achievement of narrative text, it can be seen from the gain score of pre-test and post-test.
3.9 Hypothesis Testing
After getting the mean of the pre-test and the post-test, the data was analyzed by using repeated measures T-Test in order to know the significance of the treatment
effect. Hypothesis of this research:
“There was significant increase of students’ reading comprehension achievement of
narrative text after they are taught through DRTA strategy.”
The hypothesis was statistically analyzed by using Repeated Measures T-test that was used to draw the conclusion at the level of 0.05 p 0.05. It can be seen
from 3 treatments result of try out, pre-test and post-test, because there is increase from 70.84 up to 77.51.
V. CONCLUSIONS AND SUGGESTIONS
5.1 Conclusions
In line with the result of the data analysis, the researcher draws the conclusion as follows:
1. There is a significant increase of students’ achievement in reading
comprehension of narrative text taught through DRTA Strategy. This can be identified from the gain of the score that is 6.67
of students’ reading comprehension achievement of narrative text. It can be seen from the mean of
students’ score pre-test and post-test which increase from 70.84 up to 77.51 and the increase is 6.67.

5.2 Suggestions
Referring to the conclusion above, the writer would like to propose some suggestions as follows:
1. English teachers are recommended to apply DRTA Strategy as one of the
ways in teaching reading comprehension of narrative text because it can help the students in comprehending the text easier in terms, in content, in
vocabulary, finding the specific information, reference, inference, determining the main idea.
2. English teachers are suggested to apply this strategy when discussing a
new topic, which is never discussed before. 3.
English teachers are suggested to have creativity when they conduct teaching and learning so the students will be more interested in the lesson.
For example when students could make a sentence only by seeing a picture shown by the researcher. Teachers must prepare instructional media such
as pictures. So, will facilitate the learning process in the class.
