Abstract

This research analyzes the form of the speech act of advice acquired by senior students at English Department of Andalas University in 2019. The identified structures of advice were then described about politeness strategy being used and the social factors (Power, Social Distance, and Rate of Imposition) that underlie the selection of the form and strategies. Data were gathered using online DCT that made use of Google Form platform. As many as 32 senior students of the department in 2019 participated in this research and filled in their responses completely to the 12 situations presented in the online DCT. The situations were designed as similar as possible to Indonesian students' daily life situations in West Sumatera and written in Indonesian. However, the responses were required in English. The results of the analyses revealed that most participants tended to use hedging type of advice (57%) with a positive politeness strategy (76%). In addition, social variables such as social distance appeared to play a significant role in the participants' selection of the politeness form and strategy. When the social distance was close between an advisor and an advisee, the advisor tended to switch to the direct mode form and direct politeness strategy. However, when an advisor assumed a far social distance against the listener, s/he tended to advise the listener in a more indirect form and strategy regardless of the listener's power status.

Abstract

Reading is the process of knowing, understanding, and getting information about the contents of the text. Teaching Reading is the process of teaching students to understand and comprehend texts. There are some problems in teaching reading. Therefore, the teacher needs to implement several strategies. One strategy is the Jumble Summary strategy. This is a strategy used by the teacher to present key words and phrases that are randomly ordered from the lesson or topic to students. Students place terms and phrases in paragraphs or logical sequences to show understanding. This research is an experiment. The population of this research is the eighth-grade students of SMPN 2 Suliki District. There are 6 classes in the school. A cluster sampling technique is used to determine the sample. Experimental classes are taught with the Jumble Summary Strategy, and the control class is taught by the strategies currently used by the teacher. This research tool is a multiple-choice reading test. This test is validated because the material is taught to students before taking the test. To check the reliability of the test, researchers used a half-separate test formula. After that, the data were analyzed using the t-test formula suggested by Gay, Mills, and Airasian [1]. From the data analysis, the t-count is 3.214, while the t-table is 2.021, which means that the t-count is greater than the t-table. In other words, the research hypothesis is accepted. So it can be concluded teaching reading by using the Jumble Summary Strategy has had a significant influence on learning to read. Therefore, it is recommended that English teachers apply the Jumble Summary Strategy in reading learning.
