 CONTOH TEXT

        Smoking is a bad habit that is very hard to break. Smokers are everywhere. Many people smoke just to socialize, but many others are too addicted to quit.

       A Cigarette is like a toxin hypermarket. You can find many kinds of toxin in it : acetone, carbon monoxide, tar, arsenic, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, and toluene. The tar (getah tembakau) itself contains  more than 43 substances (Zat)  that can cause cancer. Scientists say that when we are smoking, we put more than 4,000 kinds of toxic materials into our body.

        However, many smokers believe that a cigarette with a low tar is less dangerous. And so it is a filtered cigarette. But the problem is one cigarette is never enough for the addicted smokers.

       Another myth about smoking is that it cannot only make them awake but also raise their inspiration. This is contrary to the findings of a research in California which show that smoker’s ability to think is lower than that of non-smokers.

       Smoking is indeed  a serious social problem in our country. The government keeps reminding that smoking is dangerous, not only for the smokers themselves, but also for other people in the surroundings. But the warnings do not seem to get any response (tanggapan).

      Comics encourage/ support ( mendorong) children to read. We find that comics are not bad at all. Instead, it is positively influencing (mempengaruhi)  the reading habits.

       There is no evidence (bukti) of the common (umum)  prejudice (prasangka) against comics.  It is quite (cukup) normal for children to look at comics when they are still too young to read.  The combination of image (gambar) and short texts in a comic is ideal for children learning to read and does not deter (menghalangi) them from reading at a later stage (tahap).

Comics are now passed (terlewati) on from generation to generation and we have not seen (melihat)  any sign (tanda)  that the text is becoming (menjadi) more hollow (kosong).

There is no best way to deal with pests in agriculture . Pesticides which are commonly used (digunakan)  may cause many problems. I think combining different management operations is the most effective way to control pests .

Firstly, the chemicals in the pesticides may build up (membentuk) as residues (sisa)  in the environment  and in the soil  which absorbs the chemicals. This reduces (mengurangi) the quality of farm product.

Secondly, pest can gradually become resistant to pesticides. This means that newer and stronger ones have to be developed.

Lastly, some pesticides affect non target plants and animals such as fish and bees. This affects the ecology and environment as well .

So, understanding the ecology of an area helps a lot in pest control. Pesticides should be chosen (dipilih) and applied (digunakan)  carefully so that they don’t affect the ecological balance  and environment.

Therefore, integrated  pest management is a safe and more effective option to fight pest in agriculture and livestock (peternakan).
