which is located in the first paragraph. The function of
identification is to introduce the thing that we want to describe
to listeners or readers or character recognition as well as topic .
- Description: Description is the next part of the descriptive text.
This section is usually written in the second and subsequent
paragraphs. The contents of the Description section are the
properties or characteristics of the objects or things that we
describe and are a continuation of the first part (Identification).
The properties or characteristics of these objects or things are
special characteristics that are inherent or exist in the objects or
things that we describe and are not general things that can be
found in every object that is similar to what we describe.
(describing the objects or things in parts, qualities, or/and
characteristics).
- Conclusion: is the last part its end or result. In the descriptive
text this section is optional (may or may not be available).
- Identifikasi: Identifikasi merupakan bagian pertama dari teks deskriptif
yang terdapat pada paragraf pertama. Fungsi dari identifikasi adalah
untuk mengenalkan hal yang ingin kita gambarkan kepada pendengar
atau pembaca atau pengenalan karakter serta topiknya.
Contoh: Jika Anda akan mendeskripsikan mengenai mobil Volkswagen
Combi, kalian akan menuliskan dalam paragraf pertama (Identification)
sebagai berikut:
Aku memiliki sebuah mobil baru. Mobil tersebut bermerek Volkswagen.
Mobil ini merupakan jenis mobil yang sudah lama aku inginkan sejak
aku berumur 12 tahun.
(I have a new car. The brand of the car is Volkswagen. This car is the
car that I really want to have since I was 12 years old).
- Deskripsi: Deskripsi adalah bagian selanjutnya dari teks deskriptif.
Bagian ini biasanya ditulis pada paragraf kedua dan selanjutnya. Isi
bagian Description merupakan sifat atau ciri dari objek atau hal yang
kita gambarkan dan merupakan kelanjutan dari bagian pertama
(Identifikasi). Sifat atau ciri dari benda atau benda tersebut merupakan
ciri khusus yang melekat atau ada pada benda atau benda yang kita
gambarkan dan bukan merupakan hal umum yang dapat ditemukan pada
setiap benda yang mirip dengan yang kita gambarkan. (mendeskripsikan
objek atau benda dalam bagian, kualitas, atau / dan karakteristik).
Contoh (lanjutan dari Identification): Mobil Volkswagen ini merupakan
jenis Kombi. Warna dari mobil ini adalah merah dan cream. Mobil
tersebut merupakan mobil tipe ke 2 yang diproduksi oleh Volskwagen,
setelah sebelumnya Volkswagen memproduksi tipe 1 yaitu Beetle.
Mobil VW Kombi ini memiliki 2 pintu di bagian samping dan juga
memiliki atap yang dapat dibuka sehingga disebut juga sebagai mobil
VW Samba Bus. (This Volkswagen car that I have is a Kombi one. The
color is red and cream. This care is the second type that is produced by
Volkswagen, after it produced the first type, Beetle. This VW Kombi
has 2 doors at one side and has a cloth sunroof so that it is also called as

come from several parts of the world, North America, Europe,
northwest Africa and many parts of Asia and Oceania. There are
over 100 different species of roses.
The wild rose species can be grown in gardens, but most garden
roses are cultivars, which have been chosen by people. Over
hundreds of years they have been specially bred to produce a wide
variety of growing habits and a broad range of colours from dark
red to white including as well yellow and a bluish/lilac colour.
Many roses have a strong, pleasant scent. Most roses have prickles

rainforest habitat. The diet of all species is dominated by fruit and
to a lesser extent arthropods. The birds-of-paradise have a variety
