                       PENDAHULUAN

1.1. Latar Belakang Masalah

 Tape merupakan makanan fermentasi tradisional yang sudah tidak asing lagi. Tape dibuat dari beras, beras ketan, atau dari singkong (ketela pohon). Berbeda dengan makanan-makanan fermentasi lain yang hanya melibatkan satu mikroorganisme yang berperan utama, seperti tempe atau minuman alkohol, pembuatan tape melibatkan banyak mikroorganisme. Proses pembuatan tape melibatkan proses fermentasi yang dilakukan oleh mikroorganisme Saccharomyces cerivisiae . Mikroorganisme ini memiliki kemampuan dalam mengubah karbohidrat (fruktosa dan glukosa) menjadi alkohol dan karbon dioksida . Selain Saccharomyces cerivisiae, dalam proses pembuatan tape ini terlibat pula mikrorganisme lainnya, yaitu Mucor chlamidosporus dan Endomycopsis fibuligera. Kedua mikroorganisme ini turut membantu dalam mengubah pati menjadi gula sederhana(glukosa).

1.2. Permasalahan

 Sehubungan dengan latar belakang masalah di atas, permasalahan yang dibahas dalam karya tulis ilmiah ini adalah sebagai berikut:
1. Apakah proses fermentasi makanan itu?
 2. Bagaimana proses fermentasi pada tape?
3. Apa kegunaan ragi dalam proses pembuatan tape singkong?
4. Ada berapa macam langkah-langkah dalam proses pembuatan tape singkong?

DID PIRATES REALLY BURY THEIR TREASURE ?

                 There are many different stories about pirates. Pirates wear eye patches, have pet parrots, and wooden legs.One of the most popular stories is that pirates buried their treasure. But where does this idea come from, and did it really happen?

          Only one real pirate is known to have buried his treasure. His name was William Kidd, also known as Captain Kidd. Captain Kidd was a Scottish sailor who sailed in the Indian ocean and around the eats coast of North America in 1600s.

          Realizing that one day he might be caught, Captain Kidd traveled to Long Island and buried 100 pounds of gold and silver there. He tought that he could use the treasure to get out of trouble, trading gold and silver for his freedom.

          In 1966, he was caught and put in jail in Boston, Massachusetts. The governor of Massachutetts tricked Kidd into telling him some information and was able to find the treasure. So, in the end his plan didn’t work.

          Some people, however, think it isn’t strange that we don’t know about more pirates who buried their treasure. After all, it wouldn’t be very useful to hide gold and silver, and then tell everyone about it!

          Throughout history it has been very common for people to bury valuable or important things to keep them safe. Today people living in the countryside in England still find posts of buried Roman coins that were hidden by their owners almost two thousand years ago.

Tall Ship

       

       A tall ship is a type of traditional sailing ship which usually has very tall masts and large sails. Tall ships often have long decks, and some tall ships even have a crow’s nest. While the crew is busy hoisting the sails, climbing the masts, and scrubbing the decks, the captain is usually busy using the wheel to steer the ship. In the caseit starts to sink, many ships also have a lifeboat for the crew to escape in. If someone falls overboard the rest of the crew can call out, “Man overboard!”, and throw the person a life ring to save them. In the past, most people used a compass and a telescope to navigate tall ships, but today most people use GPS.
