CHAPTER II
RELATED THEORETICAL REVIEW

In this chapter, the writer considers that it is important to review several topics used in this study, in order to reach literature in work. To support the theory some books and other printed work are applied as reference in this paper.
A. Definition
1. Habit
As human being, we always get in touch with other people such as- our parent, friends, teachers and any body else wherever and whenever even foreigners. We always find diversity of culture, habit, character, behavior and even language. Diversity makes us know how to adapt and makes relationship with other people. The important thing in diversity how to respect each other and mutual understanding.
Everyone has difference habit; it is easy to makes social conflict. If there are not mutual understanding and tolerance each other. One of the ways to get mutual understanding by learning a habit in environment, such as - daily language which is used as tool of communication. Habit can be caused by environment, life style, etc. in this chapter there are many definition of habit:
According to Professor Sir Randolph (1987; 469) in Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English said that:
“ habit is a tendency to be have in particular way or particular thing, especially regularly and repeatedly over a long period “.

While in http://www.bartleby.com/61/habit (120107)
a. A recurrent, often unconscious pattern of behavior that is acquired through frequent repetition.
b. An established disposition of mind or character.

According to As Hornby (1995; 533) in Oxford Advanced learner’s Dictionary said that:
“Habit is a thing that person does often and almost without thinking”

While in http://www.m-w.com/dictionary/habit (120107)
“A prevailing disposition or character of person’s thought and feeling: mental make up”

Based on the definitions, it can be concluded that habit is all activities that done repeatedly for a long time without thinking.
According to J.D.O.Connor (1967; 01) in Better English pronunciation said that:
“Language starts with the ear. When a baby stars to talk he does it by hearing the sound his mother makes and imitating them “.

So, it can be concluded that Language is habit:
a. Speaking is mouth-action: so, you must use your mouth.
b. Reading is mouth and eye-action: so, you must use your mouth.
c. Listening is ear-action: so, you must use your ear.
d. Writing is hand-action: so, must use your action.
Someone can speak depend on hearing, but just hearing, it is not enough, she or he must listen to it, and it is not for the meaning but for the sound of it. It means that language is habit. Make it habit, she or he will get it. If she or he wants to speak fluently she or he must has habit in speaking. Speaking is mouth-action, being fussy will make better in speaking.
It also to foreign language as English is needed more practice and a great deal of patience in learning it. And environment has important role to be success in learning language. Because a good environment is not a luxury, but it is necessity. It means that learning language is needed a habit in environment. So, to success in learning language, we must live in area in which the language is used.
2. Internet
Internet as electronic communications has many useful for human life, because communication is a systematic attempt to formulate in rigorous fashion the principles by which information is transmitted and opinions and attitudes are formed.
By searching internet people can take and give information, in internet all information is there. People can look for all information through the web site in which they are searching such as – yahoo (www.yahoo.com), Google (www.google.com) and others. Even people can watch movie through internet. So, the function of internet as information sources or electronic book, because in internet many reference books in which there are not have at book store or library.
In internet the information does not only national but also international information, so people can enjoy the information by searching internet and they can communication in far of way. All people know about internet, but actually what is the meaning of internet:
http://www.webopedia.com./TERM/I/internet.htm
“A global network connecting million of computers, more than 100 countries is liked into exchanges of data, news and opinions”.

http://www.m-w.com/internet
“A computer network consisting of a worldwide network of computer networks that use the TCP/IP network protocols to facilitate data transmission and exchange”

Based on those definitions it can be concluded that Internet is a tool of communication and information sources.
By internet, someone will get a million information, such as - news, business, science, technology, entertainment etc. By using the facilities of websites through internet an information can be known fast, one’s also gets job vacancy, partner, even pair of couple, because many web site which offer them. In internet there are facilities which can be used or offered, such as e-mail, chatting and also web site. So everyone can do transaction and communication through the facilities in internet.
According to Helen S. Solórzano (2006:10) in Nort star: Building Skill for The TOEFL IBT, High intermediate said:
“Due to the development of technology such as satellite communication and internet, people in 21st century are better informed about world events than ever before.

In additions, news coverage is no longer limited by geography and distance. Modern internet and satellite technology allows broadcasters to send video and audio reports around the world, so event that were once local now have global audience, and we can learn about breaking news in every corner of the world “.

In this era, internet has been mass media, because in sort time, the role of internet has influence on the way of people’s thinking; include public opinion to interest industrial products. Be caused the facilities on internet more interest, so many people spend their time to search it and used it as tool of communication.
