A report usually talks about something concrete or which can be observed such as animals, plants, planets, and natural disasters.
Communicative purpose
The social purpose of report text is presenting information about something. They generally describe an entire class of things, whether natural or made: mammals, the planets, rocks, plants, computers, countries of origin, transportation, and so on.
Generic structure :
• General classification (general information)
• Description (how they look, where they live, what they eat, how they move, reproduce)
Language features :
• use of general nouns, eg hunting dogs, rather than particular nouns, eg our dog;
• use of relating verbs to describe features, eg Molecules are tiny particles;
• some use of action verbs when describing behavior, eg Emus cannot fly;
• use of timeless present tense to indicate usualness, eg Tropical cyclones always begin over the sea;
• use of technical terms, eg Isobars are lines drawn on a weather map;
• use of paragraphs with topic sentences to organize bundles of information; repeated naming of the topic as the beginning focus of the clause.
Example :
Mangrove
A mangrove is a tropical marine tree. Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtering tap roots which enable them to thrive in brackish water. Brackish water is salty but not as salty as sea water. Mangrove trees are commonly planted and found in coastal areas. Mangroves can serve as walls of protection for natural disaster in coastal area like tsunami. According to BBC News, healthy mangrove forests had helped save lives in the Asia disaster tsunami and people tended to respect these natural barriers even more, especially after the tsunami.
There are several species of mangrove tree found all over the world. Some prefer more salinity, while others like to be very-close to a large fresh water source such as river. Some prefer areas that are sheltered from waves. Some species have their roots covered with sea water every day during high tide. Other species grow on dry land but are still part of the ecosystem. The Times of India reported that rare species of mangrove had been found and was also known as the looking-glass tree, probably because the leaves are silver-coated.
Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leave above the surface of the water. Yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves.
Any part of root that appears above the water flows oxygen to the plant under water surface. as the soil begin to build up, these roots procedure additional roots that become embedded in the soil.

Ant-eaters are perhaps the most curious looking animals. Their long head and snout look like tubes, and they have no teeth at all. Their front legs are very strong and armed with heavy curved claws with which they break open the nets of ants and termites and then, when the insects rush out, use their long, sticky tongues to lick them up at great speed.
True ant-eaters are found in the swamps and forests of central and South America. Scaly ant-eaters, or pangolins, are found in Africa and tropical Asia.
Various other insect-eating animals are sometimes called ant-eaters, although they really belong to other groups of animals.

HEART
The heart is the most important part of the body. It is the center of life. However, the heart is only as big as a closed hand. The heart is a muscle and it beats about seventy times per minute throughout a person’s life.
The heart pumps blood from your heart to all parts of your body. The heart is made up of four chambers or small “rooms”. The top chambers are called the right and left auricles and the bottom chambers are the right and left ventricles.
When blood enters the heart, it is in dark reddish color because it contains carbon
dioxide. The blood enters the right auricle and then the right ventricle. When the heart
contracts, it forces the blood to the lungs where the blood receives oxygen. It then goes to the left auricle. The heart contracts again, and the blood goes to the left ventricle and isthen forced out into the body. The blood gathers carbon dioxide and returns to the heart, and the process begins again.

Snakes
Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards (the scaled group, Squamata) but form a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).
Snakes have no legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.
Snakes often sun bake on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-blooded and they need the sun’s warmth to heat their body up. Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees; some live in water, but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.
A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, and mice and other snakes. The Anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even wild boars.
Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs. Boa Constrictors can give you a bear hug which is so powerful. It can crush every single bone in your body. Some snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like the Cobra. The Flying Snakes glides away from danger. Their ribs spread apart and the skin stretches out.

Gelatin is a protein substance that comes from the skins and bones of animals. Most people know it as the substance used to make a jellylike salad or dessert. Not only is it useful in making these foods, but it is also beneficial to the consumer because of its high protein content. Gelatin is also commonly used in the photographic industry and in making medicinal capsules.
The process for producing gelatine is a long and complex one. In the processing of gelatine made from bones, which varies slightly from that of gelatine make from skin, the grease first must be eliminated. Then, the bones are soaked in a solution of hydrochloric acid in order to rid them of minerals and are washed several ties in water. Next, the bones are placed in distilled water, heated to over 90oF for a few hours, placed in fresh distilled water, and then heated again at a little over 100oF. A fluid forms from this heating, and it is concentrated, chilled, and sliced. Finally, it is dried and ground. In its final form, gelatine is white, tasteless, and odourless.

The following is the text for question number 25 to 29
Dengue fever is an acute febrile disease, found in the tropics and Africa, with a geographical spread similar to malaria. Dengue is transmitted to humans by the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which feeds during the day.
This infectious disease is manifested by a sudden onset of fever, with severe headache, muscle and joint pains and rashes. The dengue rash is characteristically bright red petechia and usually appears first on the lower limbs and the chest; in some patients, it spreads to cover most of the body. There may also be gastritis with some combination of associated abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea.
The classic dengue fever lasts about six to seven days, with a smaller peak of fever at the trailing end of the disease. Clinically, the platelet count will drop until the patient's temperature is normal. The diagnosis of dengue is usually made clinically. The classic picture is high fever with no localizing source of infection, a petechial rash with thrombocytopenia and relative leukopenia.

A mangrove is a tropical maritime tree or shrub of the genous Rhisophora. Mangroves have special aerial roots and salt-filtrring tap roots that enable them to thrive in brackish water ( brackish water is salty, but not as salty as sea water )
There are several species of mangrove trees found all over the world. Some prefer more salinity, while others like to be very close to a large fresh water source ( such as a river ). Some prefer areas that are saltered from waves. And some species have their roots covered with sea. Others are more sensitive to salinity, and grow closer to the shore. Other species grow on dry land, but are still part of the ecosytem.
Mangroves need to keep their trunk and leaves above the water line. Yet they also need to be firmly attached to the ground so they are not moved by waves. There are three types of mangrove roots that help in this process.
1. Support roots which directly pierce the soil.
2. Level-growing roots which the upward twists emerge on the water surface.
3. Level-growing roots which the downwards twists (sub-roots) appear on the water surface. Any part of a root that appears above the water line channels oxygen to the plane below the water line. Over time as soil begins to build up, these roots produce additional roots that become embadded in the soil.
