Contoh Descriptive Text Tentang Suatu Tempat (About Place)

The Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower is an iron lattice tower located on the Champ de Mars in Paris. Built in 1889,
it has become both a global icon of France and one of the most recognizable structures in the
world. The tower is the tallest building in Paris and the most-visited paid monument in the
world; millions of people ascend it every year. Named for its designer, engineer Gustave Eiffel,
the tower was built as the entrance arch to the 1889 World's Fair.
The tower stands 324 metres (1,063 ft) tall, about the same height as an 81-story building. Upon
its completion, it surpassed the Washington Monument to assume the title of tallest man-made
structure in the world, a title it held for 41 years, until the Chrysler Building in New York City
was built in 1930; however, due to the addition in 1957 of the antenna, the tower is now taller
than the Chrysler Building. Not including broadcast antennas, it is the second-tallest structure in
France after the 2004 Millau Viaduct.
The tower has three levels for visitors. Tickets can be purchased to ascend, by stairs or lift, to
the first and second levels. The walk to the first level is over 300 steps, as is the walk from the
first to the second level. The third and highest level is accessible only by elevator. Both the first
and second levels feature restaurants.
The tower has become the most prominent symbol of both Paris and France, often in the
establishing shot of films set in the city.

Holiday in Semirang Waterfall

ditulis oleh Windhariyati Dyah K

On Sunday, I and my best friend, Sari, visited Semirang Waterfall in Ungaran. It was
the first time for me to visit the waterfall.
When we arrived at the hill, I felt so fresh and I could enjoy the scene. The air was
so pure and all I could see only green and green.
In Ungaran, we took a little bit trekking to find Semirang Waterfall. It was too bad for
me because the distance to see the waterfall was too far.
After taking so far distance, we found Semirang Waterfall. What a beautiful
waterfall. We enjoyed the nice water in the rain forest surrounding the waterfall.
Hearing the sound of falling water made me peace and relax. It was also excellent
drowning out background sound. Playing with the water made me feel so happy.

Finally, the time was over. It was time for us to go home. It was an unforgettable
moment. I really enjoyed it.

singing to its hearts content. An ant passed by, bearing along with great toil
an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.
Why not come and chat with me, said the grasshopper, instead of toiling
and moiling in that way?
I am helping to lay up food for the winter, said the ant, and recommend
you to do the same.
Why bother about winter? said the grasshopper; we have got plenty of food
at present. The Ant went on its way and continued its toil.

collected in the summer.

Contoh Report Text
Komodo Dragon.
Komodo dragons have thrived in the harsh climate of Indonesias Lesser Sunda Islands for
millions of years, although amazingly, their existence was unknown to humans until about 100
years ago.
Reaching 10 feet (3 meters) in length and more than 300 pounds (136 kilograms), Komodo
dragons are the heaviest lizards on Earth. They have long, flat heads with rounded snouts, scaly
skin, bowed legs, and huge, muscular tails.
As the dominant predators on the handful of islands they inhabit, they will eat almost anything,
including carrion, deer, pigs, smaller dragons, and even large water buffalo and humans. When
hunting, Komodo dragons rely on camouflage and patience, lying in wait for passing prey. When
a victim ambles by, the dragon springs, using its powerful legs, sharp claws and serrated, sharklike teeth to eviscerate its prey.

Animals that escape the jaws of a Komodo will only feel lucky briefly. Dragon saliva teems with
over 50 strains of bacteria, and within 24 hours, the stricken creature usually dies of blood
poisoning. Dragons calmly follow an escapee for miles as the bacteria takes effect, using their
keen sense of smell to hone in on the corpse. A dragon can eat a whopping 80 percent of its body
weight in a single feeding.
There is a stable population of about 3,000 to 5,000 Komodo dragons on the islands of Komodo,
Gila Motang, Rinca, and Flores. However, a dearth of egg-laying females, poaching, human
encroachment, and natural disasters has driven the species to endangered status.

How to Make a Milkshake
A milkshake is a sweet, cold beverage which is usually made from milk, ice cream, or iced milk,
and flavorings or sweeteners such as butterscotch, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, or fruit syrup.
If you want to make a delicious milkshake by your selves, then this is the way how to make it.
The ingredients that you need to make a milkshake are:

4 cups vanilla ice cream

2 cups milk

4 teaspoons chocolate sauce (optional)

1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries

Now, follow these steps to make a milkshake.

1. Place milkshake glasses into the freezer. Using cold glasses will help the shake stay cool
to give you time to enjoy. Leave for up to an hour if possible.
2. Soften ice cream. It is easier to make a shake when the ice cream is slightly soft. Take the
ice cream out of the freezer a few minutes before making your shake.
3. Place the ingredients into a blender. Mix the ice cream, milk and added flavors into the
blender. Blend on high for one minute. Dont leave in the blender for longer or the shake
will melt quickly.
4. Pour shakes into frosty glasses. Take the glasses out of the freezer as soon as the blending
is complete. Then pour the shake mixture in.

5. Drop a straw into the shake, then enjoy. You can sip a shake right from the glass but
somehow the straw adds to the flavor and the experience.
If you do not have a blender, you may substitute with a mixer, but be careful as it could be
messy. And if you do not have anything else to mix, just use a spoon, but let the ice cream thaw
first to make the milkshake easier to mix. Enjoy your milkshake.
