The study indicates the levels of English vocabulary among 128 Grade 8 junior high school students in the Sumbawa District. The EFL learners of Sumbawa District were divided into four environment-based groups, namely; environment-based urban, represented by SMPN 2 Sumbawa (n=32), environment-based marine, represented by SMPN 4 Lab. Badas (n=32), environment-based urban, represented by SMPN 1 Moyo Hulu (n=32), and environment-based rural, represented by SMPN 1 Lopok (n=32). The quantitative descriptive research design was used to collect data pre- and post-test. The tests were multiple-choice, using environment-based reading material.
