Despite the benefits of it as the medium for the students to learn with the absence of the teacher, it also gives beneficial or them to learn independently and creatively. However, as it is a latest for both teachers and students, the adversity cannot be avoided in terms of assignments and assessments. Therefore, this study was aimed to reveal the students’ attitude towards the assignments and assessments provided by the teacher for Reading in E-learning Program. The participants of this study were 40 students of reading class at the fourth semester of English Department of Faculty of Letters of Pamulang University. The data were collected by questionnaires and observation that the questionnaires were given to the students of reading subject while observation was conducted by observing reading assignment and assessment of E-learning program. The data from observation were analyzed by using qualitative measurement and the questionnaire used paper-based Likert-scale. The results showed that in spite of the difficulties in adapting in E-learning program they also have difficulties in understanding the materials and term of assessment. Furthermore, there is a negative attitude from them toward the assignment and assessment of reading in E-learning program.Keywords:, assignment, assessment, attitude, e-learning, reading","PeriodicalId":148876,"journal":{"name":"Lexeme : Journal of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125600265","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The contrastive analysis is used to make the second language or foreign language learners understand more easily on the target language being learnt. In this case, the study tried to contrast Indonesian language as L1 and English as L2. The data that were used in this study were taken from two sources; Indonesian and English Grammar. The grammar was sorted specifically only on imperative sentences that were collected through attentive observation method and is continued by notetaking technique. Hence, some imperative sentences that were collected were then be analyzed by comparing language units with determining tools in form of comparative relationship between all determining elements that are relevant with all the determined language units. The result revealed that there were some similarities and differences in the verb features of Indonesian and English imperative sentences. Both Indonesian and English mostly use base verb to form imperative sentences, in some cases, they also use suffixes. Also, they attach marker words to form negative and to soften the imperative sentence. On the contrary, some contrasts were found in the existence of passive form, the use of suffixes, the distribution of some markers, the use of auxiliary verbs, and the existence of inversion form.Keywords: Contrastive Study, English, Imperative sentences, Indonesian, Verb Features","PeriodicalId":148876,"journal":{"name":"Lexeme : Journal of Linguistics and Applied Linguistics","volume":"118 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128509599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For most active clauses, there is a corresponding passive clause, which has almost exactly the same meaning, but a different emphasis.

The data used in this research is the error on active and passive voices on students’ writing at public senior high school. To get the data, the students wrote their own text.

This study, then, concentrated on the news reports regarding the issue of KPK vs. Polri conflict in three selected online newspapers, namely The Jakarta Post, the Jakarta Globe, and Tempo.Co. By adopting Bell’s (2007) work, the study analyzed the news text structure at the discourse level, where it dealt with the process of inclusion and exclusion in the headline, lead, and news scheme (contents). The data revealed that while The Jakarta Post (JP) tended to be objective in delivering the news in relation to Budi Gunawan’s case, the discursive strategy was practiced by The Jakarta Globe (JG) and Tempo through the news text structure at the discourse level. JG, in that case, gave the positive appraisal to Budi Gunawan (Polri) more than to KPK. Tempo, on the other hand, preferred to highlight the role of President Joko Widodo on Budi Gunawan’s case.
