Writing is one of language skills taught at school. Learning to write in English as a foreign language is always challenging for the students. In the curriculum of EED UMK, it is a must for the students to have ability in writing many types of text or genre. In writing texts, cohesion is needed to make clear and understandable. The types of them can be identified grammatically and lexically. The writer decides to analysis narrative text written by the fifth semester students of EED UMK in the academic year 2011/2012 because they have learned to do it. They also have to able in handling cohesion in the text because they have been trained it in the previous semester. The objectives of this research are to describe the competence of the fifth semester students of English Education Department the University of Muria Kudus in the academic year 2011/2012 in handling cohesion in writing narrative text. It also aims in finding cohesive devices found in that text and to describe appropriateness of cohesive devices used in that text. This research is evaluated by a descriptive quantitative study inferred from the results of cohesive devices found the students’ texts. They show that the use of cohesive devices by the fifth semester students of EED UMK is quite enough. However some inappropriate uses of cohesive devices are easily noticed concerning the total use of those devices. In addition, some of cohesive devices are widely used but inappropriately, and some of them are less used but appropriately. Students’ use of cohesive devices mainly appears with the use of reference because they are most probably known by the students. In this research, there are 26 narrative texts written by the students. Based on the analyzing of the data, grammatical cohesion is widely used by the students. It is found 64.4% from 1530 cohesive devices found in the texts. The types of cohesive devices most used by the students are reference (39%), repetition (33.7%), and conjunction (23.5%). However, most of the conjunction devices are used inappropriately. There 76 inappropriate conjunctions found in the texts from 159 inappropriate cohesive devices. Cohesive devices most rarely used by the students are hyponymy and meronymy. The writer just finds 3 hyponymy devices and 1 meronymy device from 1530 cohesive devices. The appropriateness of cohesive devices used by the students is larger than inappropriateness of cohesive devices used. The percentage of appropriateness of cohesive devices show 89,6% from 1530 cohesive devices found in the text. The results reveal that appropriateness of all of the cohesive devices’ types grammatically and lexically are larger than inappropriate one. The competence of the students in handling cohesive devices in their writing can be showed from appropriate cohesive devices and clauses in the text. Almost all of the students can handle cohesive ties in their text well. The result shows that the competence of the students in handling cohesive devices can be categorized good. The writer suggests the students in writing a genre or text, they should use cohesive tie to make the text clearly and understandable. The students also should enrich their knowledge about cohesive devices because it is useful for writing. They should not worry to express cohesive devices in their text. From this research, the teachers can identify the common mistake done by the students in writing a text and in handling cohesive devices then they can correct the mistake in the teaching learning process.
