1. Social Function
2. Text structure
3. Language features (Simple Past tense , Noun phrase, time connectives dan
conjunctions, adverbs and adverbial phrases, action verbs, saying and thinking
verbs)
In days of yore, when Shah Mukhayat Sultan of Aceh was resting in the palace,
suddenly he saw a green light from the East. The Sultan immediately called his vizier
and asked what the light was. The vizier was also shocked and could not answer the
Sultan's question. Only the next morning a Sultan's confidant was sent to investigate the
light. The results of the investigation were said that the light came from the body of the
Green Princess in the Old Deli. It was said that the princess was the daughter of the Deli
Kingdom - Sultan Sulaiman. When he died, he left three children. The eldest was
named Mambang Jazid, the second was Putri Hijau (The Green Princess), and the last
one was Mambang Khayali. The sons and daughter of Sultan Sulaiman were considered
by his people as the incarnation of the gods. They were adored as magical people. The
Green Princess herself was a beautiful woman. She was called the Green Princess
because her body always emitted a green light, especially if she was playing in the park
during the full moon.
Having heard the story, Sultan Mukhayat Syah then fell in love, even though the
Sultan had never seen the princess' face before. Having feeling infatuated to the
Princess, he, accompanied by his bodyguards, left for Deli to propose the daughter of
the Old Deli Kingdom.
Upon arrival in Labuhan, the Sultan immediately sent a courier. Jazid had
passionate spirits, and told her about the Sultan’s wish to marry the graceful Putri Hijau.
However, Putri Hijau rejected Sultan Mukhayat Syah's proposal. Of course the refusal
made Sultan very angry and felt humiliated. Feeling disappointed, He challenged a war.
The War ensued and many of his soldiers were killed in the battle.
Finally, the Prime Minister of Aceh discovered a trick, which was thought to be
able to defeat the Deli Tua soldiers. The ruse took the form of shooting ringgit money at
the enemy camps, in the form of clumps of thorny bamboo that were tightly
surrounding the town of Deli Tua. Seeing the ringgit money, the people of Deli Tua,
without thinking anymore, immediately cut and cut down the thorny bamboo clumps.
As a result, the defense of the city of Deli Tua was destroyed. It was difficult for them
to withstand the attack of Sultan Mukhayat Syah's army.

EVALUASI
Talaga Warna
Long ago there was a kingdom in West Java. The kingdom was ruled by a king
called [Link] was a kind and wise king, and there was no hunger in his kingdom.
But Prabu and his queen didn’t have any children. It made them very, very sad.
Then one day Prabu went into the jungle. There he prayed to his god for a child.
A few months later, the queen was expecting a baby, and all the people in the kingdom
were happy. Prabu and the queen loved their little daughter and gave her everything. Th
is made the princess a very spoiled girl. If she didn’t get what she wanted, she became
very angry. But even though the princess behaved badly, her parents loved her, and so
did the people in the kingdom.
Day by day, the princess grew more beautiful. When she was 17, her parents
invited all the people in the kingdom to a party. Prabu took their gift s of gold and
bright jewels and had a beautiful necklace made for his daughter.
On the day of the birthday, people gathered in the palace field. When Prabu and
the queen appeared, people welcomed them happily. The cheers were even louder when
the beautiful princess appeared. Prabu took the necklace. “My beloved daughter,” he
said, “today I give this necklace to you. It is a gift from the people of this country
because they love you so much.”The princess looked at the necklace. “I don’t want it!
It’s ugly!” she shouted, and she threw the necklace on the ground, where it broke into
pieces. Everyone was shocked. Nobody [Link] never thought that their beloved
princess would do that terrible thing.
In their silence people heard the queen crying. Everyone was sad and began
crying, too. A pool of water formed on the ground. Soon the pool became a big lake.
The lake sank all of the kingdom.
Today, people called the lake Talaga Warna. It means ‘Lake of Colours’. It is
located in Puncak, West Java. On a bright day, the lake is full of amazing colours,
which in fact come from the reflection of the trees and flowers around it. But some
people believe that the colours are from the princess’s necklace, which still lies in
pieces at the bottom of the lake.
It was the rainy season in Banten. The villagers who were farmers were happy
as the rain would water their rice fields and soon they would harvest their rice. Pak
Bong was one of the farmers. He was also very happy and planned what he would buy
for himself, his wife and his beautiful, beloved daughter, Nyi Banjarsari.
One night, Pak Bong had a terrible dream. An old man came to him and said the
rain would never stop. There would be a great flood. Pak Bong had the same dream in
the following nights. He decided to tell all the villagers about his dream and asked them
to evacuate to a hill not far from their village. Everybody laughed at Pak Bong. “You
are joking Pak Bong. How can we leave our rice fields? We are going to have a great
harvest, remember?”
Pak Bong did not give up. He kept on asking the villagers to evacuate to the hill.
Finally some villagers believed him. Together with his wife and his daughter Nyi
Banjarsari, Pak Bong and his friends went to the hill.
In the meantime, heavy rain fell day and night. It continued until water entered
the houses. Soon, the village was flooded! Pak Bong and his friends could not do
anything. They were sad because their village was under water. Then they prayed and
asked how their village could be saved. The answer came in Pak Bong’s dream. In his
dream, the same old man told him how to save their village. “If you want the water to
dry up, you have to sacrifice your daughter. She has to jump into the water!” said the
old man.
Pak Bong was very sad. He then told his family about his dream. “Father, if this
is the only way to save our village, I will jump into the water,” said Nyi Banjarsari. Her
parents could not prevent their daughter from jumping into the water.
After she had drowned, the water dried up. Pak Bong and his friends then
returned to their village. Although the villagers had lost their harvest, they still had their
lives and could re-build their houses. To show their thankfulness and gratefulness to
Nyi Banjarsari, the villagers named their village ‘Banjarsari’.
