertutup handphone hasil rampasan dan curian di setting ulang untuk selanjutnya dijual kembali. Disebut sindikat karena ratusan hp dan melibatkan puluhan preman yang bekerja dalam jaringan tersebut. Sebetulnya yang ia butuhkan adalah nomor panggilan terakhir yang masuk di hp miliknya. Ia terpaksa menghajar habis segerombolan preman dan pekerja di gudang tersebut hingga ia dipinjami sepeda motor untuk mengejar truk kontainer yang membawa hp miliknya.
Film berjudul Hello ini memang tidak dibintangi oleh artis terkenal namun dikemas cukup menarik, dijamin tidak akan kecewa hingga melihat ending dari cerita film ini. Resensi sebuah film juga bisa dipakai untuk diambil faedahnya antara lain nilai sosial, nilai semangat juang dan tentunya nilai-nilai kehidupan yang secara universal diterima secara umum di seluruh penjuru negara manapun.
Karena sejatinya nilai kebaikan itu sejalan dengan fitrah manusia, dimanapun berada, apapun warganegaranya, tentunya sepakat bahwa berbuat kebaikan adalah inti dari kehidupan. Manusia akan bermakna manakala melakukan kebaikan dan kebermanfaatan pada orang lain, jika hanya terbatas pada diri sendiri maka sebetulnya ia tidak butuh untuk tinggal di seuatu masyarakat di negara manapun cukup tinggal di bunker bawah tanah maupun pulai terpencil.
Tetapi ternyata kebutuhan untuk bersosialisasi dengan orang lain itulah yang menjadikan dirinya harus eksis dengan kebaikan dan manfaat apa yang mampu ia berikan untuk dunia. Semakin banyak berbuat hal manfaat, maka eksistensi manusia semakin selaras dengan fitrah, sesuai dengan hakikat penciptaan dirinya, aku ada karena aku berguna. Begitulah mungkin idealnya seseorang hidup dengan motivasi yang tidak hanya baik, namun juga sesuai kodrat manusia. Tanyakan pada hati kecil kita, apa yang kita lakukan sambil menunggu ajal yang tidak lain kawan sejati kita? Tentunya tidak sekedar menunggu bukan? Think it wisely, kumpulan waktu yang ada tidak lain adalah usia yang harus benar-benar dioptimalkan. Jika sobat semua lihat film hello 2017 ini, maka dari tokoh Seenu dan Junnu dapat diambil pelajaran salah satunya tetap percaya pada taqdir yang Tuhan gariskan pada kita. Rasa percaya atau nama lainnya adalah iman harus dibuktikan dengan sikap dan perbuatan yang mengarah pada kepasrahan jalan hidup dengan bentuk ikhtiar yang tak henti-hentinya dilakukan. 
Usaha apakah yang sudah dilakukan dalam menjemput takdir? Tentunya do everything well, wisely and optimally! Jalan hidup yang dilakukan dan dipilih itu memiliki konsekuensinya sendiri. Pilihlah jalan yang menuju pada ketakwaan, okey bro? Tetap semangat menunggu di dunia, hingga bertemu dengan kematian yang membawa manusia pada alam akhirat. Nah, sambil menunggu lakukanlah banyak hal yang positif, produktif dan punya nilai amal shalih.

  17. The Last School Semester Holiday
    The last semester holiday was a moment that I'd been waiting for. Because as long as I sit in ninth grade, I was spending more time to learn than doing some activities associated with my hobby.My last holiday was classified as a very simple holiday. I was only at home for doing my hobbies such as writing, drawing, and visiting my friends’ house. On the first day until the fifth day I spent time with writing some short stories, chatting with family, and painting some objects at home.Then in the following days, I visited my friends’ home to study and to do fun things together. Having finished studying, we then cycled around the area to see new things together. After being tired of cycling, we took visit at other friends’ house while fulfilling the thirst.

Although I only spent holiday at home by doing funny things, spending time with family, and visiting my friends’ home while studying, I really enjoyed that short holiday.(399)

  18. Liburan Semester Sekolah yang Lalu
    Liburan semester yang lalu adalah momen yang sangat saya tunggu-tunggu. Pasalnya selama saya duduk di kelas IX ini, saya lebih banyak menghabiskan waktu untuk belajar ketimbang melakukan aktiftas-aktivitas yang berhubungan dengan hobi saya.Liburan saya kemarin, tergolong liburan yang sangat sederhana. Saya hanya berada di rumah untuk mengerjakan hobi-hobi saya seperti menulis, menggambar, dan mengunjungi rumah teman-teman saya. Pada hari pertama sampai hari kelima saya habiskan waktu dengan menulis beberapa cerita pendek, bercengkrama dengan keluarga, dan menggambar beberapa objek lukisan di rumah.Kemudian pada hari-hari selanjutnya, saya mengunjungi rumah teman-teman saya untuk belajar dan mengerjakan hal-hal menyenangkan bersama-sama. Setelah belajar, kami bersepeda keliling daerah untuk melihat hal-hal baru bersama-sama. Setelah lelah bersepada, kami mampir ke rumah teman-teman yang lain untuk berkunjung sembari melepas dahaga. Setiap hari mulai gelap, kami kembali ke rumah masing-masing untuk menghabiskan waktu bersama keluarga.
    Hari-hari tersebut terasa sangat menyenangkan bagi saya. Meskipun hanya liburan di rumah dengan mengerjakan hal-hal yang menyenangkan, menghabiskan waktu bersama keluarga, dan mengunjungi rumah teman-teman saya sambil belajar, saya sangat menikmati waktu liburan yang cukup singkat itu.(440)

  19. Traveling to Bajul Mati Beach
    Last week, I and my family had a vacation to the beach because I and my little brother were having school holiday. This holiday was also a gift because two days before my little brother celebrated his birthday.The clock was still at 4:56 am, but I and my family had been ready to go to Bajul Mati beach since the distance from our house to the beach is about 3 hours. We went there by car. In the car, there were me, my sister, my father and mother. We were not allowed to bring mobile phones by our father and mother in order to enjoy more the trip and the holiday itself. To spend the time on the way I played "guess the name by the letter" with my brother who is only two years younger than me.
    Two hours had passed quickly and we began to enter the hilly area. We began to pay attention the sights seriously. We were fascinated to see paddy fields which looked so beautiful and green. After a while, we finally arrived at Bajul Mati beach. This beach is located in Malang, East Java. While enjoying the sea breeze, we ate together first. We can not stop being amazed at the beauty of this beach. Bajul Mati beach has not been well-known enough, so there were not many visitors there. But the beach was still so clean and brought us comfort.We could not bear to play at the beach, so after having meal together we directly ran toward the seashore. We ignored mom’s words telling us to put on sunblock first. It felt fresh when the sea water reached our feet. We decided to swim in the estuary because the current was calm unlike those in the ocean. We had been swimming for about 15 minutes, before our father called and sent us to the seashore while our mother just took picture on us with his camera.Suddenly, it was already at 12 o’clock, mom and dad took us to clean ourselves. After that, we prayed Zuhur together. The event was followed by enjoying the warm meatballs in a stall on the beach, which was very delicious. Eating warm meatball while seeing the beauty of the beach was so much fun.On the way home, I and my little brother fell asleep. When we woke up, we were already at home. This holiday was really fun. I can not wait to go to the sea with my father, my mother and my younger brother in the upcoming holiday. I went back to sleep until the morning because we were still exhausted.(508)

  20. Wisata ke Pantai Bajul Mati
    Minggu lalu, saya dan keluarga berlibur ke pantai karena aku dan adik sedang liburan sekolah. Liburan ini juga sebagai hadiah karena kemaren lusa adik laki-lakiku merayakan ulang tahun.
    Jam masih menunjukkan pukul 04.56 pagi, tapi aku dan keluarga sudah bersiap pergi ke pantai Bajul Mati karena jarak dari rumah ke pantai sekitar 3 jam perjalanan. Kami pergi ke sana naik mobil. Dalam mobil ada aku, adik perempuanku, ayah dan ibu. Kami dilarang membawa handphone oleh ayah dan ibu agar lebih menikmati perjalanan dan liburan itu sendiri. Untuk menghabiskan waktu dalam perjalanan aku bermain “tebak nama berdasarkan huruf” bersama adikku yang hanya terpaut 2 tahun dariku.
    Dua jam sudah berlalu dengan cepat dan kami mulai memasuki daerah perbukitan.Kami mulai memperhatikan pemandangan dengan seksama. Kami terpesona karena melihat hamparan sawah yang terlihat begitu indah dan hijau. Setelah beberapa saat, akhirnya kami sekeluarga tiba di Pantai Bajul Mati. Pantai ini terletak di Kabupaten Malang, Jawa Timur. Sambil menikmati angin laut, kami makan bersama dulu. Kami tidak bisa berhenti takjub melihat indahnya pantai ini. Pantai Bajul Mati memang belum terlalu terkenal, sehingga belum banyak pengunjung yang datang. Namun pantainya masih sangat bersih yang membuat kami sekeluarga nyaman.Kami tak sabar untuk segera bermain di pantai, sehingga setelah makan bersama kami langsung berlari ke arah tepi pantai. Kami tidak mengindahkan perkataan ibu yang menyuruh kami memakai sunblock terlebih dahulu. Rasanya segar ketika air laut mengenai kaki kami. Kami memutuskan untuk berenang di muara karena arusnya yang tenang tidak seperti di laut. Kami berenang sekitar 15 menit, sebelum ayah memanggil dan menyuruh kami ke tepi laut sementara ibu hanya memotret kami melalui kameranya.Tak terasa sudah jam 12 ayah dan ibu mengajak kami untuk membersihkan diri. Setelah itu, kami sholat zuhur berjamaah. Acara dilanjutkan dengan menikmati bakso hangat di warung di pinggir pantai, yang enak sekali. Makan bakso hangat sambil melihat keindahan pantai sungguh menyenangkan.Saat perjalanan pulang aku dan adik tertidur pulas. Saat kami bangun, kami sudah berada di rumah. Sungguh menyenangkan liburan kali ini. Aku tidak sabar ke pantai lagi bersama ayah, ibu dan adik pada liburan mendatang. Aku pun kembali tertidur sampai pagi karena kami masih lelah.(579)

  21. The First Day of Holiday at Grandparents’ Home in the Village
    I was so happy because last semester, I got good scores. My pleasure increased because during a week, I spent the holiday at grandparents’ home in Wlingi.
    I arrived at their home Sunday morning at around 10.00. My grandmother is the best; she had finished preparing my favorite food when I just arrived at her home. Noticing my favorite food which was already on the table, of course I was immediately fascinated. Yes, my grandmother usually cooks my favorite food (chicken rendang) when I take a visit to her home, there is a large family reunion and lebaran. Perhaps, my grandmother cooked the chicken rendang for se felt so pleased knowing my plan to spend the holiday here, because we had not seen nearly 8 months at that time.
    Having finished eating, I told him my experiences at school. They were very happy to know that my semester report’s scores were good. Next, I decided to move towards my favorite place in the grandmother's house which was in the porch. In front of grandma's house there are a wide football field and a tall banyan tree. Around this field, there are still so many paddy fields, which looked so green at that time. It was in contrast to the area in which I live where its field is getting narrower from year to year because it is closed to build housing.(619)

  22. The beautiful scenery accompanied by the breezes that blow caused me sleepy. I didn’t know since what time I had fallen asleep in the porch until Ashar praying time was coming.After praying Ashar, I went to my family's rice field together with my grandparents which is located about 400 meters from the house. I was so amazed to see the rice terraces getting yellow which was so beautiful. Grandpa said that it was likely that our paddy could be harvested the day after”. He promised that he would take me to see the harvesting of paddy. Of course I approved the promise, and I couldn’t bear for two days after that day. I had already imagined how fun this activity would be. Even I had estimated how many sacks of rice we would get after harvesting.
    Days seemed to run very fast there. I didn’t feel that it had already been night. We just stayed at home because of the heavy rain outside. The ambiance was so warm when my grandmother prepared us STMJ (Susu = Milk, Telur= Egg, Madu= Honey, Jahe= Ginger) which is my and my grandfather’s favorite beverage.
    We ended the funny day with drowsiness coming suddenly and then sleep. (655)

  23. Hari Pertama Liburan di Rumah Kakek dan Nenek di Desa Saya senang sekali karena semester kemarin saya mendapat nilai yang bagus-bagus. Kesenangan saya bertambah karena selama seminggu saya menghabiskan waktu liburan di rumah kakek dan nenek di Wlingi.
    Saya tiba di rumah mereka hari Minggu pagi sekitar pukul 10.00. Nenek saya memang paling baik, beliau sudah selesai menyiapkan makanan favorit saya ketika saya baru ke rumahnya. Melihat makanan favorit saya yang sudah tersedia di meja, tentu saya langsung kegirangan. Ya, biasanya nenek hanya memasak makanan favorit saya tersebut (rendang ayam) saat ada reuni keluarga besar dan momen lebaran. Mungkin nenek memasak rendang ayam karena senang dengan rencana saya menghabiskan libur disini, karena kami sudah tidak bertemu hampir 8 bulan lamanya.
    Selesai makan, saya bercerita pengalaman saya di sekolah. Mereka sangat senang ketika tahu nilai rapot saya bagus. Selanjutnya, Saya memutuskan untuk bergerak menuju tempat favorit saya di rumah nenek, yaitu di teras rumah. Di depan rumah nenek masih terdapat lapangan sepak bola yang luas dan pohon beringin yang tinggi besar. Di sekelilingnya masih banyak sawah, yang tampak menghijau pada waktu itu. Berbeda dengan wilayah di tempat tinggal saya yang sawahnya semakin sempit dari tahun ke tahun karena lahannya ditutup untuk dibangun perumahan.(696)

  24. Pemandangan yang asri ditambah angin sepoi-sepoi yang berhembus menyebabkan saya mengantuk. Entah sejak kapan saya sudah tertidur di teras tersebut hingga menjelang Ashar.Selepas Ashar saya menuju sawah milik keluarga bersama kakek dan nenek yang letaknya sekitar 400 meter dari rumah. Saya begitu takjub melihat petak sawah kami yang sudah kuning, indah sekali. Kakek bilang, kemungkinan lusa sawah kami sudah bisa dipanen. Beliau berjanji akan mengajak saya melihat pemanenan padi di sawah. Tentu saja saya menyetujui ajakan kakek, rasanya jadi tidak sabar menunggu besok lusa. Sudah terbayang bagaimana asyiknya kegiatan ini. Bahkan saya sudah mengira-ngira berapa karung padi yang akan kami dapatkan setelah panen.Hari-hari memang seakan berjalan sangat cepat di sana. Tak terasa hari sudah malam. Kami berdiam di rumah karena di luar hujan deras. Suasana jadi hangat ketika nenek menyiapkan STMJ yang merupakan minuman favorit kakek dan juga saya.Kami mengakhiri hari menyenangkan itu dengan rasa kantuk yang bergelayut dan kemudian tidur(727).

  25. The Story of Holiday at Home
    Hi friends, now, I will tell my semester holidays at home. The last holiday, I chose to spend the time at home just because I wanted to have a lot of time hanging out with family at home.The first day, I did some activities that I rarely do in school days. I started these activities with jogging in the morning, then played games on the computer, and played online games until 10:00 a.m. After that I took a bath, and continued playing the online games again until 12.00. Midday prayers time (Dzuhur) came so I must pray and then followed by lunch. After midday prayers and lunch, I and all members of the family gathered in the living room to watch TV together while chatting.The next day, I was conducting a little bit different activity. After breakfast, my mom asked me to go with her to the Grand Mall in Bekasi. At the mall, I accompanied my little sister to play on timezone while waiting for our mother to finish shopping. I got home at 12, we continued our activities with midday prayers and had lunch together. After midday prayers and having lunch together, watching TV together while relaxing repeated again.(762)

  26. The next day, I tried to do my hobby which is writing short stories. That day I spent almost entire day to write short stories. I just took rest when prayer times and meal times with the family came. But at night, I spent quality time with my family to watch some DVDs together.
    In the following days, we spent the time by doing the same activities. We were very happy even though we did not travel far away to spend a holiday. We enjoyed very much the family togetherness in the last holiday.Cerita Liburan di rumah Hai teman-teman, sekarang, saya akan menceritakan liburan semester saya di rumah. Liburan yang lalu, saya memilih menghabiskan waktu di rumah saja karena saya ingin memiliki banyak waktu berkumpul bersama keluarga di rumah.Hari pertama liburan, saya melakukan beberapa aktivitas yang jarang saya lakukan di hari-hari sekolah. Kegiatan-kegiatan itu saya awali dengan lari pagi, kemudian bermain game di komputer, dan bermain game online sampai pukul 10.00. Setelah itu saya mandi, dan melanjutkan bermain game online lagi sampai pukul 12.00. Waktu sholat Dzuhur pun datang sehingga saya harus sholat kemudian dilanjutkan dengan makan siang. Setelah sholat Dzuhur dan makan siang, saya dan semua anggota keluarga berkumpul di ruang keluarga untuk menonton tv bersama sambil bercengkrama (801)

  27. Keesokkan harinya, saya melakukan kegiatan yang sedikit berbeda. Setelah sarapan pagi, ibu menyuruhku menemaninya pergi ke Grand Bekasi Mall di bekasi. Di mall, saya menemani adek main di timezone sambil menunggu ibu selesai belanja. Sampai di rumah pukul 12, kami melanjutkan kegiatan dengan sholat Dzuhur dan makan siang bersama. Setelah sholat Dzuhur dan makan siang bersama, kegiatan menonton tv bersama sambil bersantaipun kembali terulang.Hari berikutnya, saya mencoba mengerjakan hobi saya yaitu menulis cerita pendek. Hari itu saya habiskan hampir seluruhnya untuk menulis cerita pendek. Saya hanya beristirahat saat waktu sholat tiba dan waktu makan bersama keluarga. Namun di malam hari, saya menghabiskan quality time bersama keluarga dengan menonton beberapa DVD bersama.Hari-hari selanjutnya kami habiskan dengan melakukan beberapa kegiatan yang sama. Kami sangat bahagia meski kami tidak melakukan perjalanan yang jauh untuk menghabiskan liburan. Kami sangat menikmati kebersamaan keluarga pada hari libur yang lalu.(832)

  28. A Trip to Tanjung Setia Beach Last year, at the end of the year, my wife and I decided to spend our holiday at Tanjung Setia beach, which located around 234 kilometers from Bandarlampung. When we arrived at the beach, we were surprised to see the beautiful view of the beach. After having a quick dip in the ocean, which was really cold and windy, we realized that there were not many people there. We thought that it happened because it was too windy there during that time but we finally realized that it was Christmas holiday so almost all of tourists who are used to spending time there went back to their country.After spending few times swimming in the beach, we bought some hot chips at the takeaway store nearby, and we rode our bikes down the beach for a while, on the hard, damp part of the sand. The next day we visited Labuan Jukung beach. There, we were amazed to see the high wave owned by this beach. Because it was so high that no body was brave enough to surf on it that time.The third day there, we decided to go home when we finally made it back home, we were both totally exhausted because of the trip but we were so happy to travel such an amazing beach Lampung province has.(867)

  29. Perjalanan Liburan ke Pantai Tanjung Setiai Tahun lalu, pada akhir tahun, saya dan istri saya memutuskan untuk menghabiskan liburan kami di pantai Tanjung Setia, yang terletak sekitar 234 kilometer dari Bandarlampung.
    Ketika kami tiba di pantai, kami terkejut melihat pemandangan indah pantai tersebut. Setelah menceburkan diri sejenak di pantai, yang benar-benar dingin dan berangin pada waktu itu, kami menyadari bahwa tidak ada banyak orang di sana. Kami berpikir bahwa itu terjadi karena angina terlalu besar pada waktu itu tapi kami akhirnya menyadari bahwa hari itu adalah hari libur Natal sehingga hampir semua wisatawan yang terbiasa untuk menghabiskan waktu di sana kembali ke negara mereka.Setelah menghabiskan beberapa waktu berenang di pantai, kami kemudian membeli beberapa keripik hangat(yang baru saja digoreng) di toko di dekat pantai itu, dan kami kemudian bersepeda di pantai untuk beberapa saat, di pasir yang basah itu. Keesokan harinya kami mengunjungi pantai Labuan Jukung. Di sana, kami terkagum-kagum melihat ombak tinggi yang dimiliki oleh pantai ini. Karena begitu tingginya sehingga tidak ada yang cukup berani untuk berselancar di atasnya saat itu.Pada hari ketiga ada, kami memutuskan untuk pulang ketika kami akhirnya sampai kembali ke rumah, kami berdua benar-benar lelah karena perjalanan itu tapi kami sangat senang melakukan liburan di pantai yang menakjubkan yang dimiliki provinsi Lampung tersebut.(909)

  30. Visiting Way Kambas Yesterday I and my family went to Way Kambas national park to see the elephants and rhinos conserved there. Way Kambas National Park is a national park which is used as elephant and rhino sanctuary located in Labuhan Ratu District, East Lampung, Lampung, Indonesia When we got to there, we saw some elephant performances such as playing football, sitting, greeting the visitors, and other entertaining performances. Unfortunately, we could not see the Sumatranrhinoceros because visitors must have a special permit in advance to see them. Visitors or ordinary tourists cannot see the Sumatran rhino’s natural breeding. In the afternoon we saw some animals which were being fed.When we returned home we were tired but we were happy because we had so much fun in Way Kambas.Mengunjungi Way Kambas Kemarin saya dan keluarga pergi ke taman nasional Way Kambas untuk melihat gajah dan badak yang dilestarikan di sana. Taman Nasional Way Kambas adalah taman nasional yang digunakan sebagai tempat perlindungan gajah dan badak yang terletak di Labuhan Ratu Kabupaten Lampung Timur, Lampung, Indonesia
    Ketika kami sampai di sana, kami melihat beberapa pertunjukan gajah seperti gajah bermain sepak bola, gajah duduk, gajah menyapa pengunjung, dan pertunjukan menghibur lainnya. Sayangnya, kita tidak bisa melihat badak sumatera karena pengunjung harus memiliki izin khusus terlebih dahulu untuk melihat mereka. Pengunjung atau wisatawan biasa tidak bisa melihat penangkaran alami badak Sumatera ini. Di sore hari kami melihat beberapa hewan yang diberi makan.Ketika kami kembali ke rumah kami merasa lelah tapi kami senang karena kami mendapat banyak kebahagiaa ketika kami di Way Kambas.(959)

  32. Simple Narrative Text - A Hungry Crocodile

    Orientation

    One day, there was a hungry crocodile waiting a prey near the lake in the jungle.

    That crocodile hiding under the surface of the lake for a long time, but there was not yet any prey approaching that lake to drink.

    That crocodile was so cruel and thus it had no friend and the other animals hate it so much.

    Complication

    At the afternoon, the crocodile could not stay any longer to the lake. It finally walked to the ground.

    But that day was unlucky day for that crocodile. After getting at the bank of the lake suddenly there was a big branch of the tree falling upon its neck. The crocodile could not move at all.

    Not long after the falling branch, finally there was a buffalo coming to the lake to drink.

    The buffalo saw the crocodile and the buffalo was afraid and would leave that lake soon. But the crocodile asked it sadly to help.

    The buffalo felt sad about it and decided to help the crocodile.

    But after helping the crocodile, the buffalo got something unexpected.

    The crocodile bit the buffalo’s leg and the buffalo shouted loudly asking help for any other animal near it.

    Kancil that was at the way to go to the Lake heard the buffalo’s voice. Kancil run quickly to see what had happened to the buffalo.

    Near the lake, kancil saw the buffalo and the crocodile.

    Kancil asked: “what happened?”

    And the buffalo answered: “the crocodile bite my leg after I help to remove the big branch from its neck”.

    The crocodile also said: “I’m hungry and you are at my territory, therefore I bit you poor buffalo.”

    The crocodile laughed at the buffalo.

    Kancil said to buffalo, “It is impossible you had helped the crocodile, thus the crocodile had the right to bite you.”

    The buffalo said, “I’m not telling a lie. I can prove it.”

    Kancil said, “I believe that crocodile is right, but then you can try to prove your telling. But first crocodile must release your bite, okay?”

    Crocodile said, “Okay, it is easy, but after that I will eat the buffalo.”

    Kancil said, “Okay, deal.”

    Resolution

    The buffalo laid the big branch at the former position, upon the crocodile’s neck.

    After that suddenly kancil said, “Lets run buffalo, lets run!”

    The buffalo and kancil run as fast as possible and the crocodile had realized that it is had been fooled by kancil.

    The crocodile was still trapped there and there was no one helped it.

  33. Terjemahan Bahasa Indonesia (Arti) Simple Narrative Text - Buaya Yang Lapar

    Orientasi

    Suatu hari, ada seekor buaya kelaparan sedang menunggu mangsa di dekat danau di dalam hutan.

    Buaya itu bersembunyi di bawah permukaan air danau dalam waktu yang lama, namun belum juga ada seekor mangsapun mendekati danau untuk minum.

    Buaya itu sangatlah jahat dan oleh karena itulah ia tidak memiliki teman dan binatang lainpun sangat membencinya.

    Komplikasi

    Setelah hari menjelang sore, buaya tersebut tak tahan berendam di dalam air. Akhirnya buaya itu merayap ke tanah.

    Namun hari itu sungguh hari yang sial bagi buaya. Setelah mencapai tepi danau tiba-tiba sebuah batang pohon berukuran besar jatuh tepat di leher buaya. Buaya itu tidak bisa bergerak sama sekali.

    Tak lama kemudian, akhirnya datanglah seekor kerbau ke danau itu untuk minum.

    Kerbau itu melihat buaya dan langsung ketakutan serta hendak meninggalkan danau itu secepatnya. Namun buaya itu memelas memohon pertolongan.

    Kerbau merasa kasian pada buaya itu dan akhirnya memutuskan untuk menolongnya.

    Namun setelah menolong buaya tersebut, kerbau itu mendapatkan sesuatu yang tak ia harapkan.

    Buaya itu menggigit salah satu kaki kerbau dan kerbau itu berteriak lantang minta tolong kepada binatang lain di sekitar danau tersebut.

    Kancil yang pada saat itu sedang berjalan menuju danau mendengar suara kerbau. Kancil berlari secepatnya untuk melihat apa yang telah dialami oleh kerbau.

    Sesampainya di dekat danau, kancil melihat kerbau dan buaya.

    Lalu kancil bertanya, “Ada apa ini?”

    Dan kerbau menjawab, “buaya ini menggigit kakiku setelah aku menolongnya menyingkirkan dahan pohon yang menjatuhi lehernya.”

    Buaya itu berkata, “Aku lapar dan kamu berada di wilayahku, maka aku menggigitmu kerbau yang malang.”

    Buaya itu menertawakan kerbau.

    Kancil berkata kepada kerbau, “Tak mungkin kamu membantu buaya, maka buaya punya hak untuk menggigitmu.”

    Kerbau itu berkata, “Aku tidak berbohong. Aku bisa membuktikannya.”

    Kancil berkata, “Aku percaya buaya benar, namun kamu boleh saja mencoba membuktikan omonganmu. Tapi sebelumnya, buaya harus melepaskan gigitanmu, oke?”

    Buaya berkata, “Oke, itu gampang, tapi setelah itu aku akan memakan kerbau.”

    Kancil berkata, “Oke, sepakat.”

    Resolusi

    Kerbau menaruh dahan besar itu pada posisi semula, di atas leher buaya.

    Setelah itu tiba-tiba kancil berkata, “Lari kerbau, ayo cepat lari!”

    Kerbau dan kancil lari secepat mungkin dan buaya baru sadar kalau ia baru saja dibodohi oleh kancil.

    Buaya itu tetap terjebak di sana dan tak ada yang mau menolongnya.

  34. Holiday in Lembah Pelangi Waterfall
    Last holiday, I and my beloved wife, visited Lembah Pelangi Waterfall in Ngarip District, Tanggamus Regency, Lampung Province, Indonesia. It was the first time for me to visit such a wonderful waterfall.To reach the waterfall location, we should go on foot after having around three hours trip riding a motorcycle from Bandarlampung, the capital city of Lampung. When we arrived there, I was amazed by the beautiful scenery of the waterfall. The air was so fresh at that time and I could not bear to jump into the water immediately. It is quite windy there and all I could see only green, green, and green. Hearing the sound of falling water while we were swimming made me feel peaceful and relaxing.Finally, the day was getting dark and it was time for us to go home. It was such an unforgettable experience for me. I really enjoyed it.(1019)

    Pada hari libur yang lalu, saya dan istri saya tercinta, mengunjungi Air Terjun Lembah Pelangi di Kecamatan Ngarip, Kabupaten Tanggamus, Provinsi Lampung, Indonesia. Ini adalah pertama kalinya bagi saya mengunjungi air terjun yang indah seperti itu.Untuk mencapai lokasi air terjun, kami harus berjalan kaki setelah sekitar tiga jam perjalanan mengendarai sepeda motor dari Bandarlampung, ibukota Lampung. Ketika kami tiba di sana, saya kagum dengan pemandangan indah air terjun tersebut. Udaranya begitu segar pada waktu itu dan saya tidak tahan untuk segera melompat ke dalam ai. Suasananya sangat berangin di sana dan semua yang saya bisa lihat hanyalah hijau , hijau , dan hijau. Mendengar suara air jatuh sembari berenang membuat saya merasa damai dan santai.Akhirnya, hari semakin gelap dan sudah waktunya bagi kami untuk pulang. Itu adalah pengalaman yang tak terlupakan bagi saya . Saya sangat menikmatinya.(1046)

  36. Narrative Text Singkat - Dolphin and the Fisherman
    Orientation

    One day there was a fisherman fishing in the sea. The fisherman was fishing alone on his small old boat.

    Complication

    That day was not a good day to fish. The fisherman got none of fish even he had been fishing for several hours.

    The fisherman could not stay longer for fishing if there was no fish eating his bite.

    He was bored and hungry. But he thought that he had no fish then he would have no money for his family.

    He was confused and sad.

    He prayed to the God for his lucky.

    He decided to fish for more few minutes and if he got none then he would back home soon but if he got one then he would continue to fish.

    After praying, the fisherman changed his bait and fish one more again.

    Not too long after he threw his hook, a fish bite his bait.

    Finally, he got one.

    After that he was so lucky, he got more and more fish easily. His boat was almost full of fish and he could go home and sell the fish.

    On the way back, he saw something at the sea surface. It was like a buoy moved round and round.

    The fisherman moved his boat closer to it to see clearly. It was like what he thought, that thing is a net with the buoy at the surface.

    If the buoy was wobbling, there must be some fish trapped at the net.

    But whose net was that?

    There was no boat except that fisherman at that area. It meant that the net was a missing net.

    The fisherman took that net to see what kind of fish which made the buoy wobbling. It was a dolphin trapped at that net.

    What a pity dolphin.

    It was a beautiful dolphin with white colour and it was rare kind of dolphin at that sea.

    The fisherman took it free. The dolphin looked happy after that. It swam around the fisherman and jumped three times before it finally leaved him.

    Resolution

    A month after that, the fisherman met that white dolphin at the different situation.

    It was a cloudy day and the fisherman was still in the middle of the sea.

    The storm would come soon and the fisherman in a hurry prepared to back home. But it was too late, before the fisherman closed to the beach the storm was coming.

    The wave was so high and the fisherman’s boat was slowly sinking.

    The fisherman could not do anything else except trying to swim. But he was too old and he could not stand any longer.

    At that moment the white dolphin came and saved the fisherman.

    The storm was over and the fisherman was already at the beach.

    He did not remember how he was there but what he can remember was that the dolphin had saved him.

    He looked at the middle of the sea and he saw the white dolphin jumped several times.

  38. Terjemahan Bahasa Indonesia (Arti) Narrative Text Singkat - Lumba-Lumba dan Nelayan

    Orientasi

    Pada suatu hari ada seorang nelayan sedang memancing ikan di tengah laut. Nelayan itu memancing ikan sendirian di atas perahu tuanya yang kecil.

    Komplikasi

    Hari itu bukanlah hari yang baik untuk memancing ikan. Nelayan itu tak mendapatkan seekor ikanpun meski ia telah memancing selama beberapa jam.

    Nelayan itu tak bisa bertahan lebih lama lagi untuk memancing jika tak ada seekor ikanpun yang memakan umpannya.

    Nelayan itu bosan dan lapar. Namun ia berfikir kalau ia tak mendapatkan seekor ikanpun maka ia tidak akan mendapatkan uang untuk keluarganya.

    Ia sangat bingung dan sedih.

    Ia lalu berdoa kepada Tuhan agar mendapat keberuntungan.

    Nelayan itu memutuskan untuk bertahan beberapa menit lagi, jika ia tidak mendapat ikan maka ia akan segera pulang dan jika ia mendapat ikan maka ia akan melanjutkan memancing.

    Setelah berdoa, nelayan itu mengganti umpannya dan memancing sekali lagi.

    Tak lama setelah ia melemparkan kailnya, seekor ikan memakan umpannya.

    Akhirnya ia mendapatkan seekor ikan.

    Setelah itu ia menjadi sangat beruntung, ia mendapatkan ikan terus menerus dengan mudahnya. Perahunya hampir penuh ikan dan ia bisa pulang dan menjual ikannya.

    Dalam perjalanan pulang, ia melihat sesuatu di permukaan laut. Ia melihat sebuah pelampung yang bergerak berputar-putar.

    Nelayan itu mendekatkan perahunya agar bisa melihat dengan jelas. Seperti yang telah ia duga, benda itu adalah jaring dengan pelampung yang mengambang di permukaan laut.

    Jika pelampung itu bergoyang-goyang, tentu ada ikan yang tersangkut di jaring tersebut.

    Namun jaring siapakah itu?

    Tak ada sebuah perahupun di area itu kecuali nelayan itu. artinya, jaring tersebut merupakan jaring yang tertinggal oleh pemiliknya.

    Nelayan itu mengambil jaring tersebut dan melihat ikan apa yang telah membuat pelampung itu bergoyang-goyang. Ternyata ada seekor ikan lumba-lumba yang terperangkap dalam jaring tersebut.

    Sungguh ikan lumba-lumba yang malang.

    Ikan lumba-lumba itu sangat cantik dengan warna putih dan ikan lumba-lumba jenis itu merupakan ikan yang langka di area tersebut.

    Nelayan itu melepaskan ikan lumba-lumba tersebut. Ikan lumba-lumba itu tampak senang dan kemudian ia berenang mengelilingi perahu sang nelayan dan melompat tiga kali sebelum akhirnya meninggalkan nelayan itu.

    Resolusi

    Sebulan kemudian, nelayan itu berjumpa lagi dengan ikan lumba-lumba putih pada situasi yang berbeda.

    Waktu itu cuaca sedang mendung dan sang nelayan masih berada di tengah laut.

    Badai akan segera datang dan sang nelayan segera bersiap untuk kembali pulang. Namun terlambat, sebelum sang nelayan mendekati pantai, badai telah datang.

    Ombak laut sangat tinggi dan perahu sang nelayan tenggelam perlahan.

    Nelayan itu tak mampu berbuat apa-apa selain mencoba untuk berenang. Namun ia terlalu tua dan tak mampu bertahan lebih lama lagi.

    Pada momen itu, sang lumba-lumba putih datang dan menyelamatkan sang nelayan.

    Badai telah berlalu dan nelayan itu telah berada di pinggir pantai.

    Ia tak bisa mengingat bagaimana ia telah sampai di sana namun yang bisa ia ingat adalah ikan lumba-lumba itu telah menyelamatkannya.

    Ia memandang ke tengah laut dan melihat sang lumba-lumba putih melompat beberapa kali.

    But that day was unlucky day for that crocodile. After getting at the bank of the lake suddenly there was a big branch of the tree falling upon its neck. The crocodile could not move at all.

    Not long after the falling branch, finally there was a buffalo coming to the lake to drink.

    The buffalo saw the crocodile and the buffalo was afraid and would leave that lake soon. But the crocodile asked it sadly to help.

    The buffalo felt sad about it and decided to help the crocodile.

    Near the lake, kancil saw the buffalo and the crocodile.

    Kancil asked: “what happened?”

    And the buffalo answered: “the crocodile bite my leg after I help to remove the big branch from its neck”.

    The crocodile also said: “I’m hungry and you are at my territory, therefore I bit you poor buffalo.”

    The crocodile laughed at the buffalo.

    Kancil said to buffalo, “It is impossible you had helped the crocodile, thus the crocodile had the right to bite you.”

    The buffalo said, “I’m not telling a lie. I can prove it.”

    Kancil said, “I believe that crocodile is right, but then you can try to prove your telling. But first crocodile must release your bite, okay?”

    Crocodile said, “Okay, it is easy, but after that I will eat the buffalo.”

    Kancil said, “Okay, deal.”

    Resolution

    The buffalo laid the big branch at the former position, upon the crocodile’s neck.

    After that suddenly kancil said, “Lets run buffalo, lets run!”

    The buffalo and kancil run as fast as possible and the crocodile had realized that it is had been fooled by kancil.

  67. What are the pros and cons of falling in love with your best friend?

    Everyone must have best friends in their lives. A best friend is someone you believe you can trust your life with. A best friend is the first person you call when you have the most amazing things in your life, and when you are in the most horrific incidents. But, what if you fall in love with your best friends? If you have decided to choose your best friend as someone you will share your life with, there is a lot to consider. Take a moment to consider the advantages and disadvantages of taking your friendship to the next level.

    Having a serious relationship with someone you’ve only been best friends until now may not be an easy task, but the following advantages may just make taking the risk worth it. Firstly, you have already laid the groundwork. A strong emotional bond is a strong foundation of any successful relationship. Next, you can bypass the awkward stuff. The good news about dating your best friend is that you can simply enjoy the excitement of taking your relationship to the next level. Besides, you have already had a solid emotional bond and have shared history of togetherness such as graduating from the same university together or gathering family by your side. Having shared important moments in each other’s lives will make your connection stronger and even more likely to last.

    On the other side, dating your best friend has also some disadvantages. Before taking a romantic relationship with your best friend, take a moment to consider the following drawbacks. First, are you willing to make the sacrifice? What if it doesn’t last? If you break up, you might loss your friendship forever. Second, there is always a possibility for not having a mutual feeling between both of you. Decide in advance what your plans might be if your friend does not reciprocate: can you continue your friendship with him/her? Could you take it if he/she dates someone else? Third, although you’ll bypass the awkward getting-to-know-you stage, missing out on discovering a new person, their personality and their interests could prove to be a little boring for you.

    While there are risks involved with confessing romantic feelings to your best friend, it is worth remembering that the greatest and most successful relationships often grow from great friendships, and it might just be the best decision you’ll ever make.

    Once upon a time, there were two close friends who were walking through the forest together. They knew that anything dangerous can happen any time in the forest. So they promised each other that they would always be together in any case of danger.

    Suddenly, they saw a large bear getting closer toward them. One of them climbed a nearby tree at once. But unfortunately the other one did not know how to climb up the tree. So being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless and pretended to be a dead man.

    The bear came near the one who was lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place because the bears do not want to touch the dead creatures. After that, the friend on the tree came down and asked his friend that was on the ground, "Friend, what did the bear whisper into your ears?" The other friend replied, "Just now the bear advised me not to believe a false friend."

    Moral of the Story- A true friend in need is a friend indeed.

    Tiba-tiba, mereka melihat beruang besar sedang semakin mendekat ke arah mereka. Salah satu dari mereka memanjat pohon terdekat seketika. Tetapi sayangnya satu yang lainnya tidak tahu bagaimana cara untuk memanjat pohon. Jadi terdorong oleh akal sehatnya, ia berbaring di tanah, menahan napas, dan berpura-pura menjadi orang yang sudah mati.

    Beruang itu datang mendekati orang yang sedang berbaring di tanah tersebut. Mencium di telinganya, dan perlahan-lahan meninggalkan tempat karena beruang tidak ingin menyentuh makhluk yang sudah mati. Setelah itu, teman di pohon turun dan bertanya ke pada temannya yang berbaring di tanah itu, " Teman , apa yang beruang bisikan ke telingamu ? " Teman lain menjawab, "Tadi beruang itu menyarankan saya untuk tidak mempercayai teman palsu."

    'I know only one trick to get away from dogs,' said the cat. 'You should teach me some of yours!'
    'Well, maybe some day, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler ones,' replied the fox airily.

  77. Origin of the Snail House
    In ancient times, the snails did not bring their home anywhere. In the beginning, snails lived in an abandoned bird’s nest in the trees. The night was warm and the day was cool because the leaves shaded the nest where the snails lived. But when the rains came, the leaves could no longer block the rain that fell. Snails caught cold and wet when the rainy season arrived.

    Then the snails moved into the holes in the trunks of trees. When the day was hot, the snails were well protected, even if it rained. It looked like that I had found a suitable home for me, the snail said in his heart.
    But on a sunny day, there came a woodpecker. Tok..tok … tok … woodpecker kept pecking the trunks where the snails lived. Snails became very distracted and could not sleep. With annoyed heart, snails went out of the hole in the trunk and looked for a place to stay next. Snails found a hole in the ground, which seemed to be warm when the night came, thought snails. Snails cleaned up those holes and decided to stay in it. But it turned out when the night came. The rats came from all directions to damage the hole. Again and again, the snails had to leave the hole to find a new home.

    Snails then moved on to the edge of the beach filled with coral reefs. He thought that the sidelines of the corals might be his home. Snails could take a rest peacefully in this place. But when the tide rose up to the top of the rock, snail was swept away along with the surge of the waves. As usual, the snails had to go away to find a new home. When he was walking away from the beach, the snail found an empty shell. This shape was beautiful and very light. Being tired and cold, snails went into the shell. Snails felt warm and comfortable then he slept in it.

    When the morning came, snails realized that he had found the best home for himself. He did not need to go home in hurry if it rained. He also would not get heat anymore, and no one would bother him. He then brought it home with him wherever he went.

  78. Asal Mula Rumah Siput

    Pada zaman dahulu, siput tidak membawa rumahnya kemana-mana. Awalnya siput tinggal di sarang burung yang sudah ditinggalkan induk burung di atas pohon. Malam terasa hangat dan siang terasa sejuk karena daun-daun menaungi sarang tempat siput tinggal. Tetapi ketika musim hujan datang, daun-daun itu tidak bisa lagi menghalangi air hujan yang jatuh. Siput menjadi basah dan kedinginan saat musim hujan tiba.

    Kemudian siput pindah ke dalam lubang yang ada di batang-batang pohon. Jika hari panas, siput terlindung dengan baik, bahkan jika hujan turun. Sepertinya aku menemukan rumah yang cocok untukku, kata si siput dalam hati.
    Tetapi pada suatu hari yang cerah, datanglah burung pelatuk. Tok..tok…tok…burung pelatuk terus mematuk batang pohon tempat siput tinggal. Siput menjadi terganggu dan tidak bisa tidur. Dengan hati jengkel, siput keluar dari lubang yang ada di batang pohon tersebut dan mencari tempat tinggal selanjutnya. Siput menemukan sebuah lubang di tanah, yang nampaknya hangat jika malam datang, pikir siput. Siput membersihkan lubang tersebut dan memutuskan untuk tinggal di dalamnya. Tetapi ternyata ketika malam datang, tikus-tikus datang dari segala arah merusak rumah siput. Lagi dan lagi, siput harus pergi meninggalkan lubang itu untuk mencari rumah baru.

    Siput kemudian berjalan terus sampai di tepi pantai yang penuh dengan batu karang. Ia berfikir sela-sela batu karang mungkin dapat menjadi rumahnya. Siput pun dapat beristirahat dengan tenang di tempat tersebut. Tetapi ketika air laut pasang dan naik sampai ke atas batu karang, siput ikut tersapu bersama dengan derasnya ombak tersebut. Seperti biasa, siput harus kembali pergi mencari rumah baru. Ketika ia sedang berjalan meninggalkan pantai, si siput menemukan sebuah cangkang kosong, bentuknya cantik dan sangat ringan. Karena lelah dan kedinginan, siput masuk ke dalam cangkang tersebut. Siput merasa hangat dan nyaman lalu tertidur di dalamnya.

    Ketika pagi tiba, siput menyadari telah menemukan rumah terbaik untuknya. Ia tidak perlu lagi cepat-cepat pulang jika hujan turun. Ia juga tidak akan kepanasan lagi, dan tidak ada yang akan mengganggunya. Ia kemudian membawa rumah ini bersamanya kemanapun ia pergi.

It’s just a matter of intensity. However, it is quite shocking when one reliable survey claims Jakarta as the most corrupt place in Indonesia.



    (Apa kamu tahu arti dari korupsi? Apa hubungannya uang dengan korupsi? Baiklah, korupsi merupakan hal yang umum di dunia, bahkan di Amerika. Hanya merupakan masalah intensitas. Tetapi, sangat mengejutkan ketika salah satu survey menyatakan bahwa Jakarta merupakan tempat yang paling banyak melakukan korupsi di Indonesia)

    Argument 1
    The survey has made me sad, actually, because I stay and earn a living here in the capital. As most people know, Tanjung Priok port smuggling is not a new thing at all. Entrepreneurs who want to minimize their tax payments tend to do such a thing more often. They even bribe the officials.


    (Survei tersebut membuat saya sedih sebenarnya, karena saya tinggal dan hidup di sini di ibu kota. Seperti yang semua tahu, penyeludupan di pelabuhan Tanjung Priok bukan merupakan barang baru lagi. Para pengusaha yang ingin mengurangi pajak perdagangan mereka melakukan hal seperti itu sering kali. Mereka bahkan menyogok pihak berwenang.)

  82. Well, I think the measures taken so far to overcome the problem by punishing the corruptors is still not far enough. We have to prevent the younger generations from getting a bad mentality caused by corruption.

    (Baiklah, saya pikir ukuran yang diambil sejauh ini untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut dengan menghukum para koruptor masih jauh dari kata cukup. Kita harus mencegah para generasi muda dari sikap buruk yang disebabkan oleh korupsi.)

    Recommendation
    I believe we should start at the earliest stages in school and I think everyone should be involved in the effort to eradicate corruption. We must not make any distinction.

    Adapted from: The Jakarta Post, February 2005

    (Saya percaya kita harus memulai langkah awal tersebut dari sekolah dan saya pikir semua orang harus di ikut sertakan dalam usaha untuk membasmi korupsi. Kita harus tidak membuat pengecualian apa pun.)

  86. Gesang Should hold a National Hero Status
    "Those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it" and "A great nation is one which fully appreciates its heroes." say popular English aphorism and national adage. Then, proposing an important person who has taken a role in our nation history is important. I think Gesang should be a national hero.
    Who have never heard Bengawan Solo song? I doubt it if there is. This keroncong song has been a part of national voices. Gesang is a senior composer whose songs gained fame all the way to Japan. He has received a number of awards in art and everyone will admit that his art talent was dedicated to this nation.
    Government has declared the other great composer; WR. Suratman and Ismail Marzuki as national Heroes. Gesang might not be compared to others, but in my opinion, Gesang is as great as them. All of them are maestros. Due to his keroncong music maestro, Gesang has taken a role in building our national identity.
    It is obvious that government should name Gesang National Hero. We should not delay and wait for, in case, our neighbor countries or other international communities go a head to recognize him and grant an award for what he deserves.
    4.Gesang Harus Mendapatkan Status Pahlawan Nasional
    "Mereka yang tidak belajar dari sejarah dikutuk untuk mengulanginya" dan "A bangsa yang besar adalah salah satu yang sepenuhnya menghargai pahlawan." mengatakan pepatah bahasa Inggris populer dan pepatah nasional. Kemudian, mengusulkan orang penting yang telah mengambil peran dalam sejarah bangsa kita adalah penting. Saya pikir Gesang harus menjadi pahlawan nasional.
    Yang belum pernah mendengar lagu Bengawan Solo? Saya ragu jika ada. Lagu keroncong ini telah menjadi bagian dari suara nasional. Gesang adalah komposer senior yang yang mendapatkan ketenaran lagu sepanjang jalan ke Jepang. Dia telah menerima sejumlah penghargaan dalam seni dan semua orang akan mengakui bahwa bakat seninya didedikasikan untuk bangsa ini.
    Pemerintah telah menyatakan komposer besar lainnya; WR. Pahlawan nasional sebagai Suratman dan Ismail Marzuki. Gesang mungkin tidak dibandingkan dengan orang lain, tapi menurut saya, Gesang sama besar seperti mereka. Semua dari mereka adalah maestro. Karena maestro musik keroncong itu, Gesang telah mengambil peran dalam membangun identitas nasional kami.
    Hal ini jelas bahwa pemerintah harus nama Gesang Pahlawan Nasional. Kita tidak harus menunda dan menunggu, dalam kasus, negara-negara tetangga kita atau komunitas internasional lainnya pergi kepala untuk mengakui dia dan memberikan penghargaan untuk apa yang dia layak

  87. Tourism Benefit on Local People
    What is the benefit of tourism for local people? Well, Tourism is now a huge contributor to the economies of most countries. Tourism industries can bring money, job vacancy and advancement especially to developing regions. However, this money often goes into the pockets of foreign investors, and only rarely benefits for local people.
    Tourism industries will not give much benefit for local people if, for example, multinational hotel chains don't care about the surrounding nature when they build new hotels. This can cause many social, cultural and geographical problems. Some local people may get job and money from that International hotel chain. However in case of missing that opportunity, some of them still have their own environment.
    Moreover, some facts show that tourists tend to go, visit and spend their money in restaurants, bars and even luxury hotels of that multinational chains. They less go to such places; restaurant, bar, hotel, shop which are owned by local people. This can prevent the local people's business from becoming even larger.
    Most important thing, tours or excursions of tourism have little effect on nature. Even it can disrupt or destroy ecosystems and environments, and if it does, the local people will get the risk.
    So the local government policies should be put in place to ensure that tourism will make the benefit spreading widely. The policies should guarantee that tourism will not cause any harm to any local people or places.

    5. Manfaat Pariwisata pada Masyarakat Lokal
    Apa manfaat pariwisata bagi masyarakat lokal? Pariwisata Nah, sekarang menjadi kontributor besar terhadap perekonomian sebagian besar negara. Industri pariwisata dapat membawa uang, lowongan dan kemajuan terutama untuk daerah-daerah berkembang. Namun, uang ini sering masuk ke kantong investor asing, dan jarang manfaat bagi masyarakat setempat.
    Industri pariwisata tidak akan memberikan banyak manfaat bagi masyarakat lokal jika, misalnya, jaringan hotel multinasional tidak peduli tentang alam sekitarnya ketika mereka membangun hotel baru. Hal ini dapat menyebabkan banyak masalah sosial, budaya dan geografis. Beberapa orang lokal mungkin mendapatkan pekerjaan dan uang itu jaringan hotel Internasional. Namun dalam kasus hilang kesempatan itu, beberapa dari mereka masih memiliki lingkungan mereka sendiri.
    Selain itu, beberapa fakta menunjukkan bahwa wisatawan cenderung untuk pergi, mengunjungi dan menghabiskan uang mereka di restoran, bar dan hotel bahkan kemewahan yang rantai multinasional. Mereka kurang pergi ke tempat-tempat seperti; restoran, bar, hotel, toko yang dimiliki oleh orang-orang lokal. Hal ini dapat mencegah bisnis masyarakat lokal dari menjadi lebih besar.
    Yang paling penting hal, wisata atau kunjungan pariwisata memiliki sedikit efek pada alam. Bahkan dapat mengganggu atau merusak ekosistem dan lingkungan, dan jika tidak, masyarakat akan mendapatkan risiko.
    Jadi kebijakan pemerintah daerah harus diletakkan di tempat untuk memastikan bahwa pariwisata akan membuat saling penyebaran secara luas. Kebijakan harus menjamin bahwa pariwisata tidak akan menyebabkan kerusakan apapun kepada orang lokal atau tempat.

  88. Removing Lead From Patrol
    In all the discussion over the removal of lead from petrol (and the atmosphere) there doesn't seem to have been any mention of the difference between driving in the city and the country.
    While I realize my leaded petrol car is polluting the air wherever I drive, I feel that when you travel through the country, where you only see the another car every five to ten minutes, the problem is not as severe as when traffic is concentrated on city roads.
    Those who want to penalize older, leaded petrol vehicles and their owners don't seem to appreciate that, in the country, there is no public transport to fall back upon and one's own vehicle is the only way to get about.
    I feel that the country people, who often have to travel huge distances to the nearest town and who already spend a great deal of money on petrol, should be treated differently to the people who live in the city.
    6.Removing Timbal Dari Patroli
    Dalam semua diskusi selama penghapusan timbal dari bensin (dan suasana) ada tampaknya tidak telah penyebutan perbedaan antara mengemudi di kota dan negara.
    Sementara aku menyadari mobil bensin bertimbal saya mencemari udara di mana pun saya pergi, saya merasa bahwa ketika Anda melakukan perjalanan melalui negara, di mana Anda hanya melihat mobil lain setiap lima sampai sepuluh menit, masalahnya tidak separah ketika lalu lintas terkonsentrasi pada jalan kota.
    Mereka yang ingin menghukum tua, kendaraan bensin bertimbal dan pemiliknya tampaknya tidak menghargai itu, di negara ini, tidak ada angkutan umum untuk jatuh kembali pada dan satu kendaraan sendiri adalah satu-satunya cara untuk mendapatkan sekitar.
    Saya merasa bahwa orang-orang negara, yang sering harus melakukan perjalanan jarak besar ke kota terdekat dan yang sudah menghabiskan banyak uang pada bensin, harus diperlakukan berbeda dengan orang-orang yang tinggal di kota.

  89. Why You Should Not Smoke
    I am sure that you know that smoking harms your body. Then why do you continue smoking? Maybe you do it because you haven’t really become conscious about all the effects that smoking has. There are a lot of reasons why you shouldn’t smoke. Some of them are that smoking affects your health, that you spend a lot of money on cigarettes, and that when you smoke you are not respecting people around you.
    The first reason why you shouldn’t smoke is that smoking affects your health. If you smoke, your physical condition will be negatively affected, so it will be very difficult for you to succeed in sports. Also, smoking produces lethal diseases like cancer and reduces the length and quality of your life. Maybe you don’t notice all the physical effects of smoking immediately, but you surely will be sorry one day.
    The second reason why you shouldn’t smoke is because of all the money that you spend on it. Maybe you start smoking only when someone offers you a cigarette, but there will be a day when you will feel the need of a cigarette. By this time, you will pay whatever to smoke, and each time you will smoke more, so you will spend more money. All the money you would spend on cigars could have be spent in something better, don’t you think?
    The last reason why you shouldn’t smoke is out of respect for the people around you. When you smoke, you not only harm yourself, but you also harm all the people around you. So you mustn’t be selfish; you should at least avoid smoking in front of people who don’t smoke. Also, many people don’t like the cigarette’s smell, so they won’t enjoy your company. Would you like that?
    I have said just some reasons of why you shouldn’t smoke, so I hope that now those of you who smoke are able to think a little and try to make a smart decision. In addition to all the reasons I’ve said, I would like you to think about how much you love yourself and then whether you want to continue harming yourself. Think also about all the people who love you, like your family who doesn’t want to see you suffering or sick. If you decide to continue smoking, what a pity. But if you decide to stop smoking, congratulations! Remember that "If you can dream it, you can do it.

  90. Mengapa anda tidak harus merokok
    Saya yakin bahwa Anda tahu bahwa merokok merugikan tubuh Anda. Lalu mengapa Anda terus merokok? Mungkin Anda melakukannya karena Anda belum benar-benar menjadi sadar tentang semua efek merokok yang memiliki. Ada banyak alasan mengapa Anda tidak harus merokok. Beberapa dari mereka adalah bahwa merokok mempengaruhi kesehatan Anda, bahwa Anda menghabiskan banyak uang pada rokok, dan bahwa ketika Anda merokok Anda tidak menghormati orang di sekitar Anda.
    Alasan pertama mengapa Anda tidak harus merokok adalah bahwa merokok mempengaruhi kesehatan Anda. Jika Anda merokok, kondisi fisik Anda akan terpengaruh secara negatif, sehingga akan sangat sulit bagi Anda untuk berhasil dalam olahraga. Juga, merokok menghasilkan penyakit mematikan seperti kanker dan mengurangi panjang dan kualitas hidup Anda. Mungkin Anda tidak melihat semua efek fisik merokok segera, tetapi Anda pasti akan menyesal satu hari.
    Alasan kedua mengapa Anda tidak harus merokok adalah karena semua uang yang Anda habiskan untuk itu. Mungkin Anda mulai merokok hanya ketika seseorang menawarkan rokok, tapi akan ada hari ketika Anda akan merasa perlu rokok. Pada saat ini, Anda akan membayar apa pun untuk merokok, dan setiap kali Anda akan merokok lebih banyak, sehingga Anda akan menghabiskan lebih banyak uang. Semua uang yang Anda akan menghabiskan pada cerutu bisa dihabiskan dalam sesuatu yang lebih baik, bukan begitu?
    Alasan terakhir mengapa Anda tidak harus merokok adalah untuk menghormati orang-orang di sekitar Anda. Ketika Anda merokok, Anda tidak hanya merugikan diri sendiri, tetapi Anda juga merugikan semua orang di sekitar Anda. Jadi Anda tidak harus egois; Anda setidaknya harus menghindari merokok di depan orang yang tidak merokok. Juga, banyak orang tidak suka bau rokok, sehingga mereka tidak akan menikmati perusahaan Anda. Apakah Anda ingin itu?
    Saya telah mengatakan hanya beberapa alasan mengapa Anda tidak harus merokok, jadi saya berharap bahwa sekarang Anda yang merokok dapat berpikir sedikit dan mencoba untuk membuat keputusan cerdas. Selain semua alasan yang telah saya katakan, saya ingin Anda untuk berpikir tentang berapa banyak Anda mencintai diri sendiri dan kemudian apakah Anda ingin terus merugikan diri sendiri. Pikirkan juga tentang semua orang yang mencintai Anda, seperti keluarga yang tidak ingin melihat Anda menderita atau sakit. Jika Anda memutuskan untuk terus merokok, sayang. Tapi jika Anda memutuskan untuk berhenti merokok, selamat! Ingat bahwa "Jika Anda dapat memimpikannya, Anda dapat melakukannya.

  91. Why People Should Exercise
    In the past, I have never been inclined to participate in sports. Honestly, I didn’t like it, but many persons whom I lived with kept telling me everyday how good it was.

Doing exercise helps you set specific goals which along with strong will can be achieved. When you do that, you are aware of your abilities, accept your weaknesses, and your self-esteem goes up. Any sport distracts you because it helps you not to think about school, friends, problems, among other things. It brings you time to think about yourself and no one else.

  93. True Friends
    Once upon a time, there were two close friends who were walking through the forest together. They knew that anything dangerous can happen any time in the forest. So they promised each other that they would always be together in any case of danger.
    Suddenly, they saw a large bear getting closer toward them. One of them climbed a nearby tree at once. But unfortunately the other one did not know how to climb up the tree. So being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless and pretended to be a dead man.
    The bear came near the one who was lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place because the bears do not want to touch the dead creatures. After that, the friend on the tree came down and asked his friend that was on the ground, “Friend, what did the bear whisper into your ears?” The other friend replied, “Just now the bear advised me not to believe a false friend”.
    Moral of the Story – A true friend in need is a friend indeed.

Tetapi sayangnya teman yang satu lagi tidak tahu bagaimana caranya memanjat pohon. Jadi dia hanya terdorong oleh akal sehatnya, kemudian ia berbaring di tanah, menahan napasnya, dan berpura-pura menjadi orang yang sudah mati.
    Kemudian beruang itu datang dan mendekati orang yang sedang berbaring di tanah tersebut. Beruang itu pun mencium-cium telinganya, dan perlahan-lahan meninggalkan tempat tersebut karena beruang tidak mau menyentuh makhluk yang sudah mati. Setelah itu, temannya yang di pohon turun ke bawah dan bertanya kepada temannya yang berbaring di tanah itu, “Teman, apa yang beruang bisikkan ke telingamu?”, si temannya itu menjawab, “Tadi beruang itu mengatakan kepada saya untuk tidak percaya terhadap teman palsu”.

  94. There was once a young shepherd boy who tended his sheep at the foot of a mountain near a dark forest. 1 It was lonely for him watching the sheep all day. No one was near, except for three farmers he could sometimes see working in the fi elds in the valley below.

    One day the boy thought of a plan that would help him get a little company and have some fun. 3 He ran down toward the valley crying, “Wolf! Wolf!”

    The men ran to meet him, and after they found out there was no wolf after all, one man remained to talk with the boy awhile.

    The boy enjoyed the company so much that a few days later he tried the same prank again, and again the men ran to help him.

    A few days later, a real wolf came from the forest and began to steal the sheep. The startled 6 boy ran toward the valley, and more loudly than ever he cried, “Wolf! Wolf!”

    One day, a cat and a fox were having a conversation. The fox, who was a conceited creature, boasted how clever she was. “Why, I know at least a hundred tricks to get away from our mutual enemies, the dogs,” she said.
    “I know only one trick to get away from dogs,” said the cat. “You should teach me some of yours!”.
    “Well, maybe someday, when I have the time, I may teach you a few of the simpler ones”, replied the fox airily.
    Just then they heard the barking of a pack of dogs in the distance. The barking grew louder and louder – the dogs were coming in their direction! At once the cat ran to the nearest tree and climbed into its branches, well out of reach of any dog. “This is the trick I told you about, the only one I know”, said the cat. “Which one of your hundred tricks are you going to use?”.
    The fox sat silently under the tree, wondering which trick she should use. Before she could make up her mind, the dogs arrived. They fell upon the fox and tore her to pieces.

    “Baiklah, mungkin suatu hari nanti, ketika aku punya waktu, aku bisa mengajarimu beberapa trik yang sederhana”, jawab si rubah dengan santai.
    Sesaat kemudian, mereka mendengar gonggongan sekawanan anjing dari kejauhan, gonggongan tersebut semakin keras, anjing pun datang menuju ke arah mereka! Seketika si kucing berlari ke pohon yang paling dekat dan kemudian naik ke cabang-cabangnya, dan di luar jangkauan anjing. “Ini adalah trik yang aku katakan tadi, satu-satunya yang aku tahu”, kata si kucing. “Mana salah satu dari seratus trikmu yang akan kamu gunakan?”.

  99. Once a farmer went to the nest of his goose and found there an egg, all yellow and shiny. When he picked it up, it was heavy as a rock. 1 He was about to throw it away because he thought that someone was playing a trick on him. 2 But on second thought, he took it home, and discovered to his delight that it was an egg of pure gold!

    He sold the egg for a lot of money. Every morning the goose laid another golden egg, and the farmer soon became rich by selling the eggs.

    As he grew rich, he also grew greedy. 6 “Why should I have to wait to get only one egg a day?” he thought. “I will cut open the goose and take all the eggs out of her at once.”

    When the goose heard the farmer’s plan, she fl ew away to a nearby farm. So when the farmer came out the next day, do you know what he found in the goose’s nest? 8 Nothing.

    Moral: Someone who wants more often loses all. When you want something, be patient. If you are greedy, you might lose what you already have.

  100. The Fox and The Grapes
    One afternoon there was a fox that was walking through the forest and spotted a bunch of grapes hanging from over a lofty branch. “Just the thing to quench my thirst,” quoted the fox. Taking a few steps backward, the fox jumped but unfortunately he missed the hanging grapes. Again the fox took a few paces backward, ran, and tried to reach them but he still failed.
    Finally, giving up, the fox turned up his nose and said, “They’re probably sour anyway,” and proceeded to walk away.

  102. The Ant and the Dove
    One hot day, an ant was seeking for some water. After walking around for a moment, she came to a spring. To reach the spring, she had to climb up a blade of grass. While making her way up, she slipped and fell unintentionally into the water.
    She could have sunk if a dove up a nearby tree had not seen her. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the dove quickly put off a leaf from a tree and dropped it immediately into the water near the struggling ant. Then the ant moved towards the leaf and climbed up there. Soon it carried her safely to dry ground.
    Not long after at that, there was a hunter nearby who was throwing out his net towards the dove, hoping to trap it in this way.
    Guessing what he should do, the ant quickly bit him on the heel. Feeling the pain, the hunter dropped his net and the dove flew away quickly from this net.

    Dia mungkin bisa saja tenggelam jika burung merpati yang sedang di atas pohon di dekatnya itu tidak melihatnya. Karena melihat si semut sedang dalam kesulitan, burung merpati pun cepat memetik daun dari pohon dan langsung menjatuhkannya ke dalam air dekat si semut yang mencoba menyelamatkan diri itu. Kemudian si semut pun bergerak menuju daun dan kemudian naik ke atasnya. Daun itu membawanya ke darat dengan selamat.
    Tidak lama kemudian, ada seorang pemburu yang membuang jaring ke arah burung merpati, berharap dengan cara ini bisa menjebak si burung merpati.
    Berpikir sejenak tentang apa yang harus dia lakukan, kemudian semut cepat menggigit tumit orang tersebut. Karena merasa sakit, si pemburu akhirnya menjatuhkan jaringnya dan kemudian burung merpati terbang keluar dari jaring tersebut dengan cepat.

  118. Once there was a wolf who was nearly dead with hunger. He was very thin, so that the outline of his bones could be seen clearly beneath his thinning coat of hair. With hardly enough energy to walk, the wolf had little hope of finding food. As he lay beneath a large tree, a dog out for a walk noticed him. Seeing how thin and hungry-looking the wolf was, the dog felt sorry for him and said, "You are in terrible shape! You look as if you haven't eaten for many days."

    "You're right," said the wolf. "I haven't eaten because you and your friends are doing such a good job of guarding the sheep. Now I am so weak that I have little hope of finding food. I think I will surely die."

    Then why not join us? Asked the dog. "I work regularly and I eat regularly. You could do the same. I will arrange it. You can help me and the other dogs guard the sheep. In that way, we won't have to worry about your stealing the sheep any more and you won't have to worry about going hungry any more. It's a good deal for both of us."

But, as they were walking, the wolf noticed that the hair on a certain part of the dog's neck was very thin. He was curious about this, for the dog had such a beautiful coat every where else. Finally, he asked the dog about it.

    "Oh, don't worry about that," said the dog. "It's the place where the collar rubs on my neck when my master chains me up at night."

    "Chained up!" cried the wolf, "Do you mean that you are chained up at night? If I come to live with you, will I be chained up at night too?"

    That's right," answered the dog. "But, You'll get used to it soon enough. I hardly think about it anymore."

  120. Example of hortatory exposition about Corruption / Korupsi

    Thesis
    Do you know what the meaning of corruption is? What is the relation between money and corruption? Well, corruption is common everywhere in the world, even in the United States. It’s just a matter of intensity. However, it is quite shocking when one reliable survey claims Jakarta as the most corrupt place in Indonesia.

    Argument 1
    The survey has made me sad, actually, because I stay and earn a living here in the capital. As most people know, Tanjung Priok port smuggling is not a new thing at all. Entrepreneurs who want to minimize their tax payments tend to do such a thing more often. They even bribe the officials.

    Argument 2
    Well, I think the measures taken so far to overcome the problem by punishing the corruptors is still not far enough. We have to prevent the younger generations from getting a bad mentality caused by corruption.

    Recommendation
    I believe we should start at the earliest stages in school and I think everyone should be involved in the effort to eradicate corruption. We must not make any distinction.
    Example of hortatory exposition about Where should be after High School?

    Thesis
    The National examination result will be publicly enounced in next short time. Euphoria will flood for those who get success. In the other hand, It will be sorry to hear that there are some of them do not succeed in their national final examination. For those who succeed soon will think to decide; where will they be after graduating high school? Actually it will be easy to decide for those has been arranged and thought earlier but for those have not planed yet, it will be quite confusing.

    Argument 1
    Continuing study or looking for work is the primary choice among them. When they think about continuing study, they will think hard about the time and cost. How long the higher study will last? And how high is about the cost. In the same way, when they think about straightly seeking job, what skill and competence they have got is a big matter of questioning. So, doing both choices in the same time is an alternative.

    Argument 2
    Continuing study as well as seeking job is possibly done but it will be hard for them. Conventionally studying in the university needs much time to spend especially in the first year. It is true because they have to do and adapt a lot of things in their new higher school. it will be very hard to looking for job. Therefore it should come to their mind of continuing studying at higher school from their own home. As result, the available time will be more flexible for them. Then it will be very possible to seek job and get the appropriate one. This type of studying is publicly known as distance learning.

    Recommendation
    As the alternative method of studying, besides the conventional studying which students and the lecturer have to meet in the fixed time and place regularly, distance learning provides possibility to grow better. Possibly working and studying surely will create high quality graduate. Distance learning should appear as a considerable choice for them.

  121. But, if I am chained up, then I won't be able to walk when I want to take a walk or to run where I want to run," the wolf said. "If I come to live with you, I won't be free anymore." After saying this, the wolf turned and ran away.

    Moral: Freedom is everything!

Kancil and the others came back, they found the basket empty again. Kancil was very angry with his three friends. He shouted, “What’s the use of having such big and strong bodies, if you can’t even chase away one single giant. This time I will stay here myself. Do you think I am too small to do this job? Go away , the three of you, and catch as a many fish as you can. When you come back, you will find that robber lying here in front of me, bound and helpless.”

    “What is going to happen today?” asked the giant curiously.
    “I thought everybody knew about it,” answered Kancil. “You must have been asleep when Nabi Sulaiman came into the forest to warn all the animals about the big flood. The big flood will carry everybody away to the see, unless he takes precaution to be safe.”
    “Oh, I have not heard about this flood,” answered the giant, who believe every word Kancil said, “Tell me, what do you do to avoid being carried away?”
    “Don’t you see what I am doing” said Kancil. “I bind myself to these roots, so that the water will not drag me away

    “That’s a very good idea,” said the stupid giant. “Won’t you help me a little?”
    “Why not? I am always ready to help somebody in need,” answered Kancil. “But these reeds are not strong enough to hold your heavy body. Why don’t you go into the forest and collect a big bunch of thick rattan? I shall wait for you here. But hurry, we don’t have much time as the flood will come soon after noon.”

  127. The stupid giant, afraid of losing his life, ran into the woods and soon came back with a big load of rattan. Kancil told him to bind his own legs tightly together with the rattan, then sit with his back against a big tree so that Kancil could help him tie his body against the tree trunk. The giant did everything Kancil said. Soon he was sitting boud and helpless against the tree. To be completely safe, Kancil wound several more pieces of rattan round him so that the giant could hardly move.

    Then the clever little animal called out to his friends who were still busy catching fish some distance away. Swine, Tiger and Elephant did not have much trouble killing their enemy.
    Of course, Kancil did not tell them that he had tricked the giant, and the other three animals thought that he had fought with him. They all admired his enormous strength. They gave Kancil the biggest share of the fish, and after having finished their meal each of them went his own way.

  129. Who can help me?” asked the king. He sent for the king of the mice.
    The mouse asked the king to place thousands of stick. Each one foot long, by the side of the river.
    The next night, all the mice used these sticks as boats to carry them across the river. The soldiers of other country were fast asleep when the mice quietly entered their camp. Some of them threw the soldier’s swords and guns into the river. Other ate their food. Yet others bit their toes. The soldier woke up. They did not know what had happened. They could not find their swords and guns and they thought they had been attacked by the king’s soldier. They ran away as fast as they could.
    The king quickly asked the king of the mice to come to see him.
    “Mr. mouse, you have saved my country,” he said. “Please tell me what you would like in return.”
    The mouse replied. “O King, we only want to live in peace. Please send away all the cats from your country.”
    The king did as he was asked. He gave orders for all the cats to leave immediately.
    The king of the mice thanked the king. “cats are our worst enemy,” he said. “We can now live very happily for the rest of our lives.”

  134. Gesang Should hold a National Hero Status
    46. "Those who don't learn from history are condemned to repeat it" and "A great nation is one which fully appreciates its heroes." say popular English aphorism and national adage. Then, proposing an important person who has taken a role in our nation history is important. I think Gesang should be a national hero.
    47. Who have never heard Bengawan Solo song? I doubt it if there is. This keroncong song has been a part of national voices. Gesang is a senior composer whose songs gained fame all the way to Japan. He has received a number of awards in art and everyone will admit that his art talent was dedicated to this nation.
    48. Government has declared the other great composer; WR. Suratman and Ismail Marzuki as national Heroes. Gesang might not be compared to others, but in my opinion, Gesang is as great as them. All of them are maestros. Due to his keroncong music maestro, Gesang has taken a role in building our national identity.
    49. It is obvious that government should name Gesang National Hero. We should not delay and wait for, in case, our neighbor countries or other international communities go a head to recognize him and grant an award for what he deserves.
    50. 4.Gesang Harus Mendapatkan Status Pahlawan Nasional
    51. "Mereka yang tidak belajar dari sejarah dikutuk untuk mengulanginya" dan "A bangsa yang besar adalah salah satu yang sepenuhnya menghargai pahlawan." mengatakan pepatah bahasa Inggris populer dan pepatah nasional. Kemudian, mengusulkan orang penting yang telah mengambil peran dalam sejarah bangsa kita adalah penting. Saya pikir Gesang harus menjadi pahlawan nasional.
    52. Yang belum pernah mendengar lagu Bengawan Solo? Saya ragu jika ada. Lagu keroncong ini telah menjadi bagian dari suara nasional. Gesang adalah komposer senior yang yang mendapatkan ketenaran lagu sepanjang jalan ke Jepang. Dia telah menerima sejumlah penghargaan dalam seni dan semua orang akan mengakui bahwa bakat seninya didedikasikan untuk bangsa ini.
    53. Pemerintah telah menyatakan komposer besar lainnya; WR. Pahlawan nasional sebagai Suratman dan Ismail Marzuki. Gesang mungkin tidak dibandingkan dengan orang lain, tapi menurut saya, Gesang sama besar seperti mereka. Semua dari mereka adalah maestro. Karena maestro musik keroncong itu, Gesang telah mengambil peran dalam membangun identitas nasional kami.
    54. Hal ini jelas bahwa pemerintah harus nama Gesang Pahlawan Nasional. Kita tidak harus menunda dan menunggu, dalam kasus, negara-negara tetangga kita atau komunitas internasional lainnya pergi kepala untuk mengakui dia dan memberikan penghargaan untuk apa yang dia layak.

  135. Tourism Benefit on Local People
    57. What is the benefit of tourism for local people? Well, Tourism is now a huge contributor to the economies of most countries. Tourism industries can bring money, job vacancy and advancement especially to developing regions. However, this money often goes into the pockets of foreign investors, and only rarely benefits for local people.
    58. Tourism industries will not give much benefit for local people if, for example, multinational hotel chains don't care about the surrounding nature when they build new hotels. This can cause many social, cultural and geographical problems. Some local people may get job and money from that International hotel chain. However in case of missing that opportunity, some of them still have their own environment.
    59. Moreover, some facts show that tourists tend to go, visit and spend their money in restaurants, bars and even luxury hotels of that multinational chains. They less go to such places; restaurant, bar, hotel, shop which are owned by local people. This can prevent the local people's business from becoming even larger.
    60. Most important thing, tours or excursions of tourism have little effect on nature. Even it can disrupt or destroy ecosystems and environments, and if it does, the local people will get the risk.
    61. So the local government policies should be put in place to ensure that tourism will make the benefit spreading widely. The policies should guarantee that tourism will not cause any harm to any local people or places.
    62.
    63. 5. Manfaat Pariwisata pada Masyarakat Lokal
    64. Apa manfaat pariwisata bagi masyarakat lokal? Pariwisata Nah, sekarang menjadi kontributor besar terhadap perekonomian sebagian besar negara. Industri pariwisata dapat membawa uang, lowongan dan kemajuan terutama untuk daerah-daerah berkembang. Namun, uang ini sering masuk ke kantong investor asing, dan jarang manfaat bagi masyarakat setempat.
    65. Industri pariwisata tidak akan memberikan banyak manfaat bagi masyarakat lokal jika, misalnya, jaringan hotel multinasional tidak peduli tentang alam sekitarnya ketika mereka membangun hotel baru. Hal ini dapat menyebabkan banyak masalah sosial, budaya dan geografis. Beberapa orang lokal mungkin mendapatkan pekerjaan dan uang itu jaringan hotel Internasional. Namun dalam kasus hilang kesempatan itu, beberapa dari mereka masih memiliki lingkungan mereka sendiri.
    66. Selain itu, beberapa fakta menunjukkan bahwa wisatawan cenderung untuk pergi, mengunjungi dan menghabiskan uang mereka di restoran, bar dan hotel bahkan kemewahan yang rantai multinasional. Mereka kurang pergi ke tempat-tempat seperti; restoran, bar, hotel, toko yang dimiliki oleh orang-orang lokal. Hal ini dapat mencegah bisnis masyarakat lokal dari menjadi lebih besar.
    67. Yang paling penting hal, wisata atau kunjungan pariwisata memiliki sedikit efek pada alam. Bahkan dapat mengganggu atau merusak ekosistem dan lingkungan, dan jika tidak, masyarakat akan mendapatkan risiko.
    68. Jadi kebijakan pemerintah daerah harus diletakkan di tempat untuk memastikan bahwa pariwisata akan membuat saling penyebaran secara luas. Kebijakan harus menjamin bahwa pariwisata tidak akan menyebabkan kerusakan apapun kepada orang lokal atau tempat.

  136. Removing Lead From Patrol
    71. In all the discussion over the removal of lead from petrol (and the atmosphere) there doesn't seem to have been any mention of the difference between driving in the city and the country.
    72. While I realize my leaded petrol car is polluting the air wherever I drive, I feel that when you travel through the country, where you only see the another car every five to ten minutes, the problem is not as severe as when traffic is concentrated on city roads.
    73. Those who want to penalize older, leaded petrol vehicles and their owners don't seem to appreciate that, in the country, there is no public transport to fall back upon and one's own vehicle is the only way to get about.
    74. I feel that the country people, who often have to travel huge distances to the nearest town and who already spend a great deal of money on petrol, should be treated differently to the people who live in the city.
    75. 6.Removing Timbal Dari Patroli
    76. Dalam semua diskusi selama penghapusan timbal dari bensin (dan suasana) ada tampaknya tidak telah penyebutan perbedaan antara mengemudi di kota dan negara.
    77. Sementara aku menyadari mobil bensin bertimbal saya mencemari udara di mana pun saya pergi, saya merasa bahwa ketika Anda melakukan perjalanan melalui negara, di mana Anda hanya melihat mobil lain setiap lima sampai sepuluh menit, masalahnya tidak separah ketika lalu lintas terkonsentrasi pada jalan kota.
    78. Mereka yang ingin menghukum tua, kendaraan bensin bertimbal dan pemiliknya tampaknya tidak menghargai itu, di negara ini, tidak ada angkutan umum untuk jatuh kembali pada dan satu kendaraan sendiri adalah satu-satunya cara untuk mendapatkan sekitar.
    79. Saya merasa bahwa orang-orang negara, yang sering harus melakukan perjalanan jarak besar ke kota terdekat dan yang sudah menghabiskan banyak uang pada bensin, harus diperlakukan berbeda dengan orang-orang yang tinggal di kota.

  137. Learning English through music and songs is Fun
    82. Learning English through music and songs can be very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure with learning when you listen to a song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some underlying reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.
    83. Firstly, “the song stuck in my head” Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard after leaving a restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving. This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our short-and-long term memory.
    84. Secondly, songs in general also use simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is just what many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them many times more motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically, and can be analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.
    85. Furthermore, song can be appropriated by listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and probably many other types don’t have precise people, place or time reference.
    86. In addition, songs are relaxing. They provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and within one group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion, patriotism and yeas, even revolution.
    87. Last but not least, there are many learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar, practicing selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary, spelling and culture.
    88. From the elaboration above, it can be concluded that learning through music and songs, learning English can be enjoyable and fun.
    89. 7.Belajar bahasa Inggris melalui musik dan lagu menyenangkan
    90. Belajar Bahasa Inggris melalui musik dan lagu bisa sangat menyenangkan. Anda dapat mencampur kesenangan dengan belajar ketika Anda mendengarkan lagu dan mengeksploitasi lagu sebagai sarana untuk kemajuan bahasa Inggris Anda. Beberapa alasan yang mendasari dapat ditarik untuk mendukung ide mengapa kita menggunakan lagu dalam pembelajaran bahasa.
    91. Pertama, "lagu terjebak dalam kepala saya" Fenomena (yang bergema dalam pikiran kita dari lagu terakhir kami mendengar setelah meninggalkan restoran, pusat perbelanjaan, dll) dapat menjadi menyenangkan dan kadang-kadang menakutkan. Fenomena ini juga tampaknya memperkuat gagasan bahwa lagu bekerja pada memori jangka pendek dan panjang.
    92. Kedua, lagu pada umumnya juga menggunakan bahasa percakapan sederhana, dengan banyak pengulangan, yang hanya apa yang banyak peserta didik mencari teks sampel. Fakta bahwa mereka efektif membuat mereka banyak kali lebih memotivasi daripada teks lain. Meskipun biasanya sederhana, beberapa lagu dapat sintaksis cukup kompleks, leksikal dan puitis, dan dapat dianalisis dengan cara yang sama seperti sampel sastra lainnya.
    93. Selanjutnya, lagu dapat disesuaikan dengan pendengar untuk tujuan mereka sendiri. Kebanyakan lagu-lagu pop dan mungkin banyak jenis lainnya tidak memiliki orang yang tepat, tempat atau referensi waktu.
    94. Selain itu, lagu-lagu yang santai. Mereka menyediakan berbagai dan menyenangkan, dan mendorong keharmonisan dalam diri sendiri dan dalam satu kelompok. Tak heran mereka adalah alat penting dalam mempertahankan budaya, agama, patriotisme dan yeas, bahkan revolusi.
    95. Last but not least, ada banyak kegiatan pembelajaran yang dapat kita lakukan dengan lagu-lagu seperti mempelajari tata bahasa, berlatih mendengarkan pemahaman selektif, menerjemahkan lagu, belajar kosa kata, ejaan dan budaya.
    96. Dari uraian di atas, dapat disimpulkan bahwa belajar melalui musik dan lagu, belajar bahasa Inggris dapat menjadi menyenangkan dan menyenangkan

  139. Why you should eat breakfast
    98. A lot of people, especially young people, go through the day without having breakfast. Many people believe that it is not necessary, or they say that they don’t have time for that, and begin their day with no meal. I believe that everyone should eat breakfast before going to their activities. The purpose of this paper is to show the importance of breakfast, especially for students.
    99. The first reason why you should eat breakfast before going to school is for your health. When you skip breakfast and go to school, you are looking for a disease because it’s not healthy to have an empty stomach all day long. It’s very important to have a meal and not let your stomach work empty. All you are going to get is gastritis and a lot of problems with your health if you don’t eat breakfast.
    100. Another reason for eating breakfast is because you need food for to do well in your classes. You body and your brain are not going to function as good as they could because you have no energy and no strength. When you try to learn something and have nothing in your stomach, you are going to have a lot of trouble succeeding. A lot of people think that they should not eat because they are going to feel tired, but that’s not true. Breakfast is not a very big meal, and on the contrary, you’re going to feel tired if you don’t have breakfast
    101. The last reason to have breakfast every day is because you can avoid diseases if you eat some breakfast in the morning. If you don’t eat, you are going to get sick, and these diseases will have a stronger effect on you because you’re going to get sick easier than people who have breakfast every day.
    102. You have to realize that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and you cannot skip it without consequences for your health, your school and your defense mechanism. It is better to wake up earlier and have a good breakfast that run to school without eating anything. It is time for you to do something for your health, and eating breakfast is the better

  140. Why You Should Not Smoke
    110. I am sure that you know that smoking harms your body. Then why do you continue smoking? Maybe you do it because you haven’t really become conscious about all the effects that smoking has. There are a lot of reasons why you shouldn’t smoke. Some of them are that smoking affects your health, that you spend a lot of money on cigarettes, and that when you smoke you are not respecting people around you.
    111. The first reason why you shouldn’t smoke is that smoking affects your health. If you smoke, your physical condition will be negatively affected, so it will be very difficult for you to succeed in sports. Also, smoking produces lethal diseases like cancer and reduces the length and quality of your life. Maybe you don’t notice all the physical effects of smoking immediately, but you surely will be sorry one day.
    112. The second reason why you shouldn’t smoke is because of all the money that you spend on it. Maybe you start smoking only when someone offers you a cigarette, but there will be a day when you will feel the need of a cigarette. By this time, you will pay whatever to smoke, and each time you will smoke more, so you will spend more money. All the money you would spend on cigars could have be spent in something better, don’t you think?
    113. The last reason why you shouldn’t smoke is out of respect for the people around you. When you smoke, you not only harm yourself, but you also harm all the people around you. So you mustn’t be selfish; you should at least avoid smoking in front of people who don’t smoke. Also, many people don’t like the cigarette’s smell, so they won’t enjoy your company. Would you like that?
    114. I have said just some reasons of why you shouldn’t smoke, so I hope that now those of you who smoke are able to think a little and try to make a smart decision. In addition to all the reasons I’ve said, I would like you to think about how much you love yourself and then whether you want to continue harming yourself. Think also about all the people who love you, like your family who doesn’t want to see you suffering or sick. If you decide to continue smoking, what a pity. But if you decide to stop smoking, congratulations! Remember that "If you can dream it, you can do it.

  141. Why People Should Exercise
    122. In the past, I have never been inclined to participate in sports. Honestly, I didn’t like it, but many persons whom I lived with kept telling me everyday how good it was. Since the peer pressure was growing, I decided to go to the gym. It wasn’t until then that I could really understand people when they said exercise really helped a person get organized and keep yourself in a healthy physically and mentally.
    123. For starters, when you are a lazy person, it is difficult to take the first step, but it is all a matter of committing yourself to something that will provide you a lot of positive feedback. Once you start doing exercise and observing positive results, you actually enjoy it. It takes a lot of effort and strong will, but it's worth it. The principal thing to do is to participate in an activity you like. If you do you’ll start organizing your day in a way that enables you to do everything you have to, including exercising. You will no longer be a person stressed-out without time to carry on with all your activities.
    124. Second, it is obvious that once you exercise you will have a better condition. You will be healthier in a physical way. It is probable that you will lose weight and your muscles will get stronger and stronger. Your body will feel good, full of energy and it will respond immediately to any action you want to do, any activity that has to be done with high spirits.
    125. The third reason why exercising is good is that it affects you positively in a mental and psychological way. Doing exercise helps you set specific goals which along with strong will can be achieved. When you do that, you are aware of your abilities, accept your weaknesses, and your self-esteem goes up. Any sport distracts you because it helps you not to think about school, friends, problems, among other things. It brings you time to think about yourself and no one else. It helps you keep your mind busy and to avoid dangerous habits like drugs.
    126.
    127. Doing exercise is very important to any person of any age. The positive effects of exercising, which I’ve already mentioned, are like a chain. Once you do a sports activity that you like, you get organized; therefore, you start doing things the right way and get enormous benefits which make you feel good as a whole human being. You start living your life happily.

  142. How To Use The Internet Should Be Required
    136. In this age of technology all students in the Montana University System should be required to learn Internet use, and there should be a course to teach it as a core requirement.
    The first reason is going to school in the twenty-first century almost all classes require some computer use. Every time you go to the library at M.S.U.C.O.T, you need to know how to go online as there are very few books anymore, and almost everything is on the Web.
    137. Following that when you go to find a job, more and more companies are using computers. It’s getting almost impossible to find a job that dosen’t require computer skills of some sort. One of the big things is communications within the company. Most companies use electronic communications of some sort, such as e-mail or memos on line.
    138. Even the jobs people used to think of as unskilled labors such as a mechanic are using computers. All cars built today have a computer built into them. The mechanic uses it to figure out what’s wrong with your car, then a lot of time they go online to find out the beat way to fix it faster, saving time and money.
    139. Some people might say that the courses that need to have computer skills have them built into them, but I say we should get a jump on the future and have all students learn the internet. If people don’t learn it, they will fall behind in the job market and in life.
    140. 11. Mengetahui Cara Menggunakan Internet Itu Keharusan
    141. Pada era teknologi saat ini, semua mahasiswa di Universitas Montana diminta untuk belajar menggunakan Internet, dan harus ada mata kulia tentang cara menggunakan Internet sebagi mata kuliah wajib. Alasan pertama adalah bahwa kuliah pada abad kedua puluh satu ini menharuskan punya pengetahuan pemanfaatan kompueter pada hampir semua kelas yang diberikan. Setiap kali kalian pergi ke perpustakaan, kalian seharusnya mengetahui bagaimana untuk belajr secara online karena hanya sangat sedikit saja buku yang tersedia secara fisik, dan hampir semuanya ada dalam bentuk Website.
    142. Kemudian ketika kalia mau mencari pekerjaan, semakin banyak perusahaan yang menggunakan komputer. Hampir mustahil mendapatkan jenis pekerjaan yang tidak mensyaratkan keterampilan komputer. Salah satunya adalahurusan komunikasi. Sebagian besar perusahaan menggunakan komunikasi elektronik dengan berbagai macam bentuknya, seperti e-mail atau memo Online.
    Bahkan jenis-jenis pekerjaan yang dulunya dikelompokkan sebagai “unskilled labour”, tenaga kerja tidak berktrampilan tingkat tinggi seperti perbengkelan saat ini justru harus menggunakan komputer. Semua mobil yang diproduksi hari ini justru memasukkan komponen koputer didalamnya. Para montir menggunakan komputer itu untuk mencari tahu apa yang salah dengan mobil tersebut. Para montir tersebut bergelut dengan media Online untuk mencari tahu cara memperbaikinya engan lebih cepat, sehingga bisa menghemat waktu dan uang.
    143. Beberapa orang mungkin berpikir bahawa kemampuan menggunakan komputer itu sudah melekat pada semua mata kuliah yang telah diberikan selama ini, tapi saya harus katakan bahwa kita harus melakukan lompatan ke masa depan dan mengharuskan semua maha siswa belajar internet. Jika orang tidak belajar Internet, mereka akan tertinggal dibelakang dalam dunia kerja dan kehidupan.

  145. Ozone Destruction Because of Global Warming
    171. Currently we are facing a big problem that can threaten human existence. The problem is global warming. Global warming is the rising of earth’s temperature average abnormally. This phenomenon will lead to the depletion of ozone’s layer in earth’s atmosphere. The ozone’s layer which is supposed to protect us from sun’s ray now starts to perforate so that the sun’s rays directly will light us. This will endanger life of all creatures on earth. The destruction of ozone layer in atmospheres can be caused by our activities that we unknowingly harm us. What’s cause ozone destruction? The following are factors that can damage ozone:
    172. The first is the use of a motor vehicle which is too much. The development in the field of transportation turned out to be one of the factors causing ozone destruction. We are very addicted on motor vehicle now. We don’t realize that the use of motor vehicle will produce combustion gases such as CO and CO2. These gases will be collected and settle in atmospheres so that it scrapes ozone’s layer gradually. The more motor vehicle used the more CO and CO2 gas will be produced. Consequently, the destruction of ozone will be happened sooner.
    173. The second is illegal logging. This irresponsible act is done by greedy and irresponsible human being. They continue to cut trees on their behalf without knowing the importance of trees for this earth. Though tree can convert gases CO2 into O2 which are very important for us. Without trees gases CO and CO2 will be increase more and more. Of course this will fasten ozone destruction.
    174. The third is the development of the industry. The rapid industry development also accelerates the damage of ozone layer. Many factories were established, especially in big cities produce fumes which are very dangerous. Similar to motor vehicle’s fumes, factory’s smoke will also produce gases CO and CO2.
    175. The fourth is the use of fossil fuels. Today, Human prefers use fossil fuels such as kerosene, gasoline, diesel and others. Fossil fuels are used in all aspects of human life such as household, office and industry. They do not consider that every use of fossil fuels will produce harmful gases for the ozone layer.
    176. The last is the Use of CFCs (Chloro Fluro Carbon). CFC gases are gases which are generated from the use of spray cans (Aerosol) as perfume, Refrigerator, Air Conditioner and solvent substances. CFC gases that accumulate in the atmosphere will decompose when exposed to ultraviolet light and turn into chlorine atoms which are substances ozone destroyer.
    177. Based on the discussion above, we can conclude that the destruction of ozone’s layer is as the result of our own actions. Therefore let us stop ruining ozone and keep our protective layer by reducing the use of motor vehicles, looking for alternative sources of energy that are friendly for environmental, reducing the use of tools that produce CFCs and doing reforestation. With the preservation of the ozone layer, we will be safe from the sun’s ray which is very dangerous.

  146. Let’s Make City Clean and Fresh
    181. A clean and fresh city will surely make the inhabitantshealthy. Every morningespecially in dry season, all roads must be watered with clean water and swept by the workers of the regionalgovernment under the Major’s instruction.
    182. To keep the people from heavy pollution caused by cars, trucks andmotorcycles, enough trees must be planted along all roads. Every building or house in the city must be surrounded short and small trees which bear colorful flower.
    183. Bad and improper habits which cause disadvantages, bad smell and dangerous diseases to people such as smoking and throwing rubbish anywhere should be stopped at once.
    The major of each city will have to think over the way how to educate people, so that they realize on how important cleanliness and health are for their own sake. Building more public lavatories at every busy place is very badly needed.
    184. It will be wise if the Major decides a certain amount of fine to be paid by those who disobey the government regulation on cleanliness matter. A man who urinate not at lavatory, smoke not at smoking room or throw rubbish at the roads should be fined for instance. Besides dirtying the environment with cigarettes’ butts, smoking will also cause pollution and lungs disease to other people.
    185. So bad habits and impolite attitude should be immediately stopped, otherwise the city will be dirty, unhealthy badly polluted and will never attract foreign or domestic tourist.
    186. 15. Mari Membuat Kota Bersih dan Segar
    187. Sebuah kota yang bersih dan segar pasti akan membuat inhabitantshealthy tersebut. Setiap morningespecially di musim kemarau, semua jalan harus disiram dengan air bersih dan tersapu oleh pekerja dari regionalgovernment bawah instruksi Mayor.
    188. Untuk menjaga orang-orang dari polusi berat yang disebabkan oleh mobil, truk andmotorcycles, cukup pohon harus ditanam di sepanjang semua jalan. Setiap bangunan atau rumah di kota harus dikelilingi pohon-pohon pendek dan kecil yang menanggung bunga berwarna-warni.
    189. Kebiasaan buruk dan tidak tepat yang menyebabkan kerugian, bau dan penyakit berbahaya untuk orang seperti merokok dan membuang sampah di mana saja harus dihentikan sekaligus.
    190. Utama dari masing-masing kota harus memikirkan cara bagaimana untuk mendidik masyarakat, sehingga mereka menyadari tentang betapa pentingnya kebersihan dan kesehatan untuk kepentingan mereka sendiri. Membangun toilet lebih umum di setiap tempat yang sibuk sangat sangat dibutuhkan.
    191. Ini akan menjadi bijaksana jika Mayor memutuskan sejumlah denda yang harus dibayar oleh mereka yang tidak mematuhi peraturan pemerintah tentang masalah kebersihan. Seorang pria yang buang air kecil tidak di WC, merokok tidak di ruang merokok atau membuang sampah di jalan-jalan harus didenda misalnya. Selain mengotori lingkungan dengan puntung rokok ', merokok juga akan menyebabkan polusi dan paru-paru penyakit kepada orang lain.
    192. Kebiasaan begitu buruk dan sikap sopan harus segera dihentikan, jika tidak kota akan menjadi kotor, tidak sehat buruk tercemar dan tidak akan pernah menarik wisatawan asing atau domestik.

    Suddenly, they saw a large bear getting closer toward them. One of them climbed a nearby tree at once. But unfortunately the other one did not know how to climb up the tree. So being led by his common sense, he lay down on the ground breathless and pretended to be a dead man.

    The bear came near the one who was lying on the ground. It smelt in his ears, and slowly left the place because the bears do not want to touch the dead creatures. After that, the friend on the tree came down and asked his friend that was on the ground, "Friend, what did the bear whisper into your ears?" The other friend replied, "Just now the bear advised me not to believe a false friend."

    One hot day, an ant was seeking for some water. After walking around for a moment, she came to a spring. To reach the spring, she had to climb up a blade of grass. While making her way up, she slipped and fell unintentionally into the water.

    She could have sunk if a dove up a nearby tree had not seen her. Seeing that the ant was in trouble, the dove quickly put off a leaf from a tree and dropped it immediately into the water near the struggling ant. Then the ant moved towards the leaf and climbed up there. Soon it carried her safely to dry ground.

    Tak lama kemudian, akhirnya datanglah seekor kerbau ke danau itu untuk minum.

    Kancil yang pada saat itu sedang berjalan menuju danau mendengar suara kerbau. Kancil berlari secepatnya untuk melihat apa yang telah dialami oleh kerbau.
    Sesampainya di dekat danau, kancil melihat kerbau dan buaya.
    Lalu kancil bertanya, “Ada apa ini?”
    Dan kerbau menjawab, “buaya ini menggigit kakiku setelah aku menolongnya menyingkirkan dahan pohon yang menjatuhi lehernya.”
    Buaya itu berkata, “Aku lapar dan kamu berada di wilayahku, maka aku menggigitmu kerbau yang malang.”
    Buaya itu menertawakan kerbau.
    Kancil berkata kepada kerbau, “Tak mungkin kamu membantu buaya, maka buaya punya hak untuk menggigitmu.”
    Kerbau itu berkata, “Aku tidak berbohong. Aku bisa membuktikannya.”
    Kancil berkata, “Aku percaya buaya benar, namun kamu boleh saja mencoba membuktikan omonganmu. Tapi sebelumnya, buaya harus melepaskan gigitanmu, oke?”
    Buaya berkata, “Oke, itu gampang, tapi setelah itu aku akan memakan kerbau.”
    Kancil berkata, “Oke, sepakat.”
    Resolusi
    Kerbau menaruh dahan besar itu pada posisi semula, di atas leher buaya.
    Setelah itu tiba-tiba kancil berkata, “Lari kerbau, ayo cepat lari!”
    Kerbau dan kancil lari secepat mungkin dan buaya baru sadar kalau ia baru saja dibodohi oleh kancil.
    Buaya itu tetap terjebak di sana dan tak ada yang mau menolongnya.

    Origin of the Snail House
    In ancient times, the snails did not bring their home anywhere. In the beginning, snails lived in an abandoned bird’s nest in the trees. The night was warm and the day was cool because the leaves shaded the nest where the snails lived. But when the rains came, the leaves could no longer block the rain that fell. Snails caught cold and wet when the rainy season arrived.
    Then the snails moved into the holes in the trunks of trees. When the day was hot, the snails were well protected, even if it rained. It looked like that I had found a suitable home for me, the snail said in his heart.
    But on a sunny day, there came a woodpecker. Tok..tok … tok … woodpecker kept pecking the trunks where the snails lived. Snails became very distracted and could not sleep.

    Asal Mula Rumah Siput
    Pada zaman dahulu, siput tidak membawa rumahnya kemana-mana. Awalnya siput tinggal di sarang burung yang sudah ditinggalkan induk burung di atas pohon. Malam terasa hangat dan siang terasa sejuk karena daun-daun menaungi sarang tempat siput tinggal. Tetapi ketika musim hujan datang, daun-daun itu tidak bisa lagi menghalangi air hujan yang jatuh. Siput menjadi basah dan kedinginan saat musim hujan tiba.
    Kemudian siput pindah ke dalam lubang yang ada di batang-batang pohon. Jika hari panas, siput terlindung dengan baik, bahkan jika hujan turun. Sepertinya aku menemukan rumah yang cocok untukku, kata si siput dalam hati.
    Tetapi pada suatu hari yang cerah, datanglah burung pelatuk. Tok..tok…tok…burung pelatuk terus mematuk batang pohon tempat siput tinggal. Siput menjadi terganggu dan tidak bisa tidur. Dengan hati jengkel, siput keluar dari lubang yang ada di batang pohon tersebut dan mencari tempat tinggal selanjutnya. Siput menemukan sebuah lubang di tanah, yang nampaknya hangat jika malam datang, pikir siput. Siput membersihkan lubang tersebut dan memutuskan untuk tinggal di dalamnya. Tetapi ternyata ketika malam datang, tikus-tikus datang dari segala arah merusak rumah siput. Lagi dan lagi, siput harus pergi meninggalkan lubang itu untuk mencari rumah baru.
    Siput kemudian berjalan terus sampai di tepi pantai yang penuh dengan batu karang. Ia berfikir sela-sela batu karang mungkin dapat menjadi rumahnya. Siput pun dapat beristirahat dengan tenang di tempat tersebut. Tetapi ketika air laut pasang dan naik sampai ke atas batu karang, siput ikut tersapu bersama dengan derasnya ombak tersebut. Seperti biasa, siput harus kembali pergi mencari rumah baru. Ketika ia sedang berjalan meninggalkan pantai, si siput menemukan sebuah cangkang kosong, bentuknya cantik dan sangat ringan. Karena lelah dan kedinginan, siput masuk ke dalam cangkang tersebut. Siput merasa hangat dan nyaman lalu tertidur di dalamnya.
    Ketika pagi tiba, siput menyadari telah menemukan rumah terbaik untuknya. Ia tidak perlu lagi cepat-cepat pulang jika hujan turun. Ia juga tidak akan kepanasan lagi, dan tidak ada yang akan mengganggunya. Ia kemudian membawa rumah ini bersamanya kemanapun ia pergi.
