Bahan Uprak Bahasa Inggris, Kamus Online Bahasa Sunda, dan Masterpiece Hasil Uprak Seni Budaya

Halo. Saya mau ngucapin selamat dulu nih buat temen-temen yang udah berhasil bertahan menjalani Ujian Praktek sampai hari ini, semoga kita semua bisa berhasil dan mendapatkan nilai terbaik yaa amin :) Tadi Ujian Praktek di kelas saya (9J SMPN 2 Bandung)adalah Bahasa Sunda, pelajaran yang paling ngga saya bisa semasa hidup saya. Ngga tau kenapa kalo saya ngomong bahasa sunda, pasti suka terbata-bata deh -__- Maklum deh ya saya kan anak kuper, di rumah selalu pake Bahasa Indonesia jadi gabisa ngomong Bahasa Sunda. Saya juga blum ngapalin pidatonya sama sekali tadi tuh, baru punya saved page contoh naskah pidato bahasa sunda di Opera Mininya doang. Pendek banget tapi, tapi kalo panjang-panjang pasti saya ngga akan hafal. Kalo mau improvisasi juga saya ngga bisa, tau-tau yang keluar dari mulut saya malah bahasa alien hhh. Akhirnya saya coba menghafal naskah biantaranya dengan susah payah dan ngeprint di warnet dengan terburu-buru. Kelas 9A sampai 9E kebagian Ujian Praktek Bahasa Inggris hari ini, pelajaran yang bakal kelas saya hadepin besok. Yang saya tau sih Bahasa Inggris cuman ngebacain Narrative Text aja, kalo listeningnya saya ngga tau. Tadi saya udah manggil-manggil Taufik dengan sebutan "botak" tapi dia ngga nyahut. Padahal saya cuman mau nanya seputar Ujian Praktek Bahasa Inggris. Eh iya, ngomong-ngomong tepat setelah kelas saya bubar hari ini, saya langsung ke warnet untuk nyari Narrative Text buat Ujian Praktek besok. Saya udah dapet beberapa nih dari seorang blogger yang pinter bahasa inggris bernama Ardian Risqi. Narrative Text yang ada di blog beliau bener-bener bagus banget, lengkap dengan Orientation, Complication, dan Resolutionnya loh! :D Hmm saya sebetulnya pengen banget ngejiplak dari blog beliau, makanya saya minta ijin dulu ke beliau dan saya juga udah janji bakal nyantumin sumbernya dengan harapan permintaan saya dikabulkan (kaya yang apa aja :p). Semoga aja dikabulin yaa. Sekali-kali kan saya juga pengen ngejiplak punya orang dong, cape kan kalo blog saya terus yang dijiplak? :p Maaf ya buat Ardian Risqi, semoga amal dan ibadahmu diterima di sisi-Nya, amiiin. (ko kaya orang meninggal ya? hehe ngga deng maksud saya baik ko ngedoain :))

Oke, berikut contoh Narrative Text yang saya baca dari blognya Ardian Risqi.

"Monkey and Crocodile"

One day a monkey wanted to cross a river. He saw a crocodile in the river, so he asked the crocodile to take him across the other side. The crocodile told the monkey to jump on its back. Then the crocodile swam down the river.
Now, the crocodile was very hungry, so when it was in the middle of the river, it stopped and said to the monkey, ”Monkey, my father is very sick. He must eat the heart of the monkey. Then he will be strong again.”
The monkey thought for a while. Then he told the crocodile to swim back to the river bank.
“What’s for?” asked the crocodile.
“Because I didn’t bring my heart with me,” said the monkey. “I left it under the tree, near some coconuts.”
So, the crocodile turned around and swam back to the bank of the river. As soon as they reached the river bank, the monkey jumped off the crocodile’s back and climbed up to the top of a tree.
“Where is your heart?” asked the crocodile.
“You are foolish,” the monkey said to the crocodile. “Now I am free and you have nothing.”
The monkey told the crocodile not to try to fool him again. The crocodile swam away, hungry.

"Golden Eggs"

Long time ago a remote village, in central China was inhabited mainly with farmers and hunters.

One day, a poor farmer lost his entire livestock to flood. He prayed hard to God for help or his family would die of starvation.

Few days later, an old man with long grey beard, passed by his house took pity on him. He gave him a goose and said “ I don’t have any expensive thing to give you and hope this goose will help you to ease your hardship.”

A week later to almost surprise the farmer found and egg in his yard. This was no ordinary egg. It was a golden egg. He was suddenly overcome with joy.

Thereafter, his livelihood had rapidly improved but the farmer had forgotten his earlier hardship. He became lazy, arrogant and spendthrift.

Strangely, the goose only laid one golden egg every six months. The greedy farmer lost his patient and slaughtered his goose thinking there were plenty of golden eggs inside its stomach.

Though he very much regretted for his foolishness, it’s already too late.

"The Princess and The Pea"

There once was a prince who wanted to marry a princess, but it had to be real princess. So he went all over the world looking for a real princess. Everywhere he met young ladies told him they were real princess, but could never be completely sure that this was true. There was always something about them that did not seem quite right. And so, after along time, the prince went back home to his parents and was very sad.

One evening there was a terrible storm. It rained heavily and there was thunder and lightning in the sky above the royal castle. Then there was a knock at the castle gate. The old king went out to see who it could be.

A princess was standing outside the gate. The rain ran down over her hair and clothes and into her shoes. She told the king that she was a real princess, and he asked her to come inside.

“Well, said the old queen. We’ll soon find out if that is true. She went into the guest bedroom and took the mattress and blanket of the bed. Then she put a little green pea on the bed. She put twenty mattress on top of the pea, and then twenty mattress on top of the pea, and then twenty blankets on top of the mattress. This was where the princess was going to spend the night.

The next morning the queen asked the princess how she had slept.

“oh, it was terrible” answered the princess. Í didn’t close my eyes all night. I don’t know what was in my bed, but I lay on something hard, and now I am black and blue all over. It was quite a terrible night.”

Now, the king, the queen and the prince could be sure that this was a real princess she had felt the little pea trough twenty mattresses and twenty blankets. Only a real princess will be able to do that.

So the prince married the princess and the pea was put in a museum for everyone to see, unless someone has taken it, it’s still there today.
