The result of this research shows that there was a significant effect ofthe treatment on the students’ reading comprehension in the experimental group. The t-test result was 4.259;and its df was 56, by comparing number of significance. If probability is >0.05, the null hypothesis (H0) is rejected. If probability is <0.05, the alternative hypothesis (Ha) is accepted. Because of the significance was 0.000 < 0.05, Ha was accepted; and consequently H0 was rejected. There was also a significant effect of the treatment on the students’ motivation inthe experimental group. The t-test result was 8.431;and its df was 56, by comparing number of significance.
