Otherwise, in the control group, a significant difference isn't observed. There is a significant between the students reading passages with their favourite characters and those who read traditional passages. When the experimental group's pre-test and final test in raeding motivations are compared the scale's lower factors that reading difficulty perceptions, reading suffiency, efforts of reading and total points showed no difference in statistical way. Experimental and control group's final test points of reading motivations are compared, scale of difficulty in reading, suffiency of reading, efforts of reading lower factors and total points showed statistical difference. However the social aspects of reading no difference in manner of statistics. Finally, the passages with student's favourite characters develops their reading motivations.
