 BAB II
PEMBAHASAN

A. Understanding

Before looking What is the definition of descriptive text as a whole, let us understand
what is meant by the word descriptive itself. Descriptive is an adjective that if we
mean in Indonesian means that the description (picture). If you were asked to
describe an object, it means you have to describe the object in question both in the
size, color and so forth. According to Wikipedia, is a Descriptive text is: "one kaedah
data processing effort into something that can be expressed clearly and precisely
with the aim that can be understood by people who do not directly experience it for
yourself." So what is meant by descriptive text is an article or text that describes the
properties inherent in something, be it humans, animals, plants, or inanimate objects
such as houses, cars and so forth.

B. Purpose Descriptive Text

Judging from the above understanding, then in fact we are able to understand what
is the purpose of descriptive text. Another goal is to describe everything be it human,
animal, plant or inanimate objects with properties attached to it such as size, type,
color, and so forth so that the reader or the reader can figure out what something is
out of the picture we convey even though he has not never seen.

C. Structure Text (Generic Structure)

Descriptive text has its own rules in writing, including in the structure or composition
of which must be written in order. If you are prompted to create descriptive text, then
make sure the structure is as follows:

1. Identification: This section - in the first paragraph - the goal is to identify

something to be described or depicted. Explanation easy, Identification serves to
introduce the reader about the object or something that we have described before
we tell about its properties. The goal is not to get one of those readers. We want to
describe a car, for example, but the reader assumed motors. Example: you are
asked to describe the new car, then the contents of his identification is: My dad just
bought a new car. This car is long I craved, but only now my father bought. (Means
to be portrayed is my car, not the car someone else).

2. Description: This section - in the second paragraph and so on - contains the

properties inherent in something that you already introduced to the reader in the first
paragraph. Example (continued on cars above): This is my new car is the latest
sports car from Toyota. Number bench only two, one for the driver and one for
passengers, as well as the door. This car can be sped up to speeds of 500 km / h,
almost equal to the speed of Fokker plane manifold.

D. Characteristics Descriptive Text

These characteristics are important for you to take into account when writing the
descriptive text is not wrong. So make sure you use the following features when
using the genre will write descriptive text:

1. Using the Simple Present Tense. Why use the simple present tense? this is
because we will describe a fact or truth that is attached to something or someone.
And one of the functions of the simple present is to illustrate a fact or truth (eg fact:
the sun is hot). Therefore, you should always use the first form of the verb (verb-1).
Your example will illustrate the properties of your new car: The color of my car is
black, it can run up to 500 km / hour.

2. Because of its function is to describe something by explaining its properties,

then the text will be found many descriptive adjectives (adjective), as handsome,
beautiful, tall, small, big, or if the adjective is derived from the verb, then you will find
additional -ve, -ing, -nt in tow,
Example: Create (create)> creative (smart people make something).
Interest (interest)> interesting (something interesting)

3. In the descriptive text we will often find Relating verb (copula) which is (as in
characteristic number 1). In Indonesian is often interpreted as "is". Because the
purpose or function descriptive text is to describe, then definitely we will often find
the word was (is). His name is Andy (his name was Andy), his height is 160 cm
(height is 160 cm).

E. Sample Descriptive Text and explanation.
