Hum Key Words : Teks Bacaan, Kemampuan Siswa Dalam pengajaran bahasa inggris di SMA, Bentuk teks menjadi materi yang harus diajarkan kepada siswa. Ada banyak jenis teks. Report teks, Narrative teks, Analytical exposition teks, Spoof text, Hortatory exposition teks adalah jenis Teks Bacaan. Kebanyakan siswa masih tidak memahami simpel genre yang diajarkan oleh guru khususnya di Kelas Sebelas di SMA 2 Kudus.Mereka masih bingung bagaimana menganalisis struktur umum dengan benar. Banyak dari mereka tidak bisa membedakan tiap struktur umum pada genre.Pembatasan pada pengetahuan genre membuat mereka tidak dapat mengenali jenis – jenis genre dan siswa masih kesulitan untuk memahami jenis – jenis genre.Berdasarkan latar belakang masalah diatas, penulis ingin melakukan penelitian dengan judul “Kemampuan Mengidentifikasi Struktur Umum pada Teks Bacaan pada siswa Kelas Sebelas pada SMA 2 Kudus Tahun Pelajaran 2013/2014”. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui kemampuan menganalisis Struktur Umum pada Teks Bacaan Siswa kelas Sebelas di SMA 2 Kudus Tahun Pelajaran 2013/2014 dan apa kesulitan siswa dalam menganalisis Struktur Umum pada Teks Bacaan Siswa Kelas Sebelas di SMA 2 Kudus Tahun Pelajaran 2013/2014.
