Car is the most popular transportation. However,
there are many different causes of car accidents in
streets. Sometimes accidents are caused by bad
weather. Ice or snow can make toads very
dangerous. Accidents also can result from
problems with the car. Even a small problem like a
flat tire can be serious. Bad roads are another
cause of accidents.
Some accidents are caused by drinking too much
alcohol.
Knowing some factor causing accident is extremely important to prevent accident while
driving

4. Examples and structures of the text


cars should be banned in the city
Cars should be banned in the city. As we all know,
cars create pollution, and cause a lot of road deaths
Thesis and other accidents.
Firstly, cars, as we all know, contribute to most of
the pollution in the world.Cars emit a deadly gas
that causes illnesses such as bronchitis, lung
cancer, and ‘triggers’ off asthma. Some of these
illnesses are so bad that people can die from them.
Secondly, the city is very busy. Pedestrians wander
everywhere and cars commonly hit pedestrians in
the city, which causes them to die. Cars today are
our roads biggest killers.

Thirdly, cars are very noisy. If you live in the city,


you may find it hard to sleep at night, or
concentrate on your homework, and especially talk
to someone.
Arguments
In conclusion, cars should be banned from the city
Reiteration for the reasons listed.

The government should Provide rehabilitation Program for Drug Users

Drug users are actually ill people who need help. Rehabilitation is one of the main
things they should get. Instead of punishing drug users in prisons, the government
should provide rehabilitation for them.

Most users are actually victims of persuasive peddlers and they suffer from
consuming the drugs. Therefore, by rehabilitating them, we are actually helping them
out from traps, which they might accidentally step on.

If we only arrest drug users and send them to jail, this doesn't solve the problem as
drug users will still be addicted unless proper rehabilitation is imposed to them.
Providing rehabilitation programs for drug users and forcing them to participate in the
programs is better than only arresting them and doing nothing to their illness. Only
drug dealers, traffickers, and wholesalers should be imprisoned.

1. Most drug users get drugs from ....

A. Jails
B. Peddlers
C. Traffickers
D. Wholesalers
E. Rehabilitation center

2. Sending the drug users to prison is not a good solution because ....

A. They can't consume harmful drugs


B. They are treated normally
C. They may still be infected with harmful drugs
D. They can be freed as soon as possible
E. They are given the whole recovery program

3. "...drug users will still be addicted unless proper rehabilitation is imposed to


them." (Paragraph 3) The underlined word is closest in meaning to ....

several things that we can do. One of them is by buying and consuming fresh local
groceries as much as possible. It of course includes local vegetables, fruits, bread,
etc.

Local groceries don’t need much transportation to get it into the market. It of course

region. Therefore, by buying local groceries we are helping reduce the amount of
carbon dioxide produced.

Consuming fresh groceries instead of frozen ones are healthier for us. Furthermore,
fresh food or groceries means no requirements for it to be freeze up. It means that
no electricity is needed and saving energy means reducing carbon dioxide and
money.

warming.

Read the following text to answer questions number 7 to 10.

The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been serious
problem for three reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for
biological specimens and experiments. Formalin in Biology is a 10% solution of
formaldehyde in water which is usually used as a disinfectant or to preserve
biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservatives. Of course when it is used
for food preservative, it will be very dangerous to human’s body.

The second reason is that there is no tight control from the government. This
condition makes the people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak
and the use formalin was spread wide all over the Indonesian regions, and these
days it has really happened, the citizen's bodies will be badly contaminated with the
poisons. Fish or food traders still sell their products which contain formalin and
dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our digestive system absorbs the
substance that should be for the human and animal corpses?

Considering the reasons, we can make a conclusion that the use of formalin and
other preservatives is really a serious problem if it is not resolved immediately.

5 PASSIVE VOICE
VOICECVOICE
Use of passive
Passive voice is used when the focus is on the action. It is not important or not
known, however, who or what is performing the action.

Example: My car was stolen.

In the example above, the focus is on the fact that my bike was stolen. I do not know,
however, who did it.

Sometimes a statement in passive is more polite than active voice, as the following
example shows:

Example: A apologize was made.

In this case, I focus on the fact that a apologize was made, but I do not blame anyone
(e.g. You have made a apologize.).

Form of Passive

22 | English Book
Subject + finite form of to be + Past Participle (3rd column of irregular verbs)

Example: A letter was written.

When rewriting active sentences in passive voice, note the following:

 the object of the active sentence becomes the subject of the passive sentence
 the finite form of the verb is changed (to be + past participle)
 the subject of the active sentence becomes the object of the passive sentence
(or is dropped)

Examples of Passive
Tense Subject Verb Object
Active: Rita writes a letter.
Simple Present
Passive: A letter is written by Rita.
Active: Rita wrote a letter.
Simple Past
Passive: A letter was written by Rita.
Active: Rita has written a letter.
Present Perfect
Passive: A letter has been written by Rita.
Active: Rita will write a letter.
Future I
Passive: A letter will be written by Rita.
Active: Rita can write a letter.
Hilfsverben
Passive: A letter can be written by Rita.

Examples of Passive
Tense Subject Verb Object
a
Active: Rita is writing
Present letter.

Passive: A letter is being written
Rita.
a
Active: Rita was writing

Past Progressive

Passive: A letter was being written
Rita.
a
Active: Rita had written

23 | English Book

a
Active: Rita would write
letter.
Conditional I
by
Passive: A letter would be written
Rita.
a
Conditional II Active: Rita would have written
letter.
A would have been by
Passive:
letter written Rita.

Passive Sentences with Two Objects


Rewriting an active sentence with two objects in passive voice means
that one of the two objects becomes the subject, the other one
remains an object. Which object to transform into a subject depends
on what you want to put the focus on.

Subject Verb Object 1 Object 2


Active: Rita wrote a letter to me.
Passive: A letter was written to me by Rita.
Passive: I was written a letter by Rita.
.

As you can see in the examples, adding by Rita does not sound very elegant. That’s
why it is usually dropped.

Personal and Impersonal Passive


Personal Passive simply means that the object of the active sentence becomes the
subject of the passive sentence. So every verb that needs an object (transitive verb)
can form a personal passive.

24 | English Book
Example: They build houses. – Houses are built.

Verbs without an object (intransitive verb) normally cannot form a personal passive
sentence (as there is no object that can become the subject of the passive sentence).
If you want to use an intransitive verb in passive voice, you need an impersonal
construction – therefore this passive is called Impersonal Passive.

Example: he says – it is said

Impersonal Passive is not as common in English as in some other languages (e.g.


German, Latin). In English, Impersonal Passive is only possible with verbs of
perception (e. g. say, think, know).

Example: They say that women live longer than men. – It is said that women live
longer than men.

Although Impersonal Passive is possible here, Personal Passive is more common.

Example: They say that women live longer than men. – Women are said to live longer
than men.

The subject of the subordinate clause (women) goes to the beginning of the
sentence; the verb of perception is put into passive voice. The rest of the sentence is
added using an infinitive construction with 'to' (certain auxiliary verbs and that are
dropped).

Sometimes the term Personal Passive is used in English lessons if the indirect object
of an active sentence is to become the subject of the passive sentence

6 PERSONAL LETTER

Pengertian Personal Letter

Jika kita berbicara mengenai pengertian personal letter atau definition of


personal letter maka dapat kita katakan secara sederhana bahwa personal letter adalah
sebuah surat yang dikirim oleh seseorang secara individu kepada orang lain atau pun
instansi tertentu. Intinya adalah surat ini di kirim oleh perorangan dan bukan
merupakan surat dari sebuah instansi, organisasi atau perusahaan.

Tujuan dikirimkannya surat tersebut adalah untuk hal-hal yang sifatnya pribadi
atau masalah pribadi si pengirim surat. Lalu hal apa saja yang bisa dikirim melalui jenis
surat pribadi tersebut? Beberapa hal yang bisa menjadi isi dari personal letter antara
lain yaitu:

1) Permintaan maaf (apologies)


2) Ucapan terima kasih (Thank you's)
3) Ucapan selamat (Congratulations)
4) Undangan (Invitations)

Sesuai dengan namanya, personal letter tentu saja berisikan hal-hal personal
atau pribadi jadi ini sangat berbeda dengan jenis surat resmi. Dengan surat pribadi
seperti ini tentu saja kita dapat menggunakannya misalnya untuk mengungkapkan
perasaan kepada yang dikirimi surat. Sedangkan masalah bahasa yang digunakan pun
tidak menggunakan aturan formal atau bahasa formal tetapi bebas sesuai keinginan.

Kaidah Penulisan Personal Letter

Di atas telah dijelaskan bahwa "personal letter" tidak harus menggunakan


kaidah penulisan baku tetapi menggunakan penulisan sesuai keinginan. Namun begitu
tetap saja ada beberapa hal yang bisa kita sesuaikan sebagai acuan dalam membuat
surat pribadi yang baik. Tidak harus mengikuti tata penulisannya namun setidaknya
bagian-bagian personal letter tersebut bisa dijadikan acuan dalam penulisan surat
yang baik. Supaya lebih jelas mengenai bentuk umum format penulisan dari surat ini
mari kita perhatikan layout berikut!

Bentuk Penulisan Personal Letter yang Umum

Jelas bahwa tidak ada aturan baku dalam membuat surat pribadi dalam bahasa
Inggris namun ada baiknya kita menggunakan layout atau bentuk penulisan di atas
agar surat kita bisa lebih baik. Beberapa hal yang perlu diperhatikan dalam penulisan

32 | English Book
surat tersebut yaitu misalnya alamat, sapaan dan juga penutup. Agar lebih jelas mari
kita bahas satu per satu bagian - bagian surat pribadi tersebut!

Penulisan alamat

Meski merupakan surat pribadi tetapi jangan sampai kita lupa untuk menuliskan
alamat lengkap kita. Alamat ini gunanya adalah untuk memberikan kesempatan
kepada si penerima surat untuk dapat membalas surat yang kita kirim tersebut. Kalau
kita tidak menulis alamat kita bagaimana orang bisa membalas surat kita, benar tidak?
Cara penulisan alamatnya bisa sesuai pada tata letak di atas yaitu di bagian kanan atas
surat.

Selain itu jangan lupa juga menulis alamat penerimanya, jelas dan lengkap, Personal
Letter, Pengertian dan Contoh. Alamat penerima bisa di tulis di bagian kiri atas dengan
menuliskan juga nama penerima suratnya.

Penulisan tanggal

Walaupun ini merupakan surat pribadi namun tetap saja kita sebaiknya
mencantumkan tanggal surat untuk informasi kapan surat tersebut telah di buat.
Penulisan tanggal penting sebagai referensi baik bagi pengirim maupun penerima
surat. Bentuk penulisan tanggalnya bisa dilihat seperti contohnya yaitu "1st January
2016"

Penulisan salam pembuka


Salam pembuka atau (Salutation & Greeting) sebaiknya juga di tulis dengan
baik dan benar. Contoh penulisan salam pembuka surat pribadi tersebut misalnya
"Dear Mr Jones,". Beberapa singkatan yang digunakan dalam salam pembuka yaitu:

Mr - untuk laki-laki
Mrs - untuk wanita yang sudah menikah
Miss - untuk wanita yang belum menikah
Ms - untuk wanita yang statusnya tidak diketahui
Dr - untuk orang yang statusnya dokter

Dalam surat pribadi biasanya salam pembuka akan disesuaikan dengan


kedekatan hubungan antara pengirim surat dan penerima surat, misalnya saja dalam
bahasa kita sering digunakan kata - kata yang mesra dan romantis.

33 | English Book
Bagian akhir personal letter akan di tutup dengan kesimpulan yaitu
menggunakan kata-kata "Yours sincerely,". Untuk kalimat penutup tersebut kita juga
bisa menggunakan kalimat lain misalnya "All the best", "Best regards," dan sebagainya.
Setelah penutup tersebut maka diikuti dengan nama dan tanda tangan kita sebagai
pengirim surat.

Contoh Personal Letter dan Artinya

Sudah panjang lebar kita bahas mengenai apa dan bagaimana surat pribadi
dalam bahasa Inggris tersebut. Tentu saja dengan penjelasan di atas kita sduah
mendapatkan gambaran yang lebih jelas mengenai salah satu jenis surat bahasa
Inggris tersebut. Dengan begitu kita diharapkan dapat membuat surat pribadi dengan
lebih baik lagi dengan memperhatikan berbagai hal di atas.

Apakah kita bisa paham dan mengerti hanya dengan mempelajari materi atau teorinya
saja? Ya, bisa saja sih namun akan lebih cepat dan mudah paham jika kita bisa melihat
langsung dan mempelajari langsung contoh personal letter bahasa Inggris tersebut.
Dengan melihat langsung contohnya maka kita bukan hanya akan mengetahui
bagaimana bentuk penulisan surat tersebut namun kita juga dapat mempelajari
berbagai vocabulary atau kosa kata yang digunakan. Maka dari itu mari kita perhatikan
contoh berikut!

Long Drought 2018

Drought during 2018 has caused many problems. First, the people lack of clean water
to either take a bath, wash clothes or drink. Consequently, the government has to
spend more expenditure in social welfare. Second, many breeders do not find grass
for their cattle, sheep and goats. As result, their animals get thinner day after day due
to lack of enough food. Third, many farmers who depend on rainfall can not cultivate
their land. Consequently, they do not get regular income from agribusiness. This also
causes the farmer labors of losing their jobs. Therefore, poverty rate gets increased
this year. Finally, the drought has a great impact on the water reservoir: dams, lake,
canal. Their water level go down or even totally dry. All of those conditions are clearly
due to mono cause that is long drought in our country.

Example : How Earthquakes Happen

Earthquake is one of the most destroying natural disasters. Unluckily it often


happens in several regions. Recently a horrible earthquake has shaken West Sumatra.
It has brought great damages. Why did it occur? Do you know how an earthquake
happens?

Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly breaks


along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves. It make the
ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing against each other,
they stick a little. They don’t just slide smoothly. The rocks are still pushing against
each other, but not moving. After a while, the rocks break because of all the pressure
that’s built up. When the rocks break, the earthquake occurs.

During the earthquake and afterward, the plates or blocks of rock start
moving, and they continue to move until they get stuck again. The spot underground
where the rock breaks is called the focus of the earthquake. The place right above
the focus is called the epicenter of the earthquake.

Closing Finally the pulp is rolled out to make paper.

50 | English Book
Example of Explanation Text

A. Tsunami

The term of “tsunami” comes from the Japanese which means harbour (“tsu”) and
wave (“nami”). A tsunamigk is a series of waves generated when water in a lake or the
sea is rapidly displaced on a massive scale.

A tsunami can be generated when the sea floor abruptly deforms and vertically
displaces the overlying water. Such large vertical movements of the earth’s crust can
occur at plate boundaries.

Subduction of earthquakes are particularly effective in generating tsunamis, and


occur where denser oceanic plates slip under continental plates.

As the displaced water mass moves under the influence of gravity to regain its
equilibrium, it radiates across the ocean like ripples on a pond.

Tsunami always bring great damage. Most of the damage is caused by the huge
mass of water behind the initial wave front, as the height of the sea keeps rising fast
and floods powerfully into the coastal area.

(simplified from www.panda.org)

B. How Day and Night Happen

The sun seems to rise in the morning, crosses the sky during the day and sets at
night. However the sun does not actually move around the earth. Earth’s turning on
its axis makes it look as if the sun is moves.

The earth makes a complete turn on its axis for 24 hours. It is called as rotation. It
causes day and night. The earth also moves around the sun. It takes 365 days or a
year. This process is called revolution. The revolution process causes the changes of
the season

C. Why Summer Daylight is Longger than Winter Daylight

51 | English Book
In the summer, the amount of daylight that we get is more than we get in winter.
This is not because as much people think we are closer to the sun but because of the
tilt of the earth.

The earth is actually closer to the sun in winter than it is in summer but you would be
forgiven for thinking that this can not be true after looking out of your window on a
cold and frosty morning.

It seems strange that as the earth get closer to the sun during its orbit then the
amount of daylight that we get decrease. But that is the case. It is the tilt of the earth
that determine the amount of daylight that we get and so the length of time that for
us the sun is above the horizon.

(Taken from: www.ictteachers.co.uk)

Generic Structure Analysis

General statement; stating the phenomenon whic daylight in summer is longer than
in winter.

Explanation; it is the tilt of the earth that determines the amount of daylight not the
distance of the earth from the sun.

Language Feature Analysis

Focusing generic participant; daylight.

Using chronological connection; then, so, but.

Using pasive voice; you would be forgiven.

Using present tense; the earth is actually closer to the sun.

EXERCISE

Recycling is a collection, processing, and reuse of materials that would


otherwise be thrown away. Materials ranging from precious metals to broken glass,
from old newspapers to plastic spoons, can be recycled. The recycling process reclaims
the original material and uses it in new products.
In general, using recycled materials to make new products costs less and
requires less energy than using new materials. Recycling can also reduce pollution,

52 | English Book
either by reducing the demand for high-pollution alternatives or by minimizing the
amount of pollution produced during the manufacturing process.
Paper products that can be recycled include cardboard containers, wrapping
paper, and office paper. The most commonly recycled paper product is newsprint. In
newspaper recycling, old newspapers are collected and searched for contaminants
such as plastic bags and aluminum foil. The paper goes to a processing plant where it
is mixed with hot water and turned into pulp in a machine that works much like a big
kitchen blender. The pulp is screened and filtered to remove smaller contaminants. The
pulp then goes to a large vat where the ink separates from the paper fibers and fl oats
to the surface. The ink is skimmed off, dried and reused as ink or burned as boiler fuel.
The cleaned pulp is mixed with new wood fibers to be made into paper again.
Experts estimate the average office worker generates about 5 kg of wastepaper
per month. Every ton of paper that is recycled saves about 1.4 cu m (about 50 cu ft) of
landfill space. One ton of recycled paper saves 17 pulpwood trees (trees used to
produce paper).

1. The following things can be recycled, EXCEPT....


a. precious metals
b. broken glass
c. old newspapers
d. plastic spoons
e. fresh vegetables and fruits

2. Which of the following is NOT the benefit of recycling?


a. It costs much money for the process of recycling
b. It costs less to make new products.
c. It requires less energy.
d. It can reduce pollution.
e. It reduces the demand for high-pollution alternatives.

3. What is the third step of recycling paper products?


a. Collect and search for contaminants such as plastic bags and aluminium foil.
b. Mix the paper with hot water in a blender which turns it into pulp.
c. Screen and filter the pulp to remove smaller contaminants.
d. Put the pulp to a large vat to separate the ink from the paper fibres.
e. Mix the pulp with new wood fibres to be made into paper again.

Human body is made up of countless millions of cells. Food is needed to build


up new cells and replace the worn out cells. However, the food that we take must be
changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to the places where they are
needed. This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process takes place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken
up into small pieces by the action of teeth, mixed with saliva, a juice secreted by glands
in the mouth. Saliva contain digestive juices which moisten the food, so it can be
swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus (the food passage) into
stomach. Here, the food is
mixed with juices secreted by the cells in stomach for several hours. Then the food
enters the small intestine. All time the muscular walls of the intestine are squeezing,
mixing and moving the onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. These are soon absorbed by the
villi (microscopic branch projections from the intestine walls) and passed into the
bloodstream.

Venice is a city in northern Italy. It is the capital of region Veneto. Together with Padua, the
city is included in the Padua-Venice Metropolitan Area. Venice has been known as the “Queen
of the Adriatic”, “City of Water”, “City of Bridges”, and “The City of Light”. The city stretches
across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast
Italy.
Venice is world-famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by
about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are connected by
about 400 bridges. In the old center, the canals serve the function of roads, and every form of
transport is on water or on foot.
You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly used for
tourists, or for weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by
motorised waterbuses (“vaporetti”) which ply regular routes along the major canals and
between the city’s islands. The city also has many private boats. The only gondolas still in
common use by Venetians are the traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal
at certain points without bridges.
You can see the amusing city’s landmarks such as Piazza San Marco, Palazzo Contarini del
Bovolo, Saint Mark’s Cathedral or villas of the Veneto. The villas of the Veneto, rural residences
for nobles during the Republic, are one of the most interesting aspects of Venetian
countryside.
They are surrounded by elegant gardens, suitable for fashionable parties of high society. The
city is also well known for its beautiful and romantic view, especially at night.

SNAKES

Snakes are carnivores. Snakes are found on every continent of the world except Antarctica.
There are around 3000 different species of snake. Some sea snakes can breathe partially
through their skin, allowing for longer dives underwater. Anacondas are large, non-
venomous snakes found in South America that can reach over 5 m (16 ft) in length. Python
reticulates can grow over 8.7 m (28 ft) in length and are considered the longest snakes in the
world. Snakes don’t have eyelids. Snakes smell with their tongue. Snakes have flexible jaws
which allow them to eat prey bigger than their head! Snakes have internal ears but not
external ones. Snakes can’t bite food so have to swallow it whole. Snakes have a unique
anatomy which allows them to swallow and digest large prey. Snakes are covered in scales.
Snakeskin is smooth and dry. Snakes shed their skin a number of times a year in a process
that usually lasts a few days. Some species of snake, such as cobras and black mambas, use
venom to hunt and kill their prey. Pythons kill their prey by tightly wrapping around it and
suffocating it in a process called constriction.

correct term. While the two words are sometimes used interchangeably, a funnel
cloud is different, not in its make up, but in the fact that it does not touch the
ground. Another name that is often used to describe a tornado is twister, due to its
violent twisting motion.
- The tornado is one of the most unpredictable and destructive forces of nature, often
destroying everything in its path. A tornado is usually preceded by severe storms,
which may include lightning, high winds, and frequent hail. It can change course
without notice, and is usually accompanied by a roaring sound, or as some describe

Bees
Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role
in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000 known species
of bees in nine recognized families though many are undescribed and the actual number is
probably higher. They are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the
planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the
nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in
males and 12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have two pairs of wings,
the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or caste has
relatively short wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are wingless.
The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose workers are about 2.1 mm
(5/64") long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee whose females
can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae, or sweat bees, are the

For many years people believed that the cleverest animals after man were the
chimpanzees. Now, however, there is a proof that dolphins may be even cleverer than these
big apes. Although a dolphin lives in the sea, it is not a fish. It is a mammal. It is in many
ways, therefore, like a human being. Dolphins have a simple language. They are able to talk
to one another. It may be possible for man to learn how to talk to dolphins. But, this will not
be easy because dolphins cannot hear the kind of sounds man can make. If man wants to
talk to dolphins, therefore, he will have to make a third language which both he and the
dolphins can understand. Dolphins are also very friendly toward man. They often follow
ships. There are many stories about dolphins guiding ships through difficult and dangerous

Birds belong to a class of warm blooded vertebrate animals with feather covered bodies.
Next to the mammals, birds are the most important group of land-living vertebrates. All birds
have feathers, although in some types, particularly those that can not fly, the normal structure
of the feathers may be much modified and be downy, woolly, or straw like. The forelimbs of
birds are modified into wings. The bony part of the tail, except in the very earliest fossil birds,
is very short, and the visible tail is composed of feathers only. The teeth are absent except in
some fossil forms. As in mammals-the only other group of warm blooded animal-the
circulation is highly perfected so that there is no mixing of arterial and venous blood, but the
arrangement of veins and arteries by which this is accomplished, is different in the two groups.
Birds have keen hearing, although they have no external ears. The sense of sight also is very
keen, but the sense of smell is weak or lacking, except in a small few vultures and other birds.

11 Expressing Wish and Hope

I hope you had a good time at the party last night.


I haven’t looked outside yet. I hope it’s not raining.
I hope you have a great day.
I hope you’re not going to go to the movie without me.
I hope my boss will give me a promotion this year.
I hope my boss gives me a promotion this year.

76 | English Book
The last two examples are about the future. In English, we can use the future tense or
the present tense after the word “hope” to talk about the future. Both are natural.

On the other hand, “wish” is used to talk about situations that we desire, but which
are the opposite of the current reality or which are impossible. We can use wish +
past tense to talk about our situation right now. Even though we use the past tense,
we are NOT talking about the past. For example:

Dua contoh terakhir adalah tentang masa depan. Dalam bahasa Inggris, kita bisa
menggunakan tense masa depan atau present present tense setelah kata "harapan"
untuk membicarakan masa depan. Keduanya alami.
Di sisi lain, "keinginan" digunakan untuk membicarakan situasi yang kita inginkan,
tapi justru sebaliknya dari realitas saat ini atau yang tidak mungkin. Kita bisa
menggunakan keinginan + lampau untuk membicarakan situasi kita saat ini.
Meskipun kita menggunakan bentuk lampau, kita TIDAK berbicara tentang masa lalu.
Sebagai contoh:

I wish I had a car. (In reality, I don’t have a car now, but I want one).
I wish I didn’t have to work tomorrow. (In reality, I have to work tomorrow, but I
don’t want to).
I wish I were tall. (In reality, I’m short, but I want to be tall).
I wish I could play the piano. (In reality, I can’t play the piano, but I want to).

When we use wish + past perfect tense, we are talking about regrets we have from
the past. For example:

Bila kita menggunakan kata-kata yang menyenangkan, kita berbicara tentang


penyesalan yang kita miliki dari masa lalu. Sebagai contoh:

I wish I hadn’t gone to the party. (In reality, I went to the party, and now I regret it).
I wish I had studied harder in school. (In reality, I didn’t study hard in school, and
now I regret it).
I wish I hadn’t gotten drunk in front of my boss. (In reality, I got drunk in front of my
boss, and now I regret it).
I wish I had gone to bed earlier last night. (In reality, I didn’t go to bed early last
night, and now I regret it).

We can use wish + would + verb to talk about situations that often happen in our
lives that we don’t like. For example:

Kita bisa menggunakan wish + would + verb untuk membicarakan situasi yang
sering terjadi dalam hidup kita yang tidak kita sukai. Sebagai contoh:

77 | English Book
I wish my husband would help me clean the house. (In reality, my husband never helps
me clean the house, and I don’t like it).
I wish my children wouldn’t play their music so loudly. (In reality, my children
play their music very loudly, and I don’t like it).

We can also use wish + noun to talk about things that we desire for other people. In
these cases, the meaning of “wish” is more similar to “hope”. This way of using
“wish”, however, is much less common that the other ways. For example:

Kita juga bisa menggunakan wish + noun untuk membicarakan hal-hal yang kita
inginkan untuk orang lain. Dalam kasus ini, arti "harapan" lebih mirip dengan
"harapan". Cara menggunakan "keinginan" ini, bagaimanapun, adalah jauh lebih
umum bila dibandingkan dengan cara lainnya. Sebagai contoh:

We wish you a merry Christmas. (The meaning is: We hope you have a merry
Christmas).

Wish me luck on my exam. (The meaning is: Please hope that I have good luck on my
exam).

I wish you health and happiness. (The meaning is: I hope you have health and
happiness).

Finally, we can use wish + the infinitive form of a verb (this is means “to” + the base
form). In these cases, the meaning of “wish” has the same meaning as “want”, but it is
more formal. For example:

Akhirnya, kita bisa menggunakan wish + bentuk infinitif dari kata kerja (ini berarti
"menjadi" + bentuk dasar). Dalam kasus ini, arti "keinginan" memiliki arti yang sama
dengan "keinginan", tapi lebih formal. Sebagai contoh:

The difference between "wish" and "hope"

How to use "wish"

1. Wish is most commonly used in hypothetical (or imagined/unreal) situations:


Example:
I wish (that) you were here. (Unfortunately, you're not, and I miss you.)

78 | English Book
2. Sometimes wish is used in greeting and expressions of goodwill:
Example:
We wish you a "Merry Christmas."

How to use "hope"

1. Hope can also be used in expressions of goodwill, but the grammar is slightly
different:
Examples:
I hope (that) you have a Merry Christmas. (some time in the future)
I hope (that) you had a nice Birthday. (some time in the past)
2. Hope can be used to specify a desired outcome. For future hopes, the
possibilities remain open, but for past hopes, the outcome has usually been
determined already.
Examples:
I hope you can come to the party on Saturday.(future possibility)
I was hoping that you would come to the party.(but you didn't)
I had hoped to see you at the party on Saturday. (but I didn't)
