Description

Merupakan penjelasan gambaran dari fenomena/benda yang didiskusikan dari bagian ke bagian, kebiasaan atau tingkah laku untuk benda hidup, ataupun kegunaannya untuk benda secara detail. Contoh
The success is largely due to its command hunting behaviour. A group, perhaps two dozen birds, will gather in a curved arc some distance offshore. The birds then begin to move forward towards the shore, beating the water furiously with their wings, driving the fish before them.
 
When the water is shallow enough for the birds to reach the fish, the formation breaks up as each bird dips its bill into the water to scoop up its meal. As the bird lifts its head, the water drains from its bill leaving the fish which are then swallowed. Pelicans are among the oldest group of birds, Fossils of this genus have been found dating back 40 million years.
