Abstract

Conditional sentences are an important type of sentence that students need to master. This study aims to analyze tenth grade students' ability to write conditional sentence type I at SMKN 10 Padang. Descriptive research design was used with sample of 34 students selected through proportional stratified random sampling. The research instrument was a sentence writing test consisting of 24 conditional sentences type I in positive, negative, and interrogative forms. The instrument is reliable and valid, the reliability is 0,93 (very high) correlation index (appendix 5) and the instrument is valid because the researcher used content validity (based on the syllabus of SMKN 10 Padang). In general, the tenth-grade students at SMKN 10 Padang had low ability in writing conditional sentence type I. This is supported by the fact that 10 students (29,41%) had low ability. In details, 15 students (44,12%) had very good ability in writing conditional sentence type I in positive form, 12 students (35,29%) had low ability in writing conditional sentence type I in negative form, and 13 students (38,24%) had low ability in writing conditional sentence type I in interrogative form. Based on the result of the data analysis, it can be concluded that the students’ ability in writing conditional sentence type I was low. In this regard, the research aims to propose some suggestions to English teachers, students and future researchers. English teachers should give more exercises to tenth-grade students of SMKN 10 Padang in writing conditional sentence type I and encourage them to practice in writing conditional sentence type I. The students should do more exercises in writing conditional sentence type I in order to improve their ability to do it. Finally, future researchers are suggested to do other research about other types of conditional sentences to see the comparison.
