CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. Background
Language plays an important role in human life, people tries to acquire,
learn and use language as a tool of communication and simultaneously as social
symbol of humanity. A language is considered to be a system of communicating
with other people using sounds, symbols and words in expressing, ideas or
thought (Smith, 1981:211). As Ba’dulu (2009:5) described that language can have
an informational function in which language is used to convey information to
other persons. This language can be used in many forms through oral and written
communications as well as using expressions through body language. People need
language as a system of communicating to interact to other people and keep social
relation among the language user. These indicate that by means of language,
people can express their ideas and get information through communication
(Fromkin & Rodman, 1983:7).
Language learning is important for human’s social development because
we need language as a tool of communications while communications become one
of tools to create human’s social relationship (Robert M. Krauss & Chiy Yue
Chiu, 1990). As a language which is used by more than a half of population in the
world, English is considered and applied as international language. Since then, it
is very popular and has been spoken and learn by almost people in the world.
2
English is a tool of communication among peoples of the world to get trade,
social-cultural, science, and technology goals.
In such developing country like Indonesia, English has a vital role in all
aspects of life, particularly in science and technology. As Ampa (2010:6) noted
that the expansion of science and technology on international scale created a
world unified and dominated by two forces, technology and commerce, which in
their progress soon generated a demand for an international language. Further
more, it can be used for developing relationship in the international forum, to
tighten the relationship among nation in the world, etc. Moreover, English
competence is important in career development, therefore students need to
understand and use English to improve their confidence to face global
competition. The students learn English are intended to comprehended and
understand the text book learned in English, to gain knowledge and skill, and to
be ready entering to the university, as one of the text recruitment for students of
senior high school and university.
English is a formal subject in each school in Indonesia which the goals of
teaching and learning English are improving the four English skills. Those are
receptive skills (reading and listening) and the productive skills (speaking and
writing), within a specified word level and relevant grammatical structure in the
context of the specified themes, Bambamg Sugeng & Husna (1988). Suhendar &
Supinah (1992:35), in the communication process there are four different
activities that may be identified in language. Those are reading, speaking,
listening, and writing. They are support each other and cannot be separated one to
3
each other. Therefore, it named macro skill of language. These skills are
important. So, the students not only learns and masters one skill and ignores the
other. But, they should be learned and mastered in equal degrees.
Among the four skills mentioned above, reading gets the greatest
attention than other skills. Reading is the most important skill that the students
need for success in their studies. Students may rarely have opportunities to talk to
native speakers, but they have to read lengthily assignments in different subjects
with varying degrees of detail and difficulty. As Farhady in Faramazzi, (2000:3),
because of the rapid explosion in the world of science and technology, reading in
English has received priority among other objectives of English language
teaching. That is why the main goal of teaching English in many countries,
especially within the educational programs, is to improve the reading ability of the
students in order to enable them to extract new information from the original
sources in their fields.
In senior high school, to find out the students ability in comprehending
reading materials is very difficult because of some factors, these factor include,
attendance problems, behaviour problems, problems low academic achievement,
low socio economic status, lack vocabulary, frustrating level and defict disorder or
attention defict hyperactivity disorder (Brooks, 1977; slavin, 1989). One of them
is the students lack vocabulary or they are put in frustrating level. So the students
can not understand what they have read. Many students consider English is
difficult and not as their own language. So they lose their interest in learning
English, especially in reading English text. If the strategy of the teaching is
4
suitable for the students they will enjoy learning it. Students may have ability to
read English reading material, but it does not mean that they can also comprehend
reading material.
Based on the result of observation at the tenth grade students of SMA
Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar, the student’s ability to read passage is very less in
comprehend the meaning of the text. The students are really difficult to
comprehend what they read. The difficulties of the students faced in reading
comprehension are how to find out the main idea of each paragraph, this difficulty
is one of part of level comprehension namely literal comprehension and the other
difficulty is interpretive comprehension in which the students conclude the main
point of the text and what the text talk about. Therefore, the students need
teaching strategy that can develop their skill in reading comprehension. Many
strategies have been applies in schools or collage just to make the students
understand what they have learned, and of course each strategy has good values
for students. This research tries to apply a new strategy namely super seven
comprehension strategies that never been applied at the tenth grade students of
SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.
In this way, students work in pairs by applying seven comprehension
strategies such as making connection, predicting, questioning, monitoring,
visualising, making outline of pov and summarising. It provides an opportunity
for students discuss each other with their pair and promoted social interactions
among class members. This method is also helps them learn when and how to use
5
different strategies to monitor comprehension and to repair comprehension
problems.
Based on the statement above, the writer is interested to study entitled
“The Use of Super Seven Comprehension Strategies to improve the Students’
Reading Comprehension at the Tenth Grade Students of SMA Kartika
Wirabuana 1 Makassar.”
B. Problem Statement
Based on the background above, the researcher formulated the research
questions as follows:
1. How does super seven comprehension strategies increase the students’
literal comprehension at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika
Wirabuana 1 Makassar?
2. How does super seven comprehension strategies increase the students’
interpretive comprehension at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika
Wirabuan 1 Makassar?
C. Objectives of the Study
Based on the problem statements above, the objectives of the study are to
find out:
1. To find out the increasing of the students’ literal comprehension at the
tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.
2. To find out the increasing of the students’ interpretive comprehension at
the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.

D. Significance of the Study
This study is expected to be a piece of useful information and
contribution for the teaching and learning process. Super seven comprehension
strategies is a good strategy to apply in teaching and learning process. It is also
expected to become a meaningful contribution for the teacher, as a new alternative
to increase the students’ reading comprehension and encourage students’ to read
effectively in teaching and learning process.
E. Scope of the Study
This study is restricted to the use of super seven comprehension
strategies in teaching reading comprehension dealing with the levels of
comprehension namely, literal and interpretive to the tenth grade students of SMA
Kartika Wirabuan 1 Makassar, academic year 2014/2015. In this study, students
learn to use seven comprehension strategies in pairs by using narrative text for
reading comprehension.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
A. Previous Related Research Findings
The importance of reading comprehension is stated by many scholars in
many previous researches in English language teaching that supports and to be
references of this study. The previous studies that have implemented some
strategies like super seven comprehension strategies with positive results in
classrooms are as noted below:
Oczuks (2004:2), English language learners in a fifth grade classroom
improved when students used super seven comprehension strategies with their
science textbook. Student assisted one another in understanding word meaning,
getting the main idea, asking and answering questions, and relating what they
were learning to previous knowledge;
Green in Bedell and Oxford, (1996:49) studied 213 students of English
and found that high proficiency students used more strategies than low proficiency
ones, but moderately proficient students used more strategies than either high or
low proficiency students. It indicate that the collection of reading comprehension
strategies which apply in teaching reading significantly work well in improving
the students’ reading comprehension;
Curtis (2002), found that students need to be given numerous
opportunities to apply the different strategies they are learning, and that the
practice must take place in situations that are meaningful to students;
8
The National Reading Panel, (2000) found that readers need to learn to
work in groups, listen and understand their peers as they read, and help one
another promote effective reading comprehension. Readers who participate in
cooperative learning activities learn to focus and discuss reading materials. The
panel also found that readers learn comprehension strategies and do better on
comprehension tests when they participate in cooperative learning activities.
Related to the previous studies above, it can be that super seven is an
effective way to be apply for reading activity. It covers two parts of language
skill, which are reading and listening, this is focus on receptive skill in
comprehending. Hence, the goal of reading activity can be achiev naturally.
Through those findings, the research is going to apply super seven as how Oczuks
did in her previous research, where the students will read the material together
with their couple for some times then end by reading alone.
The differences super seven comprehension strategies with the other
strategies are the other strategies just allows the students to focus in reading and
find the meaning of the passage. In super seven the students will learn
cooperatively in pairs. This model combines some strategies that will be more
suitable to increase the receptive skills of English, they will apply seven strategies
such as making connections, predicting, questioning, monitoring, visualizing,
making outline of pov and summarizing.
The advantages of this model allow the students to work and learn
together with their couples to find the knowledge from the text they have been
read without further help from the teacher by applying some strategies which
9
related each other before, during and after reading. This model also gives the
students more control over their learning and social interactions with peers.
B. Super Seven Comprehension Strategies
1. What is Super Seven Comprehension Strategies ?
Super seven comprehension strategies is a reading comprehension
practice that use a number of comprehension strategies. Oczkus (2004:9),
explained that super seven comprehension strategies include seven strategies that
the students or readers apply when they are reading in pair using reciprocal
teaching based on the instructional elements. These reading strategies are: making
connection, predicting, questioning, monitoring, visualizing, making outline of
pov and summarizing. This have a similarity with the Collaborative Strategic
Reading while consist of some strategies that the students apply before, during
and after reading to build their background knowledge about the text and also
consist of two instructional elements. Those are modified reciprocal teaching
(Palincsar & Brown, 1984) and cooperative learning or students pairing (Johnson
& Johnson, 1987).
In reciprocal teaching, teacher and students take turns reading a dialogue
concerning key features of the text through summarizing, questioning, clarifying,
and predicting. Reciprocal teaching was designed as discussion technique and
developed with the intention of aiding students having difficulty with reading
comprehension. Students work independently using some strategies to
comprehend the content of the text. At any time, students can and should received
10
the teacher support, which helps them to move and solve their problem through
more difficult texts and reading tasks (Oczuks, 2003:2).
The National Reading Panel (2000) identifies the use of cooperative
learning as a proven way to successfully teach comprehension. Cooperative
learning involves students working together as partners or in small groups on
clearly defined tasks. Because reciprocal teaching is intended as a discussion
technique, cooperative learning is vital to its use (Oczuks, 2003:2). Reciprocal
teaching builds on the cooperative nature of learning that causes one’s reading
comprehension to be deepened through social interactions.
2. Implementation of Super Seven Comprehension Strategies
Super seven can be implemented in two phases: (a) teaching the
strategies, and (b) student pairing activity. The implementation steps describe
below:
a. Teaching Strategies
Students learn seven strategies: making connections, predicting,
questioning, monitoring, visualizing, making outline of pov and summarizing.
Making connections and predicting is used before reading the entire text for the
lesson; questioning and monitoring is used during reading the text, after each
paragraph; and after reading the entire text, the students apply visualizing, making
outline and summarizing, Mauren Mclaughlin (2009:202)
1). Making Connections. Making connections is a strategy to activate the students’
prior knowledge and to generate interest that the students apply before
11
reading. A teacher introduce making connections to students by asking them
to make personal connections from the text with something in their own life
(text to self), another text (text to text), and something occurring in the world
(text to world). The teacher prompts students to tell what they learn from
making connections by giving questions or statements such as, “This story
reminds me of a holiday to my grandfather’s farm” or “does this remind you
of something?” Then the teacher asks them to skim information such as
headings, pictures, and words that are bolded or underlined to determine what
they know about the topic.
2). Predicting. Predicting is a strategy to facilitate their predictions about what
they will read before reading. Students use information from graphics, text and
experiences to anticipate what will be read. When you make a prediction, you
make a guess as to the content of the text based on clues the teacher provides.
As you read, you will either confirm or revise your prediction. You might also
make other predictions. Model how to predict for students by looking and
noting the title, author, cover illustrations (if using a book), and illustrations or
graphics within the text. The teacher may use questions to activate the students
predicting such as “What do you think will happen next?” or “what words or
images do you expect to see in this text?” By this prediction they will easier to
comprehend the content of the text.
3). Questioning. Questioning is a strategy that help the students identify the main
ideas of the text during reading. The students generate questions refers to the
content of the passage. Explain to students that asking questions helps the
12
reader monitor and understand their reading. "When I ask a question, I ask
something that can be answered as I read." Model for students how to generate
questions. Students can also develop questions based on the text by using 5W
and H questions to identify the most important person, place, or thing. The
questions can be like “who or what is it about?” and “what is the most
important about the who or what?”. One way to identify the main ideas is to
answer these questions. By the pose and answer the questions, the students can
identify the important things of the text.
4). Monitoring. Monitoring is a strategy that teaches the students to monitor their
understanding during reading, and to use fix-up strategy when they realize
their failure to understand text. The students stop and think about the text and
know what to do when the meaning is disrupted. The teacher may ask the
students to reread the passage if they have a problem in understanding the
meaning of the text.
5). Visualizing.Visualizing is a strategy that helps the students to improve their
understanding by using imaginations after reading. The students asked to
create a mental image from a text that have been read. Visualizing brings the
text to life, engages the imaginations and uses all of the sense. The teacher
may ask the students some questions for create a mental image from the text
such as “what are the pictures you have in your head as you read to this text?”
or “can you describe the picture or image you made after you read that part?”.
The students can make a connections between their imaginations and the text
they have been read.
13
6). Making outline of pov. Is a strategy of considering a story. In the first person
point of view (POV) the story is told as though the author is in it, the I is the
character who tell story, in the third person pov the story is told as it happens
to one of the character: she,he,it,or they.
7).Summarizing. Summarizing is a strategy that teaches the students to review
important ideas in the text they have read after reading. After reading a text,
students are able to recall important points and details from what they have
read. Knowledge of text and story structure will help students develop good
summaries. Model for students how to identify key ideas and how to put those
key ideas together to create a summary. When they summarize, the teacher
may ask them to think about “What are the important things and significant
details that the students have learned from the day’s reading assignment. The
students identify and accumulated the most important ideas and restate in their
own words.
b. Student Pairing
Once students have learn the seven strategies (making connections,
predicting, questioning, monitoring, visualizing, making outline of pov and
summarizing), they are ready to apply super seven comprehension strategies in
pairing cooperative learning. Some teachers find it easier to have students work in
pairs and that has also proven to be a successful practice. Procedures for using in
pairs are outlined below (Pressley.M, 2000)
1). Set the stage. First, the teacher assigns students in pairs. Then, the teacher
assigns roles to students.
14
2). Materials. super seven is design to be used in content area textbooks. It has
been successfully applied in narrative text. To teach the strategy, the teacher
may using text that interesting for the students and provides sufficient context
for vocabulary terms and comprehension. When selecting reading materials
for super seven comprehension strategies, the following factors are
recommended for consideration: (a) reading materials at students’
instructional level, which generally refers to the students being able to decode
about 80% of the words correctly, (b) reading materials having themes and
supporting details to make them easy to make a prediction about the text that
will be read, (c) reading materials consisting of several paragraphs so the
students can practice to determine the main idea of each paragraph, and (d)
reading materials may containing clues/pictures for predicting if any.
3). Process. The basic steps to apply super seven in pairing are as follows:
Step 1: Whole class introduction. The teacher introduces the topic, teaches key
vocabulary, and provides instructions.
Step 2: Students pairing activity during making connections, predicting,
questioning, monitoring, visualizing, making outline of pov and
summarizing. Each pair plays these activities.
Step 3: Whole class discusses the day’s reading passage, answer questions and
shares some review ideas.
c. Teacher’s Role in Students Pairing Activity
Teacher’s role is to circulate among the pairs and provide on going
assistance. Teacher can help by actively listening to the students’ conversations
15
and if necessary clarifying difficult words, modeling strategy usage, encouraging
students to participate, and modeling a helpful attitude. It is expected that students
will need assistance learning to work in pairing activity, implementing the
strategies, and mastering academic content (Klingner & Vaughn, 1999).
3. Comprehension Strategies
Comprehension strategies are conscious plans that are under the control
of a reader, who makes decisions about which strategies to use and when to use
them. Skilled readers construct meaning before, during, and after reading by using
a set of comprehension strategies to integrate information from a text with their
background knowledge (NRP, 2000).
Comprehension strategies are routines and procedures that active readers
use to better understand what they read. For example, active readers may think
about what they already know about a specific topic after they read the title of a
magazine article. They may predict what the article will be about. They may
visualize parts of the text. They may summarize the main points as they are
reading. They may ask questions as they read. They are aware of when the text is
making sense and when it is confusing or unclear. If they do not understand,
active and strategic readers know how to repair comprehension breakdowns. All
of these procedures are strategies active readers use to make sense of text (Dole,
2000).
Researchers have identified and examined an array of comprehension
strategies. (Palinscar, & Brown, 1984). Studies of good readers also identified a
16
number of comprehension strategies that were shown to be especially helpful and
to lend them selves particularly well to instruction.
Clearly, comprehension strategies are useful to teach and useful to learn.
Some evidence indicates that teaching a set of strategies is more effective than
teaching one on its own (NRP, 2000). However, using strategies help readers
become active and engaged in the reading process (Dole, 2000). As part of
comprehensive strategy use, skilled readers tend to monitor their understanding
continually. They are actively aware of whether they are understanding or
remembering what they have read. Specifically, they are able to clarify the
purpose for reading, identify the important information in a text, and engage in
self-questioning about the text. When skilled readers realize that they do not
understand what they are reading, they are able to apply strategies to “repair” or
“fix-up” their lack of understanding. The students in particular can benefit from
instruction that helps them learn when and how to use different strategies to
monitor comprehension and to repair comprehension problems.
The following seven reading comprehension strategies are taught through
super seven comprehension strategies: making connections, predicting,
questioning, monitoring, visualizing, making outline of pov and summarizing.
NRP in Dole (2000), says that the value of these different strategies is that they
can be useful for developing instructional procedures to teach students. With
instruction and practice, students can learn to use the strategies on their own when
they read. The use of these strategies will help readers become independent of the
teacher.

C. Concept of Reading
1. Definition of Reading
In United States of America, there are three basic definition of reading.
First, reading means learning to pronounce words. When we read something, we
will study about the words and how to pronounce it to make someone understand
about the reading. Second, reading is learning to identify words and get their
meaning. Of course we read something we want to know the meaning of the
reading. When we understand the meaning, it can make us easier to understand
what the reading purposes and understand what we are reading is a key and
certainly it is a point of teaching reading. Third, reading means learning to bring
meaning to a text in order to get a meaning from it. When we have studied about
the words and the meaning it, we must put the meaning of the words in a context
to make our understanding or comprehension be clear (Harris, 2000:787).
Brown in Asrul (2011:6), describes reading as the ability to draw
meaning from printed page and interpreted the information appropriately. In this
case, reading can be seen as an “interactive” process between a reader and a text
which leads to reading fluency. The reader interacts with the text as they tries to
elicit the meaning.
Nation of Readers (Anderson, Hiebert, Scott, & Wilkinson, 1985) stated,
“Reading is a process in which information from the text and the knowledge
possessed by the reader act together to produce meaning”.
Leipzig, (2001:352) explain that reading is a process involving word
recognition, comprehension, fluency, and motivation. Learn how readers integrate
18
these facets to make meaning from print. The readers change the symbols or
writing form into the meaning form. In the reading process, there are many
activities. Those are recognize the words, comprehend the content of the text,
what the readers read fluently or not and how to raise the motivation of the readers
to interest in reading the text.
Based on the description above, it is clear that reading is an active
process that involves eye speed to interact with the writer through the
written materials which requires the motivation and concentration for the
reader in order to catch some useful information from the writing or the
text that we read.
2. Kinds of Reading
There are three kinds of reading that is known as reading aloud,
silent reading, and speed-reading every term of which will be discussed
below:
a. Reading Aloud
Reading aloud is a kind of reading that is expressed orally every
word in the text. It aims to improve the student ability in pronouncing
the word and stressing the word. Teachers can evaluate how far their
students’ pronunciation through reading aloud. The student who
involved in reading aloud activity will get progress because they always
measure their own skill of pronunciation and stressing the words that
shown by the teacher in reading activity.
19
The objective of reading aloud is to have the learner read
slightly ahead silently for textual comprehension, then “speak” the text
with natural rhythm, intonation, and speed. Reading aloud can be
considered a natural developmental stage of reading that precedes the
stage of silent reading for comprehension. We occasionally need to read
aloud a letter; we may be called upon to read aloud announcements; we
like to read aloud quotes, news items, and sections of articles to friends
(Lado, 1988:183).
b. Silent Reading
Silent reading means that read by heart where there is no voice
is expressed, it is usually done to comprehend the text in reading
comprehension process. Reading silently needsa full attention to what
we are reading. In silent reading a reader tries to find out the main ideas
and supporting ideas during teaching reading process, teacher usually
takes control the class while the student are reading to give some help if
necessary or needed by the students to overcome the students problem
in developing reading skill.
c. Speed Reading
Speed reading is reading faster to get the ideas in answering
some specific question. Speed reading need speed eyes (eye speed) that
help to find out the ideas very quickly. If the eye speed is getting
trouble, it means that a reader will get trouble in speed reading. In doing
speed reading, teacher should evaluate the student about how far they
20
are and how quick they are finding out some certain ideas regarded to
the given questions his students’ competence in reading comprehension
(Smith, 1978:339).
3. Reading Techniques
According to Team of Five (2006), there are two types of reading
techniques that used to understanding the content of the literatures. The types are
mentioned above are as follows:
a. Scanning
Scanning is the ability to locate specific information that we know
what we are looking for. After we read the normal speed in reading we can
look the specific information, whether to find the main idea of writing or to
locate specific information in the text. When we read to find information, we
move our eyes very quickly across the text. We don’t read every word or stop
reading when we see a word we don’t understand. We look for the information
we want to find.
b. Skimming
Skimming is the ability to identify main ideas. After we read the
normal speed in reading we can look for the specific information, whether to
find the main idea of a text. The eyes run quickly, over the text to discover
what is about the main idea and the gist. This skimming occurs when the
reader’s looks quickly at the content page of a book, or at the chapter heading,
subheading, act. This is called previewing, when the reader glances quickly
trough a news paper to see what the items of the day are, this will often mean
21
just glancing at headlines. What the reader goes to trough a particular passage
such as a news paper article merely to get the gist.
D. Reading Comprehension
1. Definition of Reading Comprehension
Reading comprehensionis focus in understanding the meaning of the
text. The writer intentionally presents opinions of some authors or writer as
follows. Before dealing with the definition of reading comprehension, it is
necessary to define the words reading and comprehension. Hornby, (1974:711)
explain that reading is “the act of one who reads; knowledge, especially of books;
the ways in which something is interpreted”. While comprehension is “the act of
understanding, the ability of the mind to understand”.
Comprehension is the reason for reading. If the readers can read the
words, but not understand the meaning of what they are reading, they are not
really reading. Gifted readers, because they are capable of thinking with more
maturity and complexity, will make the step from fluency to comprehension very
quickly. It is important to provide instruction for comprehension, not only to help
readers understand and remember what they read (which may come easily), but
also to teach them how to communicate with others about what they read (which
may not come as easily) (Dole, 2000).
Now we come to the definition of reading comprehension. Reading
comprehension means understanding what have been read. Thus, reading
comprehension is the process of understanding or comprehending what has or
have been read.
22
Smith in Faramazzi, (2000:9) explain that reading comprehension is the
capability to understand the idea of one passage. Reading comprehension refers to
reading with comprehension. Thus, reading comprehension is reading by
comprehending the meaning of passage what is or has been read. People who read
something by understanding it can be said that he does reading comprehension.
Chastain, (1988:216) “Reading is a basic and complementary skill in
language learning” second language learners need to read and to read greater and
greater quantities of authentic materials for communication. It involves
comprehension and when readers do not comprehend, they are not reading. When
we comprehend what we read it is like taking a trip around the world, staying as
long as we like, visiting all the places we wish. Reading can be an escape that
takes us outside the bounds of our existence. Reading is our ticket to whatever we
choose to do and become. Reading is our future as well as our past. Don’t be a
reader who reads without thinking or who reads without a purpose.
The NRP (2002), defines reading comprehensionas the process of
simultaneously extracting and constructing meaning. Translating print to sounds
and words while simultaneously making meaning is a highly complex act that is
often over whelming for a struggling reader.
Reading comprehension is the act of constructing meaning from text.
Reading comprehension requires an interaction between the text and the reader’s
knowledge. Reading comprehension is hindered greatly by students’ lack of
background knowledge and by their inability to use comprehension strategies to
integrate information from the text with their background knowledge.
23
The goal of reading is to comprehendor understand what we read. Simply
decoding or reading the words isn’t enough if the reader cannot make sense of the
text.Getting a complete understanding of what we are reading is important and by
practising reading comprehension techniques it make readers easier to understand
the meaning of the text. Not only will be improve our understanding of the
content, but we will be better able to utilize in reading critically (Khaeratisyam,
2008).
2. Reading Comprehension Levels
According to Smith in Ashar (2007:22), there are four categories of
comprehension levels:
a. Literal Comprehension
Literal comprehension refers to the main idea, details and sequence.
The literal level of comprehension is fundamental to all reading skill at any
levels because a reader must understand what the writers said before draw
inference or make an evaluation. In other word, this category requires a lower
level thinking skill than the others.
According to Quinn & Applegate in Ashar (2007:22), Literal
comprehension requires that students recall what they have read from the text.
Students use the skill of locating information from the text to answer literal
comprehension questions, as well as their own rote memory skills. Literal
recall students’ opportunities to discuss ideas related to the text. Literal
reading strategies include (a) word recognition, (b) vocabulary meaning, (c)
24
finding important information in text, and (d) identification of setting,
characters, problems, key events, and outcomes as presented in the text.
b. Interpretive Comprehension
Interpretive reading is based on a literal understanding in the text,
students must use information from various part of the text and combine them
for additional understanding. The students have to put together two piece of
information that is from different part of the text.
Interpretive reading comprehension includes thinking skills in which
reader identify ideas and meaning that are not stated explicit in the text. So,
the reader may make generalization, drawing conclusion, predicting outcomes,
determine cause and effect relationship, identify motivation and make
comparison. In other words, interpretative reading requires the reader to
understand not only what the author means. At this level teachers can ask
more challenging question such asking students to the following:
1) Re-arrange the ideas or topics discussed in the text
2) Explain the authors’ purpose of writing
3) Summarize the main idea when this not explicitly stated on the text
4) Select conclusion which can be deduced from the text they have read.
c. Critical Reading
Critical reading is reading with an awareness of similarities and
differences between what the reader has already seen and what he is seeing in
25
the work is reading critically. Critical such as expression, overstatement, ides,
opinions repetition and values of an author.
d. Creative Reading
Creative reading is reading with awareness of the stimuli of
imaginative through present in reading materials. The stimulated may be in the
form of problems sensed of new idea or ways of expressions. Creative reading
requires the readers to use their imaginations, it requires readers feeling for the
text and subject. The answer is not found in the text, they come strictly from
the readers while no personal responses are incorrect. They cannot be
unfounded, they must relate to the content of the text and reflect a literal
understand of the material.

CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
A. Background
Language plays an important role in human life, people tries to acquire,
learn and use language as a tool of communication and simultaneously as social
symbol of humanity. A language is considered to be a system of communicating
with other people using sounds, symbols and words in expressing, ideas or
thought (Widdowson, 1978). As Ba’dulu (2009) describes that language can have
an informational function in which language is used to convey information to
other persons. This language can be used in many forms through oral and written
communications as well as using expressions through body language. People need
language as a system of communicating to interact to other people and keep social
relation among the language user. These indicate that by means of language,
people can express their ideas and get information through communication.
Language learning is important for human’s social development. As a
language which is used by more than a half of population in the world, English is
considered and applied as international language. Since then, it is very popular
and has been spoken and learnt by almost people in the world. English is a tool of
communication among peoples of the world to get trade, social-cultural, science,
and technology goals.

The conceptual framework above explains the process of teaching
English reading in improving the students’ reading skill in terms of reading
comprehension dealing with the literal and interpretive comprehension through
super seven comprehension Strategies. In this method includes some strategies
that help the students to activate the students’ prior knowledge, to generate
interest and identify main ideas by collaborative learning in pairing
activity. So, the students can increase their reading comprehension ability
particularly in identifying main ideas, details of text, and how the students
make conclusion and prediction of outcomes from the text through super
seven comprehension strategies.

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHOD
A. Research Design
This research used a classroom action research (C.A.R). The research
was conducted in SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar in June 2014-2015
academic year in two cycles, and it has been continued in the cycle 3 if the result
of cycle 2 is not significant. It aimed at observing The Use of Super Seven
Comprehension Strategies in Improving the Students’ Reading Comprehension.
In this classroom action research (C.A.R), the reseacher used the C.A.R
principle in two cycles to collected the data, in which each cycle are covered with
four stages of activities, namely: (1) the planning, (2) the observation, (3) action
and (4) the reflection. In the following parts, each passage of the activities explain
in details respectively. The details of the research procedures are as follows:
Cycle I
Cycle I refers to the teaching and learning process and it is conducted four
meetings in one cycle, and each meeting is recognized as four steps namely
planning, action, observation and reflection as follows:
1. Planning
In this phase, the teacher made:
a. The lesson plan before doing classroom action reseach, the teacher prepared
set up equipment such as, lesson plan and observation sheet.
b. Instrument evaluation that used in classroom action research cycle.
29
2. Action
a. The teacher entered the class and introduced the material to the students
b. The teacher began by described the process of Super Seven Comprehension
Strategy on gave overview of each of the strategies.
c. The teacher asked the students to choosen their couple.
d. The teacher introduced the topic, taught the key vocabulary, and gave
instructions to the whole class.
e. The students apply the Super Seven Comprehension Strategies in students
pairing activity during making connections, predicting, questioning,
monitoring, visualizing, making outline of pov and summarizing with their
couples.
1. Before reading, the students applied to making connections and
predicting strategies. They made connections between their prior
knowledge to the topic and what they have learned.
2. During reading, the students applied questioning and monitoring
strategies. They looked for the main idea of the text by using generating
and answering questions and then to monitor their understanding about
the passage.
3. After reading, the students applied visualizing and summarizing
strategies. They imagined what they have read in their mind and wrote
some important ideas about the text.
f. Teacher and students discussed about the day’s reading passage. Answered
questions and shared some review ideas.
30
3. Observation
In this phase, the teacher have observed:
a. Students’ participation and response during teaching and learning process.
b. Students’ competence in reading a text.
4. Reflection
After collected the data, the teacher evaluated the teaching-learning
process. Then, do reflection by saw the result of the observation, whether the
teaching learning process of increasing reading comprehension through Super
Seven Comprehension Strategies reach success criteria based on the test result
of the first action.
Cycle II
It was like cycle I, cycle II also consisted of planning, action, observation
and reflection as follows:
1. Planning
In this phase, the teacher have made:
a. Continued the activities in the first cycle.
b. Repaired the weakness in the first cycle.
c. Designed planning again from the result of cycle I reflection.
d. Action research repair.
2. Action
a. The teacher applied super Seven Comprehension Strategies.
b. The teacher divided the students into pairs.
31
c. The teacher introduced the topic, taught the key vocabulary, and gave
instructions to the whole class.
d. The students did the making connections and predicting strategies before
reading, each pairs have discussed about their background knowledge about
the topic and what they have learned about the topic.
e. The students did the questioning and monitoring strategies during reading,
each pairs discussed about the main point of the text by using questions and
their understanding about the text.
f. The students did the visualizing, made outline of pov and summarizing
strategies after reading, students imagined in their mind about the topic and
wrote some important ideas about the text.
g. Teacher and students discussed the day’s reading passage. Answered the
questions and shared some review ideas.
3. Observation
In this phase, the teacher observed:
a. Students’ participation and response during teaching and learning process.
b. Students’ competence in reading a text.
4. Reflection
After collected the data, the teacher evaluated the teaching-learning
process. Then, did reflection by seeing the result of the observation, whether
the teaching learning process of reading comprehension using Super Seven
Comprehension Strategies has reached success criteria based on the test result
of the second action. Then the researcher made conclusion of the applying

grade students of class XII SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar in 2014-2015
academic years.
33
D. Research Instrument
There were two instruments that used in teaching and learning process:
1. Observation sheet.
It used to find out the students’ data about their activeness in teaching learning
process.
2. Test
Test used to get information about the students’ improvement after teaching
and learning process.
E. The Procedure of Collecting Data
In collecting the data, the researcher used two instruments. The type of
collecting data consist of quantitative and qualitative data in which the instrument
use test and observation. The way to took data as follows:
1. Observation, the observer observed the students’ activeness and presence in the
teaching and learning process by using observation sheet that will be checklist
by the observer based on their activeness.
2. Test, the researcher gaive essay test to the students in other to know their prior
ability and their improvement after taking actions in cycles, each test consist
of 5-10 questions based on reading test material.
F. Techniques for Data Analysis
In analyzing the data, the researcher used some techniques of data
analysis were as follows:
1. Test

CHAPTER IV
FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION
This chapter consists of the findings of the research and its discussion. The
findings of the research present the increase of the students‟ reading
comprehension in terms of literal and interpretive comprehension and the
discussion of the research covers further explanation of the finding.
A. Findings
The findings of this research shows that Super Seven Comprehension
Strategies at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuan 1 Makassar
increased the students reading comprehension in terms of literal comprehension
dealing with main ideas and detail information and interpretive comprehension
dealing with drawing conclusion, as follows:
1. Literal Reading Comprehension
a. The Increase of the Students’ Literal Comprehension
The increase of the students „ literal comprehension at the tenth grade
students of SMA Kartika Wirbuana 1 Makassar through Super Seven
Comprehension Strategies. The result of diagnostic test indicated that the mean
score of the students‟ literal reading comprehension was still low. The researcher
then began to teach in the cycle I through Super Seven Comprehension Strategies.
In each meeting, the researcher gave each students a text then did some activities
based on the procedure of Super Seven Comprehension Strategies. In the
activities, the researcher gave some questions to build up the students‟ prior
37
38
knowledge before they read the text and explained about how to identify the main
idea in the text and know the detail information in text. The researcher asked the
students to do excercises about identify the main idea and detail information.
After did teaching and learning process for some meeting, the researcher then
gave tested to the students. The result of this test indicated that the mean score of
students in terms of main idea and detail informaton in reading comprehension
was still out of target. So, the researcher continued the action to the cycle II. And
the result of the cycle II there was significant improvement.
The increase of the students‟ literal reading comprehension in terms of
main idea and detail information through Super Seven comprehension strategies
can be seen clearly based on the following table:
Table 4.1: The Students’ Increase in Literal Comprehension
N

5.45 6.45 7.05 18.28 29.35 9.77
The table above shows that the significant increase of the students literal
reading comprehension dealing with main idea and detail information through
Super Seven comprehension strategies. The students‟ mean score in diagnostic
test (D-test) before applied those strategies was 5.4 classified into poor. But after
applied those strategies in cycle I, the assessment of their literal comprehension
39
increased became 6.0 classified into fair. It was greater than mean score of
diagnostic test but it‟s not significant from the target expected based on criteria of
minimum completeness (KKM) was 7.0. So, the researcher decided to organize
cycle II, the mean score of cycle II was 7.0 and classified into fairly good. The
result of cycle II was well enough from the target expected. And than the increase
of the students‟ literal comprehension was D-test to cycle II was greater than D-
test to cycle I in which D-test to cycle I was 18.28 %and D-test to cycle II was
29.35 %. To see the significant increase of the students‟ literal reading
comprehension clearly It indicates that there was significant increase for the
students‟ literal reading comprehension dealing with main idea and detail
information in applying Super Seven Comprehension Strategies at the tenth grade
students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makasar.
b. The Classification of the Students’ Score in Literal Comprehension
The classification of the students‟ score in literal reading comprehension
through Super Seven comprehension strategies in diagnostic-test, cycle I and
cycle II was shown in the table as follows:

7. Very Poor 0.0 – 3.5 0 0 % 0 0 % 0 0%
Total 16 100 % 16 100 % 16 100 %
The table above shows the classification of the students‟ score in literal
comprehension. The classification of the students‟ score in diagnostic test was six
(37.5 %) students got fair score, ten (62.5 %) students got poor score and none
students got excellent, very good, good, fairly good and very poor. In cycle I, six
(37.5 %) students got fairly good score, ten (62.5 %) students got fair and none
students got excellent, very good, good, poor and very poor score. In cycle II, two
(12.5 %) students got good score, fourteen (87.5 %) students got fairly good score
and none students got excellent, very good, fair, poor and very poor score. From
the result, it can be concluded that the students literal comprehension achievement
from D-test to cycle II ranges “poor” to “good” score, classification score in literal
comprehension from the ranges very poor to excellent was the students score in
diagnostic test were poor to fair and most of the students got poor score. In cycle I
41
the students ranges score was fair to fairly good, there was the increase of the
students score from D-test to cycle I. In cycle II, most of the students got fairly
good score from the ranges score was fairly good to good score. It was better than
cycle I and D-test because none students got fair, poor and very poor in this cycle.
Based on the classification score above indicates that there was the increase of the
students score in literal comprehension.
2. Interpretive Reading Comprehension
a. The Increase of the Students’ Interpretive Comprehension
The increase of the students‟ interpretive comprehension at the tenth grade
students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar through Super Seven
comprehension strategies was raising. There was significant increase from
diagnostic test to cycle I, it‟s also like cycle I to cycle II. Its increase can be seen
clearly based on the following table:

Based on the table above, we can see the significant increase of the
students‟ interpretive comprehension dealing with drawing conclusion through
Super Seven comprehension strategies in which at the students‟ diagnostic test
(D-Test), the mean score was 4.9 classified into poor and at the students‟ test of
42
cycle I, the mean score was 5.9 classified into fair. It was greater than the mean
score of diagnostic test but it‟s not significant from the target expected i.e. 7.0
while at the students‟ test of cycle II, the significant mean score was acquired
namely 7.0 and it‟s classified into fairly good. Interpretive reading comprehension
from diagnostic test to cycle I was 20.40 %, the increase of the students‟
interpretive comprehension from diagnostic test to cycle II was 42.85 % and the
increase of the students‟ interpretive comprehension from cycle I to cycle II was
18.64 %. It indicates that there was significant increase for the students‟
interpretive reading comprehension dealing with drawing conclusion in applying
Super Seven Comprehension Strategies at the tenth grade students of SMA
Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.

b. The Classification of the Students’ Score in Interpretive Comprehension
The classification of the students‟ score in interpretive reading
comprehension through Super Seven comprehension strategies in diagnostic-test,
cycle I and cycle II was shown in the table as follows:

7. Very Poor 0.0 – 3.5 0 0 % 0 0 % 0 0%
Total 16 100 % 16 100 % 16 100 %
The table above shows the classification of the students‟ score in
interpretive comprehension through Super Seven comprehension strategies. The
classification of the students‟ score in diagnostic test was sixteen (100 %) students
got poor score or all of students got poor score and none students got excellent,
very good, good, fairly good, fair and very poor. In cycle I, seven (43.75 %)
students got poor score, eight (50 %) students got fair, one (6.25 %) students got
fairly good and none students got excellent, very good, good, poor and very poor
44
score. In cycle II, five (31.25 %) students got fair score, nine (56.25 %) students
got fairly good score, two (12.5 %) students got good score and none students got
excellent, very good, poor and very poor score. From the result, it can be
concluded that the students classification score in interpretive comprehension
achievement from D-test to cycle II ranges “poor” to “good” score. In the table
above too shows that the percentage of the students‟ classification score in
interpretive comprehension from the ranges very poor to excellent was increased.
The students score in diagnostic test was 100 % students got poor score, It means
that all of students got poor score in diagnostic test. In cycle I, the students ranges
score were poor to fairly good score, most of the students got fair score and none
students got excellent, very good, good and very poor. In cycle II, most of the
students got fairly good score from the ranges score was fairly good to good
score and none students got excellent, very good, fair, poor and very poor score.
Based on the classification score above indicates that there was the increase of the
students score in interpretive comprehension.
2. The Students’ Reading Comprehension
a. The Increase of the Students’ Reading Comprehension
Based on the result from table 4.1 and table 4.3 indicates that the ability of
the students in reading comprehension in terms of literal comprehension and
interpretive comprehension was increased.
The increase of the students‟ reading comprehension at the tenth grade
students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar through Super Seven
45
comprehension strategies as a result of table 4.1 and table 4.3, will explain in a

The table above shows that the students‟ reading comprehension in terms
of literal and interpretive comprehension before implematation the strategies
indicates that diagnostic test assessment was 5.17 classified into poor, but after
implematation of cycle I the assessment of their reading comprehesion increase in
each result of cycle I, namely 6.17 it was greater than diagnostic test (D-test). It
means that there was an increase of the students‟ reading comprehension, but it
was clasified into fair. So, the researcher decided to orginize cycle II. The
assessment of cycle II was greater than cycle I while the result of cycle II was 7.0
it was classified into fairly good. The increase from D-test to cycle II was greater
than the increase from D-test to cycle I where 36.1 % > 19.37 %. Based on the
table and explanation above indicates that there were significant increase of the
students‟ reading comprehension through Super Seven comprehension strategies.
It indicates that there was significant increase for the students‟ reading
46
comprehension in applying Super Seven Comprehension Strategies at the twelve
grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.
b. The Classification of the Students’ Score in Reading Comprehension
The classification of the students‟ score in reading comprehension through
Super Seven comprehension strategies in was shown in the table as follows:

Table above shows the classification of the students‟ score in reading
comprehension consists of D-test, cycle I and cycle II. The classification score of
the students‟ D-test were none of the students got excellent, very good, good and
fairly good score category, three (18.75 %) students got fair score and 13 (81.25
%) students got poor score and none students got very poor score. From the result,
it can be concluded that the students reading achievement on D-test ranges “poor”
to “fair” and dominant of the students got poor score.
The rate percentage of the cycle I was presented as follows: there were
none of the students got excellent, very good score and good, six (37,5 %)
students got fairly good score, ten (62,5 %) students got fair score and there were
none students got poor and very poor score. It can concluded that the students‟
achievement on cycle I ranges “fair” to “fairly good” and from the table dominant
students got fair and fairly good score.
The classification score of the students in cycle II were none students got
excellent and very good score, two (12.5 %) students got good score, 14 (87.5 %)
students got fairly good score and none students got fair, poor and very poor
score. So, it can be concluded that the students reading achievement on cycle II
ranges “fairly good” to “good” score and dominant of the students got fairly good
score.
Based on result of the students‟ classification score above shows that the
students‟ classification score from D-test, cycle I and cycle II ranges “poor” to
“good” score and it was also increased. The above too shows the students‟ score
classification or precentage clearly of the students achievement before and after
48
given treatments in apllying Super Seven comprehension strategies that consists
of D-test, cycle I and cycle II while in teaching and learning reading
comprehension process as a result of the students test. The table shows the
percentage of the students‟ classification score, from the ranges very poor to
excellent. The students score in diagnostic test were poor to fair score and most of
the students got poor score. In cycle I, the students ranges score were fair to fairly
good score, most of the students got fair score and none students got excellent,
very good, good, poor and very poor. In cycle II, most of the students got fairly
good score from the ranges score was fairly good to good score and none students
got excellent, very good, fair, poor and very poor score. So, its result shows that
students‟ classification score from D-test, cycle I and cycle II ranges poor to good
score and it was also increased.
2. The Result of the Students’ Participation Based on the Observation
This table shows the students‟ increase of activate and presence based on
the observation result in learning process of cycle I and cycle II after applied
Super Seven comprehension strategies as follows:

Based on the table above, the students‟ participation was increased. It
shows that the process of the students‟ activity in teaching and leraning process in
each meeting of applying Super Seven comprehension strategies. The percentages
of the cycle I from the firts meeting to the fourth meeting were 54%, 48%, 51%
and 53%. Moreover, the percentages of the cycle II from the firts meeting to the
fourth meeting were 54%, 59%, 60% and 67%. In addition, the mean score in
every cycle, while cycle I was 49.25% and in cycle II was 60%. So, the result of
percentage of cycle I to cycle II was increased. Its increase was 10.47. The table
above too shows the students‟ participation as a result of observation in learning
reading comprehension through Super Seven comprehension strategies at the
tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar. The table above
presented the students‟ situation during teaching and learning process dealing with
the students‟ activeness and presence in teaching and learning reading
comprehension from cycle I to the cycle II while each cycle consist of fourth
meetings. Based on the chart above, there was changing of the students‟
participation in learning reading comprehension from the first meeting until the
eight meeting in cycle I to cycle II. It was indicated that there was the increase of
the students‟ participation during teaching and learning reading comprehension
process through Super Seven comprehension strategies at the tenth grade students
of SMA Kartika Wirabuna 1 Makassar.

B. Discussions
Based on the procedure of data analysis in the findings shows that the
application of the model of learning reading comprehension through Super Seven
comprehension strategies was significant increased the students reading
comprehension at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1
Makassar. It increased the students‟ achievement and their ability to understand
the materials of reading comprehension in cycle I and cycle II. It can be proved by
the result of findings about the students‟ literal reading comprehension dealing
with main ideas and detail information, interpretive reading comprehension
dealing with drawing conclusion and the result of the observation of the students‟
activeness, participation and presence in teaching and learning process.
1. The Improvement of the Students’ Reading Comprehension
During the teaching and learning process in cycle I, the researcher
found that the students were difficult to identify main ideas and drawing
conclusion. As Smith in Ashar (2007:22) stated that literal comprehension refers
to the main idea, details and sequence. The literal level of comprehension is
fundamental to all reading skill at any levels because a reader must understand
what the writers said before draw inference or make an evaluation. In other word,
this category requires a lower level thinking skill than the others.
To solve this problem the researcher had done cycle II and revised the
previous lesson plan. The researcher devided into some pairs so the students can
did their excercise together. They worked together to solve the problem. The
researcher also gave deep explanation about the way to determine the main ideas
51
and understand the content of the text that concluded in literal comprehension and
drawing conclusion in interpretive comprehension of the narrative text so the
students can understand well.
In the analysis of the students‟ achievement, the researcher found that the
mean score of students in reading comprehension in terms of literal and
interpretive comprehension through Super Seven comprehension strategies was
increased. The students‟ means score in D-test was 5.17 (poor), in the cycle I the
students‟ mean score was 6.17 (fair) and in the cycle II the students‟ mean score
was 7.0 (fairly good). The increase of the students‟ achievement from mean score
of D-test to cycle I was 19.37 %, whereas the increase of students‟ achievement
from mean score of D-test to cycle II was 36.1 %.
The students‟ mean score in teaching literal reading comprehension in D-
test was 5.45 (poor), cycle I was 6.45 (fair) and cycle II was 7.05 (fairly good).
The increase of the students‟ score from D-test to cycle I was 18.28 % and D-test
to cycle II was 29.35 %. The students‟ mean score in teaching interpretive reading
comprehension in D-test was 4.9 (poor), cycle I was 5.9 (fair) and cycle II was
7.0 (fairly good). The increase of the students‟ score from D-test to cycle I was
20.40 % and D-test to cycle II was 42.85 %.
The classification of the students‟ score in learning reading comprehension
through Super Seven comprehension strategies was increased. The students‟
classification score in D-test from 100 % in 16 students was 18.75 % students got
fair score, 81.25 % students got poor and none students got excellent, very good,
good, fairly good and very poor score. In cycle I was 37.5 % students got fairly
52
good, 62.5 % students got fair and none students got excellent, very good, good,
poor and very poor score. The classification score in cycle II was 12.5 % students
got good, 87.5 % students got fairly good score and none students got excellent,
very good, fair, poor and very poor score.
From the explanation above the researcher analyzed that through Super
Seven comprehension strategies in narrative reading text can increase the
students‟ reading comprehension in learning reading to identify main ideas, detail
information and drawing conclusion, where the students‟ mean score in cycle I
and cycle II was higher than D-test based on the table in the findings.
2. The Increase of the Students’ Participation in Learning Reading
Comprehension
Based on result of observation, the students‟ participation in learning
reading comprehension process through Super Seven comprehension strategies
was increased. The mean score of the students‟ participation in the firts meeting
untill the fourth meeting in cycle I was 49.25 % and the students‟ mean score in
cycle II was 60 %. There was the increase of participation of the students from the
first meeting in cycle I untill the fourt meeting in cycle II. The increase of the
students‟ participation score from cycle I to cycle II was 10.75 %. It indicates that
the application of Super Seven comprehension strategies can stimulate the
students‟ activeness and presence in teaching and learning process, particularly in
teaching and learning reading comprehension.
53
CHAPTER V
CONCLUSION AND SUGGESTION
A. Conclusions
Based on the findings and discussion in the previous chapter it can be
concluded that the model of learning reading comprehension through Super Seven
comprehension strategies was significantly increased the students‟ reading
comprehension at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1
Makassar. This was shown by the following result:
1. Super Seven comprehension strategies increase the students‟ literal reading
comprehension dealing with identifying main ideas and detail information.
The data in the findings indicated that the students‟ means score in cycle I
was 6.45 and cycle II was 7.05, the increase of the students‟ literal
comprehension from cycle I to cycle II was 9.77 %. So, these trategies had
succeeded to increase the students‟ achievement in learning reading
comprehension in terms of literal comprehension at the tenth grade students
of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.
2. Super Seven comprehension strategies increase the students‟ interpretive
reading comprehension dealing with drawing conclusion. The data in the
findings indicated that the students‟ means score in cycle I was 5.9 and cycle
II was 7.0, the increase of the students‟ literal comprehension from cycle I to
cycle II was 18.64 %. So, these trategies had succeeded to increase the
students‟ achievement in learning reading comprehension in terms of
56
54
interpretive reading comprehension at the tenth grade students of SMA
Kartika Wirabuana 1 Makassar.
3. Super Seven comprehension strategies was effective to make the students
active in reading at class. This shown by the result of percentage of the
students‟ participation in the first meeting of cycle I was 45 % and it was
increased became 67 % in the last meeting of cycle II.
Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that there was a
significant difference before and after the students given the treatment in cycle I
and cycle II in teaching and learning reading comprehension through Super Seven
comprehension strategies at the tenth grade students of SMA Kartika Wirabuana 1
Makassar.
B. Suggestions
In relation to the conclusion above, the researcher further states
suggestions as follows:
1. There are so many strategies, models or approaches in teaching English
especially in reading that was developed by the expert. Therefore, the teacher
should leave the conventional strategies in teaching. As the researcher saw
when applying Super Seven comprehension strategies, the students enjoyed to
work in collaborative. They did not feel boredom because this strategies
allowed other strategies work together.
2. The teacher is not the source of knowledge, one of their functions is as the
facilitator for their students to guide or give them instructions to get the
knowledge. Therefore, the teacher should give the students many
55
opportunities to find the knowledge from the text they have been read or
learnt through teaching them the strategies.
3. For further researchers, it is suggested to conduct further research of Super
Seven comprehenson strategies that applied seven strategies in control pair to
find out the effectiveness of this model.

The Smartest Parrot
Once upon a time, a man had a wonderful parrot. There was no other
parrot like it. The parrot could say every word, except one word. The parrot would
not say the name of the place where it was born. The name of the place was
Catano.
The man felt excited having the smartest parrot but he could not
understand why the parrot could not say Catano. The man tried to teach the bird to
say Catano however the bird kept not saying the word.
At the first, the man was very nice to the bird but then he got very angry.
“You stupid bird!” pointed the man to the parrot. “Why can‟t you say the word?
Say Catano! Or I will kill you” the man said angrily. Although he tried hard to
teach, the parrot would not say it. Then the man got so angry and shouted to the
bird over and over; “Say Catano or I‟ll kill you”. The bird kept not say the word
of Catano.
One day, after he had been trying so many times to make the bird say
Catano, the man really got very angry. He could not bear it. He picked the parrot
and threw it into the chicken house. There were four old chickens for next dinner
“You are as stupid as the chickens. Just stay with them”. Said the man angrily.
Then he continued to humble; “You know, I will cut the chicken for my meal.
Next, it will be your turn, I will eat you too, stupid parrot”. After that he left the
chicken house.
The next day, the man came back to the chicken house. He opened the
door and was very surprised. He could not believe what he saw at the chicken
house. There were three death chickens on the floor. At the moment, the parrot

CINDERELLA
Once upon a time, there was a young girl named Cinderella. She lived
with her step mother and to step sisters. The step mother and sisters were
conceited and bad tempered. They treated Cinderella very badly. Her step
mother made Cinderella do the hardest works in the house; such as scrubbing
the floor, cleaning the pot and pan, and preparing the food for the family. The
two step sisters, on the other hand, did not work about the house. Their mother
gave them many beautiful dresses to wear.
One day, the two step sisters received an invitation to the ball that the
king‟s son was going to give at the palace. They were excited about this and
spent so much time choosing the dresses they would wear. At last, the day of
the ball came, and away went the sisters to it. Cinderella could not help crying
after they had left.
“Why are you crying, Cinderella?” A voice asked. She looked up and
saw her fairy godmother standing beside her, “because I want so much to go to
the ball” said Cinderella. “Well” said the godmother, “you have been such a
cheerful, hardworking, uncomplaining girl that I am going to see that you do
go to the ball”.
Magically, the fairy godmother changed a pumpkin into a fine coach and
mice into a coachman and two footmen. Her godmother tapped Cinderella‟s
raged dress with her wand, and it became a beautiful ball gown. Then she gave
her a pair of pretty glass slippers. “Now, Cinderella”, she said; “You must
leave before midnight”. Then away she drove in her beautiful coach.
Cinderella was having a wonderfully good time. She danced again and
again with the Prince. Suddenly the clock began to strike twelve, she ran
toward the door as quickly as she could. In her hurry, one of her glass slipper
was left behind
A few days later, the Prince on proclaimed that he would marry the girl
whose feet fitted the glass slipper. Her step sisters tried o the slipper but it was
too small for them, no matter how hard they squeezed their toes into it. In the
end, the king‟s page let Cinderella try on the slipper. She stuck out her foot
and the page slipped the slipper on. It fitted perfectly.

The Broken Egg
“I have no eggs for breakfast, Mr. Brown,” said Mrs. Brown to her
husband early one morning, “so if you want your egg today, you‟ll have to
go over to our neighbour and ask for two eggs, one for you and one for
me.”
“Yes my dear,” said Mr. Brown and he went next door and got two
eggs. Since it had been raining, the path was wet. On his way back to his
house, he slipped and fell, breaking one of the two eggs.
When he got home, he said to his wife, “I had an accident. I‟m
sorry my dear, but I broke your egg!”

THE BLIND MAN AND THE SUN
Once upon a time, there lived a blind man who had never seen the sun. He
asked a friend to tell him what it was like.
“It‟s like a brass plate”, his friend said. The blind man struck a brass plate
with a stick and listened to the sound. Every time he heard a similar sound, he
thought it was the sun.
His friend explained that “the sun is like a candle‟. The blind man felt a
candle with his hand. He believed it was the same shape as the sun.
Then his friend told him that the sun is like a great ball of fire. Later that
winter, whenever the blind man sat in front of a fire, he thought it was the sun.
The sun is really quite different from all these things; but the blind man did
not know this because he could not see it.
In the same way, the Truth is often hard to see. If you cannot see it when it
is right in front of you, then you are just like the blind man.
Answer these Questions below:
1. What did the blind man‟s friend compare the sun to?
2. Which one of these things do you think is most similar to the sun?
3. What would you compare the sun to? Why?
4. Why is the truth like the sun?
5. Write down the main idea of each paragraph!

SNOW WHITE
Once upon a time there lived a little girl named Snow White. She
lived with her aunt and uncle because her parents were dead.
One day she heard her uncle and aunt talking about leaving Snow
White in the castle because they both wanted to go to America and they
didn‟t have enough money to take Snow White.
Snow White did not want her uncle and aunt to do this so she
decided it would be best if she ran away. The next morning she ran away
from home when her aunt and uncle were having breakfast. She ran away
into the woods.
She was very tired and hungry.
Then she saw this little cottage. She knocked but no one answered
so she went inside and fell asleep.
Meanwhile, the seven dwarfs were coming home from work. They
went inside. There they found Snow White slipping. Then Snow White
woke up. She saw the dwarfs. The dwarfs said, what is your name? Snow
White said, „My name is Snow White‟.
Doc said, „if you wish, you may live here with as”. Snow White
said, „oh could? Thank you‟. Then Snow White told the dwarfs the whole
story. She and the 7 dwarfs lived happily ever after.

A CLEVER PRISONER
A potato farmer was sent to prison just at the time when he should
have been digging the ground for planting the new crop of potatoes. He knew
that his wife was not strong enough to do the digging, although she could
