Dear Lucy,
My parents and I are in Bali now. We are staying in Nusa Dua Beach Hotel. Our room is big and cozy. It has a beach view.
This is my second visit to Bali and it is still wonderful. There are many things to see and do there. The beaches and temples are awesome. The ceremonies are also interesting.
So far, we have shopped a lot. I bought some T-shirts and hundreds of wooden accessories. My mum bought a beautiful statue and my dad bought a large painting. The painting is not only beautiful but also very expensive.
I will return to Malang next week. Hope to see you again soon!

Love

Astuti

Dear Sir,
I’m worried about the situation happening in the North Sea. I will be very sad if the water is polluted because I love going to the beach and swimming in the sea. Furthermore, we will lose the source of protein if the fish and other sea creatures die.
Please do something for the betterment of the beach and the sea. I will support your programs and try my best to give help. My friends and I will also campaign for the North Sea.
That’s all for now. I do hope you will take action as soon as possible.

Your Faithfully

Abbey Brigg

Text 1
The Stingy and the Generous
(A folk tale from Sambas)
Long, long time ago, there lived two brothers. They had completely different characters. The big brother was very stingy and greedy. He never shared his wealth with the poor. The little brother was exactly the opposite. He was generous and kind to poor people. He even had no money left because he had shared it with the poor.
One day the generous brother was sitting in his garden when suddenly a little bird fell on his lap. It was wounded. He took care of it, fed it, and put it in a nice cage. After the bird was healthy, the generous brother let it fly. After some time, the bird returned to him and gave him a watermelon seed.
The generous brother, then, planted the seed and watered it until it grew into a good watermelon plant. Yet, the plant was very strange. It had only one fruit; a big and heavy one. When the watermelon was ripe enough, the generous brother picked it and cut it into two. How surprised he was. The watermelon was full of gold.
The generous brother sold the gold and became very rich. He built a big house and bought very large field. Still, he never forgot to share his wealth with the poor.

Takatuliang, the woodcarver
Long, long time ago on the island of Simbau, in the Sulawesi Sea, there lived a king and his beautiful daughter. The princess was not only beautiful, but she was also wise and kind.
Many princes wanted to marry the king’s daughter and this made the king confused. He, then, announced a contest: whoever presented the princess with the most valuable gift would marry her.
Takatuliang, a poor woodcarver, wanted to join the contest but he was so poor that he had nothing to present. Then, he went far into the forest. There he chose the best tree and carved it into a doll. Next, he took an old piece of cloth and sewed it into a dress for the doll. After that, he cut his own hair and glued it to the doll’s head.
On the day of the contest, all of the princes gathered before the king and the princess. One by one, they presented their gifts: diamond, silk, gold, jewelry. Then, came Takatuliang’s turn.
“What do you have?” asked the princess.
“I bring only a doll,” said Takatuliang softly.
“How many dolls like this do you have?” asked the princess again.
“Only this one. I carved it myself and decorated it with my own hair and my father’s old cloth. He died and this is the only thing he left me.” answered Takatuliang.
The princess was very touched to hear Takatuliang’s story. She decided to marry Takatuliang because he had presented her everything he had. Together, Takatuliang, and the princess lived happily ever after

Report Text 2 for Grade 9 Semester 1

Level: English for Junior and Senior High School
24-hours online learning

Text 1
Tasmanian Devil
Australia has many interesting animals. The first animal is Tasmanian Devil. Have you heard this animal before? It only lives on the Australian island state of Tasmania.
The Tasmanian Devil is a marsupial like the kangaroo. This means the mother has a pocket or a pouch where she carries her babies. The Tasmanian Devil is mostly black but sometimes it has some white fur on its chest. It has short legs and a long tail. It looks a little like a very small bear. The largest male can be about 30 centimeters high and can weigh up to 12 kilograms. That’s about the same size as a small dog. But the females are usually smaller. The Tasmanian Devil is a nocturnal animal. That means it likes night time. It sleeps in the day and gets up at night to look for food to eat. In the daytime, it will sleep under a fallen tree or in long grass.
The Tasmanian Devil was given this name by the first European people who went to Tasmania. They called it because they were afraid of it. They were afraid because it makes a terrible sound and it is horrible to watch it eating. The Tasmanian Devil has a strong mouth and very sharp teeth. It eats a lot of meat. It will eat small animals like rabbit, birds, and reptiles such as lizards. It will even eat dead cows and sheep if it can’t find any.

What is Rubberwood?
Rubberwood is the standard common name for the timber of Hevea Brasiliensis. Rubberwood (also called Parawood in Thailand) is one of the more durable lumbers (wood) used in the manufacturing of today’s home furnishings. Rubberwood has very little shrinkage, making it one of the more stable construction materials available for furniture manufacturing. Rubberwood has very little tendency to warp or crack.
Like maple, rubberwood is a sap producing species. In the case of maple, it is sap; in the case of rubberwood, it is latex. Rubberwood produces all the latex used in the world for all rubber based products.
There is one more important feature of rubberwood that is very important in today’s world. Rubberwood is the most ecologically friendly lumber used in today’s furniture industry. After the economic life of the rubber tree, which is generally 26 – 30 years, the latex yields become extremely low and the planters then fell the rubber trees and plant new ones. So, unlike other woods that are cut down for the sole purpose of producing furniture, rubberwood is used only after it completes its latex producing cycle and dies. This wood is therefore eco-friendly in the sense that we are now using what was going as waste.
