| Abstraksi Narasi | : | One of the purposes of vocabulary teaching is to produce word knowledge that is rich and proficient enough to facilitate complex verbal tasks. There are three broad ways of explaining the meaning of words, by non-linguistic means, via translation and via target language. Web frequency indexer is a free web based program that will help vocabulary teachers to prepare vocabulary teaching via translation and target language contextually. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This study was concerned with the effectiveness of the use of a diary in promoting metacognitive learning strategies of semester eight students of Sanata Dharma University. Prequestionnaire was administered aiming to see the frequency of use of a diary and metacognitive learning strategies prior to the provision of a diary. Postquestionnaire was then administered to see whether or not the use of a diary helped improve learners` metacognitive learning strategies. To find out the effectiveness of a diary, the mean of the prequestionnaire was compared with the mean of the postquestionnaire. Since the mean of the postquestionnaire was higher than the mean of the prequestionnaire, it was concluded that the use of a diary did help improve learners` metacognitive learning strategies. This finding, however, is not meant to be generalised to other contexts of learning since this study was action research in nature. Besides, numbers are not of primary concern in this study. What is more important is the observed change of learners` behaviour in language learning. Learning became more autonomous. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | As Chinese culture may be similar to Indonesian culture, some measures which can be taken to better English Teaching in China can also be applied in Indonesian context. Accordingly, this paper attempts to study problems of English language teaching (ELT) in China, and will focus on the use of group work in the teaching learning activities. In order to understand why group work may be suitable for Chinese students, this paper discusses the root of education in China, namely Confucianism, and the current English teaching practices. Discussion about the relationship between language and culture will also be presented to verify the significance of cross-cultural communication. This is important as the basic for acculturating group work techniques. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | It is admitted that literary research is devoted to the enlightenment of criticism. This paper tries to make use of postcolonial criticism to look into a wonderful work of Fernando Blumentritt`s "Are There Superior or Inferior Races" Published in Solidaridad (respectively on issues 149, 151, 152, 154 and 155 of 1895). There are six items worth pointing out and all in all, we can see that the work is not always in line with so-called rejecting the claims to iniversalism made on behalf of canonical Western tradition. It is however, supporting the fact that there are boundaries of cultural and ethnic difference. Besides, the work also sees that there is the so-called the influence of an "experience" of externally inserted phenomena - namely colonization and imperialism. Further, the work admits the existence of hybridity and cultural polyvalency, that is, the situation whereby individuals and groups belong simultaneously to more than one culture. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | Trosborg (1980) investigated the preferences of ESL in using metaphors or literal expressions. She found out that the rising proficiency in the TL was followed by the higher tendency in using metaphors. Similar to Trosborg`s, this study is aimed at finding out the preference in using metaphors, but the subjects are EFL learners. Three groups were set as subjects. Each contains of 20 students. The three groups were (1) semester III students, (2) Semester V students, and (3) semester VII students. All of them belonged to the English Department, Atma Jaya Catholic University, Jakarta. A test on metaphor preference was carried out for the groups and the data were statistically tested using one-way ANOVA. Different from Trosborg`s, the finding of this research shows that there is no significant difference of the means among the three groups. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | The discussion in this paper is centered around the beginner`s paradox in SL/FL vocabulary acquisition and Extensive Reading (ER). Related to this issue, it seems justifiable to ask a question: How can a beginning language learner learn anough words to learn vocabulary through extensive reading? The topic of this paper is relevant to the discussion in an Indonesian setting where English is taught as a foreign language and reading activities occupy most of the learning time. To examine the topic further, discussion will be presented on vocabulary acquisition, ER, necessary conditions of effective vocabulary acquisition through ER, problems encountered and how to solve them. Despite of all attempts to investigate the topic, it remains a mystery and a paradox. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This paper sets out to address the problems facing non-mainstream Indonesian students at school. It is this writer`s contention that non-mainstream students experience primary and secondary discourse conflict due to their less advantaged background. These difficulties are too often not properly recognised and go unnoticed by schools and those involved in education. It is hoped that by the end of the discussion, a better understanding of discourse, primary and secondary discourse, literacy and their possible conflict among non-mainstream Indonesian students at school my be achieved. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | This study was concerned with L2 lexical retrieval accuracy by unbalanced bilinguals in forward translation production (FTP) and Forward translation recognition (FTR). Theories of L2 Lexical represention, lexical development and lexical processing are reviewed in connection with forward translation production and recognition. Results of the study indicate that (1) the accuracy of L2 lexical retrieval in FTP is positively correlated with that in FTR, (2) the accuracy of L2 lexical retrieval in FTR is significantly better than that in FTP. Levels of lexical development, different lexical retrieval processing in FTP and FTR as well as availability of response items in FTR which may serve both as confirmation of L2 lexical retrieval or as stimuli for activation of L2---->L1 links in FTR are suspected to be important factors of the difference in L2 Lexical retrieval accuracy in FTP and FTR. |

| Abstraksi Narasi | : | The background to discussing "Determining a Standard for Testing Speaking Skill" as the topic of this paper is that there is a great weakness of oral ratings in speaking test as they have a tendency to have rather low reliability. This paper is an attempt to provide an alternative of scoring the interview during a speaking test, so that a tolerable degree of reliability for the scored interview can be achieved. The writer has taken the rating system used by Harris (1977) and that by Hazell (2000). Harris divided speaking skill into 5 elements i.i., pronounciation, grammar, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension, together with its levels and behavioral statements. And Hazell added one more point that is communicative effectiveness. |
