talk about bikes suppose that in writing in the form of Report Text, the text
is talking about bikes in general; parts, powers, and functions in general
should the bike. Meanwhile, if the bike is described with Descriptive Text,
then these bikes refer to a specific type of speda eg mountain bikes, racing
bikes and the other, which of course, with the characteristics of its

E.
Perbedaan antara Descriptive Text dan Report Text
Beberapa jenis teks bahasa Inggris cukup
sulit untuk di bedakan. Seperti halnya Descriptive Text dan Report Text yang
mempunyai kesamaan dalam hal tujuan komunikatif (Social Function) dan sturktur
kalimatnya (Generic Structure). Tetapi jika kita menganalisisnya dengan cermat,
perbedaan antara ke-duanya akan nampak.
Tujuan dari kedua teks tersebut adalah untuk
memberikan deskripsi langsung mengenai objek. Antara Descriptive Text dan
Report Text lebih mencoba untuk menunjukan dari pada memberitahu pembaca
tentang kondisi fakta dari objek tersebut. Pembaca dengan sendirinya akan
menangkap point yang mengesankan dari objek tersebut melalui penunjukan gaya
penulisan. Yang membuat berbeda antara Descriptive Text dan Report Text adalah
pada cakupan penulisan objek. Jika kita berbicara tentang misalkan sepeda yang
di tulis dalam bentuk Report Text, teks tersebut akan berbicara mengenai sepeda
secara umum; bagian-bagiannya, kekuatannya, dan fungsinya secara umum
selayaknya sepeda. Sedangkan jika sepeda dideskripsikan dengan Descriptive
Text, maka sepeda tersebut merujuk ke jenis speda tertentu misalnya sepeda
gunung, sepeda balap dan yang lainnya, yang tentunya dengan ciri-ciri
sertifikasi-nya; warna, jenis roda, warna, dll.
Singkatnya, Report Text mendeskripsikan
sesuatu yang biasanya merujuk kepada gejala-gejala alam, hewan, dan benda
ilmiah. Report Text ditulis setelah mendapatkan obeservasi secara cermat. Hal
ilmiah dan teknikal inilah yang membuat perbedaan yang jelas dari Descriptive
Text.
