Abstract

Based on the writer’s preliminary study, it was found that, the students could not apply their reading to other reading texts, they only knew about readings in their text book at the school. This problem was caused by some factors. For example, some students could not understand about content of reading text and identify the detailed information of the text. So, the writer was interested in carrying out the research about this problem. The research was administered at SMAN 2 Tebing Tinggi. The subject of the research is the second year students at SMAN 2 Tebing Tinggi, and the object of this research is the effect of Various Reading Texts Presentation. The design of this research is Pre- experimental design. The population of this research was all of the second year students. The total number of population was 202 students. Because the number of population was large, the researcher used cluster sampling by taking two classes only as sample; IPA XI. 1 consisted of 41 students as experimental group, and IPA XI. 2 consisted of 41 students as control group, so the numbers of sample from two classes were 82 students. To analyze the data, the researcher adopted paired sample t-test formula by using SPSS.
