Skeleton


Take a look at yourself in the mirror. You will see that you can stand upright. Do you know why?

Human can stand upright because there is skeleton inside his body. Human skeleton is located inside the body and covered with muscle (flesh) and skin, therefore it called internal skeleton (endoskeleton). Muscle covering the skeleton move the bones so that we can move.
Some animals have skeleton on the outside of their body, it is called external skeleton (exoskeleton); the examples are crab, grasshopper, and shrimp. However, in this chapter, we will only learn about human skeleton.
Human skeleton is devided into three parts, namely skull, body skeleton, and axtremities skeleton.

BATTER LATE THAN NEVER

BATTER LATE THAN NEVER

Being on picket duty (karena tugas piket), Mr. Bambang was very disciplined. He would punish (menghukum) the students who came late or who disobeyed (melanggar) the rules (peraturan) of school.
Priyo was a lazy student (siswa malas). He had been late for more than (lebih dari) ten times (10x) in that semester though (meskipun) he lived in a village (desa) not far from his school. It took (memakan) only five minutes on foot (jalan kaki) from his house to school.
Yesterday he was late again. Actually (sebenarnya) he wanted to come on time (tepat waktu). He failed (gagal) to do so because his father, who worked (kerja) in Jakarta had just returned home (kembali pulang) sick (sakit).
“Coming late again Priyo?” asked Mr. Bambang.
“Is it because of (karena) transportation?getting up late?Motorcycle?Changing school uniforms?Taking books being left at home?or something else?asked Mr. Bambang annoyingly (dengan jengkel).
“No, Sir,”Priyo answered. His face looked (kelihatan) pale (pucat). Priyo tried to explain why, but Mr. Bambang did not want to hear (mendengar) his excuse (alasan).
Mr. Bambang did not say anything for a while (untuk beberapa saat). He was thingking about the punishment (hukum) he wanted to give. Then he opened priyo’s records (catatan) from month to month (dari bulan ke bulan). He also consulted (konsultasi) with other teachers.
Finally (akhirnya), Mr. Bambang decided (memutuskan), “You’d better (lebih baik) go home (pulang) now.”
Priyo tried again to explain the reason (alasan) why he came late again. He said the truth (sebenarnya) what really (sebenarnta) happened (terjadi) to him.
Hearing (mendengar) the order (perintah), Priyo argued (membantah) and said immediately (dengan segera), “All right, Sir (Baik, Pak). This is my fault (salahku), but what is this saying for?(Untuk apa peribahasa ini?) “Better Late Than Never.” (Lebih baik terlambat daripada tidak sama sekali).
Hearing that, Priyo’s friends laughed (tertawa).
