So, I ask all my students to memorize its concept through Indonesian old traditional song namely NAIK NAIK KE PUNCAK GUNUNG. This song comes from Maluku / Ambon province. It is a national music of Indonesia.

Look the following lyrics!

Naik naik ke puncak gunung
Tinggi tinggi sekali
Naik naik ke puncak gunung
Tinggi tinggi sekali

Kiri kanan kulihat saja
Banyak pohon cemara
Kiri kanan kulihat saja
Banyak pohon cemara

Now let’s song my lyrics!

My friends (2x) let’s study spoof text
It tells about a funny event
My friends (2x) let’s study spoof text
It tells the event with humorous twist

We may write it in simple past tense
So, enjoy reading spoof text, my friends
