Reading
Many people believe that chocolate originally came from Europe. However, chocolate,
called the “food of the gods,” was first made in the Americas. The first chocolate was
very different from contemporary chocolate.
Wild chocolate trees can grow easily in the humid Amazon rainforest. Clusters of
flowers growing on these trees turn to seeds. About 20 to 60 cacao beans can be found
in the seeds. Cacao beans are the ingredient needed to create sweet, soothing, and
delicious chocolate treats.
The Mayan and Aztec cultures both thought that chocolate trees were brought from
paradise by gods. The Mayans and Aztecs used the beans from this divine tree to
create a special beverage with a very pleasant odor. Surprisingly, the Aztecs believed
that it would be toxic to women and children.
In the 1500s, the Spanish explorer Cortes met the Aztecs. Cortes became quite
interested in the plantations where the Aztecs cultivated chocolate trees. When he
returned to Europe, he took cacao beans with him. He introduced the people of Spain to
the Aztecs’ chocolate beverage.
Over the next 100 years or so, kings, queens, and members of the upper class enjoyed
drinking chocolate. They enjoyed it even more once they learned to add sugar to the
beverage! Soon, chocolate had spread all across Europe. New machines allowed
chocolate makers to perfect their products and produce them at a very rapid rate.
Preparing the beans in special ways brought out the aroma of chocolate. The beans
were combined with condensed milk to give the chocolate a smooth texture.
Today, contemporary chocolates with subtle flavors fill the shelves of expensive
chocolate shops. The different types of chocolate available today vary widely. True
chocolate lovers can tell which is best, though. They will tell you that the flavor of high-
quality chocolate stays on the palate long after you finish it.
Used to dan would mempunyai fungsi yang sama untuk menyatakan kebiasaan di
masa lalu yang tidak dilakukan lagi. Bedanya would tidak bisa dipakai dengan kata
kerja Statif.
I used to/would swim in the river when I was a kid.= Aku dulu biasanya berenang di
sungai sewaktu aku kecil.
I used to live here when I was a kid.= aku dulu tinggal di sana sewaktu aku kecil.
Would tidak bisa dipakai di sini karena live adalah state verb
Grammar explanation
When we talk about things in the past that are not true anymore, we can do it in different
ways.
Used to + infinitive
We can use used to to talk about past states that are not true anymore.
We used to live in New York when I was a kid.
There didn't use to be a supermarket there. When did it open?
Did you use to have a garden?
We can also use used to to talk about past habits (repeated past actions) that don't happen
anymore.
I used to go swimming every Thursday when I was at school.
She used to smoke but she gave up a few years ago.
used to + infinitive should not be confused with be/get used to + -ing, which has a
different meaning.
Would + Infinitive
We can use would to talk about repeated past actions that don't happen anymore.
would for past habits is slightly more formal than used to. It is often used in stories. We
don't normally use the negative or question form of would for past habits. Note that
we can't usually use would to talk about past states.
Past simple
We can always use the past simple as an alternative to used to or would to talk about past
states or habits. The main difference is that the past simple doesn't emphasise the
repeated or continuous nature of the action or situation. Also, the past simple doesn't
make it so clear that the thing is no longer true.
Grammar explanation
Used to + infinitive and be/get used to + -ing look similar but they have very different
uses.
used to
We use used to + infinitive to talk about a past situation that is no longer true. It tells us
that there was a repeated action or state in the past which has now changed.
a) It refers to something you are accustomed to; if you are used to something, you have
often done it or experienced it, so it’s not strange, new or difficult for you. It can be used
in all tenses.
- Affirmative = I am used to getting up early in the morning (-ing form)
He is used to loud noises (noun)
- Negative
I am not used to getting up early in the morning.
He isn’t used to loud noises
- Interrogative
Are you used to getting up early in the morning?
Is he used to loud noises?
3) GET/ BECOME USED TO + Verb- ing or Noun (Acostumbrarse a…)
a) To become accustomed to something. It is the process of becoming accustomed to
something. It can be used in all tenses.
Affirmative = After a while he didn’t mind the noise in the office; he got used to it (-ing
form) You will get used to your new mattress. (noun)
Negative = He didn’t get used to it. / You won’t get used to your new mattress.
Interrogative = Did he get used to it? / Will you get used to your new mattress?
Be used to and get used to are followed by a noun, pronoun or the -ing form of a
verb, and can be used about the past, present or future.
Stative Verbs
Stative verbs (or state verbs) describe the status or quality of something… NOT an action. Verbs
of perception, opinion, the senses, emotion, possession, and state of being are often stative verbs.
Jika kita membandingkan dua atau lebih orang atau kata benda, ada persamaan dan perbedaan
dari orang dan benda yang kita bandingkan. Yang dibandingkan adalah kata sifat dari orang
atau benda yang dibandingkan, Contoh: tinggi, pendek, hitam, cantik, besar, kecil dan
sebagainya.
Untuk persamaan kita pakai positive degree (as..as), untuk perbedaan kita pakai Comparative
Degree (bentuk lebih), dan superlative (bentuk paling) yang disebut dengan Comparisons of
Adjective.
Degrees of Comparisons
Positive Degree/form -Comparing two things which are the same using as + adjective + as,
tidak ada perbedaan, benda yang dibandingkan berada pada degree yang sama.
Contoh:
1. Mary is as beautiful as Maria.= Mary secantik Maria
2. My brother is as dark as me. = Adikku sama hitamnya dengan aku
Untuk membandingkan dua orang atau benda, bentuk comparative digunakan untuk
menyatakan lebih, akhiran “er” ditambahkan kepada kata sifat yang dibandingkan.
Ketika membandingkan tiga atau lebih orang atau benda, pergunakan Superlative untuk
menyatakan paling, akhiran est ditambahkan kepada kata sifat yang dibandingkan.
Note:
1. The word than is often used to compare two things or people. Comparative selalu diikuti dengan
kata than For example:
Mr. Lee is taller than Philip. A car is faster than a bike.
2. The word the is often used before the superlative form. Superlative selalu diawali dengan kata the
For example:
A bee is a small insect. A ladybird is smaller, but an ant is the smallest
If the adjective ends in e, add r to form the comparative and ‘st’ to form the superlative
Jika kata sifat berakhir dengan huruf e, kita tambah r untuk lebih, dan est untuk paling.
Suppose the adjective is a short word that ends in a consonant and has a single vowel in the
middle. Just double the consonant and add “er” to make the comparative and “est” to make
the superlative.
Jika kata sifatnya kata yang pendek dan berakhir dengan huruf mati dan mempunyai huruf hidup di tengah, huruf
matinya di double kemudian ditambahkan er untuk lebih dan est untuk paling.
Suppose the adjective has two syllables and ends in “y”. Just change the y to i and add er to
make the comparative and add “est” to make the superlative. Jika kata sifatnya terdiri dari dua suku
kata dan berakhir dengan huruf y, Huruf y diganti ke I dan ditambah er untuk lebih dan est untuk paling.
Irregular Comparative and Superlative Forms = Bentuk Comparative dan Superlative yang tidak
beraturan, tidak mempunyai bentuk menggunakan er, est, more, atau most.
A few adjectives don’t form their comparative and superlative forms in any of the usual ways.
The comparative and superlative forms of these adjectives are different words, called irregular
forms.
If there is a large difference between two objects, we can use much and a lot
For Small differences, we can use a little (bit) or slightly = sedikit berbeda
France is a little/a little bit/slightly bigger than Spain.
Perancis sedikit lebih besar dari Spanyol.
Common Phrase with superlatives = frase yang biasa dipakai bersamaan dengan superlative
not as … as
Silver isn’t as expensive as gold. = Gold is more expensive than Silver.
Time signals : already, yet, just, ever, never, for, since, before, how
long, today, recently, lately, this week/month/year, all my life, so far,
The present perfect tense shows action in the indefinite past/unknown time. The
present perfect
tense is also used to show action begun in the past and continuing into the
present.
We have lived in this house for five years. (= and we still live there)
Your plane has already landed. (= and it’s still on the ground)
She has dirtied her new shoes. (= she made them dirty and they’re still dirty)
The teacher has pinned a notice on the board. (= and the notice is still there)
You don’t need your key. I’ve already opened the door. (= and it’s still open)
Simple Past
Time signals :
- yesterday, two days/weeks/months ago, last week/month/year, in 1991, in
the end, at that moment, suddenly, then, when.
We use the past simple for actions completed at a particular time in the past, a
sequence of completed actions, past habits or regular events, situations or states
in the past
I have been busy this morning (It’s still the morning now)
I was busy this morning (This morning is now finished past)
She has starred in a lot of major films (She is still alive and acting).
she starred in a lot of major films (Her acting career is finished or she is dead)
He has been in the army for fifteen years (And he is still in the army now).
He was in the army for fifteen years (But he is no longer in the army. The time
period of fifteen years finished in the past)
Conclusion: Past simple has nothing to do with the present, but present perfect
does. (Past Tense tidak ada hubungan dengan saat ini, tindakan/peristiwa/situasi
telah selesai di masa lalu. Sementara present perfect berhubungan dengan saat
ini.
I have taught for thirty years ( sampai saat ini. sekarang masih mengajar).
I taught for thirty years (sekarang tidak lagi)
Time signals : already, yet, just, ever, never, for, since, before, how long, today, recently, lately,
this week/month/year, all my life, so far,
We use the Present perfect to talk about the relationship between the past and the present. The
past action or situation is connected to the present in various ways.
We have lived in this house for five years. (= and we still live there)
Your plane has already landed. (= and it’s still on the ground)
She has dirtied her new shoes. (= she made them dirty and they’re still dirty)
The teacher has pinned a notice on the board. (= and the notice is still there)
You don’t need your key. I’ve already opened the door. (= and it’s still open)
The Present perfect continuous is like the Present perfect. However, we use the Present perfect
continuous if:
We want to emphasize that the action is long or repeated. (menekankan tindakan
yang lama dan berulang)
She’s been trying to pass her driving test for years.
Notice that we often use for and since with the Present perfect continuous).
We are more interested in the activity than the result. (Lebih fokus kepada kegiatan
daripada hasilnya)
I’m really hot - I’ve been running. (=the activity that made me hot)
I’ve just run ten kilometers. (that’s what I have achieved)
Remember!
If we say how often the action happened, we always use the present perfect simple,
because the focus is on the result.
I’ve written ten/lots of emails today NOT I’ve been writing ten emails.
Like other continuous forms, we do not use the Present perfect continuous with ‘state
verbs’.
I’ve known Anne for years. NOT I’ve been knowing Anne for years.
FOR, SINCE, HOW LONG?
Sentences with for and since answer the question How long?
How long have you been learning to drive?
State Verbs:
love, hate, want, need, have, own, want, belong, see, hear, smell, see, know, believe,
remember, agree, appear, belong, concern, consist, contain, depend, deserve, disagree,
dislike, doubt, feel (=have an opinion), fit,

Monkey Island
In the middle of the ocean, there is a small island shaped like an arc. Here, monkeys
play on the beach and in the trees. But how did the monkeys get there?
Once, an English admiral was exploring Africa when he found hundreds of monkeys.
The admiral’s character was mean. He thought, “I could sell these monkeys and
become very rich! I’m going to take them to England.”
So, the admiral set traps to catch the monkeys. He put stakes in the ground, tied string
around them and made loops in the string. When the monkeys ran through the forest,
their feet got caught in the loops, and they couldn’t escape. Then the admiral put the
monkeys in cages on his ship and sailed away.
The cages were small and uncomfortable. There was no soft hay for the monkeys to
sleep on. Instead, they slept on branches with sharp thorns that cut into the monkeys’
flesh. For dinner, he gave them tiny pieces of sour grapefruit to eat. The monkeys
grew hungry and weak.
But one day, the admiral hired a new steward. He was a kind man with a good
conscience. He was horrified to see the thin monkeys in the cages. So one night he
let them out.
The monkeys ran and played all over the ship! They attacked the admiral and the
steward and ate their food. They completely wrecked the ship. One monkey ran into a
kerosene lamp, and it fell over. The ship caught fire and began to sink! The whole crew
was lost except for the monkeys.
After the accident, the monkeys jumped onto a raft. They floated away from the fiery
blaze of the ship. In the morning, they saw a little island in the distance. The monkeys
used a piece of wood as a paddle, and they went toward it. They found the island
shaped like an arc. They felt so happy to find a new home, and they still live there
today.

him.
“Don’t go this way,” the old man said. “Beware. The paths are not clear. It’s easy to
become lost.”
But the young man disagreed with the old man and bragged that he had a perfect understanding
of the park. “I studied maps of this area,” he told him. “I believe I have a thorough knowledge
of these trails. I won’t become lost.”
The old man listened to the young man and then admonished him for his pride. “I have walked
these trails my entire life,” he said. “If you think you will be safe, then go ahead.”
The young man ignored the old man and started along the trail.
Whenever he had to choose between an easy or difficult route, he always chose the more difficult
option. In addition, he was not conscious of which direction he was going. After a while, he
decided to return home. Because his course through the wilderness was so indirect, he had no
idea where he was.

alive. He decided to listen to people with more experience than himself.
