Lyrics of the song

PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Little Jackie paper loved that rascal puff, 
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh 

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. 

Together they would travel on a boat with billowed sail 
Jackie kept a lookout perched on puffs gigantic tail, 
Noble kings and princes would bow whenever they came, 
Pirate ships would lower their flag when puff roared out his name. oh! 
[
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee. 

A dragon lives forever but not so little boys 
Painted wings and giant rings make way for other toys. 
One grey night it happened, Jackie paper came no more 
And puff that mighty dragon, he ceased his fearless roar. 

His head was bent in sorrow, green scales fell like rain, 
Puff no longer went to play along the cherry lane. 
Without his life-long friend, puff could not be brave, 
So puff that mighty dragon sadly slipped into his cave. oh! 

Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee, 
Puff, the magic dragon lived by the sea 
And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called Honah Lee.

                         PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON

         A little boy named Jackie paper, who is filled with so much self-doubt and fear that he has stopped talking altogether. His parents are so concerned that they have three doctors examine him, and they say it is hopeless and that little Jackie will never talk again. Jackie returns to his room, where he sits until Puff comes to his bedroom window and starts a conversation with him.
       Puff invites himself in, talks to Jackie about inner happiness, and pulls a long sheet of paper out of a magic bag. He cuts the paper into a paper doll shaped like Jackie and dubs it Jackie Paper. He explains Jackie Paper can do anything and then asks he if he can put his happiness into it. After he does so, the paper doll version of Jackie comes to life, and Puff then begin to make plans to go to Hannalee, which is located in the sea. Jackie admits he is afraid. Puff then helps Jackie make a boat using things in Jackie's room, such as string, sealing wax, and the frame of his bed.
          They set out onto the ocean, where they meet a boat filled with kings and princes in the shape of cards. Afterward Jackie says he was afraid of pirates after hearing about them. They then run into Very Long, a giant pirate who takes them to his island. While they await their fate, Puff says that Very Long will not be scary if they get to know him. They then view his inner desire with Puff's magic smoke rings which have the power to reveal hidden things. It reveals that Very Long secretly wishes to be a baker. Jackie then goes and asks Very Long if he can make pies, which Jackie doubts Long could. After baking dozens of pies, Very Long expresses that he always wanted to be a baker, but never believed he could do it and was afraid he couldn't change from being a pirate. Jackie prompts him to make this change, and Very Long expresses his gratitude to Jackie and Puff.
          They continue their journey until they reach the starless sky, where jealous clouds block out the brightness of the stars. One of the stars falls, and Puff instructs Jackie to take the small star to the sky with the boat, which Puff gives butterfly wings. In order for the ship to fly, Puff has to get out of the boat, leaving Jackie alone to face his fears. Jackie then returns the star to sky, brightening the sky. Puff rewards Jackie with a medal for bravery.
          Eventually they reach Hannalee, which, instead of a paradise, turns out to be a gloomy place. This is revealed to be the work of living sneezes that out of depression made the place gloomy to fit their mood. Puff then orders Jackie to leave, as this no place for him. After that Puff sadly walks to his cave, realizing he wasn't brave enough to defeat the sneezes. He is then reunited with Jackie, who returns with Very Long and his chicken soup to cure the living sneezes of their colds, making them happy. They then return Hannalee to its happy glory by singing.

           Once this is done, Puff and Jackie go back to Jackie's room and return Jackie to his body. Puff tells Jackie that thanks to his creativity he is now a brave boy and leaves, saying he will return to visit. Jackie's parents come into the room to find Jackie happy and talking again. They then hug Jackie and express their love for him. The film ends with Puff asking the audience if they just saw a dragon walk by, similar to what he asked Jackie at the beginning of the story.

Assignment 1 Narrative Text

Definition of narrative text 

The telling of a story or an account of a sequence of events. One of the four traditional forms of composition (along with description, exposition, and persuasion). Narration differs from exposition, which can also relate a sequence of events, in that narration need not be factual and may be written from the perspective of a character in the text.

Generic Stucture inside the text :

·         Orientation : The introducion of what is inside the text.What text is talk in general.Who invoves in the text.When and where it happen.

·         Complication :  What happens with the partisipants.It explores the conflict among the participants.Complocation is main element of narative.Without complication,the text is not narrative.The conflict can be show as natural,social or psychological conflict.

·         Resolution  : This is the phase where the participants solve the problrm arounsed by the conflict.It is not matter whether the participants succeed or fail.The point is the conflict becomes ended.



Language features narrative text :

·         Action verbs : Action verbs provide interest to the writing. For example, instead of The old woman was in his way try The old woman barred his path. Instead of She laughed try She cackled.
·         Written in the first person (I, we) or the third person (he, she, they).
·         Usually past tense.
·         Connectives,linking words to do with time.
·         Specific nouns:  Strong nouns have more specific meanings, eg. oak as opposed to tree.
·         Active nouns : Make nouns actually do something, eg. It was raining could become Rain splashed down or There was a large cabinet in the lounge could become A large cabinet seemed to fill the lounge.
·         Careful use of adjectives and adverbs: Writing needs judicious use of adjectives and adverbs to bring it alive, qualify the action and provide description and information for the reader.
·         Use of the senses: Where appropriate, the senses can be used to describe and develop the experiences, setting and character:
              1.      What does it smell like?
              2.      What can be heard?
              3.      What can be seen – details?
              4.      What does it taste like?
              5.      What does it feel like?
·         Imagery
             1.      Simile: A direct comparison, using like or as or as though, eg. The sea looked as rumpled as a blue quilted dressing gown. Or The wind wrapped me up like a cloak.
            2.      Metaphor: An indirect or hidden comparison, eg. She has a heart of stone or He is a stubborn mule or The man barked out the instructions.
            3.      Onomatopoeia: A suggestion of sound through words, eg. crackle, splat, ooze, squish, boom,The tyres whir on the road. The pitter-patter of soft rain. The mud oozed and squished through my toes. eg.
            4.      Personification: Giving nonliving things (inanimate) living characteristics, eg.The steel beam clenched its muscles. Clouds limped across the sky. The pebbles on the path were grey with grief.
·         Rhetorical Questions: Often the author asks the audience questions, knowing of course there will be no direct answer. This is a way of involving the reader in the story at the outset, eg. Have you ever built a tree hut?
·         Variety in sentence beginnings. There are a several ways to do this eg by using:

              1.      Participles: “Jumping with joy I ran home to tell mum my good news.”
              2.      Adverbs: “Silently the cat crept toward the bird”
              3.      Adjectives: “Brilliant sunlight shone through the window”
              4.      Nouns: “Thunder claps filled the air”
               5.      Adverbial Phrases: “Along the street walked the girl as if she had not a care in the world.”
·         Conversations/Dialogue: these may be used as an opener. This may be done through a series of short or one-word sentences or as one long complex sentence.
·         Show, Don’t Tell:  Students have heard the rule “show, don’t tell” but this principle is often difficult for some writers to master.
·         Personal Voice:  It may be described as writing which is honest and convincing. The author is able to ‘put the reader there’. The writer invests something of him/her self in the writing. The writing makes an impact on the reader. It reaches out and touches the reader. A connection is made.

Example Of Narrative text


The Monkeys and The Cap Seller

Once, a cap seller was passing through a jungle. He was very tired and needed to rest. Then, he stopped and spread a cloth under a tree. He placed his bag full of caps near him and lay down with his cap on his head.
The cap seller had a sound sleep for one hour. When he got up, the first thing he did was to look into his bag. He was startled when he found all his caps were not there.
When he looked up the sky, he was very surprised to see monkeys sitting on the branches of a tree, each of the monkeys is wearing a cap of on its head. They had evidently done it to imitate him
He decided to get his caps back by making a humble request to the monkeys. In return, the monkeys only made faces of him. When he begun to make gesture, the monkeys also imitated him.
At last he found a clever idea. " Monkeys are a great imitator," he thought. So he took off his own cap and threw it down on the ground. And as he had expected, all the monkeys took off the caps and threw the caps down on the ground. Quickly, he stood up and collected the caps, put them back into his bag and went away.

The generic structure of above narrative story is:

Orientation: The cap seller as the participant (main character), once time as time setting, and in thejungle as place setting. We note from discussion that the elements of orientation is shortly answering who, when and where of the story.


Complication: The cap seller wants the monkeys to bring back his caps but the monkeys do not return them. Of course this makes the cap seller face a problem. Complication in a narrative text is not always in single problem. That is we know a major conflict and minor conflict.


Resolution: The cap seller gets the monkey to bring back the cap by acting of throwing his own cap. The monkeys imitate what he has done so the problem is is solved. This story has happy ending as the cap seller has his caps returned.

Puisi

Falling In Love


Disaat aku terpuruk sendiri
Disaat aku menangis 
Disaat ku menatap masalalu suram
Hatiku hancur tidak karuan 

Tapi.......
Kau hadir bawa senyuman
Kau hadir dengan sejuta perhatian
Kau hadir membawa belaian kasih sayang
Dan kau hadir membawa sejuta cinta untukku

Ketika itu kau mampu mengubah jenuhku
Mengubah bosanku,mengubah kesedihanku
Kau mampu membuatku bahagia
Membuatku merasa sempurna dan utuh sebagai manusia

Tuhan begitu adil
Tuhan begitu dasyatnya.
Menciptakan mahkluk yang begitu sempurna
Ku bersyukur atas karunia-Mu

Kini bunga jiwa telah tumbuh dihatiku
Akan ku siram dengan rasa sayangku
Akan ku pupuk dengan sejuta cintaku
Akan ku rawat dengan belaian kasihku
Seperti aku merawat bunga mawar yang indah
Tak akan ku biarkan layu begitu saja

Sejarah Penemu microsoft


BILL GATES & PAUL ALLEN – Penemu MICROSOFT


 William Henry Gates III atau lebih terkenal dengan sebutan Bill Gates, lahir di Seatle , Washington pada tanggal 28 Oktober 1955. Ayah Bill, Bill Gates Jr., bekerja di sebuah firma hukum sebagai seorang pengacara dan ibunya, Mary, adalah seorang mantan guru. Bill adalah anak kedua dari tiga bersaudara. Sejak kecil Bill mempunyai hobi “hiking”, bahkan hingga kini pun kegiatan ini masih sering dilakukannya bila ia sedang “berpikir”.
Bill kecil mampu dengan mudah melewati masa sekolah dasar dengan nilai sangat memuaskan, terutama dalam pelajaran IPA dan Matematika. Mengetahui hal ini orang tua Bill, kemudian menyekolahkannya di sebuah sekolah swasta yang terkenal dengan pembinaan akademik yang baik, bernama ” LAKESIDE “. Pada saat itu, Lakeside baru saja membeli sebuah komputer, dan dalam waktu seminggu, Bill Gates, Paul Allen dan beberapa siswa lainnya (sebagian besar nantinya menjadi programmer pertama MICROSOFT) sudah menghabiskan semua jam pelajaran komputer untuk satu tahun.
Kemampuan komputer Bill Gates sudah diakui sejak dia masih bersekolah di Lakeside.Dimulai dengan meng”hack” komputer sekolah, mengubah jadwal, dan penempatan siswa. Tahun 1968, Bill Gates, Paul Allen, dan dua hackers lainnya disewa oleh Computer Center Corp untuk menjadi tester sistem keamanan perusahaan tersebut. Sebagai balasan, mereka diberikan kebebasan untuk menggunakan komputer perusahaan. Menurut Bill saat itu lah mereka benar-benar dapat “memasuki” komputer. Dan disinilah mereka mulai mengembangkan kemampuan menuju pembentukan Microsoft, 7 tahun kemudian.

      Selanjutnya kemampuan Bill Gates semakin terasah. Pembuatan program sistem pembayaran untuk Information Science Inc, merupakan bisnis pertamanya. Kemudian bersama Paul Ellen mendirikan perusahaan pertama mereka yang disebut Traf-O-Data. Mereka membuat sebuah komputer kecil yang mampu mengukur aliran lalu lintas. Bekerja sebagai debugger di perusahaan kontrkator pertahanan TRW, dan sebagai penanggungjawab komputerisasi jadwal sekolah, melengkapi pengalaman Bill Gates.
Musim gugur 1973, Bill Gates berangkat menuju Harvard University dan terdaftar sebagai siswa fakultas hukum. Bill mampu dengan baik mengikuti kuliah, namun sama seperti ketika di SMA, perhatiannya segera beralih ke komputer. Selama di Harvard, hubungannya dengan Allen tetap dekat. Bill dikenal sebagai seorang jenius di Harvard. Bahkan salah seorang guru Bill mengatakan bahwa Bill adalah programmer yang luar biasa jenius, namun seorang manusia yang menyebalkan.
Desember 1974, saat hendak mengunjungi Bill Gates, Paul Allen membaca artikel majalah Popular Electronics dengan judul “World`s First Microcomputer Kit to Rival Commercial Models”. Artikel ini memuat tentang komputer mikro pertama Altair 9090. Allen kemudian berdiskusi dengan Bill Gates. Mereka menyadari bahwa era “komputer rumah” akan segera hadir dan meledak, membuat keberadaan software untuk komputer – komputer tersebut sangat dibutuhkan. Dan ini merupakan kesempatan besar bagi mereka.

          Kemudian dalam beberapa hari, Gates menghubungi perusahaan pembuat Altair, MITS (Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems). Dia mengatakan bahwa dia dan Allen, telah membuat BASIC yang dapat digunakan pada Altair. Tentu saja ini adalah bohong. Bahkan mereka sama sekali belum menulis satu baris kode pun. MITS, yang tidak mengetahui hal ini, sangat tertarik pada BASIC. Dalam waktu 8 minggu BASIC telah siap. Allen menuju MITS untuk mempresentasikan BASIC. Dan walaupun, ini adalah kali pertama bagi Allen dalam mengoperasikan Altair, ternyata BASIC dapat bekerja dengan sempurna. Setahun kemudian Bill Gates meninggalkan Harvard dan mendirikan Microsoft.

          Kisah Bill Gates Meninggalkan Harvard Demi Mengejar ImpianKetika ia bosan dengan Harvard, Gates melamar pekerjaan-pekerjaan yang berhubungan dengan komputer di daerah Boston .. Gates mendorong Paul Allen untuk mencoba melamar sebagai pembuat program di Honey-well agar keduanya dapat melanjutkan impian mereka untuk mendirikan sebuah perusahaan perangkat lunak.
Pada suatu hari di bulan Desember yang beku, Paul Allen melihat sampul depan majalah Popular Mechanics, terbitan Januari 1975, yaitu gambar komputer mikro rakitan baru yang revolusioner MITS Altair 8080 (Komputer kecil ini menjadi cikal bakal PC di kemudian hari). Kemudian Allen menemui Gates dan membujuknya bahwa mereka harus mengembangkan sebuah bahasa untuk mesin kecil sederhana itu. Allen terus mengatakan, Yuk kita dirikan sebuah perusahaan. Yuk kita lakukan.
Kami sadar bahwa revolusi itu bisa terjadi tanpa kami. Setelah kami membaca artikel itu, tak diragukan lagi dimana kami akan memfokuskan hidup kami.

          Kedua sahabat itu bergegas ke sebuah komputer Harvard untuk menulis sebuah adaptasi dari program bahasa BASIC. Gates dan Allen percaya bahwa komputer kecil itu dapat melakukan keajaiban. Dari sana pula mereka mempunyai mimpi, tersedianya sebuah komputer di setiap meja tulis dan di setiap rumah tangga.

         Semangat Allen dan Gates tidak percuma. Berawal dari komputer kecil itulah yang menjadi mode dari segala macam komputansi. Dan sekarang bisa Anda lihat bahwa PC telah benar-benar menjadi alat jaman informasi. Dan hampir setiap orang mengenal Bill Gates sebagai orang terkaya di dunia saat ini.
