E.        Example and Analysis of Explanation Text
Example 1
PANGANDARAN BEACH

The tour to Pangandaran Beach started on holiday last semester. We decided to go to Pangandaran Beach by our motorbike. That was very interesting tour. Riding a motorbike from my hometown, Cirebon, to Pangandaran Beach with my best friends made me feel exited.

The tour to Pangandaran Beach began at 09.00 a.m. in the morning and it took 5 hours riding to Pangandaran Beach. There were so many story that my friends and I got when we were in the tour such as there was my friend who got lost, ran out of fuel in the middle of jungle, and so forth. But it was interesting, because it was the first moment that I ever had in touring.

We arrived at Pangandaran Beach at 02.00 p.m. and we stright to move to the beach. At beach we just lied down there to stretch our muscle because of 5 hours riding. We also had a lunch there by eating some foods that we brought from Cirebon. That was very nice moment when we shared our own food to others.

After we had enough rest, we began to explore Pangandaran Beach. Started by exploring the beach, and the sea using rented boat. Then we went to dive by renting some diving equipment. We could see many coral there. We just had 2 hours to enjoy Pangandaran Beach because we had to come back to Cirebon.

We came back to Cirebon at 04.00 p.m. It was imposible to ride in the night, so we just decided to stay over in our friend house in Ciamis and we started to come back in the morning. That was very nice experience that I and my friends ever had. We would never forget that moment.

Example 2
MY HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE

Let me remind you my experience during an earthquake last week. When the earthquake happened, I was on my car. I was driving home from my vacation to Bali. Suddenly my car launched to one side, to the left. I thought I got flat tire. I did not know that it was an earthquake. I knew it was an earthquake when I saw some telephone and electricity poles falling down to the ground, like matchsticks. 
 
Then I saw a lot of rocks tumbling across the road. I was trapped by the rock. Even I could not move my car at all. There were rocks everywhere. There was nothing I could do but left the car and walked along way to my house, in the town. 

When I reached my town, I was so surprised that there was almost nothing left. The earthquake made a lot of damage to my town. Although nothing was left, I thanked God that nobody was seriously injured.

B.                 Learning Suggestion

Inviting people to join you for dinner, social events, or other occasions is usually done using 'would like' to indicate the invitation. This form can be used for both formal and informal invitations. Remember that 'would you like ...' is always followed by the infinitive form of the verb (to do).
 It's also common to use suggestion forms in more informal situations to invite other people to join you in doing something. These forms include 'let's do, how about / what about doing, shall we'.

Always thank someone for inviting you to do something. Here are some of the most common forms used to accept an invitation.
Thank you very much.
That would be nice.
Certainly, I'd love to...
Sure, that would be great! (informal)
