Contoh 1 :
Recycling is a collection,
processing, and reuse of materials that would otherwise be thrown away.
Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass, from old newspapers to
plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims the original
material and uses it in new products.
In general, using recycled
materials to make new products costs less and requires less energy than using
new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution, either by reducing the demand
for high-pollution alternatives or by minimizing the amount of pollution
produced during the manufacturing process.
Paper products that can be
recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping paper, and office paper. The
most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In newspaper recycling, old
newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants such as plastic bags and
aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it is mixed with hot
water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big kitchen
blender. The pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The
pulp then goes to a large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and
fl oats to the surface. The ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or
burned as boiler fuel. The cleaned pulp is mixed with new wood fibers to be
made into paper again.
Experts estimate the
average office worker generates about 5 kg of wastepaper per month. Every ton
of paper that is recycled saves about 1.4 cu m (about 50 cu ft) of landfill
space. One ton of recycled paper saves 17 pulpwood trees (trees used to produce
paper).
Contoh 2 :
Have you ever wondered how people get chocolate from?
In this article we'll enter the amazing world of chocolate so you can
understand exactly what you're eating.
Chocolate starts with a tree called the cacao tree.
This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South
America, Africa, and Indonesia.
The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pine apple. Inside
the fruit are the tree's seeds, also known as cocoa beans.
The beans are fermented for about a week, dried in
the sun and then shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate maker starts by
roasting the beans to bring out the flavour. Different beans from different
places have different qualities and flavor, so they are often sorted and
blanded to produce a distinctive mix. Next, the roasted beans are winnowed.
Winnowing removes the meat nib of the cacao bean from its shell. Then, the nibs
are blended. The blended nibs are ground to make it a liquid. The liquid is
called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.
All seeds contain some amount of fat, and cacao beans are not different.
However, cacao beans are half fat, which is why the ground nibs form liquid.
It's pure bitter chocolate.

Human body is
made up of countless millions of cells.
Food is needed to build up new cells and replace the worn out cells. However,
the food that we take must be changed
into substances that can be carried
in the blood to the places where they are needed. This process is called
digestion.
The first digestive
process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into
small pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted
by glands in the mouth. Saliva contain digestive juices which moisten the food, so it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth,
food passes through the esophagus
(the food passage) into stomach. Here, the food is mixed with juices secreted
by the cells in stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the
onwards.
In a few hours,
the food changes into acids. These
are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projections
from the intestine walls) and passed into the bloodstream.
Contoh 4 :
The market is called a floating market because the trade takes place on boats - in Indonesia they
are called klotok and jukung. This market has existed for over 400
years. In the past, people from inland areas brought their agricultural produce
or handicrafts to sell. They bartered
with people from the coastal areas.
Nowadays people can buy things such as fruit, vegetables, traditional cakes and
even clothes from this 'pasar terapung'. Another unique feature
of these markets is the time of trading; it begins around 5 a.m. and finishes
at 9 a.m.
Contoh 5 :
A planet is a body in space that revolves around a
star. There are nine planets in our solar system, and these nine planets travel
around the sun. The names of the planets are Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto.
Planets travel in orbit, around the stars. All of the
planets of the solar system revolve ill elliptical orbits. In other Words,
their orbits are like large, flat circles. The time that it takes a planet to
make one revolution around the sun is called a year.
The Greeks were the first people to recognize and
give names to some of the planets. The word planet comes from a Greek
word meaning wanderer. If a person wanders, tills means that he goes from
one place to another and does not have a home. The Greeks thought that planets
"wandered" in the sky. However, modern scientists can predict the
movement of the planets very accurately.
Contoh 6 :
A magazine is a periodical containing a variety of
articles and general illustration of an entertaining or an instructive nature.
Magazines are designed to be of interest either to the general public or groups
of people with specialized subject matters. The essential difference between
the magazine and the newspaper is a physical one: the magazine is smaller in
size and often bound in pamphlet form.
Magazine production involves teamwork. This means
that many people have to work together to produce the magazine you have in your
hand. But one key person is the magazine editor. If some one has a manuscript
he wants to publish, he will send or submit it to the editor of the magazine he
likes. The magazine editor, usually the editor-in-chief, will read it and make
recommendation so that the manuscript can be
published.
Another task of a magazine editor is to consider
whether the article will be part of series. Will it have photographs or
illustration? will it be in full color, two or three colors, or black and
white? Once the decision
is made, the work of an illustrator or photographer
begins. Preparing manuscripts for the magazine is hard work to do. After
everything is all right, they are sent to the typesetters. When the galleys (or
typeset text) come back, they must be carefully read. This is the job of a
proofreader to find out whether or not there are mistakes in typesetting.
Corrections are made if there are mistakes.
Contoh 7 :
In their famous Indonesian – English
dictionary, Prof. Woyowasito and the late Mr. Purwodarminto translated the word
‘arisan‘ as a saving club, while Prof. Dr. Bowman, a Dutch sociologist, defined
it as “ROSCA”, the abbreviation of Rotating Saving Credit Association.
Arisan plays an important role in Indonesian society.
We can save our money and someday we can withdraw our saving. Or we can get a
certain sum of money as a loan, and repay it in installments, without any
interest. We may say that we can get credit without difficulty and formal
procedures. The money intended for arisan is commonly regarded as a savings.
The purpose of arisan is to strengthen the bonds
among participants. It shows the spirit of mutual assistance. Every member has
the same chance to win the lucky number. He or she then will subsequently be
the host or hostess for the next meeting.
Arisan is not only found among Indonesians. I believe
that it is also popular in many other parts of the world. Of course it has
different name. The number of arisan members is not limited.

Do you know the moon? At night you can see it shinning
brightly in the sky. The moon is one of then objects in space. Because people
are curious about many things, they study space and the things in it. The
science that studies these things is called astronomy. Astronomy deals with
objects such as the sun, moon, planets and even stars and other objects outside
the solar system.

Adoption is a process by which people take a child
who was not born to them and raise him or her as a member of their family. By
law, adopted children differ from foster children. An adopted child has all the
legal rights of a member of the family that raise him or her. A foster child
does not.
Parents
place their children up for adoptions for many reasons. Some parents feel they
can not adequately care for their off springs because of health or economic
conditions. Some others, especially unwed parent, may not want to raise a
child.
But
there are couples who can not have their children of their own. Adoption gives
them opportunity to raise a family. They can get one from an adoption agency if
they have all the requirements asked.
State
laws prohibit adoption agencies from revealing the identity of the natural
parents to the adoptive parents. These laws also forbid agencies from
disclosing the identity of the adoptive parents to the natural parents. In some
states, the law permit adopted persons who are at least 18 years old to see their birth
certificates including the natural parents’ names.
On
the contrary, many adopted people worked to change the laws. They argue that
people have a right to know their identity. They said that keeping secret their
adoptions records violate their right. On the other hand, many people feel
adoption records should be kept secret. If not, natural parents might change
their minds years later and take the child away from the parents who raised him
or her.
Some
experts advise that a child should know of the adoptions by the age of 6 or 7.
Surveys have shown that most adopted children developed normally.

Very Fast Trains
A very fast train is an electrified train that runs
on a dedicated line. A very fast train has an average speed of more than 250
km/h. It offers an obvious alternative to cars on crowded motorways and to air
travel on crowded air routes.
Very fast trains have been around for a long while.
In Japan,
the first very fast train, the so-called bullet train, first ran in 1964. Its
route, the Tokaido line, was from Tokyo to Osaka, a distance of 515
km. It achieved speeds of up to 300 km/h. The other national super train, the
TGV (Train a’Grande Vitesse: meaning high-speed train), ran in France for the first time in 1983, on Paris to Lyon route.
Super trains are generally expected to run at an average speed 270km/h. Spain’s super
train, the Ave, has reached a top speed of 500km/h. No wonder very fast trains
have spread throughout Europe, and the bullet train system has been extended in
Japan.
How are very fast trains able to attain such high
speed? First of all, they have an efficient supply of energy through overhead
electric lines. They have aerodynamic design to limit wind resistance at high
speeds. Curves and climbs have been kept to a minimum. They also travel on
lines especially built for their high speeds – there are no slower, more
conventional trains on super train lines.
Very fast trains are smooth-running and quiet. They
have few delays. For examples, the average time for TGV trains to remain at
stations is just a few minutes.
That is, enough time to permit passengers to alight from
and board the train. Planes travel at much faster speed than super trains, yet
passengers spend a lot of time getting to airports, boarding the plane, and
then leaving the airport and traveling to their local destination at the other
end. On some routes in Europe it is faster to
travel by super train than by plane.
There are no super trains in Australia
because of our vast distances and very small population. Elsewhere in the
world, super trains travel between centers of great population. However, Queensland does have a
tilt train, the next step down from the super trains. It achieves high speeds
because it tilts as it comes into curves. As a result, the train does not have
to slow down so much. However, it does not travel on a specially constructed
line.

Facsimile
A facsimile or fax machine resembles a small
photocopier. It is a device capable of transmitting or receiving an exact copy
of a page of printed or pictorial matter over telephone lines, in usually, less
than 60 seconds.
To send a document, the user inserts it into the
machine and dials the telephone number of the receiving fax machine. After the
connection is made, an electronic scanner on the transmitting machine moves
across the page and converts the image into a set of electronic signals. These
signals travel over the telephone lines to the receiving fax machine. That
machine converts the electronic signals back into an image of the original
document and then prints a copy.
Most of contemporary fax machines conform to a set of
standards, known as Group III, that were implemented in 1980, and that requires
digital image scanning and data compression. Machine built to conform to Group
III standard transmit the data at a maximum 9,600 bits per second (bps).
News services often use facsimile to send news
stories and photographs to newspapers and television station. Banks, laws firms
and other businesses use facsimile to send copies of documents to clients and
other organizations.
Nowadays, fax machine can be used to receive a copy
of a page sent through email and the machine can even send it to e-mail. Latest
science inventions cover real bigger photocopiers that can produce copies of
documents directly sent to e-mail and, of course, to the fax machine in another
part of the world. Facsimile has truly gone through great changes of role as
just as simple photocopiers.
