1. Explain in your own words what discourse study is. To answer the question: first examine the three texts (under the activity 1a 1b and 1c) in the book “Discourse Analysis” by David Nunan (page 1-2).
Answer:
Discourse study is the interpretation about
spoken, written texts, and signed languages. In discourse also involving about verbal and non verbal materials. Discourse study is closed with the text form and it is more than the meaning from the written or spoken texts but involving communicative event.  Discourse study is related with the humanities and social sciences.  So, discourse study is analyze all about the spoken or written from the people involving text form, grammar, coherent in each sentence, the meaning from individual and how the situational when a texts is analyzed.
2. Choose one short article in English from a newspaper and find the cohesion and deixis used within the article. Make the interpretation of the meaning of each kind of cohesion and deixis throughout the context of the text.

Powerful earthquake-like events on the sun's surface, called sunquakes, can be set off by huge belches of charged particles from the solar atmosphere, scientists say.

Researchers had previously linked sunquakes to solar flares, eruptions on the sun that can send powerful bursts of x-rays, ultraviolet light, and matter into space.  On February 15, 2011, researchers spied two sunquakes and a solar flare that occurred around the same time—but the flare wasn't hot enough to have spawned the seismic waves.
"The heat and radiation from solar flares is thought to drive a pressure wave to the surface, like thunder from a lightning bolt. But for this February 15th event, it wasn't like that," said Sergei Zharkov, a space scientist at University College London, who presented the new findings about sunquakes last month at the 2012 National Astronomy Meeting in Manchester, U.K.Instead it appears the February sunquakes were linked to a coronal mass ejection, or CME, a huge cloud of charged solar particles that erupted from the sun's upper atmosphere.
"This is the first time we've seen a sunquake associated with a coronal mass ejection," Zharkov said. "It's the first clear counterexample."
Sunquakes Pack Powerful Punches. Solar researchers in 1972 predicted the existence of sunquakes, which look like the circular ripples on a pond's surface after someone tosses in a stone.
It wasn't until 1998, however, that a team of scientists announced the first observed sunquake, found in 1996 data from NASA's Solar and Heliospheric Observatory. The 11.3-magnitude sunquake occurred following a solar flare, and it was 40,000 times more powerful than the 1906 San Francisco earthquake.Zharkov and his team measured February 2011's set of sunquakes as each being a thousand times more energetic than last year's Tohoku earthquake in east Japan.

THIS IS THE ANALYSIS OF COHESION AND DEIXIS

THE ANALYSIS   ::::

1.    Previously  :  Temporal deixis  of time means that researcher from National Geographic have been  study about sun earthquake before.
-  ­And    :  Cohesion of elliptical conjunction.
2.    February 15, 2012  :  Temporal deixis of time means that the reseachers being spied two sun earthquakes and solar flares.
-  And   :  Cohesion of elliptical conjunction.
3.    On February 15 event  :  Temporal deixis of time means that the heat and radiation wasn’t like a thunder bolt.
-  It   :  Person deixis ( singular ) means that the heat an radiation from solar flares.
-  But   Cohesian of elliptical conjunction.
-  University college London   :  Spacial deixis  means that University in London.
-  A space scientist   :  Social deixis of Absolut deixis and it’s referring Sergei Zharkov.
-  Last month   :  Temporal deixis of time that means the time before the news published.
-  Manchaster, U. K   Spacial deixis   .
4.                       –  it   :  Cohesion of anaphoric reference referring the heat and radiation from solar flares.
-  Or   :  Cohesion of elliptical conjunction.
5.    it   :  Lexical cohesion of reiteration, repetition of first time that means a huge cloud of charged solar particles that erupted from the sun's upper atmosphere and it can be synonym.
-  First time   Temporal deixis that means the time after February 15th sun quakes and a huge cloud of charged solar particles that erupted from the sun's upper atmosphere.
6.    ----------------------------
7.    it   :  Cohesion of anaphoric reference referring to predicting the existence of sun quakes.
- Scientist   :  Cohesion of ellipsis (N) it’s  Zharkov  a space scientist at University College London and team.
- San Francisco   Spacial deixis.
8.    His   :  Person deixis that means team of scientist from University College London.
-  Last year   Temporal deixis of time that means the time after February 2011 it is on December 2011’s Tokohu earth quake.
-  Tokohu   :  Spacial deixis it means the city on east japan.
