Abstract

As a foreign language, English is hardly ever used in daily practice at schools. It is only spoken fluently and actively in certain international schools in Indonesia, such as British International School and Jakarta Multicultural School, in which the medium of instruction is English. Indonesian learners are not familiar in English, so that they use it passively. As a consequence, more learners make mistakes in speaking, especially when they are constructing questions in conversations. Accordingly, this study aims at analyzing the common mistakes produced by students in constructing questions. This study employs descriptive qualitative methodology in which the writer describes the results of the analysis that show learners do make mistakes in constructing questions in declarative, yes/no interrogative, alternative interrogatives, interrogatives, and double interrogative forms. It happens because they are not aware of the proper forms of questions, and also they do not practice English frequently. Therefore, mistakes appear due to these factors.

The application of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), particularly educational software, to facilitate the learning and teaching process has become a more and more popular trend among teachers. Therefore, this study attempts to highlight teaching passive voice in the EFL Classroom through the implementation of ICT in teaching and learning process.

Abstract

Going through the journey together, what makes the travel writing of Samuel Johnson differs with the biography of himself written by his travel-mate, James Boswell? One engrossing narrative; The Scarlet Letter has different voice of writing with another brilliant short story The Fall of the House of Usher despite the fact that they were written by two American writers around the same period (Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe). Each writing has different style from one person to another in a way that various perception is carved into distinct types of understandable language. In an early case, typical sense of language production and personal writing style do become crucial factors in constructing enriched and structured forms of literary works on any genre.Writing as a productive skill and an ideological exploration play a critical role for authors to express their language ability. Field of study to analyze language creation in literary works is called stylistics. Some texts in literary works can somehow affect reader’s thought or emotional feeling. This connection is related to the distance between the speaker and the reader, focusing on how a speaker transfers his language and in what way the reader grasps the textual meaning. Analyzing this special connection over time and space elements in stylistics is called deixis or deictic shift. Along with the idea, this essay will explore the deictic shift in Slaughterhouse Five or The Children’s Crusade.
