Belajar Bahasa Inggris: Menggunakan Frasa Partisipial untuk Meningkatkan Gaya Tulisan


inggris, bahasa inggris, belajar bahasa inggris, partisipel, frasa partisipial, frasa partisipial dalam paragraf


Dalam belajar Bahasa Inggris, Anda dapat menggunakan frasa partisipial untuk meningkatkan gaya tulisan Anda. Ketika tulisan Anda berisikan terlalu banyak klausa adjektiva, ubahlah beberapa dari mereka ke frasa partisipial. Kadang menggunakan frasa partisipial di awal kalimat dipertimbangkan gaya yang cukup matang.

Buatlah lebih baik tulisan pendek berikut dengan mengubah beberapa klausa adjektiva dan adverbia ke  frasa partisipial. Ada sembilan tempat di mana perubahan semacam ini dapat dibuat. Apakah Anda bisa menandainya?

Global Warming

                One of the biggest problems that faces humankind in the next few decades is the problem of global warming. In the past 150 years, global temperatures have risen approximately 1oC (1.8oF).The year 1998 was the warmest year that was ever recorded. If temperatures continue to rise, the consequences could be catastrophic. As the earth’s temperature rises, polar ice will melt, which will cause the water level of the oceans to rise. Rising ocean levels, in turn, will cause flooding along the coasts. Global warming will also cause major changes in climate that will affect agriculture. For example, crops that were previously grown in Guatemala may not do so well because it will become too hot.
                Because they believe that the increase in carbon dioxide in the earth’s temperature is the primary cause of global warming, scientists have urged immediate action to decrease CO2 levels. They have asked the world’s governments to write an agreement that will control the amount of carbon dioxide that is released into the atmosphere. After each government signs such an agreement, each government will have to enforce it. Brazilians, for example, will have to stop burning their rain forests, and Americans will have to stop driving their gas-guzzling SUVs.


Terjemahannya:
Pemanasan Global

                Satu masalah terbesar yang dihadapi umat manusia dalam beberapa decade yang akan datang adalah masalah pemanasan global. Dalam masa 150 tahun belakangan ini, suhu dunia telah naik kira-kira 1oC (1.8oF). Tahun 1998 adalah tahun terpanas yang pernah tercatat. Jika suhu berlanjut naik, akibatnya dapat merupakan bencana besar. Selagi suhu bumi naik, es kutub akan meleleh, yang akan menyebabkan permukaan air lautan naik. Kenaikan permukaan air lautan, pada gilirannya, akan menyebabkan banjir sepanjang pantai. Pemanasan global juga akan menyebabkan perubahan besar dalam iklim yang mempengaruhi pertanian. Contohnya, jagung yang sebelumnya ditanam di Guatemala mungkin tidak begitu baik karena iklim akan menjadi terlalu panas.
                Karena mereka percaya bahwa peningkatan karbon dioksida dalam temperature bumi adalah penyebab utama pemanasan global, para ahli telah mendesak tindakan segera untuk mengurangi tingkat CO2. Mereka telah meminta pemerintah di dunia untuk menulis perjanjian yang akan mengontrol jumlah karbon dioksida yang dilepas ke dalam atmosfer. Setelah masing-masing pemerintah menanda-tangani perjanjian semacam ini, setiap pemerintah akan harus melaksanakannya. Pemerintah Brazil, misalnya, akan harus menghentikan pembakaran hutan tadah hujan mereka, dan pemerintah Amerika akan harus menghentikan mengoperasikan jenis kendaraan SUV mereka (berbahan bakar gas).





Berikut 9 tempat yang perlu diubah ke dalam frasa partisipial:

Berikut beberapa contoh kosakata tambahan yang digunakan untuk memberikan opini dan menggabungkan gagasan.

The first and most important reason is that there are more professional opportunities for me in a big city than in a small town. Another is that the educational opportunities for my children are much better in a city. Third, a city offers cultural attractions such as museums, theaters, and good restaurants. Personally, I think that I would be bored living in a small town. Therefore, I agree with those people who prefer to live in big cities.
