N2  - The aim of this study is to reveal the effectiveness of using THIEVES and 
CSR strategies  to  improve  the  reading  comprehension  of grade  8  students  of 
MTsN 2 Jepara.  
In order to achieve the objective of this research, the researcher designed a 
quasi-experimental study. The subject of this study was 110  grade 8  students of 
MTsN  2 Jepara; 38 students acted as the experimental group 1 to be taught 
reading comprehension by using  the THIEVES strategy, 36 students acted as the 
experimental  group 2 to be taught reading comprehension by using  the  CSR 
strategy,  and the other 36 students as the control group to be taught reading 
comprehension by using  the conventional strategy. The  instrument for collecting 
the data included  a pre-test and post-test, which consisted of 40 multiple-choice 
items. The resulting data were compared and analyzed to see the effectiveness of 
using the two strategies.    
The results of the study show that the score of experimental groups 1 and 2 
is higher than that of the control group. Based on the results, it can be concluded 
that  THIEVES and CSR  strategies  are effective  in  improving  reading 
comprehension. The data  also  show  that  the  CSR strategy is better than  the 
THIEVES strategy.
