5. Example Explanation
How Earthquakes Happen
Earthquake is one of the most destroying natural disasters. Unluckily it
often happens in several regions. Recently a horrible earthquake has shaken
West Sumatra. It has brought great damages. Why did it occur? Do you know
how an earthquake happens?
Earthquakes are usually caused when rock underground suddenly
breaks along a fault. This sudden release of energy causes the seismic waves.
It make the ground shake. When two blocks of rock or two plates are rubbing
against each other, they stick a little. They don’t just slide smoothly. The rocks
are still pushing against each other, but not moving. After a while, the rocks
break because of all the pressure that’s built up. When the rocks break, the
earthquake occurs. During the earthquake and afterward, the plates or blocks
of rock start moving, and they continue to move until they get stuck again. The
spot underground where the rock breaks is called the focus of the earthquake.
The place right above the focus is called the epicenter of the earthquake.
Penjelasan:
Paragraf Pertama adalah tentang General Statement (pernyataan
umum). Melihat dari teks tersebut tentu GSnya adalah an Earthquake
happening.
Paragraf kedua: Squenced of explanation adalah penjelasan tentang
bagaimana Earthquake bisa terjadi. Gempa bumi bisa terjadi pada dasarnya

Paragraf ketiga: closing yang menerangkan bahwa pergeseran lempeng
bumi terus terjadi dan menerangkan bahwa titik di bawah bumi dimana batu
mengalami patahan (where the rock breaks) disebut sebagai Focus of the
eartquake dan tempat di atas titik tersebut disebut epicenter of earthquake.
