Thesis

road deaths and other accidents.

Argument 1

asthma. Some of these illnesses are so bad that people can die from them.

pedestrains in the city, which causes them to die. Cars today are our roads biggest killers.

concentrate on your homework, and especially talk to someone.

Reiteration
in conclusion, cars should be benned from the city for the reason listed.
Sebagian siswa masih menemukan Analytical Exposition dan Hortatory Exposition sulit dibedakan.
Mudah kok ^_^.

Kedua teks tersebut masuk dalam kategori persuasive text. Persuasive textmerupakan teks yang
bertujuan untuk mempengaruhi seseorang akan ide yang penulis utarakan -baik untuk mengubah
pandangan seseorang sesuai pandangan si penulis terkait suatu kasus tertentu maupun untuk
mencari pendukung akan ide yang diutarakan si penulis.

Untuk perbedaannya yang jelas dan tidak sulit dipahamai yaitu terletak padageneric structure ke dua
teks tersebut. Perhatikan:

Analytical exposition (lihat penjelasan lengkapnya di sini):
1. Thesis
2. Argument
3. Conclusion/Reiteration
Hortatory Exposition (lihat penjelasan lengkapnya di sini
1. Thesis
2. Argument
3. Recommendation
Perhatikan bagian poin ke tiga, jika analytical exposition pada paragraf terakhirnya berisikan
kesimpulan atau pernyataan ulang atas inti dari ide yang disampaikan, maka hortatory
exposition berisikan rekomendasi untuk pembaca. Yang penting diperhatikan yaitu penggunaan ciri
kata yang sering digunkan dalam memberikan rekomendasi atau saran: should, should not, ought
to, ought not to. Lihat contoh di bawah:

tersebut merupakan pernyataan ulang dari yang diutrakan penuis di paragraf pertama)
Public Transportation should be Free

If we can agree that government has some role to play in our lives, then lets at least make it a
positive one. Consider the benefits of free, fully-subsidized public transportation.

First, it will motivate more people to leave their cars at home. Think of the reduction in pollution and
traffic jam and insurance costs due to accidents. Greener cities, safer cities, more livable cities. More
room for parks and trees. Think of the money well all save by consuming less gas, spending less
frequently on car repairs, and so on. That money will stay in our wallets and we could then turn
around and give the economy a boost by spending it on other consumer goods or services. More
jobs.

Secondly, we must consider the health benefits. Well all walk a little more. This will reduce visits to
doctors offices and hospitals because well be healthier. Well have improved blood pressure, lower
stress and possibly a better complexion.

In addition, free transportation will encourage us to enjoy the company of our friends and family. It
will become much more feasible to safely drink another glass of wine at the restaurant or have that
extra beer at the family gathering. Well avoid the worry of getting behind the wheel with a blood-
alcohol level thats above the legal limit. Fewer accidents, fewer tragedies, lower costs of policing
and reduced court backlogs. The increased public expense in transportation should pay off in the
form of reduced health care costs and a safer society.

Then, think about some of the other social benefits: imagine how much well learn from each other
when we share rides instead of sitting in isolation in our cars. Talking to the neighbors might come
back into fashion. More people will meet and talk and maybe even help each other.

Having someone else drive us will also give us more time for reading books and newspapers. So, park
your car and use it for your dream vacation.

No more fumbling for change, just hop on and off the streetcar or bus wherever and whenever you
like. What a great idea, especially for those who live in crowded, polluted cities. It will renew life on
our streets.

So I cant agree more with this proposition. Lets go for it!

SHOULD ---> rekomendasi.

Organic Farming
A Solution for Harmless Food


Organic farming is a form of agriculture which excludes the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides,
plant growth regulators, live-stock feed additives, and genetically modified organisms. It is believed
that organic farming should replace conventional one for some reasons.

Firstly, as far as possible, organic farmers rely on crop rotation, integrated pest management, crop
residue, compost and mechanical cultivation to maintain soil productivity and control pests.

Secondly, studies have shown that people who work with pesticides have an increased risk of
developing Parkinsons disease. The pesticides examined in these two long-term studies, paraquat
and dieldrin, are not allowed on organic farms. The herbicide paraquat and fungicide maneb
together, but not alone, have been shown to cause brain damage in mice. Some organic farming
standards do allow the use of natural methods of protection from pests such as those derived from
plants. Organic activists state that natural pesticides are a last alternative, while growing healthier,
disease-resistant plants, using cover crops and crop rotation, and encouraging beneficial insects and
birds are the primary methods of pest control.

Finally, a 2001 study demonstrated that children who are fed organic diets experienced significantly
lower organophosphorus pesticide exposure than children fed conventional diets. A similar study in
2006 measured the levels of organophosphorus pesticide exposure in 23 pre-school children before
and after replacing their diet with organic food: levels of organophosphorus pesticide exposure
dropped dramatically and immediately when the children switched to an organic diet. Although the
researchers did not collect health outcome data in this study, they concluded it assumes that
children whose diets consist of organic food items would have a lower probability of neurologic
health risks.

Therefore, organic farming should replace conventional one to reduce the using of pesticides which
usually remain in farm production such as fruits and vegetables since there are a lot of research
which prove that pesticides may be harmful for the consumers if people use pesticides improperly.
