14 Speaking Common Expression In English, there are two ways of introducing one self. The first one is formal way. This way of speaking is done when you are interacting with new people in seminars, business, offices, etc. The other one is informal way. It is used when you talk with people younger than you or new people you meet in a bus, supermarket, beach, etc.

From the dialogues above, you can see the different expressions used in formal and informal contexts, especially the ones used to start and to end the conversations. These expressions are called greeting and leave taking. When you begin talking and stop talking with someone, you must use these expressions. Learn more about expressions of greeting and leave taking from the table below.

Speaking 15 The table below shows expressions used when we do self- introduction and whether it sounds more formal or less.

16 Speaking Additionally, we sometimes do introduction in our speech, in front of some audience or some friends. In this case, some starting phrases normally added, such as: 1. I’d like to introduce my self 2. Allow me to introduce my self 3. Let me introduce my self 4. I want to introduce my self

Apart from mentioning your name, you can also include some personal details about yourself when doing self introduction. It depends on the flow of the conversation or situations. As we found in the previous dialogues, there are several important phrases to ask questions and to learn more about each other, including: Where are you from? I’m from... (city, state, or country) Are you... (Spanish, American, German, etc.) Are you ... (a student, a visitor, etc.)

Speaking 17 Look at some more examples below. Hi, I’m Maharani.You can call me Rani. I am a new student at this school Hello, I am Fedira. My nick name is Peppy. I just moved from Pontianak. Hi, I’m Rossa. I’m originally from Malang, East Java.

Common Expression We sometimes want to introduce a friend or a family member to the others. Generally, similar to introducing self, in introducing others we also face two situations, which are formal and informal contexts.

When you meet someone for the first time, it is common to greet them by asking, “How do you do?” It is also customary to respond in kind, as shown in the previous dialogues.

The question ‘How do you do’ is only a formality. In other

Speaking 27 words, the question does not need to be answered. Rather, it is a standard phrase used when meeting someone for the first time. A variation is also “It’s a pleasure to meet you” or “Pleased to meet you.”

In informal situations, especially in North America, introductions are also made simply saying, “This is (name).” It is also common to just say “Hi” or “Hello” as a response in this informal setting.

There are a number of phrases that are commonly used to introduce someone to the other(s):

(name), I don’t think you’ve met (name).

I don’t think you know (name)

May I introduce you to (name)

(name), do you know (name)?

(name), I’d like you to meet (name)

When introducing others, we often want to talk about some general information about them, such as where they are from, what they do, what their hobbies are, etc. When introduced, it is also polite to respond by asking some general questions, too.

106 Speaking Common Expression

From the listening sections and some examples given above, it is expected that you have realised different ways of making a request and respond to it in the context of a restaurant. You might also have realised that the type of the restaurant can determine the degree of formality in your conversation with the staff. The fast food restaurant or a café tend to be friendlier, therefore you can speak less formally. On the other hand, the fine dining restaurant usually keeps everything formal. It is wise to speak formal to the staffs as well. Generally, in making a request you can say: - Will/ Would/ Can/ Could you please …? - Do you mind …? - Do you think you could …? - Do you think it would be possible to …? - Would it be possible for you to …? - Would you be kind enough to …? - Would you mind …? - Can/ Could you … for me, please? - I’d appreciate it if you could …. To respond to the request, you might accept or refuse it. To accept the request, you can say: - Sure, I’d be glad to …. - I’d be happy to …

Speaking 107 - Sure. Just a moment. - No problem. - Of course. - Certainly. - All right. Meanwhile, when you want to refuse the request, you can say: - I’m sorry, I can’t. - I’m sorry, but …. - I’d loved to, but …. - Sorry to say that …. - It sounds great, but …. Specifically, when making a request to choose and order food or drink, you can say: - Can/ May I get a …. - I’d like to have a …. - Get me a …, please. To make a reservation, you can say: - I’d like to make a reservation. - I need to make a reservation. - Can I make a reservation for two people on Saturday night? - Could you help me with a reservation, please? In order to be seated at a restaurant, you can simply say the number of people in your group when you come without reservation. For example, you can say“A table for three, please.” Meanwhile, you need to tell the detail of your reservation if

108 Speaking you have made one. You can say: - We have a dinner reservation for … at … under the name …. - Our reservation is under the name … at … for … people. - I am … and I made a reservation for … people at …. Finally, there are ways to pay for your order. In a fast food restaurant or a café where you order and pay at the till or checkout counter, you simply ask “How Much is it?” or “How much are they?” The things get a little complicated at a fine dining restaurant. You need to request a bill or check first. You can say“Can / May I have the bill, please?”; “I’m ready for my bill.” or “We have finished with our meal. We’d like to pay.” For the use of either cash or card, you can refer to the previous unit. Last but not least, do not forget to say “Thank you”. You can also add some more good comments if you like the food and the services.

Summary

In making a request and responding to it, there are many ways that can be used. The degree of formality will also be different according who we are talking to. In the context of a restaurant, we usually converse in making requests while the staff respond to them. Different restaurant will use different style and therefore determine the degree of formality of our speech. There are some expressions involved in the conversation, such as choosing and ordering food and drink, making a reservation, asking to be seated at a restaurant, paying and saying thank you.

Common Expression

As it was discussed in the beginning of the unit, the advancement of technology has enabled us to access our bank account online, or at least via ATM. Nevertheless, there are still many things to do directly at the bank. Here are some basic expressions to be used at the bank.

124 Speaking First, just like any other conversation, we need to greet the staff (either a customer service officer, a teller or a receptionist). Similar to other context, you can start with “Good morning/ afternoon.” Then, either you or the staff can break the ice by asking “How are you today?” or “How are you doing?” The most important thing to do is to state your purpose of coming, such as: - I would like to/ I want to open a bank account. - I would like to/ I want to make a deposit. - I would like to/ I want to make a withdrawal. - I would like to/ I want to transfer some money. - I would like to/ I want to apply for a credit card. - I would like to/ I want to take out a loan/ mortgage.

Only the first four purposes are discussed in this unit since they are quiet common to do daily. Next, setting up a bank account. To open a bank account, you can say: - I would like to open a bank account. - I need to open a bank account. - I want to open a bank account.

Make sure you know the type of account you would like to open and its minimum deposit. A checking or current account is an account which is used generally on which you can write check or withdraw money freely through ATM/Debit card. A

Speaking 125 saving account bears interest so you can only withdraw money under certain limitation. At the end you will get your account number. After opening an account, you will need to make a deposit. You can simply say: - I would like to deposit some money. - I need to make a deposit. - I want to make a deposit today.

Furthermore, you need to state your account number, the amount of money that you plan to deposit and the type of your account to which you are depositing. Sometimes, you also need to make a withdrawal. You can say: - I would like to make a withdrawal. - I need to make a withdrawal. - I want to withdraw some money.

This time, you need to state your account number, the amount of money you are going to take out and also the type of your account from which you are taking. Finally, in transferring money, you need to say your purpose, the amount of money you are transferring, the type of account you are taking from and the destination of the transfer. This time you need both account numbers. To transfer some money overseas, you will need to know the bank identifier code (BIC) or SWIFT ID. For this, you can say:

126 Speaking - I would like to transfer some money. - I need to make a transfer. - I want to/ need to transfer some money. Overall, simply remember different ways of saying intentions followed by your own purpose of going to the bank.

Let's Make a Conversation

Danny : I love playing musical instruments like piano or guitar. I will be joining a musical concert this coming September.

Diana : I have been quite into singing since I was a kid but I do it every once in a while now. But, being in the final year of school have been occupied me with endless assignments, projects and exam preparation. As you know, we also need to find a university and prepare ourselves for the entrance exam. Susan : That’s true. Anyway, what kinds of music genre are you into?

Speaking 169 Diana : I am really into pop songs. I also write some originals or compose my own melody and lyric. Susan : You’re such a gifted person. Did you take some sort of vocal class or something? Diana : My mum teaches me how to sing. She is my vocal coach for so many years. She used to sing in an opera so when she retired, she decided to open a singing school. Do you want to join? Susan : You have got to be talented. Unfortunately, I have no talent like that. Diana : Everyone has their own talent, I think. You are such a good dancer, right? I was so blown away by your performance on the last school concert. Susan : Thank you.

Nadya is joining the conversation. Nadya : What are you talking about? Susan : We’re talking about our hobby. Are there any hobbies you do? Nadya : Sure! If I have time, I will go jogging or taking a walk. It’s not only good for our health but also for my emotion.

170 Speaking Susan : Really? Why so? Nadya : I’m a little ashamed to tell this but jogging or simply walking gives me time to talk to myself. Susan : Do you talk to yourself? Nadya : Yes, I think we all need this kind of ruminating session for ourselves. We think we know who we are until we talk to ourselves. I can sort of understand what my problems are and basically what I want for my life. Susan : Wow, I never thought about that but I heard that it’s good for our mental health. Moreover, you do it while jogging or walking. I think, I’m gonna try that. Nadya : Just make sure that your voice volume is not audible to people around you. They are all laughing as they think that talking in public can attract attention from people around. Diana : I don’t know if I will do that but I find singing is also a way for me to release my emotion. I’d better sing in front in public and choose songs that represent my feeling. Nadya : I wish I had a good voice like you. Susan : Me too.

Speaking 171 Dialogue 3 Talk about your hobbies in detail Adi and Eka are working in the same office. Adi is surprised when he saw a unique looking album with stamps picture on the cover.

Adi : Wow, they are from different countries. I’m just so surprised as no one really exchanges physical letters nowadays, right? Why do you collect many stamps? Isn’t it hard to find these stamps? Eka : Because I like to see the unique pictures of the stamps. I have been collecting since I was in primary school. It’s not hard as I can always go to the post office to find the latest prints. However, I realize that this hobby has been affected by the presence of technology like emails and Whatsapp or Black Berry messengers. People can communicate with technology now. Adi : Yes, that’s such an irony. Did you make a theme for each page? It looks so beautiful that the color from each stamp can complement each other?

172 Speaking Eka : Yes, I categorized them into a theme like some stamps were printed to commemorate a sport event like SEA Games, Asian Games or Olympic. The easiest way is to group them based on the country origin. It’s just so rewarding to see these pictures. That’s why, I bring this album to the office. What is your hobby? Adi : Actually, we have quite similar hobby but I’m collecting different thing. Eka : What is that? Adi : My hobby is collecting action figures like super heroes. Eka : Your hobby is more expensive than mine. Adi : Some figures are actually expensive as they are not always available in Indonesian market so I need to go to Japan or Singapore to buy them. The flight to go there is what makes it expensive. Eka : What is your favorite action figure? Adi : The Black Spiderman. It’s limited and it was hard to find it anywhere but then I went to a black market in Hongkong and found the original figure. The struggle to find it is what makes it really a special story.

Speaking 173 two different provinces. During the program, both of them stay in the same hotel room. Therefore, they spend most of the activities such having breakfast and lunch together.

Eri : I love jazz and basically classical pop or Rnb music. The rhythm can be really soothing and it takes my mind off my work. What is your favorite music genre? Capo : Dangdut.

174 Speaking Eri : I don’t know that dangdut is divided to different types of genre. That is interesting! Capo : Sure, I like classical dangdut because it is richer in its tone and cengkok. It’s a special run or twists one produces in his way of singing dangdut. Rhoma Irama or Rita Sugiarto is classical dangdut singers. The lyrics are also very relatable to many Indonesian way of life.

UNIT 1

Weekend Activity Task 1

1. I watched a movie called The Predator in Sun Plaza last weekend 2. I did enjoy the movie because it is a combination of fantasy, science-fiction, horror and thriller. It was an exciting and scary cinematic experience. 3. I’m going to go to Surabaya by train this coming Saturday 4. I think Bali is great choice to spend weekend holidays. I always dream to visit Ubud and Canggu. Those two places must be a good balance of serenity and fancy weekend getaway. 5. I think Bali is a worth visiting place but it is said to be a little more expensive compared to other places in Indonesia. However, the Garuda Wisnu Kencana statue is the reason why I want to visit Bali. I heard it is the third biggest statue in the world. It must be looking really majestic to witness from a close proximity.

210 Speaking 6. In Bali, you can choose a lot of extreme and adventurous alternatives for your weekend. You can do river rafting in Ubud or try surfing in Canggu. However, if it is your first time in Ubud, visiting Monkey Forest is a must for its unique and adventurous atmosphere.

Task 2

A. Work and Rest I never work or study on the weekend Sometimes, I go to the supermarket or go shopping in a department store However, I often sleep until noon just to enjoy my Sunday. I usually have no plans on weekends. I choose to stay homes and just relax. B. Sport and Exercise I never go the gym or swimming on the weekend. I’m not really a sport person but I always want to change that because doing exercise is good for our heal and fitness However, I always go for a long walk in the late afternoon. Walking is also a good way of exercising and it is also cheap compared to the gym and swimming option. If I have a partner or friends to play a sport, I usually will go for a Badminton match Even though I am not a sport person, I am quite an avid fan of sport like Badminton and Footbal particularly watching those matches regularly on TV.

Speaking 211 C. Social Life I often go to a music concert if there is one in my city. I love the atmosphere. The latest concert I watched was Sheila On Seven. The band is one the legends in Indonesian music scene with numerous hits and topped the charts. I and my family will also see some of our relatives. My favorite is surely visiting my grandmother and aunt’s house because they are good cook and always serve delicious cakes and food. Sometimes, we also have a house party and barbecue in the backyard of my house. My sister often asks me to go to some of her friends’ wedding. I actually feel a little reluctant because I know no one in the reception. However, the food variety has always been amazing and enticing. D. Culture I usually go to a movie theater if there is a good film I never go to a museum or gallery on the weekend. I’m not really an artsy person. My friends are also not really into culture and museum. We sometimes go to the bookstore and spend hours in the comics’ section. E. Going Away for the Weekend I never go to the beach in the weekends just because it’s too far from the place we live in If the weekend is quite long especially when Monday is a national holiday, my family often book tickets to Malaysia

212 Speaking or Singapore. The countries are good for a short trip and It’s not that far from Medan.

Task 3 Your dad : So, what are we going to do this weekend while Tsubasa is here?

You : Because Tsubasa loves to taste different kinds of food; we can go to Lontong Kak Sri in the morning for the breakfast, Lembur Kuring restaurant for our lunch after the museum visit. Going to Lapangan Benteng for snacks and traditional food bazaar the afternoon and we can end the culinary trip in Seafood 22 restaurant for the Seafood dinner.

Although I have read some information from the books and blogs on the internet, seeing the visuals will be a different experience. I can’t wait to go with our family this weekend. Thank you so much for planning this weekend trip.

Task 4 Card 1 1. I usually go to the mall or department store. However, going to a sneakers store is my favorite thing to do. 2. I try to balance between both so sometimes I will spend with family by seeing our relatives or having lunch in a restaurant. However, these past weekends, I spend most of them with my friends as we also use our time to discuss

214 Speaking about our group presentation. 3. I think it depends on the preferences of people living in the city. Some of them might feel that going to the mall is a convenient option to do. However, some of them would also feel bored with the options available in the city and decided to spend their weekend in the country side like Brastagi in Medan or perhaps Puncak for Jakartans. 4. I don’t think so. Reading for pleasure on weekends has always been my favorite thing to do. 5. As it is a small town, most people choose to just stay home and spend their weekend with their family.

Card 2 1. I went to see my grandfather who is sick in a hospital 2. I was so sad because he wasn’t able to speak. He looked so weak and I plan to visit him again after school. 3. If you have a friend who will visit the city, going to the Birds’ Park can be an option. 4. Sometimes, I choose to stay home at the weekends even if my friends ask me to go with them. I feel tired after being in a tight schedule. Studying and going to the after school tutor can be really tiring activity to do during the weekdays. 5. I think it was still the same thing. However, one of my favorite things to do when I was still a kind was going to an amusement park with my parents. I still am missing

Speaking 215 my excitement to the Ferris wheel and Merry Go round. I would possibly go there again on the coming weekends.

Card 3 1. I will go to Water Park this weekend 2. Going to a water park is actually a new thing for me. This place is also just opened few days ago and they have many exciting attractions like a man made wave and also a huge swimming pool. 3. I think some people can still do their work on the weekends but as for me, I prefer being relaxed and enjoying every second of it like going to a saloon or spa. 4. It depends on the mood as well. We still need to gather with friends even though we have probably seen each other on daily basis at school. Being in a family for some people can be really tense because they can’t really say things they can say to their friends. 5. It is probably changing like people are more into gadgets than talking to their peers and family but I think when it comes to the available options, they are all the same. People will still choose to stay home or go out at the weekends. It’s easier to find an event or place to visit nowadays as the applications are all installed in our smart phones. People can still enjoy eating fancy food while sitting on their couch for they can order online. More importantly, I think it’s also getting more affordable as people are more spoiled with a

216 Speaking lot of free vouchers from shopping applications like OVO or TIX for their buy 1 get 1 movie ticket promo.

Speaking 217 diverse culinary presentations you will ever see. I’m not trying to exaggerate but the options are plenty and they are not always spicy.

I’ve been to Sydney before and you can get more plates and bring more friends with the same amount of money you spend there. 3) I’m pretty sure that buying it here is possibly more suggested as you can bring a lighter luggage and again, things are quite cheap here. The quality of our clothes and apparel are also comparable to those sold in Australian malls. 4) I will make a special itinerary for you from culinary to adventurous trips and sports. This is going to be an exciting travelling experience for you. Indonesia isa place of wonders and diversity. You’ll never get bored, I believe!

It’s not enough to release all the pain and fatigue for short weekend duration. 2) It’s still a good option if you don’t really want to drive or get stuck in traffic. Spending time with family is nice too. I’m planning to do a barbecue with them this coming weekend. 3) Somehow it’s true but even spending weekends in a mall is not a terrible idea. There are still a lot of activities to do

To me, movie review must include every aspect from a story plot to the acting of the actors. This two must complement each other. Apart from these two, other elements like music scoring, special effect, clothing, script and dialogue are essential in making a quality movie.

228 Speaking Module 4 Travelling

Introduction

Traveling is one of the activities that people usually do not only for vacation purposes, but also for work and study purposes. People often travel overseas and they have to meet people who can only communicate in English. This is why studying English for traveling purposes is very important. Before traveling, people usually go to a travel agent in order to book plane tickets, hotels, and other things related to accommodations. Having conversations at airports is also inevitable when people are traveling. When traveling on leisure purposes, people usually visit tourism places that have so many things to explore and thus urge them to perform a lot of conversations with the tour guide and other people there. Thus, it is crucial for college students to be capable of handling different conversation types in the aforementioned places.

At the end of studying this module, students will be able to use various English expressions to communicate with other

This module is divided into three units based on the place where the expressions take place, namely at the travel agent, at the airport, and at tourism places.

Common Expression

Starting the conversation to make appointment on the phone call

To start the conversation to make appointment on the phone call, you may use the expressions which directly tells your intention such as the following: Hello, I would like to make an appointment, please. How soon could I have an appointment? Would today evening be all right to make an appointment? Can you give me an appointment on Sunday? Could I possibly come for an appointment on Monday?

334 Speaking Making interruption during the conversation

In the middle of the conversation, interruptions sometimes occur in some ways when we missed important information or when we would like to cut our counterparts. To do so, you may use the following expressions: Excuse me, …… I am so sorry for interrupting, but …… Hold on, …… Interruption, please.

Asking for repetition and clarification

Oftentimes, in the conversation, we missed some information due to unclear speech or extremely fast speech and need our counter parts to repeat what they have said. Even native speakers have to ask people to repeat thing sometimes – especially on the phone. If there is a bad line or the sound is not clear, it’s natural to ask the person on the other end to repeat what he or she has said. Sorry, I’m having a little trouble hearing. Could you slow down a little? Sorry, I didn’t quite catch that. Could you repeat it, please? Excuse me, could you please repeat what you just said? Well, I would like to just clarify what you said. May I clarify what you mean?

Speaking 335 Asking other person to spell details

In the discourse of making appointment, we are often required to spell our names and places, especially if those names are not English names, like James, Arthur, Cathy, and so on. Therefore, you can simply ask your counterparts by saying: Excuse me, could you please spell it? Would you mind spelling your name/ the name of the place? I am sorry, could you please spell the name slowly?

Additional Notes

Spelling name of persons and places are common in the discourse of making appointment as it deals with your details. Even in IELTS listening test, you may also find this test, as you can see in the following picture: Picture 2.1 IELTS Listening Section: Personal Details Form

The newly elected minister said that as a show of appreciation

358 Speaking for the winning athletes, the government recently issued a ministerial decree to speed up their civil servant status. It is customary for Indonesian athletes who win medals at international sporting events to be appointed as civil servants. “As I am the minister, I have inked a new ministerial decree stipulating that they [medalists] can become a civil servant without first passing a test,” he said. Indonesia ended its Asian Games journey in fourth place with 98 medals, comprising 31 golds, 24 silvers and 43 bronzes. The overall winner of the Games is China with a total 289 medals, followed by Japan and South Korea with 205 and 177 medals, respectively.

Speaking 365 Module 6 EDUCATION AND WORK

Introduction

This module contains speaking material on education and work for novice (beginner) learners. It is divided into three lesson units;

Unit 1: Talking about past events Unit 2: Talking about current job Unit 3: Talking about the future

The sequence of activities is: dialogues, discussion, tasks, summary, and formative tests. Each unit contains useful expressions and appropriate tenses for different contexts (past, present and future) associated to the topics of education and work. Topics of education and work is the most common topics encountered in daily life. People start conversing about education and work after getting to know each other(as learned in Module 1). Therefore, it is very important to master

366 Speaking appropriate language uses and functions related to the topics, particularly the tenses and expressions for different situations.

TALKING ABOUT THE PAST

Look at the pictures. Answer these following questions: • What occasion do you think it is? • Have you ever been in the same occasion? • What do people usually do on that occasion?

Speaking 369 Goals

In daily life or some occasions, we need to recount activities or things we did in the past. The ability to recount past events is one of essential features in English conversation. In this unit, you are going to learn how to talk about activities and events in the past with the topic of education. In general, after studying and practicing this material you are expected to be able to talk about past activities and events using the right expressions and grammar of simple past tense.

370 Speaking Read the dialogues as many times as possible. Then find a partner and practise them. Dialogue 1: Long time no see! Two friends, Zahra and Fathima, meet again at senior high school reunion. Fathima : Excuse me, are you Zahra Novera? Zahra : Fathima?! Fathima : Zahra! I knew it’s you and I am right! It’s been such a long time since the last time we met! Zahra : Yeah, it’s almost seven years! How time flies so fast! How are you doing? Fathima: I’m great, thanks! I am so happy to meet you again.

I am just afraid if I cannot recognize the people… Fathima : You still keep it? Amazing! I completely forget where mine is… Zahra : Well, I like looking at some good pictures in the past, such as…this one. Do you remember about this? Fathima : Of course, I remember. It was the photo when

I just kept studying for the exam every day until my mother asked me to assist her in her office. Fathima : What happened then? Zahra : After helping her, I just realized that I loved managing money. So, I switched my study plan from Medicine to Accounting. Fathima : Did you enjoy your study? Zahra : So much! I enjoyed every lesson, including the most challenging one. It never came to my mind that studying Accounting could be very fun!

Common Expression The dialogues above show us how the speakers interact to each other using simple past tense to retell events that happened in their life after they graduated from high school. In this section, we will further discuss about the use and the formula of simple past tense. 1. USE: To talk about finishedevents in the past Ex: I had my lunch an hour ago (I finished my

Speaking 375 lunch and now I am doing something else). TIME SIGNALS • To describe the events in a story FOR PAST TENSE: Ex: She called hospital. Soon, an ambulance came to her house. Last… (time/ year/Monday…) • To describe habits and routines in the past Yesterday, Ex: I walked to school every day when I was (Long time/Two days/An hour…) eight. ago… In 1990/In January,... 1. 2. HOW TO USE SIMPLE PAST TENSE:

If you look closely at the examples presented below, ? you will find out that every sentence is different. Can you analyze the differences?

“I was sad when I lost your phone number.” (Zahra, Dialogue 1) “...I did not do anything about Mathematics.” (Alan, Dialogue 2) “Did you enjoy your study?” (Fathima, Dialogue 3)

The first one is an affirmative sentence using the ’to be’ (was) to describe the adjective (sad). Besides ‘adjectives’, ‘to be’ is also used for nouns (things), adverbs of time and adverbs of place. The ‘to be’ for simple past tense is was/were. Here is how we use ‘was’ and ‘were’:

376 Speaking WERE WAS You/ we / they I/ he/ she/it and other plural and other singular pronouns (such as pronouns (such as name names of two (or more) of a person/ her sister/ people, her sisters/the my father/the man, etc.) men, etc.)

• AFFIRMATIVE (POSITIVE) SENTENCE Subject + WAS/WERE + NOT + Adjectives/Nouns/Adverbs of time and place Examples: I was sad. They were all my students. Ms Ella was in Semarang yesterday.

• NEGATIVE SENTENCE For negative sentence, just add NOT after was/were SUBJECT + PAST VERBS (REGULAR/ IRREGULAR VERBS) Examples: I was not sad. They were not all my students. Ms Ella was not in Semarang yesterday.

• QUESTION For question, put was/were at the beginning of the sentence.

WAS/WERE + Subject+ Adjectives/Nouns/Adverbs of time and place?

Examples: Were you sad? Were they all your students? Was Ms Ella in Semarang yesterday?

Speaking 377 As explained above, we use was/were in the simple past tense for explaining Adjectives/Nouns/Adverbs of time and place. However, when we need to state an action, we use PAST VERBS for affirmative sentence and DID for negative sentence and question.

• AFFIRMATIVE (POSITIVE) SENTENCE

Examples: Nunung called her mom yesterday to tell the news. (regular verb) Two hours ago, Sule played basketball with his fans here. (regular verb) Wendy ate a lot of durian last night. Then, he felt sick. (irregular verb) (irregular verb)

There are two sentences with regular verbs and two ? sentences with irregular verbs above. Can you identify the difference of the verb changes?

NOTE ABOUT REGULAR/IRREGULAR VERBS: Most verbs for simple past tense end in -ed. These verbs are called regular verbs.

378 Speaking Spelling rules for regular verbs: 1. Verbs ending in e, add -d love-loved 2. One-syllable verbs that end with one grab-grabbed vowel + one consonant, double the consonant and add -ed 3. Other one-syllable verbs, add -ed look-looked 4. Verbs that end with vowel + consonant + study-studied -y, carry-carried Change -y to -i and add -ed stay-stayed Verbs that end with -y, just add -ed 5. Two-syllable verbs that end with one Refer- vowel + one consonant, double the referred consonant and add -ed (if the stress is on the last syllable)

Some verbs do not end in -ed and do not change at all. Other verbs, however, change from the base forms.

Speaking 379 NOT CHANGED

Cut Cut CHANGED Hurt Hurt Do Did Let Let Eat Ate Hit Hit Drink Drank Read Read Get Got (pronounce Drive Drove like red- in See Saw color) Beat Beat Sleep Slept Cost Cost Build Built Split Split Write Wrote Shut Shut Say Said

Identify the past verbs from three dialogues above! Decide whether they are regular or irregular. • NEGATIVE SENTENCE For negative sentence, just add NOT after DID and use base verb. SUBJECT + DID + NOT + BASE VERB Examples: Nunung called her mom yesterday to tell the news. Nunung did not call her mom yesterday Sule played basketball with his fans two hours ago. Sule did not play basketball with his fans two hours ago.

380 Speaking • QUESTION For question, put DID at the beginning of the sentence and use base verb. DID + SUBJECT + BASE VERB? Examples: Nunung called her mom yesterday to tell the news. Did Nunung call her mom yesterday to tell the news?

For any WH-Questions,put the WH-questionsbefore DID Examples: Nunung called her mom yesterday to tell the news. WHY did Nunung call her mom? WHEN did Nunung call her mom?

Wendy ate a lot of durian last night. HOW did Wendy eat the durian? WHEN did Wendy eat the durian?

Task 1 (Individual work) Think about your most favorite subject in senior high school. Prepare a short note about that, then practice speaking using simple past tense. Use prompt questions and phrases to help you structure your ideas. Answer sample is provided at the end of this book.

Speaking 381 PROMPT Begin your sentences QUESTIONS: with….

1. What was the • I’d like to talk about… subject? • When I was…. 2. How long did you • The reason (s) I study about it? liked it was/were 3. Why did you like because…. it? • To illustrate,... 4….(think of other • For example,… questions) • Overall, I think….

Record your response and show to your classmates or teachers for some feedback.

Task 2 (Pair work) Read the situation cards below. Find a partner and do a role-play!

STUDENT A: You are at a senior high school reunion. You meet with your high school teacher. Tell your teacher about your past experiences in his/her class (it can be about the subjects and involve other people too, such as your friends)

STUDENT B: You are the high school teacher. You meet your ex-student at the school reunion. He/she will tell you about some past experiences in your class (including the subject you taught and other students in your class). Respond and give comments to him/her!

382 Speaking Task 3 (Group work)

Form a group consisting of four to five people. Create a mini talk show about sharing high school experiences. One person should be the presenter who needs to prepare questions for everyone and leads the show. The others should participate equally (respond to questions, give opinions, etc.). Record your work and share to your classmates and teachers.

Summary In this unit, you have learned about how to talk about activities and events that take place in the past. Here is the summary of Unit 1 material: 1. We use simple past tense to talk about events and activities in the past. Two important things to remember are: • Using was/were in the sentences that describe adjectives, nouns and adverbs of time and place • Using past verbs in the sentences that state an action. • Using DID + base verb for negative sentence and question 2. Collocation is the natural combination of words. Some examples of collocations in the education field are: • Pass/retake the examination • Take a gap year/a course

Speaking 383 • Attend a class/a course • Hand in an assignment • Acquire knowledge • Get a degree in…

I. Choose one of these topics about life in high school! Prepare a short note about the topic you choose, then practice speaking about it. Record your response for evaluation!

At his twelfth birthday, his mother gave him a guitar, to which he was so fond of and used it for forming a series of garage bands. He dropped out of Miramar High School to pursue a career as a rock musician, but he attempted to go back two weeks later. However, his principal advised him to keep focusing on his music career. His visit to Los Angeles became the start of his success, where he met the renowned actor, Nicholas Cage, who suggested him to turn his career from music to acting.

Conversations about job are commonly found not only in the workplaces but in daily life as well. Therefore, it is important to understand the right expressions to talk about job. In this unit, you are going to learn job-related expressions. In general, after studying and practicing

388 Speaking this material you are expected to be able to engage in the conversations about job by using correct and appropriate expressions.

Zahra : Fathima, did you continue staying in Yogyakarta after finishing your study? Fathima : No. Soon after I graduated, I got a job at a textile factory in Bandung. Zahra : What did you do there? Fathima : I was a market researcher for their international brand products. Zahra : That sounds great! Fathima : Well, honestly, I don’t think so. I mean, it was a good job because I could do things I am good at and it paid me well. Zahra : Then, what’s the problem? Fathima : The problem was the working hours. I hated working on weekends, which I had to do most of the times. After working for three years and gaining many experiences,

390 Speaking I decided to resign and looked for another job. Zahra : Wow, it is such a big step. I don’t think many people will do the same as what you did, where you have to leave your comfort zone. Fathima: Indeed, I was not sure at first. But, after I resigned, I got another job pretty soon. Everything is going well so far and I never regret the decision I took!

Zahra : One of our accounting staffs just resigned last week. Then, I have to cover her work and new tasks also keep coming. Fathima : I can help you find a new staff. You can just tell me the requirements for the position. I can help posting it in my Whatsapp group

392 Speaking of my university friends. Zahra : That sounds good! Let me think about the requirements… Fathima : The first one is very simple. He or she must graduate from Accounting Department, right? Zahra : Certainly! It is the first and foremost. A graduate with a good GPA, at least 3 with minimum two-year working experience. He or she must be a reliable, organized and hardworking person. Also, I prefer someone who has a good communication skill. Fathima : Good communication skill? Does it matter so much for this job? Zahra : Oh, yes, for sure. The former staff was so bad at communicating what she did not understand. Consequently, she made a lot of mistakes in her work. Fathima : Oh, got it. Okay, it is now posted in the group. Let’s have our lunch now! Zahra : Thank you very much for your help, Fathima! Fathima : It’s my pleasure!

Speaking 393 Common Expression

The dialogues above show how two speakers (Zahra and Fathima) use some job-related expressions in their conversations. In this section, we will further discuss about expressions covering three aspects: asking about job, expressions of like/dislike and adjectives for job requirements.

1. Asking about job: In Dialogue 1, can you find what expression is used by Zahra to ask about Fathima’s job? Can you mention ? other similar expressions? People may ask you different types of questions about your job. The way you answer are also varied according to the questions.

When people ask you to explain about your job, they may want to know about your responsibilities or daily routine in your job.

394 Speaking 2. LIKE AND DISLIKE: In Dialogue 2, can you find some expressions of like/ dislike? ? Can you mention other expressions of like/dislike? Another common question in the conversation about job is when people ask you: How do you like your job? To answer that question, we need to use expressions of like/dislike. Some examples of the expressions that are related to the topic of job are:

Speaking 395

LIKE DISLIKE I like my job I don’t like my job. They like working They don’t like dealing with their boss. here. She loves the job at She doesn’t love her job. restaurant.

420 Speaking MODULE 6 SAMPLE ANSWER

The sample answers provided here are not definite. There are many possible ways to answer the tasks and tests of this book.

UNIT 1

Task 1 I’d like to talk about my favorite subject in high school, which is History. For me, studying History was both a challenge and a pleasure. It was a challenge because I had to memorize many dates, names of people and places. However, it was also a pleasure because when I studied History, I felt like I went back to the past and became the part of something great. For example, when I studied the history of how Indonesia fought for its independence from Dutch and Japan, I was fascinated by the facts that many young people struggled together despite of differences in their origins, languages, cultures and races. Their struggles inspire me to not easily give up in facing obstacles in life and do the best things to serve the country.

Task 2 A: Hello, Sir, how are you? B: I am good. Thank you. How are you? A: I am fine, thanks. I was in your Physics class for the class of 2007.

Speaking 421 B: Oh, really? I am sorry that I might forget everyone in my class. But 2007 is not so long ago. What’s your name, anyway? A: I’m Putra. B Putra…the one who always sat with Bono at the very front row? A: Yes, Sir, exactly. Do you still remember about us? B: Well, I just remember that you both were always attentive and did all tasks given. A: Thank you, Sir. That is such a compliment for me. I always enjoyed your lesson. I loved Physics and the way you explained the materials was very clear and made me more interested in every new topic. B: I think it is a must. As a teacher, particularly for difficult subject, such as Physics, I need to make the lesson as interesting as possible. It will make students pay more attention and understand the lesson well. A: That’s a really good point, Sir. The same thing I apply to myself now. B: Are you a Physics teacher? A: Yes, Sir and it is because of you. Thank you very much for inspiring me. B: I am so proud of you. I hope you can always be a good educator. A: Thank you, Sir.

422 Speaking FORMATIVE TEST I. The most memorable event I’d like to talk about the most memorable event when I was in high school. It was a study excursion to Bali with all of the twelfth graders in my last year in high school. It was memorable because that was the last moment of our togetherness with friends and teachers. Besides, Bali is my most favorite place to go for its beauty and beaches. For our excursion, we visited some historical places in Bali, where we had to find information about those places and discuss with friends in group works. We also had so much fun by going to beaches and enjoyed seafood in the restaurants nearby. A moment that I remembered the most was when my friend, Sarah, was lost in the traditional market. All of us were confused and worried. At last, it was found out that she had a stomachache and needed to go to the restroom in the hotel, which was quite far from our meeting point. It was so unforgettable!

III. Retell the stories of celebrities Johnny Depp I would like to tell you about the story of Johhny Depp. As you might know, he is a well-known actor with a very successful career in film. However, not so many people know that he never finished his high school. It was because he pursued his career in music. His love for music started when he received a guitar in his twelfth birthday. Since then, he started to perform some garage bands performances. His visit to Los Angeles led him to the fame as an

Speaking 423 actor when he met Nicholas Cage, who encouraged him to turn his music career into acting.

UNIT 2

Task 1 I am going to present about my dream job. Since I was a child, I have always dreamed to become a diplomat for Indonesia. The reason why I made this as my dream job is because I like going abroad and learning cultures in one’s country. However, I realize that being a diplomat is more than that. I need to sharpen my communication and negotiation skills when dealing with problems that might need serious attentions. In short, being a diplomat requires the skills of being articulate, well-mannered, and adaptable to every situation. I am now preparing myself to be the best candidate for diplomat. I hope I can make my dream come true.

Task 2 A: Hi Doel! B: Zaenab! How are you? It’s very nice to meet you again! A: It’s nice to meet you too, Doel! I barely cannot recognize you. You’ve changed a lot! B: Yes, Zaenab. I think so too. It’s been a long time since we last met each other. A: Indeed. How’s everything, Doel? B: It’s good, Zaenab. I just bought a birthday gift for my colleague.

424 Speaking A: Oh, where do you work, Doel? B: Not far from here. You see that tall building? I am working there. A: Really? I worked there too last year for Pahlawan corporation. What about you? B: I work for Dunia Residence. I guess Pahlawan is on the 6th floor, while I am on the 10th floor. That’s why we never met. A: Yes, I think so. What do you do, Doel? B: I am the cost estimator for their housing projects. What about you, Zaenab? What did you do in Pahlawan? It is a well-known company for advertising. A: It is. I was working for a while there as an account manager. The pay was really good compared to other companies. However, I couldn’t stand the working pressure and my boss also stressed me out! B: Oh, that’s a pity! I think I am luckier than you. I have some pressures at work too, but everyone there supports each other. That’s why we can always face our problems easily. A: That sounds great! B: Yeah, but the pay might not be as good as others because we are a young company, which still needs to develop more. A: Well, at least you can enjoy your life a bit, Doel. It is better than having a lot of

Speaking 425 money, but you feel under pressure every day. B: That’s true, Zaenab!

FORMATIVE TEST I. Picture 1: I think the man works as a manager. He might not like his job because he has a lot of works to do and he looks stressed. However, he might like his job because the pay is high, so he can buy things he wants or probably go travelling frequently.

Picture 2: I think the woman is a teacher for young learners. She might like her job because she loves children and it is fun to teach enthusiastic learners. However, she might not like her job because it is exhausting, and she always needs to be very patient to the kids!

Picture 3: I think the man works in an orchard as a fruit picker. He might like her job because the job is easy, just picking some fruit, and he can have free fruit for himself. On the other hand, he might not like his job because it is an outdoor job, which can be very tiring.

426 Speaking II. A: Hi, Bobby, how are you doing? B: Hi, Anisa. I am doing fine. Thank you. A: You look quite tired and your face is all red. B: Yes, I just got back from Peter’s orchard.

He needs a lot of pickers for this harvesting season. A: That sounds great! I guess it pays really well, isn’t it? B: Yeah, you can say so. Besides, I like working surrounded by nature. It feels relaxing. What about you, Anisa? Have you found any job? A: Yes. I am now working as a nursery teacher. B: That’s good! A: I really love teaching children. They are so adorable! B: Any part you don’t like about your job? A: Well, it’s probably when they are very active and I get overwhelmed. At that moment, I will feel so exhausting physically and emotionally. I think being a fruit picker is much better. You just deal with fruits, who cannot scream and run everywhere. B: That’s not entirely true. There are things I do not like from my job either, such as

Speaking 427 when the weather is very hot, you can get sunburn easily. Sometimes, it feels rather boring too! A: Do you want to exchange our job to each other one day? B: But I don’t like kids!

UNIT 3 UNIT 3 Task 1 I have two hopes for my future. First of all, I want to go travelling around the world. I will start my journey from some countries in Asia, such as Japan, Korea and China. Then, I will continue my journey to Turkey and other countries in Europe. By 2021, I hope I will have explored all these regions. Secondly, I will write a book about all of my travel experiences. To begin with, I am going to write a book about my traveling journey in some cities in Indonesia and see how people respond about it. If they respond it positively, I will continue with the second book-of course after I complete my journey abroad. I am planning to ask my friend, Catur, as a co-writer of my books.

Companies are going to hire more people with savvy computer skills. I think there will be a lot of young people studying computer science to secure job market in the future.

FORMATIVE TEST I. What is your plan this weekend? This Friday I am planning to visit my grandma in Bandung. I am going to get there by train. The journey will take two hours from Jakarta. My train departs at 5 PM. By 7PM, I will have arrived at Bandung. I like going there because the weather is nicer than in Jakarta. My grandma’s house is a good place to recharge my energy from the whole week’s activities. It has a huge garden with various plants and beautiful flowers. I am going to pick some fresh tomatoes from her trees and make tomato juice. The next day, I will be going to Lembang to buy some strawberries, my favorite fruit. This will be an awesome weekend!

How your life will be different in ten-year time? I think my life will be completely different ten years from now. I will probably have got married and had some children. It is highly likely that I will have moved to another town or even country! Moreover, I think I will probably have been working for the same job for three or four years. It will be a great job, such as journalist or writer. I am going to apply for either
