CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
A. Background of the Research
Language is very important in our lives, because it is always used in our daily activity to communicate with the others. We can’t communicate each other without language, because it is one of the communication tools used by people in general. We can use language to convey our messages or to express our ideas through oral, written, or signal languages.
There are some more countries that used the kind of languages in this world including English. One of the countries is Indonesia that has been our beloved country. It has Indonesian language and the other countries do too.
Although there are many kind of languages in this world, all of the people from over the world can communicate each other by using English because it is an international language used among them to communicate. It is identic with the Janet Holmes state in his book by saying:” A world language or international language is English language. It was used by people such as in economic,
political and also education.”3 In Indonesia, English as the foreign language that was taught in every
school from the elementary to the university level. The study of foreign language as the main lesson for the students who learn their first foreign language. They study it by mastering the four basic languages namely: listening, speaking, reading and writing. The first is mastering listening skill. Students listen to every sound in the environment. The second is mastering speaking skill. In this step, they try to practice what they listen. The third is mastering reading skill. Usually they start learning this skill when they study in kinder garden or elementary school. The fourth skill is mastering writing skill. Those are four language skills which should be started by people when they study language.
Speaking is a crucial part of the foreign language learning and teaching, because it can be used for the student to express their ideas orally in foreign language. Without speaking skill they will just keep silent. In order to speak well, they must practice their skill in everyday live. Therefore, the teacher should give students opportunity to practice their speaking skill by giving some more
example or activities that put them into the real practice communication.
In English lesson there are many text types which is should learn by students. One of them is procedure text. According to Oxford Learner Pocket Dictionary, procedure is usual or proper way of doing something. When we talked about procedure we also talked about process, because procedure is process of doing something. We also have taught about procedure in islamic
teaching, for example the process or procedure of making human. It was explained in the holy Qur’an surah Al-Mu’minun: 12-154
?And indeed We create man (Adam) out of an extract of clay (water and
earth).Thereafter We made him ( the offspring of Adam) as a Nutfah
(mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) in
safe lodging (womb of the women). Then We made the nutfah into a clot
( a piece oof thick coagulated blood), then We made the clot into a little
lump of flesh, then We made out of that little lump of flesh bones, then
We clothed the bones with flesh, and then We brougt it forth as another
creation. So Blessed is Allah, the Best of creators. After that, surely you
will die”.
The explanation of versus above is actually We take the oath that We created human, that is kind of human that you witnessed, started from extract of clay that is from ground. Then, We made the extract become nutfah (mixed drops of the male and female sexual discharge and lodged it) then We safe it in womb of women. Then We created nutfah become alaqah, after that We created
alaqah became mudhghoh that is a clot ( a piece off thick coagulated blood), then We made it into a little lump of flesh, then We made of out that little lump flesh with flesh bones, then we clothed the bones with flesh, then we gave a life and we made a creature that different with other creature. So, Allah is the best creator. After that, its mean after thoughing that processes and processes in the
earth strated from baby, child, tenageer, adult and old, you will die.5 From the explanation above, we can see that there are many steps before human is created.
