Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep
moving.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Alhamdulillahirobbil ‘alamin, all praise be to the Almighty Allah SWT, the
Most Gracious and Most Merciful who always guides and protects me in every step I
take in my life. Because of His guidance, blessing and love, finally I could finish this
thesis and my study at State University of Yogyakarta.
It would not have been possible to write this thesis without the help and
support of the kind people around me. In any case, I am indebted to them for making
the time during my study an unforgettable experience.
I owe my deepest appreciation and gratitude to my first consultant, Suhaini M.
Saleh, M. A. who kindly helped and supported me during the process of writing my
thesis and has always been patient to give me his advices. I would also like to express
my gratitude to my second consultant who is also my academic consultant, Tri
Wahyuni Floriasti, M. Hum. who always gave precious suggestions and encouraged
me when I faced difficulties and obstacles during the process of writing my thesis and
also during my study in this campus.
I am deeply grateful to my beloved parents, Jendra Busana, S. Pd. and Rita
Khotijah, S. Pd. who always support me and show great patience all the time in my
life. I also thank my lovely little brother, Muhammad Luthfi Samhan, and all of my
big family members, especially Annisa Putri Fadhila, for always supporting me.
Furthermore, I would like to show my gratefulness to my best friends, Cinthya
Dewi Matahari and Anjarswari Erningtyas for the friendship, encouragement and
affection, and who have contributed their time and energy to help me conducting my
research and have given me some valuable criticisms and suggestions. I would like to
thank my fellow classmates of PBI B 2010 class: Ii’, Tiara, Olga, Iga, Sita, Tatik, Fia,
Upit, Zaqi, Zulfan, Alfa, Ical, Ipank, Jannah, Dwi and Cahya for unforgettable
moments during these last four years. I would like to thank my family-like friends:
Tantri, Titin, Vera, Wika, Novia, Eza and Bunga for always sharing laughter and love
for most of the time I spent in outer campus life.
I would like to address my gratitude to the school principal of SMP Negeri 3
Depok, Sukendar, S. Pd., M. Pd., and the English teacher, Dra. Y. Dyah Murti M,
who gave me permission and assistance during the research. I consider it an honor to
work with them. I also thank all class VIII C students of SMP Negeri 3 Depok for
their cooperation and participation so that I could finish my research.
I hope that this thesis is useful for the readers and beneficial to the English
teaching and learning process. However, I realize that it is far from being perfect, and
therefore, any criticisms, ideas and suggestions for its improvement will be greatly
appreciated.
