MATERIAL
Fishing at Seribu Island
Last holiday in January, I left Banyumas for Seribu Island. I went there
with some members of Banyumas fishing club, who organized the monthly
fishing activity. Getting there was not quite easy. It needed two hours by speed
boat in a bit rough wave.
Soon, after our arrival at Seribu Island, we got a general briefing. The
chief of the fishing club gave some information about the fishing code. It included
an explanation how to release out the hook from the fish mouth safely.
After the briefing, we began our fishing. We set out to sea early in the
morning. Around 4 kilometers from the beach, we started to fish. Apparently, no
one caught any big fish. We caught mostly small yellowtail fish. After fishing
for nearly four hours, I only got five fish; three yellow fish, one salmon and one
little Merlin. It was not bad at all.
However, the trip was very enjoyable. Fishing is absolutely an interesting
activity.
Question
1. Where did the writer go for a holiday in January?
2. Did the writer do the trip alone?
3. What did the writer do at the first time in Seribu Island?
4. How many fish did the writer get?
5. What kind of tense used in the text above?
6. Did the writer feel happy about his fishing activity?

A. Explanation
Recount text is a recount is a text which list and describe past experiences by
retelling events in the order in which they happened (chronological order). The
purpose of the Recounts text is to retell events with the purpose of either
informing or entertaining their audience (or both).
The basic recount consists of three parts:
- the setting or orientation - background information answering who? when?
where? why?
- events are identified and described in chronological order.
- reorientation which is concluding comments express a personal opinion
regarding the events described
The language features of the recount text are:
- the language is written in simple past tense
- frequent use is made of words which link events in time, such as next, later,
when, then, after, before, first,
