# Modul Bahasa Inggris XI ## Modul Pembelajaran SMA Bahasa Inggris - Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan - Direktorat Jenderal PAUD, DIKDAS - Direktorat Sekolah Menengah Atas - 2020 ## Kegiatan Pembelajaran 1 ### Uraian Materi #### Sub Materi: Pengertian dan Struktur kalimat memberikan opini Perhatikan percakapan antara 6 siswa dibawah ini. Bacalah dengan suara dikeraskan agar kamu dapat berlatih membaca teks dengan intonasi dan pengucapan kata yang jelas. - Janitra: I like Harry Porter movies because the magic seems so real. - Fauzan: I don’t agree with you. Harry Porter movies are just overrated. - Kenzie: I like playing tag because it is so much fun. - Deana: I don't like playing tag because people end up fighting. - Renda: In my opinion, the government should provide means of sustenance for under privileged people instead of building tall towers. - Rahmat: I agree with what you are saying but have you ever thought that building tall tower provides work for unemployed people? Perhatikan bahwa setiap siswa pada percakapan diatas menyampaikan pendapat atau opininya masing-masing. Tahukah kamu, apa yang disebut sebagai opini?   An opinion is the way you feel or think about something. Our opinion about something or someone is based on our perspective. Whenever we give or express our opinion, it is important to give reasoning or an example to support our opinion.   Nah, dari deskripsi tentang opini diatas, dapat kita simpulkan bahwasanya opini adalah pendapat seseorang yang didasari oleh prespekrif atau sudut pkalianngnya masing-masing. Sangat dianjurkan untuk memberikan opini beserta alasan dan bukti sebagai penguat atas opini yang diberikan.   Perhatikan struktur kalimat dari ekspresi menyampaikan opini berikut! | Subje | Ver | Obje | |---|---|---| | I | Agree | With what you are saying | | I | Don’t Agree | With you | | We | Believe | This is not the right way to handle things | | I | Reckon | This could be right considering the reasons you have provided | | I | Doubt | That this is possible | | We | Assume | You are blased this issue | | I | Think | You are mistaken | | I | Don’t Think | So |   Tahukah kalian bahwa opini dapat terbagi menjadi tiga kategori, yaitu (1) opini kuat, (2) sedang, dan (3) lemah. Mau tahu apa saja?   Seperti namanya, opini kuat merupakan opini yang memiliki argumen yang kuat. Opini sedang ialah opini yang memiliki argumen tidak terlalu kuat maupun lemah. Sementara itu, opini lemah merupakan opini yang memiliki argumen kurang meyakinkan. Supaya lebih paham, perhatikan contoh di bawah ini. **1) Strong (kuat)** - I’m absolutely certain that.... (Saya benar-benar yakin bahwa...) - I’m convinced that.... (Saya yakin bahwa...) - I strongly believe that... (Saya sangat percaya bahwa...) **2) Medium (sedang)** - I believe.... (Saya percaya...) - I don’t doubt that.... (Saya tidak meragukannya...) - I feel certain that... (Saya yakin bahwa...) - My impression is that.... (Kesan menurut saya...) - As I see it... (Seperti yang saya lihat...) - It seems to me that... (Tampaknya bagi saya...) - It strikes me that... (Ini mengejutkan saya bahwa...) **3) Weak (lemah)** - I think.... (saya pikir...) - I don’t think... (Saya tidak berpikir...) - I’m fairly certain that.... (Saya cukup yakin bahwa...) - I’m quite certain that.... (Saya cukup yakin bahwa...) - I would have thought that.... (Saya akan berpikir bahwa...)   **Example:** - George: What do you guys think about this song? (Apa pendapat kalian tentang lagu ini?) - Cath: I don't think it's a good song. (Saya tidak berpikir ini lagu yang bagus.) **weak opinion** - Linda: It seems to me that this song is good. (Menurut saya, lagu ini bagus.) **medium opinion** - Dion: I strongly believe that it's the best song I've ever heard. (Saya sangat yakin ini lagu terbaik yang pernah saya dengar.) **strong opinion**   #### Sub Materi 2: Mengeksresikan Opini Berikut adalah bagaimana cara mengekspresikan opini yang terbagi menjadi: - **Personal Point of View** - I think ... - Personally, I think ... - In my experience - I strongly believe that ... - As far as I am concerned - From my point of view - As I understand - In my opinion - What I mean is - In my humble opinion - I would like to point out that - To my mind - By this mean - I am compelled to say - I reckon - As I see it - **General Point of View** - Most people do not agree - Almost everyone - Some people say that ... - Some people believe - Of course, many argue - While some peple believe - Generally it is accepted. - The majority agree with - The majority disagree with - It is sometimes argued - While some people believe   Personal Point of view atau opini/pendapat pribadi adalah opini yang didasari oleh penilian pribadi seseorang sedangkan general point of view atau pendapat umum adalah opini yang bersifat umum dan digunakan untuk menghindari pendapat yang bersifat individual.   Kapan menggunakan jenis kalimat tersebut dapat kalian sesuaikan dengan kebutuhan pada saat kalian menyampaikan Opini. Nah, lanjut pada materi berikutnya adalah bagaiman cara memberikan respon terhadap suatu opini, dapat kalian perhatikan dengan seksama contoh-contoh kalimat berikut:   **Ekspresi Setuju atau Tidak Setuju terhadap Opini** | **Agreeing** | **Disagreeing** | |---|---| | Of course | I am sorry, I don't agree with you | | This is absolutely right | I am not sure I agree with you | | I agree with this opinion | I don't agree with you | | I couldn't agree more | I am afraid I have to disagree with you | | I agree, I never thought of that | I do not believe that | | Neither do I | By this mean | | That's a good point | I disagree with you | | I think so too | I think you are wrong | | I agree with what you're saying but have you ever.. | That's not the same thing at all | | | It is not justified to say so | | | I am not convinced that | | | I can't say I agree with this, and here's why |   **Berikut contoh Penggunaan kalimatnya.** | Statement/Opinion | Agree | Disagree | |---|---|---| | Smoking should be bannned in public places | I totally agree that smoking should be banned in public places | I am sorry but I tend to disagree with you on this | | Bullying is so prevalent in most schools | I couldn't agree more with you | I think it would be wrong to generalize | | Women should not work | I think so too. Women should stay at home and take care of their children | I am afraid I have todissagree with you on this | | Harry Porter series is much better than Twilight series | Yes. I agree. Harry Porter series has much better and well-developed story line | It's not justified to say because both have different plots | | Online gaming should be banned | Absolutely right. It should be as it distracts students from studying. | I don't agree with you. T is a venue for students to develop their skills |   Setelah mempelajari materi ajar diatas, Pilihlah salah satu emotikon berikut untuk menunjukan sejauh mana pemahaman kalian terkait materi yang telah dipelajari.   ## Kegiatan Pembelajaran 2 ### Uraian Materi Setelah sebelumnya pada pembelajaran I kalian telah mempelajari fungsi sosial dan struktur teks dan unsur kebahasaan dari 'expression of giving opinion and thought', maka pada pembelajaran II kali ini Kalian kalian berfokus pada bagaimana menyusun teks lisan dan tulis secara kontekstual terkait dengan fungsi sosial dan unsur kebahasaan yang melekat pada 'expression of giving opinion and thought'. Perhatikan percakapan dibawah ini: **Text 1.** - Vidia: Hi Ryan, by the way, I just don't understand why you guys like smoking? - Ryan: Well ... It's nice you know.. - Vidia: Nice? What's nice about smoking? In my opinion, there is nothing nice about smoking; it's dangerous for your health. And it is waste of money - Ryan: I've heard many times, but I don’t believe it. - Vidia: Maybe you'll believe it when you get your lung cancer.   Perhatikan bahwa percakapan antara Vidia dan Ryan adalah tentang bahaya merokok. Vidia menanyakan alasan Ryan tetap merokok dan memberikan opini akan bahaya merokok. Namun, nampaknnya Ryan sulit percaya tentang opini yang disampaikan oleh Virda.   Konteks percakapan diatas adalah antara teman sehingga penggunaan ekspresi dan kalimat juga disesuaikan bersifat lebih santai dan kurang resmi. kalian dapat menggunakan sejumlah ekspresi pada pembelajaran 1 untuk menyusun teks terkait dengan opini dan respon terhadap opini yang diberikan disesuaikan dengan konteks percakapan. ## Tips Menyusun Dialogue Adapun cara atau langkah-langkah dalam menyusun dialog yang sederhana, diant * Pertama-tama, menentukan tema tentang apa yang akan dibicarakan. * Lalu, menentukan tokoh yang ikut terlibat di dalam dialog tersebut. * Selanjutnya menentukan posisi ataupun peran masing-masing tokoh tersebut. * Terus, membuat inti atau garis besar materi tentang pembicaraan. * Setelahitu, menyusundialogberdasarkangarisbesardari pembicaraan dan r   **Text 2.** Perhatikan contoh balasan pesan di email dari Mirna kepada Shinta berikut ini.   Hi, Shinta. It’s me again Mirna. I know how you might feel about your doubt to decide your next stage of your life after graduation. You told me that you prefer taking your time in higher education to staying at home for short courses; both in accounting as you like. I am afraid I have to disagree with you this time. Going to college is truly good choice. But you have to remember your mother’s condition. She badly needs you in her side. You need to take care of her. Your presence will mean a lot for her recovery after the surgery. I wish you could get the best achievement in your short course for I believe that you are the cleverest friend I have ever had. I hope you take this into consideration. Best friend, Mirna   Mirna menghargai semua niat baik dan cita-cita Shinta. Karena Mirna teman akrab Shinta, dia mengungkapkan ketidaksetujuannya kepada Shinta tentang study lanjutnya di perguruan tinggi. Perhatikan cara Mirna menyampaikan pendapatnya yang tidak setuju tersebut. Tentu kalian juga pernah memberikan pendapat kepada teman kalian melalui media tulis selain juga dengan pembicaraan langsung. Menyampaikan pendapat secara tertulis memerlukan paparan yang lebih jelas agar pesan yang diterima bisa dimaknai secara utuh dan tidak terjadi kesalahpahaman. ## Latihan Soal ### Task 1.
