Definition and Process Paragraph

Angklung is the most popular musical instrument in Bandung. Angklung has been well-known in Bandung since 1955. Angklung is a musical instrument made out of two bamboo tubes attached to a bamboo frame. The tubes are carved so that they have a resonant pitch when struck. To play an angklung, we must held the frame is with one hand while the other hand shakes the instrument rapidly from side to side. This causes a rapidly repeating note to sound. An angklung only has one note. Because of that, to play a music, we need more than one angklung. Some angklungs which play together will complete melodies and make very beautiful music. Angklung not only popular in Indonesia, but also in Southeast Asia.

In our house, we can use hot and cold water everyday. The cold water come from ground and pumped to the house. In the house, cold water is distributed to the sink at first floor and to the bath, wash basin and toilet at the second foor. The other cold water is distributed to the cold water tank at the top of house. Thus is the process of cold water supply. For hot water supply, cold water from from cold water tank is distributed to the hot water tank at second floor. In hot water tank, cold water is changed to be hot water. The hot water is distributed to the bath, wash basin at second floor and to the sink at first floor. Because there are hot and cold water at bath, wash basin and sink, we can mix them to get warm water.
