ABSTRACT
This thesis entitled “X-BAR APPLICATION IN ACTIVE AND PASSIVE SENTENCE
STRUCTURE IN GLOBE ASIA MAGAZINE" is a linguistic analysis that discusses
aboutthe application of sentence structure in active and passive sentence that converted into
X-Bar analysis. In writing this thesis the writer applied library research by using descriptive
qualitative method by Miles, Huberman and Saldana (2014). The theory that used to find
active and passive sentence refers to X-Bar theory (Noam Chomsky). In active sentence
converted into X-Bar analysis, the “COMPL” completed the subject and predicate as
sentence, then passive sentence converted into X-Bar analysis, the “COMPL” completed the
unknown subject, which means the action is performed by complement itself.
