Abstract

The purpose of this research is to analyze the reading literacy skills of junior high school students based on the Minimum Competency Assessment (MCA). The participants in this study involved 50 students. The instrument used in the research referred to the types of MCA questions. The method used in this research is quantitative descriptive, which only describes students' literacy skills in information text material without any specific treatment. The research subjects were selected based on cluster random sampling techniques. The data obtained through the research were analyzed with descriptive statistics by determining the average test scores of students to determine the level of students' literacy skills in information text material based on assessment criteria. The research results showed that the reading literacy skills of junior high school students are still in the low category, which is caused by a lack of experience in solving MCA question types, proficiency in information text, educational level, availability of learning resources, teaching methods, and motivation to learn. The low performance of students in reading skills needs to be a special concern, especially by educational institutions, to adjust the implementation of learning that can improve students' reading skills in information text material.

Abstract

This study employs a Bordieuan framework to conduct a sociological analysis of O. Henry's short story, "Mammon and the Archer." By applying this theoretical lens, the emphasis is on the complex interplay of cultural, social, and economic capitals, contextualizing the socioeconomic context of the Gilded Age. Through this sociological examination, the present study unravels the motivations that drive the characters, exposes the underlying social hierarchies, and elucidates the pervasive influence of wealth on their actions. This analysis provides valuable insights into the era's power dynamics and class distinctions, portraying how the pursuit of material wealth shaped the lives of individuals during this pivotal period in American history. "Mammon and the Archer" by O. Henry, analyzed through Pierre Bourdieu's sociological framework, unravels the intricate relationships between cultural, social, and economic capitals. Consequently, this analysis contributes to a richer understanding of the narrative's multifaceted dimensions and prevailing relevance in a historical context.

Abstract

This research aims to determine the applied translation procedures in the cultural words translation and the naturalness of cultural words translations obtained by the applied procedures found in Oliver Bowden's Assassin's Creed: Revelations novel. Newmark’s theory of translation procedures is used to determine the types of translation procedures, whereas Nida and Taber’s formal and dynamic equivalence theory is used to determine which procedure produced natural cultural words translation. The method used in this research is the qualitative-descriptive method. The research data were collected from the dialogues and narrations found in the selected novel and its translation. Based on the analysis, the research yielded two results. First, the translation procedures applied in the cultural words translations are cultural equivalent, couplets, synonymy, naturalization, notes, descriptive equivalent, transference, shifts or transpositions, recognized translation, functional equivalent, and modulation. Second, only 9 out of 11 procedures successfully obtained naturalness of cultural words translation. The procedure producing the most natural cultural words translations is the cultural equivalent procedure as the cultural words translations it produced are oriented toward dynamic equivalence. On the other hand, the procedure with the least natural cultural words translation is the transference procedure due to the it producing exclusively formal equivalence-oriented translations.
