Indeed, even first-time passengers feel the comfort and the convenience of KIX in terms of the procedures and flow that need to be followed, from the time one disembarks up to picking luggage. International arrivals sort out immigration matters and baggage on the first floor, while international departures take place on the third floor after one is ticketed on the fourth floor. A 24-Hour Airport Lounge, Business Center, VIP and Conference Rooms and, of course, Duty Free shops offering branded goods at attractive prices are readily available.

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.

The sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) is a dicotyledonous plant that belongs to the morning glory family Convolvulaceae. Its large, starchy, sweet-tasting, tuberous roots are a root vegetable. The origin and domestication of sweet potato is thought to be in either Central America or South America. In Central America, sweet potatoes were domesticated at least 5,000 years ago. In South America, Peruvian sweet potato remnants dating as far back as 8,000 BC have been found.
The plant does not tolerate frost. It grows best at an average temperature of 240C, abundant sunshine, and warm nights. Annual rainfalls of 750-1,000 mm are considered most suitable, with a minimum of 500 mm in the growing season. The crop is sensitive to drought at the tuber stage 50-60 days after planting, and it is not tolerant to water-logging as it may cause tuber rots and reduce growth of storage roots if aeration is poor.
Besides simple starches, raw sweet potatoes are rich in complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and beta-carotene, while having moderate contents of other micronutrients, including vitamin B and manganese. When cooked by baking, small variable changes in micronutrient density occur to include a higher content of Vitamin C at 24% of the Daily Value per 100 g serving. The Center for Science in the Public Interest ranked the nutritional value of sweet potatoes as highest among several other foods.
In Indonesia, sweet potatoes are locally known as ubi jalar and are frequently fried with batter and served as snack with spicy condiments, along with other kinds of fritters such as fried bananas, tempeh, tahu, breadfruits, or cassava.

Dalam kehidupan sehari- hari, kita sering menyatakan wish dan hope. Keduanya memiliki arti yang hampir sama akan tetapi digunakan dalam situasi yang berbeda. Secara arti, hope diartikan sebagai sesuatu yang diinginkan terjadi di masa akan datang (something good that you want to happen  in the future) atau menginginkan sesuatu agar menjadi kenyataan (to want something to be true). Sedangkan untuk wish,  bisa merujuk pada harapan agar seseorang mendapatkan sesuatu yang baik misalnya saja kesuksesan dan kebahagiaan ( to hope for somebody's success or happiness)





Untuk lebih jelasnya mengenai penggunaan wish dan hope, berikut pembahasannya.

Contoh :
  • I wish (that) I studied algebra ( I  don't study algebra)
  • I wish (that) I had met you ( I didn't meet you but I want to meet you)
Dari kedua contoh diatas, bisa kita simpulkan bahwa bentuk ini memiliki form :
wish + clause in past tense

2. Wish kadang- kadang digunakan sebbagai ungkapan greeting (ungkapan selamat) dan harapan yang baik.

  • I wish you a "lucky day"
  • I wish him "happy birthday"

  • I wish I could have helped you ( I regret losing the opportunity to help you)
Form untuk bentuk ini adalah 
wish + could/ would have + past participle 

4. Wish untuk sesuatu yang mungkin bisa terjadi di masa akan datang
Contoh :
  • I wish to get higher salary ( Saya berharap untuk mendapatkan gaji yang lebih tinggi)
  • I wish to come to your wedding party ( Saya berharap untuk bisa datang ke pesta pernikahanmu)
Fomr untuk bentuk ini adalah 
wish + to infinitive


Hope

1. Hope untuk menyatakan harapan yang baik (goodwill) akan tetapi dengan bentuk form yang berbeda dari wish yaitu hope + that clause
Contoh :
  • I hope (that) you have an unforgettable moment.
