UNIT 1

AN INTRODUCTION- WHO PRODUCED THIS TEXT, FOR WHOM AND WHY?

Based on the background reading in the reading book (blue book BB), there are many information about various types of writing. There are many stages of writing in order to guide the reader to produce a good writing. Furthermore, there are some examples of texts given to let the reader viewpoint their own writing in future. There are also some rules and regulations in writing. The reader is given the examples of some texts and word structures to make use for them in the appropriate sentence and paragraph. The reading includes the general regulation for students. This part shows the institutional style of writing. Therefore from the Portfolio task text in Reading 1.1 Convicted Killer Back at Work, the reader can apply the skills and the examples that are provided in the reading and follow the rules and regulations with the aim to construct a good piece of writing.

However, after skimming and scanning all the readings in Unit 1, there are some parts that are too complicated and cannot be understood by the reader. Not just all that, sometimes the examples given is also very hard to comprehend. The contents of the readings are too long. It will make the reader feel bored and not interested. Then, refers to the article for the Portfolio task, the reader do not know how to apply it with the readings. It seems like the points given do not reach to the reader. Therefore all the readings in Unit 1 must be simplified to make them more organized by constructing it in a bullet point and by including just the main ideas and some examples that adhere to the topic. Thus, it will be more attractive and can make the reader interested to read it not just skimming or scanning the texts.
