 RECOUNT TEXT 

On Tuesday, February 13 2024, Mrs. Yuni, as the English teacher, told my friends and I to look for 3 examples of recount text.

1. Fatigue 

Last Friday was a tiring day. I spent the whole day doing lot of activities and had no time to take a rest.

First, I went cycling to school in the morning. Then, I studied until 14.00. After school, I went to football practice in the field.

It was a hard training day and drained my energy.

After that, I went home and took a shower. Before getting ready to sleep, I remembered that there were homeworks and some projects I still had to do.

I did my homework until 22.00 and finished some video editing for my project until 01.00. Only until then, I could take a rest.

Those activities made me exhausted. Perhaps I will reduce my activities in the future.

2. A Trip to the National Zoo and Aquarium

On November 5th, 2023, a total solar eclipse occurred over several parts of South America. This rare astronomical event was visible in regions of Chile and Argentina. The eclipse began at 10:00 AM local time and reached its peak totality at 11:30 AM, lasting for approximately 2 minutes.

Thousands of people gathered at designated viewing spots to witness this spectacular natural phenomenon. Scientists and astronomy enthusiasts had been preparing for this event for months, and they set up telescopes and observation equipment to study the eclipse's effects on the surrounding environment.

During the eclipse, the moon completely blocked the sun, casting a shadow over the landscape and causing a noticeable drop in temperature. Birds and wildlife became momentarily disoriented, and the sudden darkness created a surreal atmosphere.

Observers marveled at the corona, the sun's outer atmosphere, which became visible during totality. It was an awe-inspiring moment for all those in attendance, and many people captured the eclipse through photography and video recordings.

The event concluded as the moon continued its path, gradually revealing the sun. Scientists collected valuable data, and the general public experienced a rare and memorable celestial event.

The next total solar eclipse in this region is expected in several years, making this event a remarkable and scientifically significant occurrence.

3. Vacation to Borobudur temple

 Three years ago, I and my classmates visited Borobudur Temple. We went to Borobudur temple by bus. We left our school at nine o’clock. It took us 24 hours to arrive there. I arrived there nine o’clock the next day. Along the road, we saw many vehicles, unique houses, prominent buildings, and some other tourists.

After we arrived at the Borobudur temple, one of my teachers went to buy tickets. After we waited him for a moment we entered into Borobudur temple area. Then we went up to the top of the temple. 

Borobudur temple was built at Budur Village, Magelang, Jawa Tengah by Syailendra Dynasty. Borobudur Temple is the biggest temple in the world. It has 504 statues and 1.400 reliefs. From the top of the temple we can see such beautiful scenery. I and my friends went around the temple together. Finally, after having some visits, we should go to the hotel to stay and continue our study tour the next day.

We felt tired that day but we felt so happy to visit Borobudur temple which is well-known as one of the greatest legacies Indonesia has ever had. I hope the temple can be loved by all of the visitors and the government.
