Abstract

In this contemporary world, English is used to link the communication among people internationally for different universal purposes (Crystal, 2003; Jenkins, 2010; and Kirkpatrick, 2011), for instance, educational advancement, career development, technology, and international relation. It is obvious that the function of English during this period of time has made some countries generate policies to include English as one of the compulsory subjects being taught at schools. However, the materials which are used in school practices are likely to focus on the target culture materials. Due to this reason, it seems that the role of local and target cultures in teaching the language should be taken into consideration. Related to the status of English to the importance of culture in language learning, this research aims at investigating English teachers’ perspectives on the appropriateness of materials in English Language Teaching. In order to get broader pictures, questionnaires and interview were conducted to two English teachers in Samarinda.  The results were interesting as both teachers preferred to expand the materials rather than used the readily materials provided by the school and/or the institution. This created them to become material developers and creators. Other results showed that the teachers were aware of the importance of the cultural content in the materials, thus culture functioned as ‘a filer and a connecting bridge’ in ELT.

Abstract

The Naked and the Dead, as Norman Mailer’s first and representative work, is not only the most classical war fiction, but also the most controversial work since World War II. The war is used as a background to explore various problems emerging in American society. Throughout history, violence has always played an important part in human development, and promoted the development of human society. War as the extreme manifestation of violence causes great significance on human history. During the time of World War Two, people lives under the shadow of totalitarianism, the situation is especially serious in the U.S. Army. Some of the soldiers are transformed to war machines with neither personal will nor identity. In Mailer’s mind, violence and creativity have a twin-like relation, if we cut all the violence out of society, we also cut out all the creativity, and violence becomes the resolution which people employ with to regain their humanity, so as to have self-redemption. Croft’s failure of conquering Mount Anaka fully revels there is still possibility that human can be redeemed.

Abstract

The research deals with moral values. Moral values are the standards of good and evil, which govern an individual’s behavior and choices. Individual’s morals may derive from society and government, religion, or self. When moral values derive from society and government they, of necessity, may change as the laws and morals of the society change. (Harris, 2012). There are two points of moral values analyzed in the novel. The first is hard work and the second is self-confidence and both are depicted through the words and actions of the major characters. Hard work is the key to success. Hard work always pays off. Hard work can turn sludge into gold. Hard work starts from where people stop looking for alternatives. (Tollander, 2011); the second is self-confidence, a belief in one’s own ability when doing anything, by viewing things positively and realistically (Albert, 2010). The research is conducted by descriptive qualitative method proposed by Creswell (2010). The results show that there are two points of moral values in the novel. The first is hard work and the second is self-confidence and both of the points are described by the major characters.
