Practice the following dialog with your friend.
Dialog 1
Rama : Hi, Sofia. You are sitting here all alone. Why don’t you
stay with those girls?
Sofia : Hi, Yan. In my opinion, it doesn’t make any sense if we
sit together, but we are busy with our cell phones. So, I’m sitting here
memorizing vocabulary than playing with my phone. It’s much
beneficial.
Rama : You’re right. Several people believe that a smartphone
may keep people away.
Sofia : That’s the reason I don’t open my phone before the class
starts. I prefer chatting with friends to playing with my phones.
Rama : So do I. I’d like to point out that I’m here not only to study
but also to develop my social relationship. I want to have lots of friends
by joining this course. By the way, why don’t you ask them to stop
playing with their phones?
Sofia : Sorry, that’s none of my business. I shouldn’t bother
them.
Dialog 2
Mawar : Are you alright, Figo?
Figo : Yes, I’m, thanks.
Mawar : But I don’t think you are O.K. I’d say that you lose
your spirit and cheerfulness.
Figo : Thanks for your concern. I only need to relax this
time.
Mawar : You can’t lie to me. I’ve known you for a long time, so
I know your character. You’d better tell me about your
problem. I might know the solution.
Figo : Mawar, don’t push me. I’m fine.
Mawar : Sorry. I don’t want you to be sad.
Figo : I’m fine.
Mawar : Well, what if we play a guessing game? In my
experience, it can boost our energy.
Figo : If it’s only two of us, it’s not exciting.
Mawar : O.K. I’ll leave you alone. Bye!
Figo : See you!

Read the following dialog.
Then, practice it with a friend.
Dewi : Have you heard that a reckless driver may get an
electronic ticket? Bagus : Yes, I have. But, isn’t that just a
discourse?
Dewi : No. One of our friends received a ticket yesterday.
He passed the red light a few days ago and just received a
letter from the police.
Bagus : Poor him.
Dewi : By the way, do you agree with this policy?
Bagus : I one hundred percent agree. Every road user has
to obey the rules. It’s all for the safety and comfort of all road
users. What do you think?
Dewi : I think so too. I’m so annoyed when reckless
motorists break traffic regulations.
Bagus : That’s true. Such motorists have to learn to
respect other road users from now on. As students, we should
be embarrassed when we break the rules.
Dewi : That’s right. We have to be careful and disciplined.
Bagus : True!

Analytical Exposition Text
Read the following text.
What has one billion users and doubles as the second largest search
engine on the Internet? The answer is YouTube. This search engine has been
an incredible tool for most businesses. Unfortunately, not many businesses
make use of it. I want to share why YouTube is such an significant platform for
your brand.
It is said that YouTube is the second largest search engine, while its parent
company Google is the first. Do you know what it means? It means Google
gives search engine priority to YouTube videos. Try to search for a “how to” on
Google, then the results come back with several videos related to the “how to”.
The videos may have even been the first results on the page even though
some of these videos date back several years, to 2011 and before!
Even without relying on Google, your chance of getting discovered on
YouTube alone is very high. By using the right keywords for your videos (actual
phrases that your customers will use to locate your content), you can increase
the odds of discovery.
Furthermore, you can use YouTube to keep the audience’s attention.
Ultimately, you can turn your audience from leads into customers by building
trust. Consequently, you need to also provide something valuable to your
audience so that they remain interested in what you have to say. That value
could be a how-to, a product demo, or a freebie found on your site.
Based on the arguments above, I believe that YouTube is beneficial to
promote and expand your businesses. So, what are you waiting for? Make one
now.
