Salah satu bentuk teks yang diajarkan pada materi bahasa Inggris kelas 9
SMP/ MTs adalah teks report. Teks report memberikan suatu gambaran tentang
suatu hasil pengamatan terhadap sesuatu baik itu orang, benda, binatang,
maupun tempat secara umum. Teks ini hampir mirip dengan bentuk teks
descriptif, namun ada beberapa perbedaan yang terdapat dalam generic
structure nya.

Pada teks report, participant cenderung general atau umum artinya data yang
tersaji berupa suatu simpulan umum baik itu dalam penggambaran
karakteristik, ciri atau keberadaan dan keadaan participant. Adapun tujuan
dari teks report adalah menmberikan suatu gambaran umum dari participant
yang diulas.
Generic structure dari teks report ini antara lain sebagai berikut,
- General classification, yaitu pernyataan umum mengenai subjek laporan, keterangan dan klasifikasinya.
- Description, menginformasikan tentang ciri- ciri umum dari subjek sebelumnya baik itu sifatnya, perilaku, tampilan fisik, fitur- fiturnya, kualitas dan sebagainya.
Teks report sering menggunakan unsur kebahasaan tertentu antara lain:
- General noun, kata yang merujuk pada sesuatu secara umum, misalnya snakes are reptiles ( ular jenis apapun adalah golongan reptile)
- Relational process, menggunakan kata kerja yang menggambarkan keadaan participant, dan atau mengisyaratkan kepemilikan. Misalnya Birds have wings,, A Giraffe is a tall animal.
- Penggunaan simple present tense, penggunaan simple present tense dikarenakan teks ini menyatakan kebenaran umum atau fakta ilmiah.
Contoh text report
Beetles
Beetles are among the most common insects in the world. In fact,
scientists have found about 350,000 different species (kinds) of these
strange and interesting creatures.
Beetles come in many shapes, colors, and sizes. Some are round. Others
are long and thin. Most are brown or black. Some beetles have bright,
shiny bodies. Many have colored spots or stripes. Jewel beetles can be
blue, black, green, or copper colored. Ladybird beetles, also called
ladybugs, are orange with black dots.
Most beetles are smaller than your thumb. The world’s largest beetle is
the giant longhorned beetle of South America. It can grow to more than 7
inches (18 centimeters) in length. The tiny feather-winged beetle of
North America is one of the world’s smallest insects. It could fit on
the head of a pin!
Some beetles have horns. Rhinoceros beetles have two big horns.
Longhorned beetles have long, curving antennae, or feelers, that look
like horns. Weevils are beetles with long, slender snouts. A beetle’s
jaws are called mandibles. Some beetles, such as male stag beetles, have
large, powerful mandibles that look like deer antlers.
Beetles, like all insects, have a body with three main parts: head,
thorax, and abdomen. A beetle has antennae, eyes, and mouthparts on its
head. It has six legs and two pairs of wings—front wings and hind
wings—on its thorax. A beetle digests food in its abdomen.
Beetle wings are special. The front set of wings is hard. These wings
are called elytra. The colors of a beetle are on its elytra. The hard
elytra cover and protect the delicate hind wings. Beetles use only their
hind wings for flight. To take off, a beetle spreads open its elytra and
then unfolds its hind wings.
Beetles, like other insects, do not have bones. Instead, they have a
hard covering called an exoskeleton on the outside of their bodies. The
covering is like armor that protects their insides. The covering of a
beetle is harder than the covering of most other insects.
Some beetles that fall over on their hard backs have trouble standing
up. They just lie helplessly on their backs waving their legs. One
exception is the click beetle, which can jump into the air and land
right side up. It makes a clicking sound during its jump.

Pada contoh diatas, terdapat bagian- bagian dalam report text yang
menunjukkan bagian general classiffication, maupun description. Pada
paragraf pertama, adalah bagian general classification, yang mendeskripsikan
tentang beetles secara umum, diikuti oleh paragraf- paragraf setelahnya yang
menjelaskan bagian deskripsi dari beetles tersebut.
Baik, setelah mencermati teori dan contoh tentang report text, selanjutnya
adalah latihan soal. Pada report text, pertanyaan yang muncul secara umum
adalah tentang tujuan teks, topik teks, pertanyaan infformasi tersurat dan
