A. Concept of Report Text
1. Definition and Concept of Report Text
Report text, in the context of communication, is a type of
writing that functions to provide information, analysis, or
evaluation about a topic or event. The main purpose of report
text is to provide a clear and accurate picture of a subject, as
well as to help readers understand the current situation or
event. Report text can be defined as writing that contains

information obtained through observation, research or
analysis, and is presented in a systematic and detailed form.
Report text can be a report, article, or paper that contains data,
analysis, and interpretation about a subject. Report text must
be structured clearly, such as an introduction, body and
conclusion. Each part of the report text must be logically related

to each other to make it easier for readers to receive the flow of
information. From the data that has been collected and
analyzed, it makes it easier for readers to understand
information from the data that is relevant to the context of the
event. Report text is text that comes from data, so writers
should avoid giving personal opinions. The language used in
writing report text must be formal.
