Earthquake often happens around us. It brings great damages. Earthquake is hard to be predicted and that makes lot victims.

Actually there are three kinds of earthquake. These kinds of earthquake are commonly base on the factor and geological area where the earthquakes happen. These three kinds of earthquake are tectonic, volcanic and explosion.

Tectonic earthquake is most common one. This kind of earthquake happens while earth's crust rocks break because of the geological strength created by moving of the earth's plates.

Volcanic earthquakes happen exactly with volcanic activity. Volcanic earthquakes are when the volcano produces acidic lava, which dries quickly when it dries quickly it blocks the top of the volcano. This make no more magma can escape. Pressure starts to build up and eventually the acidic lava can no longer stand the pressure. So the volcano is free to explode, the pressure is released so fast that an earthquake is caused. A volcanic earthquake is usually kept within 10-20 miles of the volcano.

Explosion earthquakes are the result of the collapse earthquakes that are small earthquakes occurring in underground mines and caverns.

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.

The underlined word in the sentence above is gerund; suatu kata kerja yang fungsinya menjadi kata benda (kata kerja yang dibendakan), misalkan: thank (verb) ditambah dengan akhiran –ing menjadi thanking (noun)

Gerunds dan Penggunaannya

A. Gerunds as Subjects

Penggunaan gerund sebagai subject kalimat sudah dibahas pada sentence components tentang subject kalimat. Untuk merefresh memori anda, perhatikan contoh berikut:

1. Having a lot of money is better than having a little. (Punya banyak uang lebih baik dibanding punya sedikit uang).

14

http://swarabhaskara.com/parts-of-speech/sentence-components/subject-kalimat/

2. Writing and speaking are two different aspects in a language. (Menulis dan berbicara adalah 2 aspek yang berbeda dalam sebuah bahasa).

3. Dropping out of school has caused him hard to find a good job. (Putus sekolah telah membuat dia sulit mendapatkan pekerjaan yang layak/bagus).

B. Gerunds as Objects

Jika verb mengikuti verb lainnya atau mengikuti prepositions, maka verb yang mengikuti ini berfungsi sebagai object kalimat.

1. Direct ObjectGerund sebagai objek langsung dalam kalimat, contoh:- I enjoy dancing.- She likes dancing.- Thank you for your coming.- I hate arguing.

2. Setelah verbs

Seperti halnya pada infinitive, gerund juga dapat mengikuti verbs tertentu, seperti pada pola kalimat berikut:

Subject + verb + gerund

Berikut adalah verbs yang langsung diikuti oleh gerund.

admit (mengakui)appreciate (menghargai)avoid (menghindari)can’t helpconsider (mempertimbangkan)complete (menyelesaikan)delay (menunda)deny (menyangkal)

enjoy (menikmati)finish (menyelesaikan)mind (keberatan)miss (merindukan)postpone (menunda)practice (berlatih)quit (berhenti)recall (mengingat)

regret (menyesali)report (melaporkan)resent (menyesali)resist (bersikeras)resume (memulai lagi)risk (mengambil resiko)suggest (menyarankan)

begin (mulai)can’t stand (tidak tahan)continue (melanjutkan)dislike (tidak suka)

dread (takut)hate (benci)like (suka)

love (cinta)prefer (lebih suka)start (mulai)

stop (berhenti) remember (ingat) forget (lupa)

Note:

a) Verbs pada baris pertama selalu diikuti oleh gerund (tidak pernah diikuti oleh infinitives). Can’t help di sini berarti “not able to avoid a situation, or stop something from happening “.

b) Verbs pada baris kedua selain diikuti oleh gerund juga dapat diikuti oleh infinitive dengan makna sama dengan bentuk gerund-nya. (Lihat contohnya pada infinitive).

c) Verbs pada baris ketiga juga dapat diikuti oleh infinitive, tetapi maknanya berbeda dengan bentuk gerund-nya. Lihat contah 8, 9 & 10 dan bandingkan perbedaan maknanya dengan contoh pada infinitive).

Contoh:

1. Has Ryan admitted killing eleven people yet? (Apakah Ryan telah mengakui membunuh 11 orang?).

2. I appreciated being given suggestions by her. (Saya menghargai diberi saran-saran oleh dia).15

http://swarabhaskara.com/parts-of-speech/infinitive/

3. Tony always avoids answering my questions. (Tony selalu menghindar menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan saya).

4. I enjoyed being with you last night. (Saya menikmati bersama dengan kamu tadi malam).

5. Have you finished reading the book yet? (Apakah kamu telah selesai membaca buku itu?)

6. They prefer playing football to studying. (Mereka lebih milih/suka main sepakbola daripada belajar). Note: Verb prefer jika diikuti oleh gerund, pola kalimatnya berbeda dengan jika diikuti oleh invinitive.

7. I can’t help worrying about the upcoming exam. (Saya tidak bisa berhenti mengkhawatirkan ujian yang segera/sudah dekat itu).

8. I want to stop smoking. (Saya mau berhenti merokok). Dalam kalimat ini, subject I berkeinginan untuk tidak merokok-merokok lagi.

9. My brother always remembers locking his car. (Kakak saya selalu ingat mengunci mobilnya). Selama ini, mobilnya belum pernah dalam keadaan tidak terkunci. Note: Gunakan gerund setelah verb remember jika aktivitasnya sudah dilakukan in the past.

10.My brother never forgets locking his car. (Kakak saya tidak pernah lupa mengunci mobilnya). Sama dengan contoh 7, selama ini, mobilnya belum pernah dalam keadaan tidak terkunci.

Note: Gunakan gerund setelah verb forget jika aktivitasnya sudah dilakukan in the past.

C. Setelah prepositions

Sebelum diikuti oleh gerunds, prepositions (kata depan) biasanya mengikuti verbs, adjectives, atau nouns. Perhatikan pola berikut:

Subjectverbadjectivenoun

preposition gerund

a. Verbs + prepositions + gerunds

Phrase pada table berikut adalah verbs + prepositions yang selalu diikuti oleh gerund (tidak pernah diikuti oleh infinitive.)

approve of (menyetujui)be better off (lebih baik)give up (berhenti)put off (memadamkan)

think about (memikirkan)think of (memikirkan)worry about (mencemaskan)succeed in (berhasil)

count on (percaya pada)depend on (tergantung pada)insist on (bersikeras pada)keep on (meneruskan)rely on (tergantung pada)

object to (keberatan) look forward to (mengharapkan) confess to (mengakui)

Note: Walaupun diikuti oleh preposition to, phrase pada baris kedua selalu diikuti oleh gerund. So, jangan dibingungkan dengan infinitive.

Contoh:

1. He gave up smoking because of his doctor’s advice. (Dia berhenti merokok karena saran dokternya).

2. Jenny insisted on buying that cellphone instead of this one. (Jenny bersikeras untuk membeli HP itu daripada HP ini).

3. Have you ever thought of studying abroad? (Pernahkah kamu berfikir untuk belajar di luar negeri?)

4. After a long trial and error, he finally succeeded in fixing his laptop. (Setelah lama mencoba-coba, dia akhirnya berhasil memperbaiki laptopnya).

16

6. I am looking forward to seeing you soon. (Saya (sedang) sangat menantikan untuk bertemu denganmu segera). INCORRECT jika: I am looking forward to see you soon.

7. No one has confessed to stealing my money yet. (Tak seorang pun yang telah mengaku mencuri uang saya). INCORRECT jika: No one has confessed to steal my money yet.

b. Adjectives + prepositions + gerunds

accustomed to (terbiasa dengan)intent on (bermaksud)afraid of (takut pada)

E. Penggunaan (pronoun/noun) sebelum gerunds

Pada pola-pola di atas, sebelum gerund juga dapat disisipi pronoun dalam bentuk possessive adjectives (i.e. my, your, his, her, its, their, our) atau oleh noun dalam bentuk possessive (i.e. noun+’s, misalnya: John’s, Rini’s, Indonesia’s, ect).

3. It is very joyful to play football when drizzling.
