D. READING


Text 1

    Since 1981, the Humber Bridge in England has been the world's longest-span (1,410 meters) bridge. Like most other long-span bridges, it is a suspension bridge. In a suspension bridge, the bridge deck hangs, or is suspended, from thick steel cables. They are made of tens of thousands of kilometers of thin steel wires bound together.

     The cables go up and over tall towers on either side of the gap to be spanned. They are anchored firmly at each end. In the largest suspension bridges, the towers have to be built slightly out of parallel to allow for the curve of the Earth!

    The construction of the Jakarta metropolitan area's new 21-kilometer-long Antasari-Depok-Bogor toll road kicked off on Thursday as the government boosted efforts to support the capital city's expansion.

    The toll road connection will give the public an alternative access to ease congestion on Jl. Sawangan and Jl. Margonda in Depok, which is the only major route to Jakarta from Depok. "The Antasari-Depok toll road is an important project as it is part of the ring and radial road system in Jakarta", Public Works Ministry Director General of Highways Djoko Murjanto said during the launch.

Pembahasan

"Do you think that reported speech is commonly found in texts like Text 2? Why do you think so?" berarti "Menurut kamu apakahkalimat tidak langsung (reported speech) sering digunakan pada teks seperi teks 2? Mengapa demikian?". Kalimat tidak langsung (reported speech) adalah kalimat yang digunakan untuk menyampaikan kembali apa yang orang lain katakan. Contoh: "She told me that she would graduate from the university the following year". Kalimat jenis ini banyak digunakan pada teks "news item" seperti pada teks 2 , karena merupakan berita yang banyak mengutip kalimat dari para narasumber. Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah Yes, I do. Because news item text is news that quotes a lot of sentences from the sources.
