REPORT TEXT

Report text adalah sebuah teks yang menghadirkan informasi tentang suatu hal
secara apa adanya.

Genre atau jenis text ini memang ada kesamaan dengan descriptive text yaitu, baik
descriptive text dan report text sama sama memberikan gambaran secara langsung tentang
seseorang atau suatu benda.

Perbedaannya adalah jika kita berbicara tentang benda atau seseorang secara spesifik
seperti warna, style, nama, dsb, itu disebut descriptive.
Dan apabila kita berbicara tentang benda atau seseorang secara umum yang meliputi
bagian-bagiannya, kekuatannya, fungsinya, atau sifat umum lain dari benda atau seseorang
seseorang itu disebut report.

1.Definition of Report text

“Report is a text which presents information about something, as it is. It is as a result of
systematic observation and analyses.”
(Report adalah sebuah teks yang menghadirkan informasi tentang suatu hal secara apa
adanya. Teks ini adalah sebagai hasil dari observasi dan analisa secara sistematis.)

2. Struktur Umum/ Generic Structure
 General Clasification ; Stating classificationof general aspect of thing; animal, public

place, plant, etc which will be discussed in general (Menyatakan klasifikasi aspek umum
hal; hewan, tempat umum, tanaman, dll yang akan dibahas secara umum).
 Description : tells what the phenomenon under discussion in terms of parts, qualities,
habits or behaviors. (Pada bagian ini biasanya memberikan gambaran fenomena-
fenomena yang terjadi; baik bagian-bagiannya, sifat-sifatnya, kebiasaannya, ataupun
tingkah lakunya. Intinya adalah penjabaran dari klasifikasi yang disajikan dengan

3.Purpose of Report Text.

Setiap tulisan pasti memiliki tujuan mengapa tulisan itu ditulis. Begitu juga dengan report
text. Beberapa pakar menyebutkan bahwa tujuan teks report adalah :

Its sicial purpose is presenting information about something.They generally describe an
entire class of things,whether natural or made : mammals,the planets,rocks,plants,countries
of region,culture,transportation and so on

Jika disimpulkan, tujuan report text adalah untuk menyampaikan informasi hasil
pengamatan dan analisa yang sistematis. Informasi yang dijelaskan dalam report text
biasanya bersifat umum, baik itu alamiah ataupun buata seperti binatang mamalia, planet,
bebatuan, tumbuh-tumbuhan, negara bagian, budaya, transportasi, dan lain sebagainya.

Pigeon
Pigeon refers to all birds of the family Columbidae and order Columbiformes. They

consist of 310 species. Some people may also know them as "Doves". There is no clear
distinction between the use of the word "pigeons" and "doves" until today. But generally, the
word "Pigeons" is used to address the species known as the Rock Dove, while the word
"Doves" is used to address a pigeon that is white

Pigeons exhibit various size and color based on their species. The smallest species
may have the size of 15 cm and weight 30 g, while the largest species can grow up to 75
cm with the body weight of 2 kg. Some of their color are: pale gray, white, brown, reddish

and black. Most of them have two black bars on their wings. They have a small head with
short beak. Their body is compact with two large and muscular wings and two short legs on
it.

Pigeons can be found almost in any region in the world. They have been domesticated
since 10.000 years ago. they have been used by humans for several purposes such as
courier to deliver short written messages, sacred symbols in a wedding ceremony,
entertainment in a magic show and also as a racing birds. Some species are also edible
and they are served as food in some places.

PANDA

Panda or also known as “Giant Panda” or “Panda Bear” is a species of bear originating from
central China. The thing that can be most distinguished from them is the black and white
pattern on their bodies and also the black fur that surrounds their eyes. They eat bamboo as
their main food, but sometimes they also eat other grasses, wild tubers, birds, rodents,
honey, eggs, fish, and oranges and bananas.

Panda has two legs and two hands. Although they can stand on two legs, they are often like
other types of bears that walk on their hands and feet. They have five fingers and one
thumb on his hand. This thumb is a modified bone that helps them to hold bamboo while
eating. The fur around his stomach is white while the hair around his chest, hands, feet and
ears are black.

An adult panda can reach a length of 1.2 to 1.9 m from nose to tail. The tail is about 10 to
15 cm in size. The height of an adult panda can reach 60 to 90 cm and its body weight can
reach 160 kg. They can live up to 20 years in the wild and around 30 years in captivity. They
are solitary animals that have clear areas. They communicate with each other by making
sounds and by smell marking.

Vision is the most fundamental of human senses. The human eye ia a very complex and
truly amazing organ.

It approximately one inch wide and deep, and 0,9 inches high. Human eyes allow us to
appreciate all the beauty of the world we live in, to read and gain knowledge,and to
communicate our thoughts and desires to each other through visual expressions and
arts.The front of the eye includes : Iris ( the pigmented part),cornea ( a clear dome over the
Iris),pupil ( the black circular opening in the iris,which lets light in),sclera ( the white part)
and conjunctiva ( an insible,clear layer of tissue coverring the front of the eye,except the
cornea )

Just behind the Iris and pupil lies the lens,which helps focus light on the back of the eye.
Most of the eye is filled with a clear gel, called the vitreous.Light projects throughthe pupil
and the lens to the back of the eye. The inside lining of the eye is covered by special light-
sensing cells,together called the retina.The retina converts light into electrical
impulses.Behind the eye,the optic nerve carries these impilses to the brain.The macula is a
small sensitive area with the retina that gives central vision. It is located in the centr of the
retina and contains the fovea.Eye color is created by the amount and the type of pigment in
the iris.Multiple genes inherited from each parent determine a person’s eye color.

Perbedaan Report Text dan Descriptive Text dalam Bahasa Inggris

Teks report dan descriptive memiliki struktur yang mirip. Keduanya sama-sama
memberikan penjelasan yang rinci tentang sesuatu. Sering kali kita kesulitan untuk
membedakan teks repot dan teks deskripsi. Teks report menggambarkan sesuatu secara
umum, bukan objek khusus.
Ketika menjelaskan binatang kucing pada umumnya, maka tulisan tersebut termasuk teks
laporan. Jika berbicara dan menggambarkan kucing yang menjadi binatang peliharaan
kesayangan, maka tulisan itu termasuk teks deskripsi. Perbedaan report dan descriptive
dalam bahasa Inggris lainnya, yaitu:
1. Report: Objek yang dilaporkan bersifat umum

Descriptive: Objek yang dijelaskan bersifat spesifik
2. Report: Objektif dan sesuai fakta

Descriptive: Subjektif (terdapat opini dari penulis)
3. Report: Disertai bukti ilmiah (contoh, grafik, hasil penelitian)

Descriptive: Disertai pendapat pribadi
4. Report: Menggunakan bahasa teknis atau istilah-istilah khusus bidang studi tertentu

Descriptive: Menggunakan bahasa sehari-hari yang mudah dipahami semua orang
5. Report: Tulisan bersifat ilmiah dengan adanya penelitian khusus

Descriptive: Tulisan hanya sebatas pengamatan dan pendapat penulis saja

Contoh Descriptive text :

The House is located in front of my house Rico. Home of Rico has a spacious
courtyard, in his home town there’s a Cola with a fountain. There are many fish in
the kolamnya. Beside the pond there is a tree as high as 2 meters. The tree
was very lush and suitable place to rest. Home page of rico is also surrounded by a wooden
fence shaped rectangle with the distance between the fence was 30 cm. Color her
House very contrasting with the color of his home town. His house is
yellow and green courtyard.

be a human habitation as well as animals, but for the term of residence that is specific to the

animal is caged, nest, or enclosure. In a specific sense, the House refers to the concepts of
