The mean scores of post test were 73.14 with 8.168 standar deviation. The data were analyzed by using t_test and SPSS versi 15. From the calculation of the result of the test, it was found that t_calculated 2.84 and t_table 1.671 with p = 0.05 and degree freedom 54. So it mean t_calculted was higher than t_table .

           Membaca merupakan salah satu keahlian penting yang harus dimiliki oleh seorang pelajar, karena dengan membaca siswa dapat memperluas ilmu pengetahuan atau wawasan mereka. Banyak siswa yang malas untuk membaca bacaan yang berupa naratif atau dongeng karena mereka susah untuk memahami tentang isi dari materinya serta unsur-unsur yang ada didalamnya. Untuk itu peneliti akan mengenalkan suatu strategi membaca untuk anak SMA yaitu dengan menggunakan Strategy Story Face, dimana siswa akan cepat memahami struktur naratif teks dalam waktu yang singkat.

            Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membuktikan apakah strategi story face efektif untuk membantu siswa memahami naratif teks. Strategi story face ini diharapkan dapat membantu siswa memahami naratif teks.  

Peneliti menerapkan strategi ini di SMA N 2 Koto XI Tarusan. Metode penelitiannya adalah pre eksperimen. Populasi penelitian ini adalah seluruh siswa kelas sebelas, kelas sebelas ini terdiri dari 5 kelas, XI IPAI, XI IPA2, XI IPA 3, XI IPS 1 dan XI IPS 2 dengan jumlah siswa 148 orang. Dalam pengambilan sample, peneliti menggunakan teknik random sampling. Dalam pemilihan ini didapatkan kelas XI IPS 1. Dalam pengambilan data, peneliti menggunakan instrument yaitu reading test.

Dari pre-test diperoleh nilai rata-rata kelas eksperimental 63.46 dengan standar deviasi 11.24, setelah selesai pre-test diadakan treatment empat kali pertemuan. Kemudian siswa kembali diberikan post-test dengan hasil nilai rata-rata siswa 73.14 dengan standar deviasi 8.168. Proses pengolahan data dilakukan berdasarkan rumus t-test dan SPSS versi 15. Dari hasil pengolahan data tersebut diperoleh bahwa t_hitung  adalah 2.84 dan t_table1.671 dengan p = 0.05 dan derajat kebebasan 54.Itu berarti bahwa t_hitung  lebih besar dari t_table.. Itu berarti bahwa ada perbedaan yang significant antara pre test and post test.

Jadi, dapat disimpulkan bahwa dengan strategi ini siswa dapat dengan mudah memahami bacaan teks naratif. Oleh karena itu, guru bahasa Inggris pada sekolah lanjutan tingkat atas disarankan untuk menggunakan strategi story face ini.
