Kurniawati, 2013. An Analysis of Amplifying Attitude Resources Used in English Textbooks For Grade X Students Of Senior High School. English Education Department, Teacher Training and Education Faculty, Muria Kudus University. Advisors: (1) Dr H. A. Hilal Madji, M.Pd., (2) Fitri Budi Suryani, SS, M.Pd. Keywords: Amplifying Attitude Resources, Text, English Textbooks Grade X. The way how we identify the strength of feeling to someone or something written in the texts is using amplifying attitude resources. As one of options of Appraisal systems that might be use to increase reading skill of students of university, amplifying attitude resources involves two kinds of resources, first is for turning the volume up or down that it refers to as force. These include degree of intensify meanings, attitudinal lexis, metaphors and swearing. The second involves sharpening or softening categories of people and things. The objective of this research is to identify the resources of amplifying attitude realized in the texts of English textbooks for grade X student’s and hopefully by knowing it, can help students of university more understand and recognize how the amplifying attitude resources realized in the texts of English textbooks for grade X students. The design of this research is qualitative research and uses descriptive analysis as the form of qualitative data analysis. The data of this research is represented by amplifying attitude .The data sources of this research are six texts in form of genre and transaction in three English textbooks Grade X, such as: Look A Head, English For Better Life and Interlanguage, English for Senior High School Students X (BSE). The result of analysis shows there are five types of the amplifying attitude resources found in the six texts selected. Those are 43 clauses of Intensifiers meaning, 9 clauses of Attitudinal Lexis, 14 clauses for Metaphors, 35 clauses for Sharpening and 20 clauses showing softening resources. For swearing resources, it does not found in the six texts selected. Intensifiers meaning become the dominant amplification resources, then follow it by sharpening, softening, metaphors and attitudinal lexis. So, it can be conclude, the author of the text dominant uses Intensifiers meaning, perhaps they wants to tell the reader how turning up or down the volume of attitude include raising or lowering the feeling about someone or things. I considered the amplifying attitude resources knowledge is very important in Discourse subject, so for lecturers of English Education Department are suggested to use this research as an example when they teach about Discourse especially Appraisal system, and for the students of university can learn more about amplifying attitude because it will make easy to recognize the strength of feeling in the text include learn how they amplify their feeling through the texts.
