Although  there  are  slight  similarities  with  descriptive
                           texts,  descriptive  reports  focus  more  on  describing  the
                           general  characteristics  of  an  object,  place  or  event.  The
                           objects reported can be animals, plants, tourist attractions, or

                           cultural events. Examples: blue while, Borobudur temple.
                        d. Analytical Report
                             Analytical reports not only convey information, but also
                           analyze data and present conclusions from the results of the
                           analysis. For example: research on Korean makeup trends in
                           Indonesia.
                        e.  Progress Report
                             Progress reports report the development or progress of an

                           activity or project. This report is usually made periodically
                           to monitor the achievement of targets and identify potential
                           problems  that  need  to  be  addressed.  Progress  reports  are
                           often  needed  in  the  world  of  work,  research,  or
                           infrastructure development. For example: Progress related
                           to the development of IKN (the capital of the Nusantara).

               C.  Writing steps and the examples of the report text.
                   1.  Writing steps report text
                              In  the  previous  chapter  we  discussed  the  concept  and
                      structure of text reports. At first glance, report text is similar to

                      descriptive text that explains or describes an object. However,
                      there  is  a  difference  between  report text  and  descriptive  text,
                      namely in terms of the objects described in the text. If descriptive
                      text explains an object specifically, on the other hand, report text
                      explains an object in general. For example, an author wants to
                      discuss tigers. If the  text is descriptive, it can discuss  specific
                      tigers  such  as  Sumatran  tigers,  Javanese  tigers,  and  others.
                      Meanwhile, in the report text the idea discussed could be Tigers
                      in general. Thus, the procedure for writing report text will not
                      be much different from other texts, especially descriptive texts.
                              There are several steps in writing report text, namely as
                      follows:
