CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Study
English has an effect towards the changing of curriculum in Indonesia. As
we know that English is very popular among people in every country, and so does
with our country – Indonesia. English popularity affects many points of view,
especially in curriculum for education. Indonesian government has changed
Competence Based Curriculum, as the previous curriculum into School Based
Curriculum. School Based Curriculum is applied since 2006 as an operational
curriculum which is mandated in Government Regulation No.23/2006 about the
System of National Education and Government regulation No. 19/2005 about
Standard of National Education. The impacts in educational field, English become
local content subject in Primary School and compulsory subject in Junior and
Senior High School.
In Sistem Pendidikan Nasional, improving the four skills of English
becomes the primary goal of English education in Indonesia. As stated in the
‘Standar Kompetensi’ and the ‘Kompetensi Dasar’ of reading skill for Junior High
School, the students must be able to understand kinds of text such as narrative,
recount, functional, procedural, etc. In Junior High School level, before the
students mastering the other skill such as writing, listening, and speaking, the
students are emphasized to mastering reading comprehension. The students will
learn various short functional texts which related with their daily life such as
advertisement, memo, announcement, greeting card, invitation, letter, etc. Since
Junior High School period is the appropriate time to examine their reading ability,
so it is important for students to understand functional English texts.
Reading is one of four skills that is learned at school. There are two main
reasons for reading; the first is reading for pleasure and the second is reading for
information.1 Reading is also something crucial and indispensable for the students
because the success of their study depends on the greater part of their ability to
1 Francoise Grellet, Developing Reading Skill, (Cambridge;Cambridge University Press,2010), p. 4.
2
read. If their reading skill is poor they are likely to fail in their study or at least
they will have difficulty in making progress. On the other hand, if they have a
good ability in reading, they will have a better chance to succeed in their study. In
reading, to comprehend the text the readers should be able to manage every part of
the text, because reading is a constant process of guessing, and what one brings to
the text is often more important than what one finds in it. This is why, from the
beginning the students should be taught to use what they know to understand
unknown elements, whether these are ideas or simple words.2 Comprehending
English can be difficult thing for students if they do not like reading activity.
In school curriculum, reading is one of the subjects taught in English
subject. The students are taught to understand kinds of text such as short
functional text, narrative text, recount text, descriptive text, etc. However, most
students are still cannot understand and get difficulties in comprehend reading,
because reading is receptive skill and most of the students have difficulty in
understand the text, understand vocabulary, and purpose of the text.
This phenomenon can be caused from the lack of examples about those
kinds of text by the teacher to students. It was found, when the writer did PPKT
(Praktek Profesi Keguruan Terpadu) at SMP Al-Hasraand observed the teacher in
teaching reading about short functional texts. Properlly, when the teacher taught
English class about short functional text, the teacher had to give or show the
authentic of the texts. They did not just attach the materials even just the text from
the book. The students just learned about the material without knowing the
authentic or the original version of that text. Some students got difficulties to
differentiate and analyze the differences about the kinds of short functional text
because the teacher does not create the materials well.
The impact can be seen when the students should develop their reading
comprehension skill, but they are still lack of comprehending the purpose of the
text. Most of the students are only like reading when they were in the classroom,
but when they do not in the classroom they still have a low interest in reading.
Because in fact, it makes their reading comprehension ability do not improve well.
2Ibid p. 7.
3
Moreover, in process of transferring information to the students, the lack of the
examples can be a big impact to the students. That is why their reading
comprehension skill is still not in a good progress; because the students just learn
with limited sources of texts without knowing the real example of the text. This
phenomenon occurs as the effect of the method of the teaching that the teacher
implemented, because teaching process really affects the result of the study, so
does the learning process.
Actually, that problem can be solved if the teacher could be more creative
in teaching, so the students are attracted to study. In KTSP curriculum, the
teachers are required to be creative in improving the materials for teaching. A
teacher should have an initiative and should be smart to arrange materials that will
be taught. Therefore, it is important for a teacher to deliver materials as fun as
possible and also give the authentic materials to get the students’ attention.
Teacher should introduce other materials as an alternative to give various
situations to student in classroom process. A good teaching reading process can
involve the reader in active interaction with what is presented in the text.
Especially in teaching reading of short functional texts that have many various
kinds of texts, the teacher has to make the students interested in learning about it.
Short functional texts are different from another text, because it always
appears in students’ daily life because the students must be familiar and must
comprehend those texts well. One of the ways to make reading class about short
functional texts more active is by using authentic materials for the students.
Authentic materials are materials used in the target culture for actual
communicative needs in teaching English. Using authentic materials in teaching
reading can give a lot of benefits for the students. Because the students can have
more inspiration to use the language and they have become accustomed to
exposure the language in real communication.
From the explanation above the writer wants to conduct a research to
knows the effectiveness of authentic materials in students’ reading
comprehension. Finally, the writer concludes to make a research as “The
4
Effectiveness of Using authentic Materials towards Students’ Reading
Comprehension of Short Functional Texts”.
B. Identification Problem
Based on the discussion in the background of the study, the researcher
identifies the problem as below:
1. School curriculum expects the students to have good reading comprehension
in target language.
2. Most of the students find difficulties in understanding of short functional
texts.
3. Students’ comprehension is still not progressing because the lack of examples
and authentic materials used by the teacher about those kinds of the texts in
teaching learning process.
4. Teaching reading comprehension about short functional text is not easy if the
students do not have interest in reading.
5. Authentic materials are rarely used by the teacher in teaching reading about
short functional texts.
C. Limitation of the Problem
This study is focused onthe effectivenessof authentic materials towards
reading comprehension of the students. The research conducted in the second
grade junior high school in SMP Al-Hasra Bojong Sari, Depok.
D. Formulation of the Problem
Based on the background of the study that mentioned previously, the
research question can be formulated as “Is there any effectiveness of using
authentic materials towards students’ reading comprehension of short functional
texts?”
5
E. Purpose of the Study
The purposes of this study are to get the information about the effectiveness
of using authentic materials towards students’ reading comprehension of short
functional texts.
F. Significance of the Study
This study hopefully will give some benefits to;
1. Teacher
The teacher can enrich their teaching strategy to teach reading
comprehension using authentic materials in reading class, especially about
short functional text materials.
2. Students
The students can get some input to encourage their reading comprehension
about short functional text by using authentic materials.
3. Researcher
It is expected that the researcher will know how to teach reading
comprehension towards authentic materials. When the research has a benefit,
it can be an experience for the researcher to know whether the method
researched has a good influence. Then, the researcher can use this method for
teaching in the future.

CHAPTER II
LITERATURE REVIEW
A. Reading
1. The Definition of Reading
Reading is about understanding written text. This skill is dominated to
exercise the eyes and the brain. Reading consists of two related processes, word
recognition and comprehension. As the one of four skills that learned at the school,
reading becomes one of the important skills to be comprehended by the students.
According to Silberstein on her book, Techniques and Resources in Teaching
Reading, “Reading is a complex information processing skill in which the reader
interacts with text in order to re (create) meaningful discourse”1. Reading is the most
important foreign language skill, because the other skills like listening, speaking and
writing involving reading as their part of activity.
Reading also means as dealing with language messages in written or printed
form2 or it can be stated that reading is the ability to draw meaning from the printed
page and can be interpreted the information from the texts appropriately. The best
way to understand reading is see it as a process of active guessing and understanding
the texts in which the readers use some clues to understand the text. Harmer also
stated on his book, “How to Teach English, “reading is useful for other purposes too:
any exposure to English (provided students understand it more or less) is a good thing
for English students”.3 From that definition, it can be concluded that reading is the
process of people to learn and to get knowledge by understanding of the text or
printed words, in written form and have many purposes which related with other skill
in English.

3Jeremy Harmer, How to Teach English, (Harlow: Longman, 1998), p. 68.

2. Definition of Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehension is the way of readers in getting information from the
text relatively. Not all readers are capable to comprehend the text quickly, that ability
normally taken by fluent readers because they usually have the habit of reading.
According to Susan E. Israel and Gerald G. Duffy “Reading comprehension is only a
subset of an ill-defined larger set of knowledge that reflects the communicative
interaction among the intentions of the author/the speaker, the content text/message,
the abilities and purpose of the reader/listener, and the context/situation of the
interaction”.4 This ability makes the students construct meaning from a given written
text. It is not a static competency, because it depends on the purpose of reading and
the text is involved. It means that the purpose of reading the kinds of the text is
related each other. When we read a text, the ability to identify the idea of the text is
the important point after we know the topic of that text. After read the text, the
readers hopefully know what the text means because reading comprehension is a
process of connecting the topic of the text to student’s prior knowledge.5
The process of comprehension is like making a cake, that mental process in
achieving something and to check that a step has not been missed. To comprehend the
text of reading, the students must be able to predict the text. Although they do not
know the vocabulary, but it is hoped they know the key of the text. Some processes
happen when you are reading, as you read your brain tells your eyes what to look in
order to make connections. To be successful in reading comprehension, students need
to actively comprehend what they read. It means that the readers must be able to
decode the words or recognize words from the text that they read.6 In conclusion,
reading comprehension is the ability to comprehend the meaning of the text with a set
of knowledge which reflect communicative interaction which including a good

8
mental process. It also needs a good reading skill to reach the ability of understanding
the texts to identify and decode the idea of the text.
3. Kinds of Reading
Studying about reading cannot be separated by kinds of reading. Because
reading skill is trained by studying some texts to get the detail information; short
texts, longer texts and complete books. There are two kinds of reading, extensive
reading and intensive reading.
a. Extensive Reading
Extensive reading is a form of learning form meaning focused input.
Extensive reading is one kinds of reading with one of the function is to find
the general information without any helping from some sources such as
dictionary or others. In extensive reading, reading is a source of learning and a
source of enjoyment. It can be a goal in its own right and a way of reaching
others goal. Extensive reading provides the conditions for fluency
development of a course depending on the level of the books that the learners
read.
Extensive reading generally involves rapid reading of the large
quantities of material or longer reading to understand the whole book. The
function of extensive reading is to take general understanding of the text. The
reader has to read and understand the content for the meaning.
b. Intensive Reading
Intensive reading is the activity of intensive study of the texts that can
increase learners’ knowledge of language features and their control of reading
strategy. Intensive reading focuses on comprehension of particular text and it
will be useful when reading other texts. It is also called as aclose reading
means that when a reader read a short passage he/she must give all the
attention into vocabulary, reading text, and organization. According to
9
Nuttall“the aim of intensive reading is to arrive at an understanding, not only
of the text means, but of how the meaning is produced”7.
In intensive work on a reading text, the ‘how’ is as important as the
‘what’ which can be used by the students to train the strategy that can go on to
use with other text. These are the following aspects which influence the
following aspect of intensive reading.
1. Comprehension
In comprehension intensive reading can aim the understanding a particular
text.
2. Vocabulary
Learners’ attention can be drawn to useful words, underlying the meaning
and use of these words for later study.
3. Grammar
Difficult grammatical features can be explained and analysed.
4. Cohesion
Learners can practice to interpreting of the text, what pronouns refer to,
conjunction relationships between sentences are, and how different words
are used to refer to the same idea.
5. Regular and irregular sound-spelling relations
This can be done by teaching of phonics, spelling rules, and reading aloud.
6. Information structure
Certain texts contain certain kinds of information. Learners can be helped
to identify these different kinds of information.
7. Genre features
Intensive reading can focus on how the text achieves its communicative
purpose through these features and what this communicative purpose is.
7Christine Nuttall, Teaching Reading Skills in a Foreign Language, (Oxford: Heinemann,1996), p. 38.
10
8. Strategies8
Intensive reading can be used to help learners develop useful reading
strategies.
4. The Purpose of Reading
Reading is one of the activities that usually do by people in everywhere and
every time. Many people have different purposes when they are reading a text or a
book, it can be for searching information or for reading pleasure. Because of this
condition, the purposes of reading are become complex and vary. Many experts have
different idea about definition and explanation of reading. As Jo McDonough and
Christopher Shaw in their book quote usefully classifies reading into:
a. Getting general information from the text
b. Getting specific information from a text
c. For pleasure or for interest 9
McDonough and Shaw divide the purpose of reading above, getting general it
is mean that the reader want to know about the information from that book in
generally. The reader wants to know about all of the important information from that
book/ text. While, getting specific information means that the reader want to know
the detail of the text, to know when or where something happen, to know what is
happening or has happened in detail information which written in the text. The last is
reading for pleasure or interest, in this purpose the reader just want to feel relax and
for their enjoyment in leisure time.
William Grabe and Fredricka L. Stoller state in their book about the purposes
of reading as follows:
a. Reading to search for simple information and reading to skim
b. Reading to learn from texts
8I . S. P. Nation, Teaching ESL/EFL Reading and Writing, (New York: Routledge, 2009), p.27.
9 Jo McDonough and Christopher Shaw, Materials and Methods in ELT: A Teacher’s Guide,(Oxford: Blackwell Publishing, 2003), p. 90.
11
c. Reading to integrate information, write and critique texts
d. Reading for general comprehension 10
The first purpose is as same as with the purpose of reading above that is for
search or gets the information. Because most people believe that this is a common
reading ability. It can use scan or skim. Scan is the ability to see the keywords for
specific piece of information or a specific word in the text. Same with scan, skim is a
common part of reading task and it is useful skill in reading ability. Skim needs a
good combination of strategy in reading also a good basic reading comprehension
skill. The second is reading to learn from texts, it occurs in academic and
professional context. It includes about the main idea, rhetorical frames, and link about
the prior knowledge of the reader itself. The third is reading to integrated information,
write and critique texts. This purpose require critical evaluation of the information
which being read, so the reader can integrate the information for the reader’s goal.
Meanwhile reading to write and critique text need ability to compose, select, and
critique the information from the text. The last is reading for general comprehension,
it is the most basic purpose of reading. This ability usually occurs automatically by
fluent reader.
Francoise Grellet said in her book that the reasons for purpose of reading are
reading for pleasure and reading for information (in order to find out something or in
order to do something with the information you get).11 Reading become the activity to
spending leisure time and also gets the information from the text after we read it.
In generally the idea of purpose of reading by some experts above have
similarity. They agree that the first and the basic purpose of reading are to get
information and general comprehension from the text, which can use scan and skim
technique. Reading also can be a pleasure activity in leisure time. Based on the
10 William Grabe and Fredricka L. Stoller, Teaching and Researching Reading, (Harlow:Longman, 2002), p. 13.
11Grellet.loc. cit.

explanation above, we can conclude that the purpose of reading is depending by the
readers. It can be established by the readers before doing reading activity.
B. Short Functional Text
1. The Understanding of Text
Talking about reading, it cannot be separated with text as the material.
Because, for centuries text have the important role in language teaching, especially in
teaching reading. Because reading need text to be read. Based on Floriasti cited by
Anderson, text are pieces of written or spoken language created for a particular
purpose and context.12 That definition tells us that text is not always in written form.
It can be spoken text, not always in printed form because it can be a word or as thick
as a book. When the words put together although spoken or written but the meaning
is to communicate meaning, the text is created. Reading intent of a text can affect to
the nature of the information that required from text. Text is valuable as units of
communication rather than sentences.13
The text aims at convincing the reader to know the purpose, and giving him
information. When we use language for various purposes, numerous of text is
resulted. There were many several of text types, so the text types that were given to
the students were various, such as narrative, recount, procedural, functional, and
descriptive. The important thing about text is text should be communicative to
convey the meaning. In conclusion, text is a product of language not only about
words or sentence but also convey about the meaning on it because it can be written
or spoken.
2. The Understanding of Short Functional Text.
Short Functional Text or factual text is a short text that contains the command,
direction, something to do or not to do that can be a prohibition, invitation, Greeting

13
Cards, short message, shopping list, warning (notice), announcement, and others that
contain meaning and use in everyday communication. While the essay texts in the
form of descriptive, narrative, recount, report, and the procedure is a lengthy text that
can be categorized into Long Functional Text (The term is not raw / not commonly
used).14
Short Functional text is a transcription that meant to help the reader to
accomplish an everyday task. Based on Halliday and Hasan states, a text can be said
as functional. By functional, it means that language in a text is doing something in a
context.15 Examples of functional text might include a recipe for cooking; directions
to a location; a memo notifying of a change in a company's address, or a store's
opening time; a schedule of event times and locations during a seminar; a directory of
addresses, phone numbers or e-mail addresses; directions on a test; a menu from a
restaurant; a pamphlet notifying the public of a grand opening, store closing, or a
foreclosure; or a how-to manual just to name a few.
Functional text is used for everyday information. Its presents information or
ideas and aim to show, tell or persuade the audience.16 It is called functional because
it helps you function in your day-to-day life. For example, if I want to make chocolate
chip cookies, I will read a recipe. If I want to know my friend's phone number, I will
look in a phone book. If my English teacher gives a test, I will need to read the
directions.

C. Authentic Materials
1. The Understanding of Authentic Materials
There are many discussions of the use of authentic texts or materials in
English as a foreign language (EFL) classroom. Jack C. Richards stated in his book
that authentic materials refers to the use in teaching of texts, photographs, video
selections, and other teaching resources that were not specially prepared for
pedagogical purposes.17 Jeremy Harmer said about the definition of authentic text
which is designed for native, it is a real text not designed for language students, but
for the speakers of the language. Thus English language newspapers are composed of
what we would call authentic English, and so are radio programs of English speakers.
A British advertisement is an example of authentic English, so is a chapter from
novel written for an English-speaking audience.18
FeritKilickaya also explains that the common definition of authentic materials
is ‘exposure’ to real language and its use in its own community. He wrote:
Many teachers have discussed that English presented in the classroom should beauthentic, not produced for instructional purposes. Generally what this means ismaterials which involve language naturally occurring as communication in nativespeaker context of use, or rather those selected contexts where Standard English isthenorm: real newspaper report, for example, real magazine articles, real advertisements,cooking recipes, horoscopes, etc.19
Authentic materials can be called as appropriate and quality in terms of goals,
objectives, learner’s need and interest and natural in terms of real life and meaningful
communication.Authentic materials is the materials which not written for teaching
language purposes and it is designed for the native speaker of the language. To make
it meaningful in communication those objective and goal should represent the
learner’s need.
17 Jack C. Richards, Curriculum Development in Language Teaching, (Cambridge:Cambridge University press, 2001), p. 252.
18 Jeremy Harmer, The Practice of English Language Teaching, New Edition, (London andNew York: Longman, 1991), p. 181.
19FeritKilickaya, Authentic Materials and Cultural Content in EFL Classrooms, retrieved on5th June 2013 from http://www.metu.edu.tr/-kilickaya/. p. 1
22
Grellet said authenticity means that nothing of the original text is changed and
also that its presentation and layout retained.20 It means that the using of authentic
materials should be represented as it first appeared in the paper, for the example a
newspaper article. First appeared means that article still has the same typeface, the
same space by the headline and same picture. Because the reprint or the changes of
article will never be completely authentic, to keep them as authentic as possible in
order to help the students anticipate meaning by using non-linguistic clues.
The description of authentic text could be defined as “materials that what
students will need and want to be able to read when travelling, studying abroad, or
using the language as it is used outside the classroom. The aim of authentic text is not
literary form or stylistic but it should be to understand the meaning and to emphasis
on what is being said”21
One of the main ideas of using authentic materials in the classroom is to
‘expose’ the students as much as real language as possible. Even if the classroom is
not in real life situation, authentic materials have a very important within it. The
sources of authentic materials that can be used in the classroom are infinite, but the
most common are newspaper, magazines, TV programs, movies, songs, and
literatures. Newspaper is as a part of authentic materials because it an invaluable
source of authentic materials and their use in the language classroom is very much in
keeping with current thinking and practice in teaching pedagogy.22
The writer can conclude that authentic materials are designed for native
speakers and not for language teaching. In this research, the writer want to use
authentic materials adopted from English newspaper and magazine that include short
story, announcement and advertising, that written by English people and designed for
native speakers.
20Grellet, op. cit., p. 8.21Sacha Anthony Berardo, The Use of Authentic Materials in the Teaching of Reading, (The
Reading Matrix:Vol.6, No.2, September 2006), p. 62.22Paul Sanderson, Using Newspaper in the Classroom, (Cambridge: Cambridge University
Press, 1999) p. 3.
23
2. The Understanding of Non Authentic Material
Using non authentic materials is not only the way to improve reading
comprehension because students only study the language in the classroom and not
being exposed in the real life. The term of non authentic materials or text is the
opposite of authentic text.
There is several discussion of non authentic text in language teaching terms.
According to Jeremy Harmer, “non authentic text could be described as a text that has
been written for language teaching purpose especially for language students.”23In the
other words, non authentic materials are designed especially for language learning
purposes.
The language that use in non authentic materials is artificial and varied,
because it concentrate on something that has to be taught and often containing a
series of false-text indicators that include:
Perfectly formed sentences (all the time);
A question using grammatical structure, gets a full answer;
Repetition of structure;
Very often does not ‘read’ well.24
From discussion above the writer defines that non-authentic text or materials
are text or materials that have intentionally been written for language teaching
purpose, it is often focused on grammatical structure like short story, label, and
personal letter.
3. Advantages and Disadvantages of Authentic Materials
a. The Advantages
The importance of using authentic materials for the students as stated by
Kilickaya, those students benefiting to exposure the real language being used in a real
23Harmer,op. cit., p. 185.24Berardo, op. cit., p. 62.
24
context. The main advantages of using authentic materials in the classroom therefore
include:
Having a positive effect on students motivation;
Giving authentic cultural information;
Exposing students to real language;
Relating more closely to student’s needs;
Supporting a more creative approach to teaching.25
Grellet said in her book that it is important to use authentic texts whenever
possible. There are several reasons for this.
a) Simplifying a text often results in increased difficulty because the system of
references, repetition and redundancy as well as the discourse indicators one
relies on when reading are often removed or at least significantly altered.
b) Getting the students accustomed to reading authentic texts from the very
beginning does not necessarily mean a much more difficult task on their
part.26
Based on the explanation above, by using authentic materials enables students
to interact with real language, real situation and more focus on the content than the
form. The students can feel that they are learning a target language as it used outside
the classroom. Also it’s to complete the gap between the competency and the
performance of the language learners, which is a common problem of non native
speaker. Because it requires in exposing the language patterns being put into practice
in real life situation and communication
25Kilickaya, op.cit., p. 2.26Grellet, op.cit., p. 7.
25
b. The Disadvantages
The disadvantages of using authentic materials have explained by Berardo
that authentic materials often contain difficult language, unneeded vocabulary items
and complex language structures, which can often create problems. Sometimes the
vocabulary may not be relevant to the learner’s need and too many structures can
create difficulty.27 For more detail this is the comparison about the advantages and
disadvantages of using authentic materials.
Authentic Materials
Table 2.1
Advantages Disadvantages
Real language exposure with language
change/variation being reflected.
Often too culturally biased, difficult to
understand outside the language
community.
Students are informed about what is
happening in the world.
Vocabulary might not be relevant to the
student’s needs.
Textbooks tend not to include improper
English and become outdated very
quickly.
Too many structures are mixed so lower
levels have problems decoding the texts.
The same piece of materials can be used
for different tasks.
Special preparation is necessary, can be
time consuming.
Ideal for teaching/practicing mini-skill-
skimming/scanning.
Can become outdated easily, e.g. news
stories, article.
Contain a wide variety of text types,
language styles not easily found in
conventional teaching materials.
Using authentic materials is a burden for
teachers.28
27Berardo, op.cit., p.65.28 Richards,op.cit.,p. 253.
26
Encourage reading for pleasure, likely to
contain topics of interests.
So the use of authentic materials for teaching reading should be relevant and
matched with the learner’s need or interest. It is also important to consider the ability
level of the students. Moreover, the students can feel comfortable and confidence
when they using authentic materials in reading class.
4. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Non-Authentic Materials
a. The Advantages
The good aspects of using non authentic materials are to make the students
easy to cope with reading text, because non authentic texts are artificial language and
varied. Non authentictext is emphasized on grammatical structures. It will be easier to
analyze the text because it contains with formed sentences, simple grammatical
structure and easy vocabulary, unlike with authentic materials which contains with
complicated structures and vocabulary.
b. The Disadvantages
The disadvantages of using non authentic is the students are hardly to be a
good reader because they would not be acquiring real language.29 Students will be
bored with the same reading texts that are not attracting them, and it will make them
passive and become be a slow reader. The students can feel that they are not used to
be challenged to be good reader by variety of the texts.
5. The Application of Teaching Reading Comprehension of Short Functional
Text by Using Authentic Materials.
The teaching reading comprehension of short functional text by using
authentic materials have some activities on it.
1. Teacher ask the students’ idea or experience related the material will be
discussed.
29 Harmer, op.cit., p. 187.
27
2. Teacher gives the students the example of short functional text.
3. Teacher explains about each functional text that will be discussed, such as
announcement, invitation, notice, advertisement and short message.
4. Teacher show the authentic materials of short functional texts to the students.
5. Teacher asks the students to read and understand the authentic material of
short functional text.
6. Teacher asks the students to identify the features of short functional text based
on the authentic material.
7. Teacher makes groups of students.
8. Each group gets the authentic materials of short functional text.
9. Each group has to make the functional text with good arrangement and
features based on the authentic material which they have.
10. The teacher makes quiz related to the functional text discussed in each
meeting.
11. After four meeting, the teacher conducts a test to measure students’
comprehension of short functional text.
6. The Application of Teaching Reading Comprehension of Short Functional
Text by Using Textbook.
The application of teaching reading comprehension of short functional text by
using textbook in the classroom, as below:
1. Teacher ask the students’ idea or experience related the material will be
discussed.
2. Teacher gives the students the example of short functional text.
3. Teacher explains about each functional text that will be discussed, such as
announcement, invitation, notice, advertisement and short message.
4. Teacher asks the students to read and understand of short functional text in
textbook.
5. Teacher asks the students to identify the features of short functional in
textbook.
28
6. Teacher makes groups of students.
7. Each group has to make the functional text with good arrangement and
features based on the example in textbook which they read.
8. The teacher makes quiz related to the functional text discussed in each
meeting.
9. After four meeting, the teacher conducts a test to measure students’
comprehension of short functional text.
D. Textbook
1. Textbook in Teaching and Learning Activity
Textbook becomes a familiar source that the students and the teachers need
which provides materials used by the students in the learning process. Most of the
teachers using text book in their teaching activity. There is nothing wrong when the
teachers using textbook, because in textbook the materials consist of the exercise, the
discussion, and the example of the topic learned by the students. Textbook are used in
different ways in language programs. Textbook serves the basic communicative
function of instructing/informing a readership which is taken to be uninformed.30 For
example, a reading textbook might be the basis for a course on reading skills,
providing both a set of reading texts and exercises for skill practice.31There are some
reasons why teachers use textbook. Textbook become the guidance for them in
managing the materials for teaching in the classroom. The teachers just need to adapt
the materials from textbook. Textbook also can facilitate them in managing the
materials, because it contains various activities that can make the teaching activity
more effective such as exercise, discussion, etc.
Teachers have different options for using textbook. Firstly is omit, teacher can
omitting the materials from textbook. They can pick or choose the materials or the
approach for their students. Second option is to replace. Replace means that the
30,F.I. Davies, “Textbooks”, in Bernard Spolky, Concise Encyclopedia of EducationalLinguistics,(Oxford: Elsevier, 1999). p. 337.
31 Richards,op.cit., p. 254.
29
teachers replace the textbook lesson or materials with one the teacher’s own. This has
advantages that the teacher’s own materials probably more interest than textbook and
it may be appropriate for the students. Third option is to add what is in the book.
When the lesson is too boring and too controlled and do not give the students to use
what they learned, teachers can add some activities and exercise. Those are to extend
the students’ engagement with the language or topic. Addition is the good alternative
for the teacher when they use textbook for teaching activities.
The last option is to adapt what is in the book. When the materials such as
reading text in textbook are boring or uncreative for the students, teachers can adapt
the lesson. They can use the same basic material but doing it in their own style in
teaching. Using textbook creatively is one of the premier teaching skills.32 A good
teacher is someone who can adapt the materials and exercises, replace textbook
material with their own ideas and occasionally they may omit textbook lesson
completely.
2. The Advantages and Disadvantages Using Textbook.
a. The Advantages
There are some advantages and disadvantages in using the textbooks in
teaching and learning activity. According to Ur the advantages of using the textbooks
are:
1) Framework: textbooks gives clear framework for students and teachers so,
they know where they are going to learn and to teach.
2) Syllabus: it provides clear and systematic syllabus.
3) Ready-made texts and tasks: provides the students with ready-made texts
and learning task which are appropriate for their level. So, the teachers don’t
need to prepare the materials.
32Harmer, op. cit. p. 112.
30
4) Economy: compare to the photocopied papers or computer software,
textbooks are the cheapest way of learning materials.
5) Convenience: the packaging of the textbook is convenient. They are easily to
be carried out, and textbooks do not depend for its use on hardware or supply
or electricity.
6) Guidance: the textbook can provide a guidance for the teacher who are
inexperienced or unsure about their own knowledge.
7) Autonomy: the learners will learn the new materials, reviews, and monitor
progress provided in the textbook autonomously.33
Jack C. Richards state in his book about the advantages of textbook as
follows:
1) It provides structure and syllabus for a program.
It means that textbook has significant position in teaching learning. Without
textbook a program may have no central core and learners may not receive a
syllabus that has been systematically planned and developed.
2) It helps standardize instruction
Using textbook in the classroom can ensure that the students in different
classes receive similar content and therefore can be tested in the same way.
3) It maintain quality
When a well-developed textbook is used, students are exposed to materials
that have been tried and tested.
4) It provide a variety of learning resources
Textbooks are often accompanied by workbooks, CDs and cassettes, videos,
CD-ROMs, and comprehensive teaching guides, providing a rich and varied
resource for teachers and learners.
33Penny Ur, A Course in Language Teaching: Practice and Theory, (New York: CambridgeUniversity Press, 2001) p. 184.
31
5) Textbook is efficient
Textbook can save teachers’ time, enabling teachers to devote time to
teaching rather than materials production.
6) Textbook can provide effective language models and input
It can provide support for teachers whose first language is not English and
who may not be able to generate accurate language input on their own.
7) Textbook can train teachers34
When the teachers have limited experience in teaching, a textbook can be the
guideline for the teacher and can serve as a medium of initial teachers
training.
b. The Disadvantages
Besides the advantages, textbooks also have some disadvantages. Based on
Ur, the disadvantages of textbooks are:
1)Inadequacy: textbooks cannot fulfill every students’ learning needs because
they have their own different learning needs.
2)Irrelevance, lack of interest: the textbook should provide interesting topic and
activities for students because they may be unmotivated if the topic of the
textbook is not interesting.
3)Limitation: the materials and activity may make the teacher become dependent
to the textbook, and it will inhibit their creativity in designing their own
materials and activity for their students.
4)Homogeneity: textbook is created with the different author who has different
approach or teaching technique, so it’s not always appropriate with the variety
of levels, ability and learning styles.
34 Richards, op.cit., pp. 254--255
32
5)Over-easiness: sometimes, teachers find it too easy to follow the course book
uncritically instead of using their initiatives.35
Jack C. Richards also states in his book about the disadvantages of textbooks
are:
1) Textbook may contain inauthentic language
Textbook sometimes present inauthentic language because texts, dialogues,
and other aspects of content tend to be specially written to incorporate
teaching points and it often not representative of real language use.
2) It may distort content
Textbook often present an idealized view of the world or fail to represent real
issues.
3) It may not reflect students’ needs
Textbook is often written for global markets, they may not reflect the interest
and need of students and hence may require adaptation.
4) It can deskill teachers
When teacher use textbook as the primary source of their teaching, teacher’s
role can become reduced to that of a technician whose primary function is to
present materials prepared by others.
5) Textbook is expensive36
Commercial textbook represent a financial burden for students in many part of
the world.
35 Ur, op.cit,.p.185.36 Richards, op.cit., pp. 255-256.

F. Previous of the Study
The studies about the use of authentic materials for language teaching are
abounding. The firststudy is byPujiSayekti, she did a study about the use authentic
materials in teaching speaking, especially in the first grade of junior high school. Her
participants were three teachers from different junior high school in different area of
Jakarta. The result showed that most of the school had not implemented CBC 2004
and the teachers had not fully understood about authentic materials.37
The differences of this research with her studies are this research did a study
about the use of authentic materials towards reading comprehension, especially in
functional texts. Participants of this research are second grade students of junior high
school.
The second research is by SitiSundari.Her research was conducted to find the
effectiveness of picture as authentic materials to improve students’ writing in
descriptive text. This research was designed in the one-group pre-test and post-test.
The participants of this study were 22 students (12 boys and 10 girls). The result of
this study showed that the writing score achieved by the eighth grade of MTs
RadenPaku improved after they were taught using pictures as authentic material.
Based on analytic scoring using jacobet al, pictures were effective to improve the
content and organization, but less effective to improve vocabulary, language use and
mechanics. Even though pictures could not improve all of aspects of writing in the
same time, but overall the students’ writing, pictures as authentic materials could
improve students’ writing in descriptive texts.38
The differences of this research with her studies are this research did a study
about the use of authentic materials towards reading comprehension, especially in
37PujiSayekti, How to Teachers Use authentic Materials in Teaching Speaking in the FirstGrade of SMP in Jakarta: A Case Study. Thesis. (English Department, Faculty of Language and Art,State Islamic University of Jakarta, Jakarta, 2006). Tidakdipublikasikan.

34
functional texts. She did her studies using a case study, but in this research the writer
conducted using quasi experimental with control and experiment class.
The thirdresearch is by SitiHalijah.She was conducted study to describe
whether or not use the authentic materials improve the students vocabulary to develop
descriptive paragraph of the ten grade of students of SMAN 2 Sugguminasa. The
research used pre-experimental method with one group, and the samples of the study
were 35 students of tenth grade of SMAN 2 Sungguminasa. The result of this study
showed that the mean score of post-test was higher than pre-test in writing skill. She
used t-test in data analysis. Based on data analysis, she concluded that the
implementation by using authentic materials improved of the students’ vocabulary.39
The differences of this research with her studies are this research did a study
about the use of authentic materials towards reading comprehension, especially in
functional texts. She did her studies using pre-experimental method, but in this
research the writer conducted using quasi experimental with control and experiment
class and the participants are second grade junior high school students.
F.Theoretical Framework
Reading is one of four skills that are learned at the school. Reading is also
something crucial and indispensable for the students because the success of their
study depends on the greater part of their ability to read. If their reading skill is poor
they are very likely to fail in their study or at least they will have difficulty in making
progress. On the other hand, if they have a good ability in reading, they will have a
better chance to succeed in their study. Most of the students are still cannot
understand and get difficulties in comprehend reading; because reading is receptive
skill and most of the students have difficulty in understand the text, vocabulary and
purpose of the text.

A good teaching reading process can involve the reader in active interaction
what is presented in the text. A good teacher must have a strategy and appropriate
technique to teach reading. In order the students are not bored to learn English
especially when teach reading, the teacher should more creative. Using authentic
materials in teaching reading can give a lot of benefits for the students. Because the
students can have more inspiration to use the language and they have become
accustomed to exposure the language in real communication.
In second grade junior high, standard competence of reading skill is the
students are able to comprehend kinds of short functional texts. Short functional texts
itself divided by kinds of text, such as memo, invitation, poster, announcement, letter,
etc. One of way to make the students more appreciate in English reading class in
learning functional text is with use the authentic of that text or authentic materials in
teaching reading. So the writer tries to apply authentic materials in teaching reading
comprehension to make the students appreciate and do not confuse again when they
should develop their reading comprehension of short functional texts.
G. Hypotheses
Null Hypothesis ( ): there is no significance influence difference between the
students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using authentic
materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade students of SMP
Al-HasraBojongsari.
Alternative Hypothesis ( ): there is significant influence difference between the
students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using authentic
materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade students of SMP
Al-Hasra Bojongsari.

explaining phenomena by collecting numerical data that are analyzed using
mathematically based methods (in particular statistics).1 The research design is quasi
experimental study. The experimental class which is taught reading by using
authentic materials then the control class which the writer taught by using textbook.
C. Population and Sample
Population is a place of generalization that consist of subject and object of the
research with certain quality and characteristic that are standardized by the researcher
in order to learn from them and then to draw a conclusion from them.2 In this
research, the populations are the students at the second grade of SMP Al-Hasra
Bojongsari. Realizing in second grade of junior high school they will learn a lot of
kinds of the text which is suitable for researcher doing her research.
In this research, the sample of the population was taken from two classes in
SMP Al-HasraBojongsari. The class was divided into four classes, and they are 8.1
(plus), 8.2 (plus), 8.3 (regular), and 8.4 (regular). The samples are from regular class
8.3 and 8.4., the writer choose those classes because their quantity fulfill for doing the
experimental method.

D. Technique of Data Collection
Technique and instruments in data collection are:
Test
1. Pre-test
Pre-test is the test which is given in the first meeting before the teaching and
learning process due to measure in which level the knowledge of the students is.
2. Post-test
Post-test is the test that was given after finishing the learning of the materials
in the classroom. This test is held in order to know if there any progress before and
after teaching and learning activity by using authentic materials or without authentic
materials.
E. Instrument of The study
The instrument that the researcher used for collecting data is test. The test was
divided into two tests, pre-test and post-test. The pre-test will give to the students
before the treatment and the post-test after the treatment. The test using multiple
choices contains 20 numbers about short functional texts. To get the validity and
reliability of the data, the writer did the validity of the test to 32 students from 8.1 and
8.2. The test contained 30 numbers multiple choices. After the calculation in
ANATES 4, it was found that there were 10 items is very significant, 5 items is
significant, 11 items is adequate and 4 items is insignificant. The reliability of the test
is 0.54, based on Arifin the category of reliability of the test is sufficient.

F. Technique of Data Analysis
The next step of the research, the writer will process and analyze the data. The
writer analyzes the score pre-test and post-test. This is to find out the differences of
students’ scores by using authentic materials and without using authentic materials.
The technique of data analysis that is used by the writer in this research is statistic
analysis with t-test, the formula is: = −With the explanation:M = Mean of the differences of Experiment Class
M2 = Mean of the differences of Controlled Class
SE = Standard Error of Experiment Class
SE = Standard Error of Controlled Class
X = Teaching Reading Comprehension using authentic materials

Hypothesis in the research is a guessing that leads to the research which mean
that hypothesis have to be tested and not always be right, but to measure how far the
truth which is served to the problem researched. Besides, in formulating hypothesis,
40
the researcher has to ensure the information. In this research, the researcher proposing
a hypothesis:
Null Hypothesis ( ): there is no significance influence difference between the
students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using authentic
materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade students of
SMP Al-Hasra Bojongsari.
Alternative Hypothesis ( ): there is significant influence difference between the
students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using authentic
materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade students of
SMP Al-Hasra Bojongsari.
If t-test (to) > t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05, Ho (null hypothesis) is
rejected.
If t-test (to) < t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05, Ho (the null hypothesis)
is accepted.
df = (N1 + N2) – 2 = (35 + 35) – 2 = 70-2 = 68. (It must be consulted with “t”
table of df. If df 68, the value is: the significance level at 5 % is 1.66).

CHAPTER IV
RESEARCH FINDINGS
A. Description of the Data
The experiment class and the controlled class were taught with different
technique in teaching reading. The experimental class was taught short functional
text using authentic materials, whereas the controlled class used the text from
textbook. The data shown in this part were collected from students’ score in pre-
test and post-test of both experiment class and controlled class. The data were
described into two tables. The table 4.2 showed the students’ score in experiment
class and the table 4.3 showed the students’ score in control class.

From the description of score in experimental class above, it could be seen
that from 35 students in the class, the mean of pre-test was 60.28 and the mean of
post-test was 75.14. So, the writer got the mean of gain score was 14.85. Based on
the table previously, the highest students’ score in pre-test was 90 obtained by one
student. Meanwhile, the lowest of students’ score in pre-test was 35 by three
students. From differences score obtained between the highest students’ score was
90 and the lowest students’ score was 35 before the students get treatments in
using authentic materials. And based on the table above, it showed that the highest
student’s score in post-test was 95 by two students. And the lowest students’ score
in post-test was 35 by one student. For the differences between the students’ score
in prê-test and students’ score in post-test, it can be conclude that there was a
positive effects of using authentic materials in students’ reading comprehension of
short functional texts.

From the description of score in controlled class above, it could be seen
that from 35 students in the class, the mean of pre-test was 65.57 and the mean of
post-test was 74.28. The writer got the mean of gain score was 8.71. The smallest
score in the pre-test was 40 by two students and the highest score was 90 by one
student. After the writer giving the treatment without using authentic materials,
the writer gave the students post-test. The data showed in post-test that the
smallest score was 35 by one student and the highest score was 95 by five
students. From the differences of table 4.1 and 4.2 above it, it can be concluded
that there was positive effect in teaching reading comprehension of functional text
through authentic materials.

The value of df 68 at the degrees of significance 5% or ttable is 1.66
10. The Testing of Hypothesis
The statistical hypothesis of this research can be seen as:
Null Hypothesis ( ): there is no significance influence difference between
the students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using
authentic materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade
students of SMP Al-Hasra Sawangan.
Alternative Hypothesis ( ): there is significant influence difference between
the students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts through using
authentic materials and without using authentic materials to the second grade
students of SMP Al-Hasra Sawangan.
And then, the criteria used as follows:
1. If t-test (to) > t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05, Ho (null
hypothesis) is rejected.
2. If t-test (to) < t-table (tt) in significant degree of 0.05, Ho (the null
hypothesis) is accepted.
C. Interpretation of the Data
Based on the formula above, the result of the statistic calculation indicated
that the value of = 2.29 and the value of df (degree of freedom) 68 with significance
5% is 1.66.The result showed that t-test (to) > t-table (tt) (2.29 > 1.66). It means
that t-test was higher in the value 2.29 than t-table. Since score in the table is
higher than score obtain from the result of calculating, so the alternative
hypothesis ( ) is accepted and the null hypothesis ( ) is rejected.
48
Based on the explanation about the result on the table above, we can
conclude that teaching reading comprehension of short functional texts using
authentic materials is quite success. From the data of students’ score was increase
after they using authentic material. Moreover, it can be said that using authentic
materials affect students’ reading comprehension of short functional text.
Based on the analysis of the result on the tables above, it can be interpreted
that teaching reading by using authentic materials can enhance the students’
reading comprehension of short functional texts. According to Harmer, some
authentic written material is appropriate for beginner students. Because the topics
and the types of reading text should has a balance with students’ capabilities and
interests on the other. The important thing is that such texts are much like real
English as possible. The writer found that the students in the experimental class
more interesting to learn reading about short functional text, when they know the
authenticity of those texts.
49
CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTIONS
A. Conclusion
Based on the research that carried out in eight grade of SMP Al-Hasra
Bojong Sari academic year 2014/2015, it concluded that using authentic materials
is effective in teaching students’ reading comprehension of short functional texts.
The result of the statistic said that the result of the statistic calculation
indicated that the value of = 2.29 and the value of df (degree of freedom) 68
with significance 5% is 1.66. Comparing the with each values of degree
significance, the writer finds that is higher than .The result showed that t-
test (to) > t-table (tt) (2.29 > 1.66).
Since score in the table is higher than score obtain from the result
of calculating, so the alternative hypothesis ( ) is accepted and the null
hypothesis ( ) is rejected.
It can be said that, using authentic materials in students’ reading
comprehension of short functional texts is effective.
B. Suggestion
The writer wants to give some suggestions that might be useful for teachers
and students. These suggestions hopefully can helpthe teachers when they teach
reading and students when they learn about reading in the class, as follow:
1. Using authentic materials in teaching reading can attract the students’
interest. Because they will not just read the text but also know the
authentic of the text.
2. Use the authentic materials that related with their daily life, so they easy to
understand about the materials and about the purposes of the text.
50
3. Give the example of short functional texts that the students more familiar
with those sentences and they can apply it in their daily life.
4. The teacher should be more creative when giving the reading materials
especially when they want to teach about functional text. Because short
functional text contains many kinds of type text and it appears in daily life
activity.
As stated above, the writer believes that using authentic materials give a
positive effect for the students. Using authentic materials in teaching reading
can be a solution and an alternative way for teacher to make the students more
interesting in reading class.
