The branch of grammar that studies sentence structure is syntax. Sentences consisting of subject (S), predicate (P), object (O), complement (Pel), and adverb (K) are structural types of syntax. The pattern of sentence function in each collection of short stories is different. The language in a short story usually contains various sentences such as description sentences, dialog sentences, and narrative sentences. A good sentence is a sentence that can express a complete thought or can reveal complete information. The purpose of this research is not only to analyze the sentence function pattern but also to discuss the ineffectiveness of the sentence in relation to the reading resources of grade XI SMA. There are two types of approaches in this research, namely descriptive qualitative methodological approach and syntactic theoretical approach. The method used in this research is the simak catat and padan method. The presentation methods used are formal and informal. The results of this study found 9 patterns of sentence functions, namely, SPPel, SPO, SP, SPK, SPOK, SPOPel, SPOPelK, SPPelK, and SPPelO. Although syntactic functions are not always filled in every sentence, at least the Subject and Predicate must be present because they are interrelated. In this study, ineffectiveness has also been found due to double subjects, use of conjunctions, ambiguity, use of synonyms, and waste of words. This makes the reader have difficulty in understanding the sentence. The benefit of this research is that it can find out the use of sentence function patterns in short stories including the relationship between elements such as subjects, predicates, objects, and clauses. So that it can produce a good and correct sentence structure. In addition, this research also presents the results of an overview of the variations in sentence structure and the importance of using good and correct grammar in its use to understand a text.

This study investigates the effect of the Team Word-Webbing technique on reading comprehension among tenth-grade students at MAN Koto Baru, Dharmasraya. Reading comprehension is critical for language acquisition and academic success, as it encompasses the ability to extract and interpret meaning from text. Despite its importance, many students struggle with reading comprehension due to various factors including limited vocabulary and insufficient engagement. To address these issues, the study employed a quantitative experimental design, using a quasi-experimental approach with an experimental group and a control group. The research involved a pre-test and post-test assessment to measure reading comprehension levels before and after the implementation of the Team Word-Webbing technique. The experimental group was taught using this technique, which involves organizing ideas visually to enhance understanding, while the control group received traditional instruction. The sample consisted of two classes selected through purposive sampling, with data analyzed using t-tests to compare outcomes. Results indicated that the Team Word-Webbing technique significantly improved reading comprehension compared to conventional methods. The experimental group demonstrated higher post-test scores, with statistical analysis revealing a significant difference (p < 0.05). This suggests that Team Word-Webbing enhances students' ability to understand and retain reading material by facilitating better organization of ideas and active engagement. In conclusion, the study supports the effectiveness of Team Word-Webbing as an instructional strategy to improve reading comprehension. This technique not only aids in comprehension but also promotes active learning and student interaction, making it a valuable tool for educators aiming to enhance reading skills in the classroom.
