RISDA ASFINA 12249 K.4 Hi, Zie ! I have a surprising news for you. Now, I'm in Sydney, Australia. I've been here since four days ago. I'm here with my cousins. How nice sydney is! We've visited several famous places here. They are Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, Royal Botanical Gardens, Luna Park, and Sydney Tower. All of them are really wonderful. So, that's why Sydney is stated as one of the nicest cities in the world. But, everything is expensive here. Of course because Sydney is the most expensive city in Australia and the 66th in the world. I will come back to Padang after holiday is over. So, I still have time for about three days. I won't miss anything here. So, for the rest time, I plan to go to some museums here, such as Powerhouse Museum, Art Gallery of New South Wales, and Museum of Contemporary Art. If you were here right now, you would enjoy it too, and you wouldn't want to leave it soon. So, I look forward to having travelling around...

Given the evidence of its significance, this study aims to figure out the effect of visualizing the text upon the students’ reading comprehension observed from their cognitive learning styles namely field dependent (FD) and field independent (FI). Due to its purpose, the experimental study, quasy-experimental research to be specific, was carried out. Fifty four fifth-semester students at Universitas Negeri Malang participated in this study.
