TELLING ABOUT MY PLANS

          The plan must be carefully planned and ready to work and if it fails it must be prepared to accept the risks that exist and should be staggered. My plan for the future is to graduate on time with the best grades and earn a bachelor's degree in economics. After graduation I became a professional accountant and worked in a big company in Indonesia. I will work hard before marriage, I will finance my parents life so that they can enjoy old age without having to work, and bring them to the holy land of Mecca to pilgrimage. I will also finance my two younger brothers until they finish college and get a job. After happy parents and brothers, I will marry with someone I love. After marriage I will stop working and choose to open a business in the culinary field so I can focus on taking care of my husband and children without having to think about the demands of work in the company. That is my future plan, may Allah always bless my way to make my parents proud and happy, Amin..

CONDITIONAL SENTENCE

            Conditional sentences (also known as conditional clauses or if clauses) are made up of two halves. One half (the half with the word it in) is a condition, and the other half (the main clause) states the action to occur if the condition is fulfilled.

There are four types of conditional sentence:

            1.   Conditional Sentence Type 0

Conditional type zero is used to talk about general truths, scientific facts or things which always happen under certain conditions.

Form:

If + Simple Present, + Simple Present

The zero conditional is used to talk about things which are always true, scientific facts, general truths.

Examples:

·         If you cross an international date line, the time changes.

·         Phosphorus burns if you expose it to air.

·         If I wake up early, I go jogging.

NOTE: you can use "when" instead of "if".

           2.     Conditional Sentence Type 1

Often called the "real" conditional because it is used for real or possible situations. These situations take place if a certain condition is met. It is possible and also very likely that the condition will be fulfilled.

Form:

If + Simple Present, + Simple Future

Conditional Sentences Type 1 refer to the future. An action in the future will only happen if a certain condition is fulfilled by that time. We don't know for sure whether the condition actually will be fulfilled or not, but the conditions seems rather realistic – so we think it is likely to happen.

Example:

·         If I have enough time, I'll watch the football match.

I may have time to watch the match but I'm not sure about it.

           3.    Conditional Sentence Type 2

Often called the "unreal" conditional because it is used for unreal impossible or improbable situations. This conditional provides an imaginary result for a given situation. It is very unlikely that the condition will be fulfilled.

Form:

If + Simple Past, + would + base verb

Were / Was

In conditional type 2, we usually use in the if clause "were" instead of "was" even if the pronoun is I, he, she or it. "were" here is a subjunctive form.

NOTE "was" is also a possible form.

Example:

·      If I were a millionaire, I would buy a castle.

Conditional Sentences Type 2 refer to an action in the present that could happen if the present situation were different. I don't really expect the situation to change because it is very unlikely.

Example:

·         If I had a lot of money, I would travel around the world.

     4.   Conditional Sentence Type 3

It is impossible that the condition will be met because it refers to the past.

Form:

If + Past Perfect, + would + have + Past Participle

Conditional Sentences Type 3 refer to situations in the past. They express hypothetical results to past given situations.

Example:

·         If he had been careful, he wouldn't have had that terrible accident.

Sometimes in the past, he was careless. He drove so fast. So he had a terrible accident.

Things to remember

1.      The main clause can also be at the beginning of the sentence. In this case, don't use a comma.

Examples:

·         "Phosphorus burns if you expose it to air."

·         " I will send her an invitation if I find her address."

·         " I would travel around the world if I had a million dollars."

·         "He wouldn't have had that terrible accident if he had been careful."

2.      Main clause and/or if clause might be negative.

Example:

·         If I don’t see him this afternoon, I will phone him in the evening.

·         If he had been careful, he wouldn't have had an accident.

EXPERIENCE: THE NATIONAL GALLERY OF INDONESIA

          Hi friends.. This time i will share my experience while visiting the National Gallery of Indonesia which is one of the instiute's museum and the center for the fine arts activities. A year ago my friends and I went to the National Gallery. We went to use transjakarta bus from terminal block m and alight at the Monas. Because of the location of the National Gallery adjacent to the Monas, then we had to walk from the Monas towards the National Gallery. Arriving at our National Gallery straight into the exhibition space. The exhibition held at the National Gallery is composed of the permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions, and a travelling exhibition. Exhibition hall, there are 4 buildings, namely: building A, building B, building C, and D. Each building/space is devoted to displaying the works of modern and contemporary art, such as: painting, sculpture, kria, graphics, photography, installation art, new media, and others.

          Before entering the exhibition space we are obliged to leave our bags and so on in place of luggage and was given an explanation by an officer about the regulations that must be adhered to while in the exhibit hall. In this exhibition we are allowed to carry mobile phones and take pictures with notes when the photograph must not be too close to a work of art. While it the exhibit hall, we were amazed at the wide variety of existing works of art at the National Gallery. After of our exhibition space, into the backyard near the exhibit hall to take pictures. Here are some photos of our time at the National Gallery.

SUBJECT, VERB AND COMPLEMENT

1.      Subject

            In its simplest sense, the subject refers to the doer of the action or to what (or whom) the sentence is all about. It can either be a person, a place, a thing, or an idea, and can come in the form of a noun or a pronoun. Listed below are some of the most important terms related to the concept of the subject.

a.       Simple Subject

     A simple subject is a main word or words that tell what or whom a sentence discusses, not including any modifiers.

      Examples:

·         He walks to the office.

·         Dinda wears a beautiful dress.

·         The students are tired.

b.      Complete Subject

      A complete subject is all of the words that tell what or whom a sentence discusses, including any modifiers.

      Examples:

·         The old man in the back of the room asked a question.

·         The tall girl with the long hair fell into the swimming pool.

·         His new toy is already broken.

c.       Compound Subject

    This term simply refers to two or more subjects in a single sentence joined together by a connector.

      Examples:

·         Zhamia and Zhonia are twins.

·         Eid and New Year are my favorite holidays.

·         The birds and the butterflies are flying in the trees.

2.      Verb

            Verbs are the most important component of any sentence. These words talk about the action or the state of any noun or subject. This means that verbs show what the subject is doing or what is the state or situation of the subject. There are different types and classifications of Verbs; some of the most important ones are listed below:

1.      Action Verbs

      These verbs talk about what the subject is doing in the sentence. Action Verbs are one of the most easily identifiable types of verbs.

      Examples:

·         Devi knocks my room.

·         He sings a song to me.

·         Sandra reads a novel.

2.      Transitive Verbs

   These Action Verbs have a definite object on which, or for which the action is being performed. That means that the action has a definite recipient or object.

      Examples:

·         I  painted my bedroom walls in purple.

·         The man kicked the ball out of the field.

·         She wrote a love letter for her boyfriend.

3.      Intransitive Verbs

     These verbs also show an action but here there is no specific object on which the action is being done. To recognize these verbs, we ask the question what is the/did the subject -verb- ? If there is no answer present, then the verb in the sentence is an Intransitive Verb.

      Examples:

·         Paul Walker die because the accident.

·         I fall from the tree.

·         The sun rises in the east.

4.      Dynamic Verbs

     These verbs denote an actual action or expression or process done by the subject. They mean an action which can be seen or physically felt or the result of which is seen or physically felt by the object or an indirect object.

      Examples:

·         I want to run now.

·         The singer sings a beautiful song.

·         I am learning Spanish.

5.      Stative Verbs

     These verbs refer to the state of the subject or the situation of the subject. Stative Verbs tell us about the state of mind of the subject, or the relation between the subject and the object.

      Examples:

·         I prefer banana than strawberry.

·         My mom loves me so much.

·         This novel seems interesting.

3.      Complement

            Complement is the term used for a word (or words) which are needed to complete the meaning of an expression. Most phrases and clauses will include a complement of some kind. If you can't remove it from your sentence, then it's likely to be a complement. This is how complements differ from adjuncts. Adjuncts are optional as they are usually just descriptive. Complements are not optional. They are essential to ensure understanding.

      Examples:

·         You are beautiful.

·         Fildza is a dentist.

·         I have a dream.

Example of sentence containing Subject, Verb, and Complement:

1.      I found the house empty.

2.      Fadli is typing the letter now.

3.      They go to school every morning.
