CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A. BackgroundThe language teaching deals with the four skills of language namely, speaking,
reading, writing, and listening. The priority of teaching English in school is reading
because it can cover the three other skills. Reading skills involves the three other
skills: listening, speaking, and writing.
Based on Curriculum mount set of education one of aims study language
English in junior high school is improving communicative skill in English language
during the type oral although writing. Communication skill is cover speaking,
reading, writing, and listening. The four competences are hope the able draw up and
supply the student of junior high school for continue stage level education.
The use of curriculum adult the orientation at competence, that mean the
student demand own certain competence or proficiency as the result process study in
the school. Competence always calls curriculum mount set of education. Competence
is general skill dominate, because graduated or level education. However during
action process study language English in SMP Negeri 2 Bulukumpa, especially eighth
A, the teacher always discovers difficulties experience achieves to the situation based
competence. This case, the causes during answer the question, the student not able
answer the question with right.

One of cause, less right during answer the question, because less questioning
technique to give from the teacher and focus study at the teacher with the result that
interaction active accompany students with the teacher or the student with the student
seldom occur, beside that, study process have the quality monotonous, use still
method conventional, the teacher deliver material only speech, give example question
and the next carry out question.
According to the information, the researcher has gotten the real fact of the
situation in learning at SMP Negeri 2 bulukumpa. The researcher has gotten
information from the English teacher, colleagues at the eighth A class in SMP Negeri
2 Bulukumpa. Which in fact, eighth A class keep a big potency but is not sharpened
better. Student ability seen less is proportional where there are student which so
predominate the class other student tend to passive.
Based on the result interview that also obtained by that like most school of
generally smp negeri 2 bulukumpa also experience of the some thing that result learn
the English student still be pertained to lower. This matter is visible from average
value of mid test only reach 35% or 50% from ideal score. this average value is
complete to in comparison from from ideal score this with learn according to
curriculum going into effect in smp negeri 2 bulukumpa namely egual to 65 or 90%
can be said that by a value reside in complete bellow the mark explanation.
By looking at this fact, the English teachers are expected to always and make
some effort to help the students to improve their reading comprehension, teachers

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
A. Questioning TechniqueThe definition of the question are made based on the points of view , as
Both rothkop in J.Estill Alexander (1979:150) concluded that questioning
techinique play important part in comprehension and learning. The legth of
passage read and the amount of time that leps between reading and answering
question appear to be significant factors to consider in using questioning
tecnique.
Questioning technique can set the prurpose for reading. Some time to
read for the student read relax, to find out, to be inspired to experiense
adventure vicariously, for intrique, for romance, and for excitement. In fact
for every reason imaginable, approaching a reading task, a student need to
have identifinable and direct reason for reading .
According to Allen and Unwin in Gerry Abboth (1981: 157) say that
questioning techinique is focus attention on the specific propose that are
appropriete to the reading situation. From definiton above reading to answer
the question seeking a detail as ( the color of animal in the story) can be
accomplihed by the skimming.
Sometimes questioning technique can be used a means of direction. The
student reading to something the migth pay otherwise miss or to which the
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
6/31

migth pay insufficient attention. Questioning technique may be use in this
way ,for example when several stories one type are read. The teacher may use
questioning technique to get help the students to compare setting, main
character development, plot authors style, vocobulary or other features
amoung starategies withing a singel story a teacher may want to use focusing
questioning technique to call attention to the importance of the detail in
developing the total impression the story makes.
Thomas N Turner in J. Estill Alexander ( 1979: 149 ) states Questioning
technique are principle tool. The teacher uses to discover the degree to which
children have understood what they for guiding growth in comprehension.
The ability to ask question and to teach children to ask themselves
questions. It contribuses not only to the total development of reader but also to
the childs success in all areas of the school curriculum and life it. Question
can be a focusing and refining device for expanding vocabulary and for
developing all levels of comprehension, including critical and creative
reading. Questioning technique helps to direction of inquiry and to identify
problems.
From the definition above, the Questioning technique of children must
be developed if the teacher questioning carry over into independent reading.
cunningham( 1971 : 83) say that points out that the question techique is
a verbal utterance that seeks a response from the person to whom it is
directed. Cunningham (1971 :84) say that asking the question tecnique is one
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
7/31

of the ways by the teacher, in other the students can improve their reading
comprehension. Nornby (1980 : 1187) say that a question technique is a form
of expressing in speech or writing that requests an answer from somebody. A
question of finding out and interpreting information, however is more than a
logical grouping of words punctuated by question mark.
Norby (1980: 1187) continue explain that question tecnique is an
effective stimulus and is readily availed to the teacher. A well develop
understanding of the characteristic and potential of the question as well as
skill is used effectively, it become one of the most valuable device and the
teacher can assume responsibility as a manager of learning. Frankel (1980 :
153) say that points out that the essence of any effective teaching learning
strategy lies on the question what the people asks
Franze and schwartz, (1975) state that Several technique are employ to
encourage readers to generate question while reading text. Manzo Helfeldt
and Lalik (1976) stated that instruction in devising multiple choice question to
much instructional to generate objective question about main idea and
material of idea. Singer and Donlan (1982) state that the result indicate that
the student generation of the question while reading process improves
comprehension.
Darkin ( 1978/1979) state that observe also that the teacher tend to ask
question after the reading text, and the student response to question are
usually short and at the literal level, this question answer format is one
-

8/31

which offend led to the students assuming that their rote in the discourse is
only to answer the question at the end story are those posed by the teacher.
Nettles (2006) stated that teacher often fail to ask appropriate question in
the class room because they use to read narrative text can be transferred to
expository or informational text. Because some teacher are not strong in their
content knowledge or have deeper understanding of the text themselves they
have difficulty asking the higher level question.
Another reason for the poor attempt at appropriate question relate teacher
failing to match with students ability. Also, critical is that a number of teacher
are sometimes not able to label in the various types or level of the question
they pose to student neither can they identify the actual level of students
response to their question, because the question teacher ask are often not well.
They are often not effective in strengthening students proficiency in
comprehension.

4. ReflectionThe data value from evaluation would gather for data analysis, so the
researcher can reflect data value evaluation in the cycle I to the cycle II.
B. Research Variable and IndicatorThere were two variable namely dependent variable and independent
variable. Dependent variables are: word recognition, understanding main idea.
Independent variable was questioning technique.
The indicator focuses in literal comprehension.
C. Subject of the ResearchThe sample was the students of SMP Negeri 2 Bulukumpa in academic year
2010/2011 there was one class. The number of the population 27 students.
D. Instrument of the ResearchIn this research the writer use questioning test that consists of ten items for
each reading and the gives four reading test. The teacher gave test in each cycle
to find out the improvement of the students reading comprehension.

B.Questioning Technique for Reading Comprehension1.
Types of Questioning Technique
There are many kinds of questions. Frankle (1980: 154) points out six
types of questions considering from their function. Those types of questions
are as follow:
1) Recognitions questionThe questions determine if students have acquired a desire amount of
factual information they are asked to remember certain specific
information they have learned.
Example: Who is the fourth President of Indonesia?
What is the main idea of the reading text?
2) Descriptive questionsDescriptive questions ask students to put together and organized factual
details in some ways to make sense out their data. Students are asked to
describe data in more details.
Example: What are the advantages of recreation?
3) Explanatory questionThese questions ask students not only to remember and organize
materials, but also to make inferences and seek causes effects. Students
are asked to analyze, to break information into its component parts and
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
21/31
21
they explain how this part is related. Example: What do you think of the
beach?
4) Synthesizing questionThe out come hoped for here is to get students to suggest connection or
relationship that they believe certain data support, and on what basic.
Synthesizing questions require students to put things together, to combine,
relate, or connect pieces or previously unrelated content. They are ask to
seek out relationships, from connections, and draw conclusion. Example:
What does the second paragraph tell us about?
5) Judgmental questionJudgmental questions require students to choose among alternatives
making a judgment to which of two or more possibilities is best according
to some previously established criteria. In short, we are asking students to
choose or otherwise judge as to the quality of a relationship or
conclusions, basic their choice on a certain set of characteristic or
criteria purposed in greater degree by are of the alternatives in questions.
Example: which of the following conclusion is the most logical?
Which do you prefer, go to beach or zoo?
6) Open-ended questionThesequestions require students to seek and to determine for themselves
what are acceptable answers. No answers are more acceptable than others.
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
22/31
22
(Fraenkel, 1980: 158) states that this type of activity as divergent and
convergent thinking.
Example; Why do many people dislike to be a teacher?
From thus explanation, it can be concluded that using questioning
technique in teaching reading is interesting for the students. Beside that using
questioning technique can improve students1 interest in teaching and learning
process, students can focus to the subject, and given students chance to
assimilation in reading comprehension from the text and to know the
difficulties that faced by the student, that is why using questioning technique
is very important for the students.
2. The Importance of Questions TechniqueQuestioning technique as one of the teacher basic tools of
communication is very effective in helping students learning how to learn, to
become independent in their learning and to think for themselves,
Cunningham (1971: 84} states that asking question is one of the ways used by
the teacher in other the students can improve their reading comprehension. In
other words, asking question is the most effective instrument for stimulating
and guided the students in teaching question. He also states that in learning
processes on the part of teaching, a teacher can begin by focusing on the kinds
of questions the teacher uses.
The greatest effect of the question is the way and to which it causes
the student to think. Further, Frankfe (1980: 153) points out that the essence
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
23/31
23
of any effective teaching strategy lies in the question a teacher ask. The
teacher is objective is to reveal a great deal about his objectives. The ability
to ask questions is an important skill for students, as well as teachers, to
possess, since it is an important key to effective learning. He also points out
that the kind of question that the students ask reveal a good deal about their
perception of the teacher attitude. In addition the questions used in teaching
strategy directly effect thinking skills developed by students.
The impact of asking question on the teaching and learning process is
evident. If teacher stressing factual recall in their questioning, students are
not expected to do much creative thinking.
C .Concepts of Reading Comprehension
The various definition of reading comprehension are formulated some
definitions of the given reading comprehension are presented in the following
spaces.
Johnson in Burn, (1989: 148) state that reading comprehension is one of
unitary process and a set of discreet process. So, the students explore comprehensi
on from two angels. The written units that the reader must understand the
different levels of comprehension that students should achieve.
Charles in Tahir (2001: 5) states that reading is a transmitting of
informations process where the author regarded as the informants (sender) and
reader on the another hand is receiver, during reading process it means that the
reader interact with the author directly the word directly means that what the
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
24/31
24
reader can be done during reading activity is only grasping and decoding
information, meanwhile he can not ask question or comment to author directly.
Smith and Robinson (1980: 205) state that reading comprehension means
understand, evaluating and utilize of information and ideas gained through an
interaction between the reader and the author and a reader in which the written
language becomes the medium that cause the dialogue happen when the two
persons communicate through the medium print.
Reading comprehension is key to school school success to help the student
construction meaning from text, it is important that the teacher explicit
instruction, in comprehension strategies. This entail offering the rationale for
strategies, modeling, and providing independent guiding practice in authentic text,
some component of comprehension strategies necessary to understand text.
By looking over those definitions above, it can be conduced that reading is
an active process where the readers try to gain the information given by the author
and understand what actually the purpose of the author is
1 . Reading strategies
The reading strategies can be categorized into several kinds. They are
effective reading, survey reading, skimming, scanning, intensive reading and
strategies with bottom-up and top-down reading understanding system.
a. Effective reading
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
25/31
25
The effective reading means be able to read accurately and efficiently
and to understand as much of the passage as you need in order to achieve
your purpose (Greenal, et, Al: 1986)
b. Survey readingThe survey reading is specialized techniques, for getting top view of
an article, chapter, or entire book. Whit if you catch a board, overall
picture of basic essential.
c. SkimmingSkimming means enable of people to select content that they want to
read and to discard that which is quintile for their purpose. Skimming can
also be called as the eyes quickly over the text to discover what is about,
the main ideas, and the gist (Abbott, et. Al: 1981).
d. ScanningScanning is to serve two functions. They are uncover relevant,
information and accelerates your reading speed flexibility (Brown Alafia,
2000: 8) or the reader work out for particular item believes is in the text
(Abbott, et, Al: 1981), scanning is to read a test quickly on order to locate
a specific item of information
e. Intensive readingThe intensive reading strategy is study reading. This involves close
study of the text. As amount of comprehension should be high, the speed
of reading is correspondently slower (Abbott, et. Al: 1981).

1. Reason for ReadingAccording to Jeremy Harmer (1995: 190), there are reasons for
reading. There are:
a. Reading in language learningReading is an exercise Dom mated by the eyes and the bring. The eyes
receives message and the brain has to work out the significance
of these message.
b. Reading for informationIn most cases, reading for information is relevant to accurate study of
the reader. They read to find out information to reduce their uncertain.
c. Reading for pleasureReading for pleasure is done without other people order but
according to an individual reader wish and taste.
2. Levels of comprehensionThe following are levels of reading comprehension according to Smith
and Wayne is:
1. Literal comprehension; mat is the skill of getting primary direct literalmeaning of a word, idea, orsentence in context.
2. Interpretation that is identify ideas and meaning that is not explicitlystated in the written test
3. Critical reading that is to evaluate what is read, and to examine criticallythe thought of the writer.

4. Creative reading; that is to apply ideas from the text to new situation andto recombine authors ideas with other idea test to form new concept or to
expend old ones
Levels of reading comprehension (Carnine in Gamine 1 990) are:
1. Comprehension skill for the primary level consist of;a) Literal comprehension: mar is to receive information stared in a
passage.
b) Sequencing comprehension; that is to order several events from apassage according to when they happened.
c) Summarization: that to receive information state in a passage.2. Comprehension skill for the intermediate level consist of
b) Inferential comprehension that is to reveal relationships between twoobject and events (staled or not scared]
c) Critical reading; mat is to identify the author conclusion todetermine what evidence is presented, and to identify fealty argument
d) Comprehension skill for the advanced level mat is the appreciation ofthe author work.
3. Factor Influencing ComprehensionThere are external and internal factor in reading comprehension. All
of which share the success in reading:
1) Motivation
-
7/31/2019 Proposal Skill Reading,,,
28/31
28
Motivation is very important to the success and failure in reading
depends on one's motivation to read, when the students have high
motivation to read they will work ha/d to overcome the difficult
material. One's motivation could be influence by external and internal
factors, such as the material used by the teacher and prior knowledge
2) ConcentrationConcentration means to focus our attention clearly on purpose.
Concentration is very easy to do if we are interest in what we read,
concentration is much needed in reading comprehension.
3)Teacher's guidanceTeacher guidance influences how the students understand particular
assignment because lack of sufficient guidance may also be a major factor
in low reading comprehension,
4)The length and difficult to the material for reading5)Vocabulary acquisition and the ability to form concept are essential for
reading

E Conceptual Framework
Learning process is the main activity in the school. There is interaction
between teacher and students. Teaching and learning process is done and guided to
reach the maximal result. To reach the maximal result, the teacher must be able to
design the learning model based on the material subject and to practice the students
thinking.
Many factors can improve the students ability in reading; one of them is
using questioning technique. Namely judgmental questions and explanatory questions
