Text A does not contain any idea relation but many locution relations. They are showed through 16 of 24 clause complexes. The number of elaboration,
extension, and enhancement is closely equal. The elaboration relation makes 8 links, extension relation makes 10 links and enhancement relation makes 9 links. Single
logical semantic relations of either expansion or projection also make 11 links of the entire clause complexes.
Text B contains the whole element of logical semantic relation. It has idea relation which is indicated from 1 clause complex. The number of locution relation is
equal to elaboration or extension relation. They make each 9 links. Enhancement relation makes 6 links. Single clausal relation occurs in 8 clause complexes.

Combined with systems of interdependence, the logical semantic relations reflect a competitive number among the texts. Text A, with a bigger number of
clause complexes, shows a hypotactic locution as the highest number seen in 13 clause complexes whereas paratactic locution gets a half through 5 clauses. The
second place goes to hypotactic enhancement through clause complexes while paratactic enhancement only goes through 1 clause complex. Paratactic elaboration is
less contributive showed in only 1 clause complex. Hypotactic elaboration in 6 clause complexes presents an equal number as paratactic extension in 5 clause
complexes. On the other hand, hypotactic extension shows a less number in 4 clause complexes. Overall, there is no any idea relation appeared on text A.
39 Hypotactic elaboration in text B leads the distribution through 7 clause
complexes. There is no paratactic elaboration identified. The number of hypotactic extension in 6 clause complexes is two times of paratactic extension in 3 clause
complexes. It also happens for hypotactic locution. It occurs in 3 clause complexes. Otherwise paratactic locution occurs in 6 clause complexes. Hypotactic enhancement
is seen in 4 clause complexes while paratactic enhancement is seen only in 1 clause complex. Hypotactic idea only appears in 1 clause complex while paratactic idea
does not at all.
