The purpose of pre-questioning activities is to motivate the students to read the text and prepare them to be able to read it. The research was conducted to the second grader of SMPN 1 Kotabumi. The writer took two classes as the samples based on cluster sampling. The design of the research was quantitative research, that is a systematic scientific investigation involving analysis of data collection in the form of numbers and statistics using control group pre-test post-test design. The data was gained by administering a set of pre-test and post-test to both classes. The data was analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 15.0. The hypotheses were tested by using Independent Group T-test. The test result showed that the mean of post-test in experimental class 1 was 68.63 and the mean of post-test in experimental class 2 was 64.71. Probability level (p)was 0.021. It was lower than 0.05. Here, H is accepted if significant value exceeds level of significance at 0.05, meanwhile, H 0 is rejected if significant value does not exceed level of significance at 0.05. Because the null hypothesis (H 0 )was proved p < 0.05, it meant that H 0 was rejected and H was accepted. In other words, there is a significant difference between pre-questioning and without prequestioning on the reading comprehension achievement. Besides that, prequestioning activities was more effective strategy than without pre-questioning. It was proved by the number of students who got scores higher than KKM. There was 65.71% of the whole students in experimental class 1and 48.57% students in experimental class 2 who exceed the KKM. Moreover, the result of students’ post- 1 0 test score in experimental class 1 was higher than the students’ score in experimantal class 2. date: 2012-02-15 date_type: published publication: Digital Library refereed: TRUE citation: 0543042084, Suzanorita (2012) COMPARATIVE STUDY OF READING COMPREHENSION ACHIEVEMENT BETWEEN PRE-QUESTIONING AND WITHOUT PRE-QUESTIONING AT THE SECOND GRADER OF SMPN 1 KOTABUMI.
