The document discusses the characteristics of snakes, noting that they are reptiles belonging to the same group as lizards but in their own sub-group. It describes how snakes have scales rather than skin and how they use sunbathing to heat their bodies as cold-blooded creatures. Most snakes are said to live on the ground in places like burrows and thick grass.

3. 1. Siswa mampu mengidentifikasi fungsi sosial,
struktur teks dan unsur kebahasaan yakni action
verbs dalam teks ilmiah faktual sesuai dengan
konteks penggunaannya.
2. Siswa mampu menyusun teks lisan dan tertulis
mengenai teks ilmiah faktual dengan

4. An action verb or “active verb,” shows an
action, feeling, or process. An action verb is
also known as a “dynamic verb,” and it is
opposite to a “static verb,” in that it is mostly
used with an active voice. An action verb
expresses an action that an animal, object or
person can do.

5.  An action verb may be used to refer to a thought:
“Dolly thought about project. She wanted a good
reward.”
 An action verb can be used in the present, past,
or future tense:
◦ “The tiger runs very fast.” present
◦ “The tiger ran through our courtyard.” past
◦ “The tiger will run through the forest.” future SM
 An action verb can be used with helping verbs:
“Will you ride with me to football practice?” SM

6. The basic function of an action verb is to
express the action that a SUBJECT performs. An
action verb specifically states or demonstrates
the subject’s action in a sentence. An action
verb conveys information, emotion, and a
sense of purpose that extends beyond the
literal meaning of a sentence.

15.  Antibiotic is a drug produced by certain microbes. Antibiotics destroy other
microbes that damage human tissues. They are used to treat a wide variety of
diseases, including gonorrhea, tonsillitis and tuberculosis. Antibiotics are
sometimes called ‘wonder drugs’ because they can cure diseases such as
meningitis, pneumonia and scarlet fever. But when the antibiotics are overused, or
misused, these drugs make a person sensitive being attacked by a superbug.
 Antibiotics do not always distinguish between harmless and dangerous microbes.
If a drug destroys too many harmless micro-organism, the pathogenic ones -the
dangerous microbes- will have a greater chance to multiply. This situation often
leads to the development of a new infection called superinfection. Extensive use of
some antibiotics may damage organs and tissues. For example, streptomycin,
which is used to treat tuberculosis, has caused kidney damage and deafness.
 Resistance to antibiotics may be acquired by pathogenic microbes. The resistant
microbes transfer genetic material to non-resistant microbes and cause them to
become resistant. During antibiotic treatment, non-resistant microbes are
destroyed, but resistant types survive and multiply.
 To avoid the side effect of antibiotics, you’d better not urge your doctor to
prescribe antibiotics. Keep in mind that antibiotics are only useful for bacterial
infections and have no effect on viruses, so they cannot be used for children pox,
measles, and other viral diseases.

34. Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the
same group as lizards (the scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-
group of their own (Serpentes).
Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help
them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales
which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to
reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.
Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is
because snakes are cold-blooded; they need the sun’s warmth to
heat their bodies up.
Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in
tress, some live in water, but most live on the ground in deserted
rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.
A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizard, and mice and
other snakes. The Anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even
bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs. Some
snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like the Cobra.
The flying snakes glide away from danger. Their ribs spread apart
and the skin stretches out. Its technique is just like the sugar
gliders.
