First of all, I wanna apologize to Mrs.Vita
for all of my mistakes, mine, or my friends’ that make her uncomfortable.
Well, I would like to tell you
about what I’ve get and what I haven’t get yet. It’s started from Wednesday
meeting. We had a workshop about comparison & contrast paragraph. In that
time, I hold Ima’s composition. It’s a long a long paragraph that I proud of.
Why? Because she can make it longer but the content is clear. She gives many
points she compared, and she explained it in details. She just need little more
careful to get the perfect composition, whereas my writing is really contrast
to hers. My paragraph is a short paragraph
and only gives a point of contrast and a point of comparison. Also, it isn’t
well organized. It still raises many questions. That’s what I’ve not get yet.
I’m not able to compose a long paragraph, give some points in details, and
organize well. I have to learn it more. Any suggestions?
Let’s go on to the Friday meeting.
There are six students presented their paragraph. In outline, they presented
about cause and effect, illustration, report, argumentative, and
definition. What I’ve learned about
cause and effect in this section is: when we find a paragraph that explain about
cause only/effect only, it’s still named cause &effect, not explanation. Because cause & effect can’t stand alone like comparison &
contrast. Where there’s a cause, there must be an effect, and where there’s an
effect, there must be a cause. According to me, there’s no paragraph that
explain about cause only/effect only. It could be the cause is more dominant
and the effect less dominant like Kajol’s paragraph. Or, the effect is more
dominant like Ro’is’ paragraph. The next paragraph is illustration. When I read
Aida’s paragraph about illustration, I thought that it’s narrative because it
tells about someone. But, it’s impossible to say it’s descriptive because it
doesn’t describe the person. It just tells about Craig john, doesn’t describe
him, and doesn’t present chronological order like narrative. The next paragraph
is report. Report paragraph is unlike argumentative because the content of
argumentative is debatable, while the content of report is objective
information that’s not debatable. Continuing to the next paragraph, it’s
argumentative. I’ve just known that there must be a strong position in
argumentative paragraph. For the first sight I read Aris’ paragraph, I think
the topic sentence is “I disagree ….” because all of sentences give explanation
about the disagreement, but actually it just for emphasizing. Well, the last
paragraph is definition paragraph by Achy. It’s called definition because it
defines pollution, although it mentions the causes of pollution like
classification.
