1.1 Background of the Study
Human being as one part of three alive-creatures besides animal and plant has particular ability. It makes him so special, and dominates the others. They have given thought and mind that they use in their community to socialize with others. Instead of this, they are able to adapt, to survive and to analyze the universe phenomenon, which make quality of their life better than before. They have whole ability because God has granted them brain. Their curiosities are so great that they learn more and more. Furthermore, something that makes them more special than the others that is they know the way to express their feeling, thought, and emotion.
People mostly use language in their daily life to express their feeling, thought, and emotion. There are many definitions of language found by scientists or linguist. According to Paul (2005:1) states that a language is a complex form of communication, and that people talk in other to share and request information. English is an international language, is recently taught in all school started from play group up to college. In Indonesia, English is a foreign language; it is not easy for Indonesian people to master English very well. In English language the students should be know four language skills, namely reading, speaking, listening and writing also to use the language communicatively.
However, in the real situation reading is still the major concern of the teaching learning
