🗞Generic Structure News Item Text🗞

     News Item Text

News item text is text that functions to convey events every day. Usually the events that are written down are events that are important and recent. This type of text can be found in newspapers. 

To make it easier to determine what text is being read, the following features of the news item text will be shared:

○ Use action verbs or dynamic verbs (verbs that denote activity). 

○Dominant uses saying verbs. 

○Use the adverb of place, adverb of time, and adverb of manner. 

GENERIC STRUCTURE To make this type of text is not difficult. In the following section, we will share ways to create news item text based on a generic structure. So that it will form a good and correct text. 

 1. Main events

 The main incident deserves to be news. In the first paragraph there will be a newsworthy event where this paragraph introduces the background of something happening and where it starts. This paragraph is more like an introduction. 

Example: 

Seven people were killed in a collision between a bus, a car and a truck at 10:35 p.m. on Jalan Sultan last night

 2. Elaboration

 

 After knowing a glimpse of the incident that was raised, the reader will be brought into several situations that usually provide supporting ideas for the main event. This supporting idea is packaged in a paragraph after the newsworthy event which is commonly known as elaboration. Elaboration itself can also be the causes of the main events. This is where an explanation of the main events in the language includes time, actor, occurrence, etc. 

Example : 

The dead were all passengers in the car. Police believe the car may have been trying to overtake the bus when it was struck by a truck coming from the opposite direction. The driver of the car may not have been using his lights, as the truck driver said he did not see the car approaching.

3. Source 

In this last stage, a learner will see for himself the characteristics of news item text. Because this type of text is news text so that a valid news source is something absolute so it is necessary to have a source listed either in the form of experts, experts' notes or research conducted by experts.

Example : 

The police said the car should not have been trying to pass the bus, since overtaking is not allowed on Jalan Sultan. In addition, the police reported that the car–a small Japanese car–should not have been carrying more than five people. The names of the victims are not yet known.
