POURQUOI TALES
“Why
does the on go on shining?”
“Why do the eyes of mine cry?”
“Why do the birds keep on singing?”
“Why do chameleons change color?”
“Why is the ocean blue?”
People especially children are naturally
anxious about the wonders of nature. To feed this interest in the natural world
– we can explain it with pour quoi tales! Pour quoi [por-kwa] means “why” in French.
Pourquoi tales are old legends told us to explain why certain events happened.
Tales are often start in the past,e.g.:
A long time ago…and end when the explanation is complete. Pourquoi tales are
most often concerned with animal and the natural world.

One evening, Maura disguised herself and went to the camp
of the three sheiks. As they were about to have dinner, Maura asked them for
something to eat. The first gave her some left over food. The second Sheikh
gave her some unappetizing camel’s tail. The third sheik, who was called Hakim,
offered her some of the most tender and tasty meat. After dinner, the disguised
queen left the sheik’s camp.
The following day, the queen invited the three sheiks to
dinner at her palace. She ordered her servant to give each one exactly what
they had given her the evening before. Hakim, who received a plate of delicious
meat, refused to eat it if the other two sheiks could not share it with him.
This Sheik Hakim’s act finally convinced Queen Maura that
he was the man for her. “Without question, Hakim is the most generous of you”
she announced her choice to the sheiks. “So it is Hakim I will marry”.

Once upon time, there was a handsome man. His name was

surprised to find out that the fish could talk. The fish begged him to set it
free.
Batara Guru could not bear it. He made the fish free. As
soon as it was free, the fish changed into a very beautiful woman. She
attracted Batara Guru so much. He felt in love with that fish-woman. The woman
wanted to marry with him and said that Batara Guru had to keep the secret which
she had been a fish. Batara Guru agreed and promised that he would never tell
anybody about it.
They were married happily. They had two daughters. One
day Batara Guru got very angry with his daughter. He could not control his mad.
He shouted angrily and got the word of fish to his daughters. The daughters
were crying. They found their mother and talked her about it.
The mother was very annoyed. Batara Guru broke his
promise. The mother was shouting angrily. Then the earth began to shake.
Volcanoes started to erupt. The earth formed a very big hole. People believed
that the big hole became a lake. Then this lake is known as Toba Lake.

Once
upon a time there lived as neighbors, a bear and a rabbit. The rabbit was a
good shot and the bear, being very clumsy, could not use an arrow to a good
advantage.
2.
However,
the bear was so greedy and evil that he didn’t allow the rabbit to get any of
the meat. The poor rabbit could not even taste the blood from the butchering,
as the bear would throw earth on the blood and dry it up. The poor rabbit would
have to go home hungry after his hard day’s work.
3.
The
bear was very unkind to the rabbit. Every morning, the bear would call over to
the rabbit and ask the rabbit to take his bow and arrows and come with the bear
to the other side of the hill.
4. The bear was the father of five children. The
youngest boy was very kind to the rabbit. Knowing that the youngest boy was a
very hearty eater, the mother bear always gave him an extra large piece of
meat. Instead of eating this extra meat, the youngest bear would take the meat
outside and pretend to play ball with it, kicking it toward the rabbit's house,
and when he got close to the door he would give the meat such a great kick that
it would fly into the rabbit's house. In this way the poor rabbit would get his
meal unknown to the papa bear.
5.
The
rabbit, fearing to arouse the bear’s anger by refusing, consented and went with
the bear. The rabbit shot enough buffalo to satisfy the bear’s family. Indeed,
he shot and killed so many that there was lots of meat left after the bear and
his family had loaded themselves and packed all they could carry home.

Choose the
answer for the following questions!
Elephants, Dog
and Mice
I
have never known a dog and an elephant make friends. Elephants will eventually
become accustomed to certain dogs in camps, and dogs learn not to bark at them
and always to keep out of reach of the slash of a trunk or the kick of a leg.
The hatred of elephants for dogs cannot easily be explained. It is possible
that they are afraid of dogs biting their trunks, though I do not think such a
thing ever happened. It has occurred to me that it might be an instinctive
dread of hydrophobia, which is the dread of everyone who keeps a dog in camp,
Burman and European Assistant alike.
Nevertheless practically every European
Assistant keeps a dog and I have almost always had one myself. The elephants
hate them and one is always losing one's dog, owing to leopard, tiger, bear and
snakes. The tragedies of lost dogs are often an Assistant's first experience of
real grief.
It
is easy to ask, why, under such conditions, do you keep a dog? But I know of no
other existence where a dog is so necessary as a companion to share every
moment of one's life and to drive away loneliness.
So
far as I know, elephants don't worry about snakes, though the 'ooziest'
(drivers) believe that a number of elephants calves die of snake-bite. I have
had this reported to me many times but in no instance could I find any proof.
The Burmans believe that the hairs of an elephant's tail pull out very easily
after it has been bitten by a snake. But, as this has also to be proved, I was
never able to accept it as conclusive evidence that an elephant had been killed
by snake-bite.
There
is a widespread belief that an elephant is really terrified of a mouse. The
idea makes an obvious appeal to the human love of paradox. But, if it is true,
I can see no reason for it. It certainly cannot be because the elephant is
afraid of the mouse getting inside his trunk, since, with one snort; he could eject
it like a cork from a popgun. However, most fears are imaginary and there is no
reason why elephants should be immune from such terrors.

Activity 3
Listen to the short
monologue below and answer the questions in activity 4!
This
is the VOA Special English Education Report.
March
Madness is the name for the busy championship season in American college
basketball. But March also means another kind of madness -- the nervous wait
for admissions letters from colleges and universities.
This
week in our Foreign Student Series, we jump ahead to the subject of where to
live. Housing policies differ from school to school. Some schools have limited
housing or none at all.
Dormitory
buildings might house a small number of students or many hundreds. Some dorms
have suites. A suite has several bedrooms, a common area and a bathroom. Other
dorms have rooms along a common hallway. Two, three or four students might
share a room.
|
A dormitory at the University of South Carolina in Columbia
|
Males
and females often live on different floors of the same building. Or they might
live on the same floor, or in some cases even share a suite if permitted. But
single-sex housing is usually also available.
Different
groups and organizations such as fraternities and sororities might have their
own houses where their members live. And there is often housing for married
students.
Some
dorms are nice, others are not so nice. But many students say they like the
chance to make friends and be near their classes.
Cost
is another consideration. Dorms can cost less than off-campus housing. But
school-owned housing can also cost more, though the price may include meals.
Here
are some questions to ask before making a decision: How much privacy can a
student expect? Will the school provide a single room if a student requests
one? Will the school provide a special diet if a student needs one? And are any
dorms open all year so international students can have a place to stay during
long vacations?
Kirsten
Kennedy, housing director at the University of South Carolina in Columbia, says
all first-year undergraduates there have to live in a dorm. After that, they
are free to seek other housing.
Students
can apply to become resident assistants after living in the dorms for a year.
International students can also apply to become resident assistants after a
year in the dorms.
Working
as a resident assistant in student housing is one way to help finance an
education. At many schools, RAs earn money as well as get their room and meals
for free or at a reduced price.
And
that's the VOA Special English Education Report, written by Nancy Steinbach.

feet. Its body length is 30 to 45 cm and covered with a thick and woolly layer
of fur. Its bill is detecting prey and stirring up mud. Platypus' eyes and head
are small. It has no ears but has ability to sense sound and light.

Activity 1
Having
breakfast is necessary for us.
Firstly,
breakfast is the most important meal of
the day. A healthy breakfast provides us with nutritious energy to start the
day and helps us to control the urge to snack on unhealthy food full of sugar
and calories. It also helps children to maintain a healthy body weight. The
American Dietetic Association (ADA) has found that children who eat a healthy
breakfast maintain a healthy weight better than children who skip breakfast.
They are less likely to overeat later in the day and feel full longer.
Secondly,
breakfast helps us feel good. Maybe you often get morning stomachaches if you
miss breakfast. These aches are hunger pangs.
Thirdly, breakfast
fuels the body with nutrients that you may not be able to make up with other
meals. By having breakfast, we can acquire sufficient nutrition and energy to
support a day’s works and studies.
Finally,
breakfast gets us ready to learn. The surgeon general has found that kids not
only learn better after eating breakfast, but they are more productive and get
more done in the morning too.
In conclusion,
breakfast is good for us.
1.
How can breakfast help us keep a healthy body weight?

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 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.
In
conclusion, cars should be banned from the city for the reasons listed.

Before we are going to smoke, it is
better to look at the fact. About 50 thousands people die every year in Britain
as direct result of smoking. This is seven times as many as die in road
accidents. Nearly a quarter of smokers die because of diseases caused by
smoking.
Ninety percent of lung cancers are
caused by smoking. If we smoke five cigarettes a day, we are six times more
likely to die of lung cancer than a non smoker. If we smoke twenty cigarettes a
day, the risk is nineteen greater. Ninety five percent of people who suffer of
bronchitis are people who are smoking. Smokers are two and half times more
likely to die of heart disease than non smokers.
Additionally, children of smoker are
more likely to develop bronchitis and pneumonia. In one hour in smoky room, non
smoker breathes as much as substance causing cancer as if he had smoked fifteen
cigarettes.
Smoking is really good for tobacco
companies because they do make much money from smoking habit. Smoking however
is not good for every body else.

2. Type of
Sentences
Before discussing the type of sentences, it is better to know first
independent and dependent clause.
Independent clause is a clause which can stand alone as a sentence and
it ha a complete meaning (it consist of at least subject and predicate). While,
dependent clause is a clause which can’t stand alone as a sentence.
Structurally, English sentences can be classified four different ways;
a) Simple sentence is a sentence with one independent
clause and no dependent clauses.
e.g.: my mother is
cooking the fried rice with me.
S P O adv.
b) Compound sentence is a sentence with multiple
independent clauses but no dependent clauses. This type needs coordinate
conjunction; for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so.
e.g.: she is
absent for it is
raining now.
S
P adv. for S
P adv
c) Complex sentence is a sentence with one
independent clause and at least one dependent clause. This type needs
subordinate conjunction; after, although, as soon as, because, before, since,
where, when, until, while, etc.
e.g.: Lampung where I was born is
hot.
S where
S adv. P adj.
d) Compound-Complex sentence is a sentence with
multiple independent clauses and at least one dependent clause.
e.g.: the dog lived
in the backyard, but the
cat, who knew he was superior, lived
S P adv. but S, DC P
in the house.
adv.
3. Emotive
and Evaluative language
Emotive
language adds strong
description to the facts and so helps to create an extremely subjective tone of
the text. Emotive language plays a role in persuading the reader toward the
writer’s opinion. Another way to persuade people agree with the writer’s
opinion is by using Evaluative language.
Pay attention to the underlined words below:
1.
It
is true that the sun rises
in the east
2.
It
is important to pay
attention to his warnings
3.
There’s
no doubt that smoking is
very dangerous for our health
4.
I
strongly believe that he wants
to use you
5.
It
is believed that a comet
is like a star
6.
It
is obvious that English is an
international language
7.
It
is clear that the man is
not guilty in this case
Take Home Assignment
A. Choose the answer for the following questions!
Dust Bin
To improve comfort and cleanliness at
our school, a number of dust bins should be increased.
When we look at classrooms, school
corridors and school yard, there are paper mineral water cups, straws, and
napkins here and there. The condition of uncleanliness and discomfort
really hinders learning and teaching environment. Litters thrown carelessly
cause disease, especially empty plastic cup or glasses. They can be
filled out with water coming from the rain. This can be placed for dengue
mosquitoes to spread out. Besides, these rubbish can deteriorate the
scene. Well painted wall and green school yard do not mean anything
litters are scattered everywhere.
Anyway I notice that most of the
students in our school have responsibilities for the school environment.
They put their litters on the proper places. But some are not diligent
enough to find the dust bins. The numbers of dust binds in our schools
are not enough. Ore dust bins should be put beside each of steps,
outside of the classrooms, and some more also the corridors. Probably one
dust bin should be in every ten meters. So when students want to throw
away their litters, they can find the dust bins easily.
When school is equipped with sufficient
dust bins, we do not have problems of freak and discomfort any more. Our
school will be very clean and become a nice place to study.
1. What
is the writer’s intention? To ….. Readers to do something good.
a. inform
b. explain
c. describe
d. entertain
e. persuade
2. According
to the writer, more dust bins….. in every ten meters.
a. should
be decorated
b. should
be painted
c. should
be placed
d. are
unnecessary
e. are
not required
3. What
is the writer’s argument on a sufficient number of dust bins?
a. They
can prevent litters
b. They
can save janitor’s energy
c. Students
are asked to clean them
d. They
make school environment neat
e. Students
can throw garbage away easily
4. What
is the writer’s suggestion?
a. To
buy more dustbins
b. To
hire more gardeners
c. To
use dustbins efficiently
d. To
ask parents to give more dustbins
e. To
ask students to clean the school yard
Learning English
Learning English through music and songs
can be very enjoyable. You can mix pleasure with learning when you listen to a
song and exploit the song as a means to your English progress. Some underlying
reason can be drawn to support the idea why we use songs in language learning.
Firstly, “the song stuck in my head”
Phenomenon (the echoing in our minds of the last song we heard after leaving a
restaurant, shopping malls, etc) can be both enjoyable and sometimes unnerving.
This phenomenon also seems to reinforce the idea that songs work on our
short-and-long term memory.
Secondly, songs in general also use
simple conversational language, with a lot of repetition, which is just what
many learners look for sample text. The fact that they are effective makes them
many times more motivating than other text. Although usually simple, some songs
can be quite complex syntactically, lexically and poetically, and can be
analyzed in the same way as any other literary sample.
Furthermore, song can be appropriated by
listener for their own purpose. Most pop songs and probably many other types don’t
have precise people, place or time reference.
In addition, songs are relaxing. They
provide variety and fun, and encourage harmony within oneself and within one
group. Little wonder they are important tools in sustaining culture, religion,
patriotism and yeas, even revolution.
Last but not least, there are many
learning activities we can do with songs such as studying grammar, practicing
selective listening comprehension, translating songs, learning vocabulary,
spelling and culture.
From the elaboration above, it can be
concluded that learning through music and songs, learning English can be
enjoyable and fun.

Polar bear are adapted to life in the polar region, around the North Pole. Their bodies have special features that work particularly well in the polar seas.
For instance, they have sharp and powerful claws for catching their food, which is a mainly seal. In their own environment, they are excellent hunter; but if they had to live on the birds and squirrels in other places, they would die.
The science that studies the way that different forms of life are adapted to their particular environment is called ecology.
The first lesson of ecology is that all life in an environment depends on other forms of life. Polar bears depend on seals, which can live only where they do because they depend on particular kinds of fish which are found in the Arctic seas.
There are certain important cycles in nature that show plants and animals depend on each other: for example, the nitrogen cycles. Plants take nitrogen compounds from the soil and turn them into protein.
Animals eat these proteins and return some of them to the soil as waste products and the rest when they die.
Another cycle is the oxygen cycle. When we breathe, we take in oxygen, and give out carbon dioxide. Plants absorb it to make sugar compounds, and in the process oxygen is produced and released to the atmosphere.
An ideal ecological system, living things exist in balance. However, particularly where man interferes, a species may become too successful and abundant, and the balance is destroyed. For instance, the use of pesticides to kill a particular plan pest may also kill predatory insects and even birds, and thus other pests are allowed to increase. Therefore, great care is needed in the use of pesticides.
Through ecology we try to restore the balance in the ecological system, and thus save the world from devastation

A planet is a body in space that revolves
around a star. There are nine planets in our solar system, and these nine
planets travel around the sun. The names of the planets are Mercury, Venus,
Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. Planets travel in
orbit, around the stars. All of the planets of the solar system revolve ill
elliptical orbits. In other Words, their orbits are like large, flat circles.
The time that it takes a planet to make one revolution around the sun is called
a year.
The Greeks were the first people
to recognize and give names to some of the planets. The word planet comes from
a Greek word meaning wanderer. If a person
wanders, tills means that he goes from one place to another and does not have a
