Abstract

Reading is an important skill that students need to comprehend and interpret the content of an English text. Teaching reading at the junior high school level aims to improve students' comprehension skills. The exposition text is one of the genres listed in the English curriculum for junior high school. It is also one of the more challenging genres for learners to grasp when it comes to text comprehension. The aim of this study was to discover students' difficulties in comprehending exposition text based on their reading comprehension level as determined by Barret's Taxonomy.This study was descriptive qualitative. The participant consisted of 42 students from Ponpes Bait Qur'an Kayuagung.The reading test in the form of multiple choice with 40 questions of exposition text was applied in this study as an instrument. Based on Barret's Taxonomy analysis, students' problems with exposition comprehension were linked to literal comprehension, reorganization, inference, evaluation, and appreciation. Hence, the POE strategy is recommended to address students' difficulties in comprehending exposition text.

从POE策略探讨学生理解说明文的困难

阅读是学生理解和解释英语文本内容所需要的一项重要技能。初中阅读教学旨在提高学生的阅读理解能力。说明文是初中英语课程中所列的文本类型之一。它也是学习者在理解文本时最难掌握的体裁之一。本研究的目的是根据学生的阅读理解水平，发现他们理解说明文的困难。本研究为描述性定性研究。参与者包括来自Ponpes Bait quuran Kayuagung的42名学生。本研究采用40道题的选择题阅读测试作为工具。根据巴雷特的分类分析，学生的说明文理解问题与字面理解、重组、推理、评价和欣赏有关。因此，我们建议使用POE策略来解决学生理解论述文本的困难。
