Problem and Solution 
Today, we started to study the last lesson which is Problem and Solution. This lesson was pretty difficult because it was alike Cause and Effect. Yet, it has the propose solution to let the readers know while cause and effect don't.
First of all, the teacher checked our names. Then, she let us know about the scores of cooking presentation. I got 8.5 point which made me pleasure. Because I didn't hope I would get the high score like that.
Go back to the lesson, she let us know the definition of problem and solution. And also, she told about the difference between cause and effect and problem and solution.
I would like to let you know what the problem and solution is. It is a pattern of organization where information in a passage is expressed as a dilemma or concerning issue (a problem) and something that was, can be, or should be done to remedy this issue (solution or attempted solution). The problem and solution text may seem like it would be easy to recognize, but it can be moderately difficult to identify because it is frequently confused with the cause and effect pattern of organization, as they both have relational structure; however, if you read the passage and look specially for both a problem and a solution to the problem, you should find it pretty easy to distinguish from cause and effect.
As cause and effect passage do not propose solutions to any negative occurrences within the passage but rather just explain why or how they happen.
She explain the word "dilemma" to all of us. Do you know what does it mean? I will let you know. Well, it means a situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two different things you could do. For instance, the president is clearly in a dilemma about how to tackle the crisis etc.
Next, we started to read the example which was about the teen pregnancies. She read and gave us repeat after her. Then, she gave us look the diagram in the text and we had to see the discourse markers too.
I will let you know the problem and solution of this text. 
Problem is Teen Pregnancies
The solution are Birth Control and Abstinence (avoid having sex)
Later, she let us know about the problem markers and solution markers. Then, we started to do the Skill practice by circling the problem markers and highlight the solution markers. After that, write either problem or solution in the margin next to the relevant information.
From these exercises, they made me know what are problem and solution by noticing the context clue and discourse markers. When I finished doing them, I needed to write them in the diagram in order to check my comprehension.
After that, she assigned us to do the rest of exercise. She will answer the questions on next Tuesday. Definitely, it is the last day which I am going to study. So, I will try harder to study and do it with my best.
When we finished studying, we had to take a test, Personally, it was quite difficult. Because of my answers, I wasn't sure they will be correct or not. But I tried to do it with my best. I hope everything I did will be successful to get the best score.
What did you learn today?
I started to study the new lesson which was Problem and Solution
What did you find easy?In my opinion, Finding the discourse markers is easy for me. Because I know these conjunction as well and I will learn as much as I can in order to understand and know greatly.
What did you find difficult?Personally, analyzing what are problem and solution is difficult. When I finish analyzing, I have to include them as diagram because the teacher usually gives us to write what she taught in diagram in order to check comprehension.
What did you solve the problem?I tried to pay attention during the class, read more and practice to write the diagram.
What are your attitudes towards the lesson?Personally, this lesson is similar to cause and effect. But it has explanation in solution. I feel this lesson is neutral. Yet, I should analyze the text what is problem and what is solution. Also, I have to think what solution is. Hence, I should study hard in order to understand this lesson as well.
