Main Idea. (Halaman 46).

6. It has an enameled surface declarated with elaborate designs, the outlines of which are formed by small bands of metal. the byzantines excelled in making this kind of pottery. however, in the twentieth century, japan and china have led in the production of cloisonne. cloisonne is a kind of fine pottery. small bands of metal. Ini memiliki permukaan enamel declarated dengan desain rumit, garis-garis besar yang dibentuk oleh band-band kecil dari logam. Bizantium unggul dalam membuat tembikar semacam ini. Namun, pada abad kedua puluh, Jepang dan Cina telah memimpin dalam produksi cloisonne. cloisonne adalah semacam tembikar halus. kecil band dari logam.

7. Immunization can significantly reduce the microorganism thought to cause cavities. The Federal Drug Administration need to approve the vaccine before it can be sold to the public. Consequently, the vaccine will have to undergo a three-year trial period. Imunisasi secara signifikan dapat mengurangi mikroorganisme diduga menyebabkan gigi berlubang. Federal Drug Administration harus menyetujui vaksin sebelum dapat dijual kepada publik. Akibatnya, vaksin harus menjalani masa percobaan tiga tahun.

Menentukan Ide Pendukung. (1) The Pre-Raphaelite brotherhood was a school of artists formed about 1848. (2) Their ideal was absolute fidelity to Nature. (3) Ruskin was an art critic. (4) For a time, the school greatly influenced art development. (5) However, by the end of the century, the movement had been abandoned. (1) The Pre-Raphaelite persaudaraan adalah sekolah seniman terbentuk sekitar tahun 1848. (2) yang ideal mereka adalah kesetiaan mutlak untuk Alam. (3) Ruskin adalah seorang kritikus seni. (4) Untuk sementara waktu, sekolah sangat dipengaruhi perkembangan seni rupa. (5) Namun, pada akhir abad ini, gerakan telah ditinggalkan. 1. Teks yand ada dibawah ini meletakkan main idea pada akhir paragraph (pada kalimat yang dicetak tebal). By the year 2009, vaccine against the common cold will have been developed. By the same year, the first human will have been successfully cloned. By the year 2014, parents will be able to create designer children. Genetic therapy will able to manipulate genes for abilities, intelligence, and hair, eye, and skin clor. By 2020, most diseases will able to diagnosed and treated at home, and by 2030, cancer and heart diseases will have been wiped out. There are just a few examples of medical miracles that are expected in the next few decades. (Topik: Medical miracle to come).

2. Main idea ada di awal dan akhir paragraf. Synonyms, words that have same basic meaning. For example, the word stingy and frugal both mean "careful with money". However, to call person stingy is an insult, while the word frugal has much more positive connotation. Similarly, a person wants to be slender but not stingy, and aggressive but not pushy. Therefore, you should be careful in choosing words because many so-called synonyms are not really synonymous at all. (Topik: Synonyms).

Sinonim, kata-kata yang memiliki makna dasar yang sama. Misalnya, kata pelit dan hemat keduanya berarti "hati-hati dengan uang". Namun, untuk memanggil orang yang kikir adalah sebuah penghinaan, sedangkan kata hemat memiliki konotasi yang jauh lebih positif. Demikian pula, seseorang ingin menjadi ramping namun tidak pelit, dan agresif tapi tidak memaksa. Oleh karena itu, Anda harus berhati-hati dalam memilih kata-kata karena banyak disebut sinonim tidak benar-benar identik sama sekali. (TOPIK: Sinonim). Contoh lain: For more than a century, despite attacks by a few opposing scientists, Charles Darwin's Theory of evolution by natural selection has stood firm. Now, however, some respected biologists are beginning to question whether the theory accounts for major developments such as the sift from water to land habitation. Clearly, evolution has not proceeded steadily, but has progressed by radical advances. Recent research in molecular biology, particularly in the study of DNA, provides us with a new possibility. Not only environmental change, but also genetic codes in the underlying structure of DNA could govern evolution.
Selama lebih dari satu abad, meskipun serangan oleh ilmuwan menentang beberapa, Teori Charles Darwin tentang evolusi melalui seleksi alam telah berdiri teguh. Sekarang, bagaimanapun, beberapa ahli biologi dihormati mulai mempertanyakan apakah teori menyumbang perkembangan utama seperti menyaring dari air ke darat huni. Jelas, evolusi tidak berjalan terus, namun telah berkembang oleh kemajuan radikal. Penelitian terbaru dalam biologi molekuler, khususnya dalam studi DNA, memberikan kita kemungkinan baru. Tidak hanya perubahan lingkungan, tetapi juga kode genetik dalam struktur yang mendasari DNA bisa mengatur evolusi. Berdasarkan teks di atas, Maka: Topiknya adalah: Questions of Darwins Theory. Main idea-nya adalah: Some respected biologist are beginning to question Darwins Theory. Contoh latihan: In Greek and Roman times, the cavalry was comprised of members of noble families. This distinction continued up to the Middle Ages. After the invention of gun powders, this branch of the military service underwent great changes. With development of heavy artillery and air forces, this services has almost disappeared. Pada zaman Yunani dan Romawi, kavaleri itu terdiri dari anggota keluarga bangsawan. Perbedaan ini terus berlangsung sampai Abad Pertengahan. Setelah penemuan senjata bubuk, ini cabang dari

dinas militer mengalami perubahan besar. Dengan perkembangan artileri berat dan angkatan udara, layanan ini telah hampir menghilang.
