PREFACE

Thanks to the God, this book had already done for all of the students. I also say thank you
for my family, my husband, all of my best friends, my children, and all of my friends. I got spirit to
do everything for the kindness especially for education.

Based on UU Sisdiknas in 2003 and the government roles no. 19 in 2005 we were hoped in
each years united of education capable and develop KTSP in addition quality of education in an
area

To the student
Why are you learning English? Is it because you don’t have any choice about the matter?
Or, is it because you want to learn a language that can help you to improve your communication
skills and give you chance to have a better future?

English is the international language of the world. If you want to be successful in the future,
you need to have excellent English language skills. These are just a few of the many reasons why
you need to be good at English:

 You need to be fluent in English if you intend to continue your studies at university
Many textbooks are written in English and if you want to use the internet for research,most
research papers are also written in English.

 You need to be fluent in English if you want to have a successful career in the future.
English is the international language of businesses all around the world. Both national and
international companies in Indonesia recognise this fact and need employees and managers
who have excellent English skills.

 You need to be fluent in English if you want to travel and truly experience the wonders of
our multicultural world. English is spoken almost everywhere. If you want to communicate
with other people you must have good English skills.

Learning English can open up many doors for you in the future. Using real English will help
to make this learning process both easier and hopefully more enjoyable for you. By using real
English you will learn English as it is used in the real world by native speakers. You will be given
opportunities to hear the words that you read,’cometo life’, when they are spoken by native
speakers

If you use real English well and take all the opportunities that it gives you to develop your
English language skills, you will be able to move towards a higher level of understanding and
competence that will help you to stand out from the crowd. We live in a very competitive world. If
you want to be successful, you must work as hard as you can and do your best at all times. This
module will help you to do this. Work hard and good luck for your future.

To the teacher

This book is different! It deals with English as it is used by real people all around the world.
Some of English teacher use a style of English that is simply not used in the real world. We need a
new approach, contemporary, or meaningful, despite the fact that they teach students English that is
either incorrect or very outdated.

3
This book gives teachers opportunities to present the most up to date and real English to
their students using universal topics which have been selected from a wide variety of material. The
aim of this book is to provide students with material that they will find interesting and that will
stimulate their minds and encourage them to went to participate more in the learning process.

This book is a practical which relies on teachers having a practical, rather than a theoretical,
approach to language learning. Students could memorise every grammar rule aver written and yet
still not have the ability to speak fluently or to understand tohe spoken or written word. This is why
all four language skills have been fully integrated in each unit,even though individual tesks may
emphasise the development of particular skills. Each unit also has an ‘english for everyday use’
section, which develops students’ knowledge and understanding especially in writing of every day
functional language. It is hoped that the development of students’ writing skills will be particulary
enhanced by the privision of the real English from the explanation the teacher by using this book.

This book combines the best of traditional teaching methods with a truly fresh approach to
help and encourage students to learn how to use English accurately and fluently. It is hoped that
teachers will enjoy using This book and that it might even provide a stimulus to their own creativity
in the way that they help their students to learn.

I’ll leave the final words to the other teacher, William Butler Yeats.

Education is not the filling of the a pail, but the lighting of a fire

“The Story Of Bawang Merah Dan Bawang Putih”
BAWANG Putih lived with her step mother and her step sister, Bawang Merah. Bawang Putih's
mother died when she was a baby. Her father remarried another woman and later her step sister
was born. Unfortunately, not long after that her father died. Since then, Bawang Putih's life was
sad. Her step mother and her step sister treated Bawang Putih badly and always asked her to do
all the household chores.

One morning, Bawang Putih was washing some clothes in a river. Accidentally, her mother's
clothes were washed away by the river. She was really worried so she walked along the river
side to find the clothes. Finally she met an old woman. She said that she kept the clothes and
would give them back to Bawang Putih if she helped the old woman do the household chores.
Bawang Putih helped her happily. After everything was finished, the old woman returned the
clothes. She also gave Bawang Putih a gift. The old woman had two pumpkins, one pumpkin
was small and the other one was big. Bawang Putih had to choose one.

Bawang Putih was not a greedy girl. So she took the small one. After thanking the old woman,
Bawang Putih then went home. When she arrived home, her step mother and Bawang Merah
were angry. They had been waiting for her all day long. Bawang Putih then told about the
clothes, the old woman, and the pumpkin. Her mother was really angry so she grabbed the
pumpkin and smashed it to the floor. Suddenly they all were surprised. Inside the pumpkin they
found jewelries. "Bawang Merah, hurry up. Go to the river and throw my clothes into the water.
After that, find the old woman. Remember, you have to take the big pumpkin," the step mother
asked Bawang Merah to do exactly the same as Bawang Putih's experience. Bawang Merah
immediately went to the river. She threw the clothes and pretended to search them. Not long
after that, she met the old woman. Again she asked Bawang Merah to do household chores. She
refused and asked the old woman to give her a big pumpkin. The old woman then gave her the
big one. Bawang Merah was so happy. She ran very fast. When she arrived home, her mother
was impatient. She directly smashed the pumpkin to the floor. They were screaming. There
were a lot of snakes inside the pumpkin! They were really scared. They were afraid the snakes
would bite them. "Mom, I think God just punished us. We had done bad things to Bawang
Putih. And God didn't like that. We have to apologize to Bawang Putih," said Bawang Merah.

Finally both of them realized their mistakes. They apologized and Bawang Putih forgave them.
Now the family is not poor anymore. Bawang Putih decided to sell all the jewelries and used the
money for their daily lives.

“The Myth of Malin Kundang”

A long time ago, in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra, a woman and her son
lived. They were Malin Kundang and her mother. Her mother was a single parent because
Malin Kundang's father had passed away when he was a baby. Malin Kundang had to live
hard with his mother.
Malin Kundang was a healthy, dilligent, and strong boy. He usually went to sea to catch fish.
After getting fish he would bring it to his mother, or sold the caught fish in the town.
One day, when Malin Kundang was sailing, he saw a merchant's ship which was being raided
by a small band of pirates. He helped the merchant. With his brave and power, Malin
Kundang defeated the pirates. The merchant was so happy and thanked to him. In return the
merchant asked Malin Kundang to sail with him. To get a better life, Malin Kundang agreed.
He left his mother alone.
Many years later, Malin Kundang became wealthy. He had a huge ship and was helped by
many ship crews loading trading goods. Perfectly he had a beautiful wife too. When he was
10
sailing his trading journey, his ship landed on a beach near a small village. The villagers
recognized him. The news ran fast in the town; “Malin Kundang has become rich and now he
is here”.
An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant. She was Malin Kundang’s
mother. She wanted to hug him, released her sadness of being lonely after so long time.
Unfortunately, when the mother came, Malin Kundang who was in front of his well dressed
wife and his ship crews denied meeting that old lonely woman. For three times her mother
begged Malin Kundang and for three times he yelled at her. At last Malin Kundang said to
her "Enough, old woman! I have never had a mother like you, a dirty and ugly woman!"
After that he ordered his crews to set sail. He would leave the old mother again but in that
time she was full of both sadness and angriness.
Finally, enraged, she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a stone if he didn't
apologize. Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail.
In the quiet sea, suddenly a thunderstorm came. His huge ship was wrecked and it was too
late for Malin Kundang to apologize. He was thrown by the wave out of his ship. He fell on a
small island. It was really too late for him to avoid his curse. Suddenly, he turned into a
stone.

poor little sparrow. She took it gently and fed it. To show its gratitude, the sparrow stayed with
them and sang every morning. But there was an ill-tempered old woman who didn't like the
sparrow. She cut the sparrow's tongue. That's why the bird flew away to its previous nest.

Knowing that their sparrow flew away, the kind man and his wife looked for the sparrow.
They walked a long way, crossed the bridges, climbed the mountains and passed the woods.

At last, they could find the sparrow's nest. The sparrow welcomed them and provided a feast
for them. Before they went home, the sparrow brought two baskets; one was large and looked
heavy, and the other one was small and light. The sparrow asked them to choose only one.
They chose the small and that was the best choice. There were many rolls of silk and piles of
gold in it.

Being jealous, the ill-tempered old woman did the same thing as the kind man and his wife
did. She chose the big basket which actually contained wasps and venomous crawlers, such as
scorpions, centipedes, and other horrible creatures. Finally, aaathey stung and bit her to death

A Lion, unable from old age and infirmities to provide himself with food by force, resolved to do so by
artifice. He returned to his den, and lying down there, pretended to be sick, taking care that his sickness
should be publicly known. The beasts expressed their sorrow, and came one by one to his den, where the
Lion devoured them. After many of the beasts had thus disappeared, the Fox discovered the trick and
presenting himself to the Lion, stood on the outside of the cave, at a respectful distance, and asked him how
he was. "I am very middling," replied the Lion, "but why do you stand without? Pray enter within to talk with
me." "No, thank you," said the Fox. "I notice that there are many prints of feet entering your cave, but I see
no trace of any returning."

Cerita Dongeng Kancil Lomba Lari dengan Siput

Cerita di bawah ini menceritakan tentang seekor kancil sombong yang mengajak siput untuk
berlomba lari lantaran siput memiliki kebiasaan berjalan lambat. Berikut cerita lengkapnya.

Pada suatu masa di dalam sebuah hutan, terdapat seekor kancil yang tengah berlarian. Kemudian, ia
tidak senjaga bertemu dengan seekor siput yang ada di pinggir sungai. Kancil yang sangat sombong
tersebut pun meledek tikus lantaran siput hanya mampu berjalan lambat sementara kancil bisa
berlari-lari sesuka hatinya.

Dengan sangat angkuh, akhirnya si kancil pun berkata kepada siput,

“Hai siput, apakah kamu berani beradu balapan lari denganku?” Ucap kancil dengan nada sombong
dan dia tahu bahwa sang siput sudah pasti akan menolak lantaran tidak pernah mungkin menang
mengalahkan sang kancil.

Namun, yang terjadi adalah di luar dugaan, ternyata siput tersebut menerima tantangan si kancil.
Akhirnya, keduanya membuat kesepakatan dan menentukan hari tanding mereka yang akan balapan
lari. Akhirnya, semua sepakat dan si kancil pun tidak sabar menunggu hari H dimana perlombaan
tersebut digelar.

Selama menunggu hari perlombaan, akhirnya siput mengatur suatu strategi. Siput mengajak teman
sesame siput yang lain untuk berkumpul dan menceritakan perihal tantangan dari si kancil yang
mengajak lomba lari dengan angkuh dan sombong. Akhirnya, mereka pun mendiskusikan sesuatu
agar berhasil menang di dalam pertandingan tersebut.

Strateginya adalah, di sepanjang tepi sungai, para siput harus berbaris dengan rapi dan ketika sang
kancil memanggil, maka yang ada di tepi tersebut harus menjawab si kancil. Begitu seterusnya
sampai di garis finish.

Akhirnya, saat yang dinanti-nanti pun tiba. Hampir seluruh penghuni hutan datang untuk
menyaksikan pertandingan balap lari antara si kancil dengan siput. Keduanya pun sudah siap berdiri
sama di garis start dan perlombaan siap dimulai.

Pemimpin adu lari bertanya kepada keduanya “apakah kalian sudah siap?” .
34
Keduanya pun menjawab “Siap”. Maka pemimpin adu lari tersebutpun mengatakan “Mulai!”.

Keduanya spontan berlari. Dan si kancil langsung berlari dengan memakai kekuatan penuhnya. Dan
sesudah beberapa jarak berlari, kancil pun merasa kelelahan. Nafasnya pun mulai tak karuan dan
terengah-engah. Ia pun berhenti sejenak di jalan sembari memanggil sang siput.

“Put siput” Ujar kancil.

“ya aku di sini” jawab siput sembari berjalan dengan lamban di hadapan sang kancil.

Si kancil pun merasa kaget lantaran siput tersebut sudah ada tepat dihadapannya. Ia pun tidak jadi
istirahat dan langsung bergegas berlari sekuat tenaga. Ia pun merasa sangat lelah dan mulai
kehausan. Nafasnya seperti hampir habis dan terengah-engah. Saat itu, ia kembali memanggil sang
siput.

Saat itu, kancil mengira bahwa siput masih ada di belakang dia. Padahal ternyata siput tersebur
sudah ada di depannya. Siput puh menjawab sebagaimana strategi yang diatur sebelumnya. Melihat
hal tersebut, akhirnya kancil pun kembali berlari. Hingga akhirnya ia merasa sangat lelah dan tidak
kuat lagi. Alhasil, ia pun menyerah kepada siput.

Cerita Dongeng Kera Menjadi Raja Hutan

suatu masa di tengah hutan rimba belantara, ada suara singa yang menjadi raja hutan. Singa tersebut
sedang mengeram kesakitan lantaran tertembak oleh salah seorang pemburu hutan. Mendengar
kejadian tersebut, seluruh penghuni di hutam rimba merasa gelisah lantaran mereka tidak lagi
memiliki raja. Raja satu-satunya yang mereka miliki sudah ditembak pemburu.

Para penghuni hutan rimba akhirnya berkumpul bersama untuk pemilihan raja hutan. Mereka pun
melakukan diskusi untuk mencari raja hutan baru. Yang mula-mula dipilih adalah macan tutul.
Namun, ia menolak dengan alasan ia melihat manusia saja sudah takut dan berlari.

Binatang lain pun berkata, “apabila macan tutul tidak bersedia, kalau begitu badak karena badak
sangat kuat”

Namun di badak juga menolak “aku tidak mau karena aku memiliki penglihatan yang kurang baik
sehingga sering menabrak pepohonan”

Kemudian binatang yang lain berkata “yang pantas adalah di gajah karena badannya paling besar”

“Tubuhku memiliki gerakan yang sangat lambat dan tidak bisa berkelahi” jawab si gajah. Ia juga
melanjutkan “Mungkin untuk hari ini bisa dicukupkan dulu dan dilanjutkan besok”

Namun, ketika semua hendak bubar, kera pun berteriak “Bagaimana jika manusia saja yang
dijadikan sebagai raja, ia kan sudah menembak singa”

Tupai pun menjawab “Tidak mungkin”

“Cobalah kalian memperhatikanku, bukankah aku sangat mirip dengan manusia? Maka aku adalah
binatang yang tepat untuk menjadi raja kalian” Ujar si kera.

Sesudah dirundingkan, akhirnya semua yang hadir setuju bahwa yang menggantikan singa sebagai
raja hutan adalah kera. Ia pun menjadi raja hutan baru.

36
Namun, ketika menjadi raja, kera memiliki tingkah yang tidak layak menjadi seorang raja. Ia hanya
hidup bermalas-malasan. Akhirnya semua binatang marah kepadanya. Akhirnya para suatu hari
srigala mengajak kera ke suatu tempat untuk menyantap makanan. Dan kera pun mengiyakan.

Akhirnya, si kera menyantap berbagai hidangan yang ada di sana. Akhirnya, kera tersebut terkena
jebakan dari manusia dan itu membuatnya terperosok ke dalam lubang tanah. Saat ia minta tolong
tidak ada yang menolongnya karena ia adalah raja yang bodoh dan tidak bisa melindungi rakyatnya.
Akhirnya, ia ditinggalkan di dalam lubang tersebut.

Semua penghuni hutan merasa terkejut kancil bisa mengalah kepada siput.

Cerita Dongeng Raja Bijak Menguji Rakyatnya

37
Pada suatu ketika, terdapat seorang raja bijaksana yang hendak menguji kerajinan serta kepedulian
dari rakyat. Raja secara diam-diam menaruh batu di tengah jalan yang kerap dilewati orang. Ini ia
lakukan di sore hari. Batu tersebut persis diletakkan di tengah jalan dan tentu saja sangat tidak enak
dilihat serta menghadang langkah orang yang melewatinya.

Raja tersebut senjaga hendak mengetahui sikap rakyat yang berjalan di jalanan tersebut. Ada
seorang petani dengan gerobaknya yang membawa bawaan penuh. Karena batu tersebut
menghalangi jalan, maka ia mengomel dan marah. Ia pun membelokkan gerobak untuk menghindari
batu itu.

Sesudah itu, seorang plajurit lewat sembari bernyanyi mengenai keberanian dia di medan perang.
Karena ia kurang melihat jalan, maka ia pun tersandung batunya. Ia pun marah-marah dan
megeluarkan pedang tanpa melakukan suatu tindakan apapun untuk mengingkirkan batu tersebut.
Bahkan, dia malah melangkahi batu tersebut.

Tidak lama sesudah itu, salah seorang pemuda miskin yang membawa gerobak juga lewat jalan
tersebut. Saat melihat batu tersebut, dalam hati ia berkata, “Hari sudah semakin gelap, jika orang-
orang melewati jalan ini dan mereka tidak berhati-hati, maka mereka akan tersandung dan celaka”.

Meski ia sudah bekerja dengan sangat keras seharian, namun pemuda yang melintasi batu tersebut
mencoba untuk memindahkan batu dengan amat susah payah ke pinggiran jalan. Namun, ia sangat
terkejut ketika melihat ada benda yang ditanam di bawah batu tersebut.

Terdapat sepucuk surat yang bunyinya adalah, “Untuk rakyatku yang sudah ikhlas memindahkan
batu penghalang di sini. Dikarenakan engkau adalah orang yang peduli dan rajin, maka terimalah
lima kepingan emas dariku sebagai hadiah di dalam kotak ini. Dari rajamu”.

Akhirnya, pemuda miskin tersebut mengucapkan syukur kepada Tuhan dan juga memuji betapa
dermawan rajanya. Peristiwa tersebut akhirnya mampu menggemparkan semua negeri. Di sini raja
memang sudah mengajarkan pelajaran penting mengenai nilai kerajinan dan kepedulian terhadap
sesame manusia.

Kisah Burung Hantu Yang Tua dan Belalang

Di suatu hari, ada sebuah pohon tua yang di dalamnya hidup burung hantu pemarah dan juga galak.
Apalagi jika ada yang mengganggu tidurnya di siang hari. Dan saat malam hari, mereka bangun
dengan suaranya sambil mencari serangga, katak, tikus, dan juga kumbang untuk dimakan.

Pada sore hari di musim panas, burung hantu tidur lelap di lubang pohon. Namun, tiba-tiba ada
belalang yang sedang bernyanyi. Burung hantu terganggu akan hal itu dan meminta belalang untuk
pergi dari sana.

“Hei, pergi dari sisi kau belalang! Apa kamu tak punya sopan santun mengganggu tidur orang yang
sudah tua?”

Namun, belalang menjawab hal itu dengan nada kasar bahwa ia juga memiliki hak atas pohon
tersebut. Bahkan, ia bernyanyi dengan suara yang lebih keras. Burung hantu menyadari bahwa
berdebat pun tidak akan ada gunanya. Sementara siang hari matanya masih rabun sehingga ia tidak
bisa memberi hukuman kepada belalang tersebut.

Akhirnya, burung hantu berfikir mengenai cara untuk menghukum sang belalang. Ia pun
menengokkan kepalanya ke lubang pohon dan berkata dengan sangat ramah.

“Hai belalang, jika aku terus bangun aku pasti mendengar kamu bernyanyi. Tahu tidak, ada
memiliki anggur di sini. Jika kau mau, kesinilah. Dengan memakan anggur ini, suaramu akan
seperti Apollo karena ini kiriman dari Olympus”.

Akhirnya, sang belalang terbawa hanyut oleh rayuan dan pujian burung hantu. Akhirnya ia
melompat ke sarang tersebut dan karena burung hantu sudah langsung bisa melihat belalang dengan
matanya, maka belalang langsung diterkam serta dimakan oleh burung hantu.

Hikayat Kerbau dan Sapi yang Bertukar Kulit

Pada suatu masa, ada kerbau dan sapi yang bersahabat. Sapi berkulit hitam kecoklatan sementara
kerbau berkulit putih. Pada suatu hari, datanglah pendatang baru di sebuah padang rumput, ia
adalah banteng yang memiliki tanduk runcing. Ia terlihat sangat gagah dan membuat rapi betina
kagum terhadapnya.

Kabar adanya banteng gagah tersebut tersebar dengan sangat cepat. Ia pun menjadi primadona. Sapi
jantan yang warnanya hitam kecoklatan tak begitu peduli. Namun, si karbau justru merasa iri dan
cemburu kepada banteng tersebut.

Ia berkata, “Apa sih hebatnya dia? Aku juga mempunyai tanduk yang besar dan runcing. Badan
juga gagah. Cuma hanya berbeda warna kulit saja. Seandainya kulitku hitam aku pasti lebih gagah
dibandingkan banteng itu”.

40
Ia pun memiliki ide untuk mengubah warna kulitnya. Ia pun mendatangi sapi yang tengah berendam
di sungai. Ia pun merayu sapi agar ia mau bertukar kulit. Namun, sapi tetap enggan karena ia
bersyukur dengan nikmat Tuhan.

Kerbau tetap saja membujuk sapi dan memohon atas nama persahabatan. Sapi pun akhirnya kasihan
dan bersedia tukar warna kulit. Namun, sapi memberi syarat bahwa sesudah bertukar, kerbau harus
bersyukur dengan apa yang dimiliki. Tanpa berfikir panjang, kerbau akhirnya menyanggupi.

Akhirnya mereka bertukar kulit, namun ternyata kulit si sapi terlalu kecil dan sempit untuk kerbau
yang besar. Sehingga pakainnya terasa sesak. Sementara kulit kerbau yang dipakai oleh sapi
kebesaran. Lantaran merasa kurang nyaman dengan kulitnya tersebut, kerbau kembali mengajak
sapi bertukar. Namun, sapi tidak mau.

Akhirnya, kerbau merengek kepada sapi minta bertukar kulit dimanapun mereka bertemu. Namun,
tetap saja sapi tidak mau bertukar. Akhirnya, sang kerbau menyesal karena sudah tidak mensyukuri
apa yang ia dapatkan dari Tuhannya. Padahal itu adalah yang terbaik untuknya.

Cerita Dongeng Si Kancil, Tikus dan Harimau

Pada suatu masa, di tengah hutan terdapat seekor tikus yang tengah asyik bermain. Ia bernyanyi dan
berkeliling sangat riang. Sehingga ia tidak menyadari bahwa sudah sangat jauh dengan rumah.
Sesudah sangat jauh dari rumah, sang tikus pun baru sadar. Ia pun langsung memilih untuk pulang
ke rumahnya namun ia malah tersesat di hutan.

Ketika ia sedang dalam keadaan bingung mencari jalan pulang, ia justru terjebak di sarang harimau.
Ia menyaksikan ada harimau jantan yang tengah tidur lelap dan si tikus pun merasa ketahkutan.
Karena saking paniknya melihat harimau, ia berlari dan tanpa sengaja menginjak kaki harimau.

Akhirnya harimau terbangun dah marah karena terganggu istirahatnya. Tikus tersebut akhirnya
ditangkap dengan kukunya yang tajam. Ia pun berusaha melepaskan diri dan memohon kepada
harimau untuk melepaskannya.

Namun sang harimau tetap saja tidak mau melepaskan tikus tersebut dan berkata bahwa ia merasa
sangat marah apabila ada yang mengganggunya. Tidak begitu jauh dari tempat tersebut, terdapat
seekor kancil yang tengah minum di tepi sungai.

Ia terkejut melihat kejadian itu. Dan basa basi kepada harimau. Namun harimau justru malah ingin
memakan kancil. Namun, dengan cepat ia berkata,

“Kenapa aku harus takut kepadamu sementara aku adalah raja hutan di sini. Jika kau tidak percaya,
tanyalah langsung kepada penasihatku. Penasihatku adalah orang yang saat ini ada di dalam
cengkramanmu. Ia adalah penasihat yang amat disegani di hutan ini. Maka aku tidak akan
memaafkanmu jika terjadi apa-apa dengan penasihatku”

Harimau pun terpengaruh oleh ucapan si kancil. Harimau kemudian bertanya kepada tikus
kebenaran yang dikatakan oleh kancil. Dan tikuspun sadar bahwa kancil berbohong untuk
menolongnya. Ia pun berkata,

“Ia benar, kancil adalah saja hutan ini. Dan aku menjadi penasihat dia. Kancil sangat ditakuti dan
disegani di hutan ini oleh seluruh binatang. Apabila tidak percaya, silahkan bertanya langsung
kepada seluruh hewan dihutan ini”

Harimau akhirnya takut dengan ucapan tikus namun tetap saja tidak menunjukkan rasa takutnya.
Akhirnya, kancil pun kebingungan bagaimana cara untuk membuktikan kekuatannya kepada
harimau. Akhirnya ia berusaha tenang dengan kepandaiannya sekalipun sesungguhnya ia merasa
takut.
42
Ia pun berkata bahwa ia baru saja mengalahkan harimau sebesar harimau tersebut. Dan itu membuat
harimau merasa sangat takut. Ia pun meminta kancil untuk membuktikan perkatannya bahwa kepala
harimau yang dia habisi masih ada di pinggiran rungai.

Akhirnya, kancil membawa harimau ke sumur yang gelap dan dalam. Namun ia tidak nampak
karena ada pantulan dari sinar matahari. Ia pun diminta untuk melihat kepala harimau di dalam
sumur. Alhasil, ia pun mengintip dan ternyata kepala harimau itu benar-benar ada.

Padahal sebenarnya di dalam sumur tersebut tidak ada apa-apa. Hanya saja harimau melihat
cerminan kapalanya sendiri. Melihat hal itu, harimau langsung lari ketakutan dari berlari. Dan
tikuspun bebas dari cengkraman harimau lantaran pertolongan dari kancil yang sangat cerdik itu.

Cerita Dongeng Asal Mula Ikan Duyung

Pada zaman dahulu, hiduplah sepasang suami istri dan ketiga anak mereka yang umurnya masih
kecil. Pada suatu pagi, mereka memakan nasi dan ikan. Masing-masing mendapatkan bagian.
Rupanya, ikan yang ada tidak habis dimakan dan suami pun memberikan pesan kepada istri,
“Istriku, ikan yang tersisa ini siapkan untuk makanan nanti sore”.

Ia pun mengiyakan pesan suaminya tersebut. Namun, pada saat makan siang, si bungsu tiba-tiba
menangis dan meminta ikan yang disimpan untuk hidangan sore nanti. Sementara suaminya masih
di kebun. Ia pun memberikan pengertian kepada sang anak bahwa ikan tersebut untuk makanan
ayah nanti sore.

Namun, si bungsu justru menangis dengan sangat keras. Akhirnya, sisa ikan tersebut ia berikan
kepada si bungsu dan tangisnya pun menjadi berhenti. Namun, sesudah bekerja di kebun selama
seharian, sang suami pulang dengan keadaan lapar dan lelah. Ia membayangkan akan makan sore
menggunakan ikan. Dengan sangat cepat, sang istri menghidangkan makanan untuk ayah.

Akan tetapi, ayah tidak mendapati sisa ikan yang tadi pagi. Ia pun berubah raut mukanya menjadi
masam. “Ia bertanya, “Istriku, mana ikan yang tadi pagi masih sisa?”. Sang istri menjawab
“Maafkan aku suamiku, saat makan siang tadi, anak kita si bungsu menangis dan merengek minta
makan ikan”.

Bukannya memahami watak anaknya, suami justru marah besar. Sejak itu, sang istri dipaksa untuk
mencari ikan di lautan. Tanpa belas kasihan sang suami berkata, “Engkau jangan pernah pulang ke
rumah sebelum memperoleh ikan yang banyak sebagai ganti dari ikan yang sudah dimakan tadi”.

Akhirnya, sang istri pun pergi dengan sangat sedih dan merasa sakit hati dengan sang suami. Ia
sangat berat meninggalkan ketiga anaknya, terlebih si bungsu yang masih menyusu. Lama ibunya
tak kunjung pulang, ketiga anaknya sangat rindu kepadanya.

44
Akhirnya mereka mencari ibunya ke laut. Namun mustahil bisa menemukan ibunya karena tidak
ada satu orang pun di sana. Namun, tiba-tiba ibunya datang dan menyusui anak bungsunya. Ia pun
memerintahkan kepada ketiga anaknya untuk pulang dan ia berjanji akan segera kembali.

Namun, karena sang ibu tak kunjung kembali, mereka mencari ibunya ke laut. Akhirnya bertemu
dengan sosok perempuans setengah sisik yang kemudian menyusui si bungsu. Namun, tiba-tiba
nampak ada perubahan pada ibu mereka. Ada sisi di setengah tubuhnya.

Mereka pun berkata, “Kau bukan ibuku”. Sekalipun ia sudah menjelaskan, tetap saja mereka tidak
mengakui sebagai ibu. Dan ketika mereka memanggil manggil nama ibunya, yang muncul adalah
perempuan sama yang setengah badannya bersisik. Akhirnya merekapun meninggalkan laut
tersebut karena merasa tak kunjung menemukan ibunya.

Why are Cicadas Silent in the Winter?
In the old days, ants and cicadas were friends. They were very different. The ants
were hardworking, but the cicadas were lazy.
In the summer, the ants families were very busy. They knew that in the winter they
would have to stay in their anthill. They wanted to have enough food for the whole winter.
While the ants worked hard, the cicadas didn’t do anything. They sang and danced all day.
When they were hungry, they could fly to the farm and get something to eat.
One day, the cicadas were singing and dancing. They saw a long line of ants bring
food to their anthill. The cicadas said, “Stop my silly friends, It’s very nice day. Come and
dance with us”. The ants said, “Don’t you know about the winter? If you don’t work now,
you’ll have trouble later”.
But the cicadas said, “we have strong wings. We can fly anywhere we want. Stupid
ants”. And they continued to sing and dance.
In the winter, it rained or snowed all the time and it was very cold. In the anthill,
there was singing and dancing. But the cicadas had nothing to eat. They asked the ants for
some food. The ants said, “We thought you could fly anywhere. Now who is stupid and
silly?”.
The cicadas cried and said that their wings were wet from the rain.
The next day, when the ants opened their door, all the cicadas were dead! That’s why we
can hear cicadas in the summer, but in the winter they are silent.
Questions:
1. How was the cicadas?
