1.1   Background of the Study
A  text  is  defined  as  the  original  words  of  an  author  or  speaker,  as  opposed  to  a translation,  paraphrase,  commentary,  analyze  or  the  like.  It  means  that  a  text represents  the  idea  of  the  speaker  or  writer  that  can  be  either  written  or  spoken. Written  text  is  identified  as  a  text  which  is  developed  when  a  writer  is  giving meaning through written form, for example short story, novel, newsletter, etc. Written  text  usually  is  used  as  text  to  convey  a
  message.  In  order  to construct  a  good  and  understandable  written  text,  we  can  use  the  systemic functional grammar in our text. In Halliday‟s functional grammar a clause can be divided into Theme and Rheme (new information). Halliday as quoted by Isabel: 1998 statedd that “Theme/Rheme structure is the basic form of the organization of the  clause  as  message”  (Halliday,  1985:  53).  It  means  that  by  using Theme/Rheme can help a writer make a good written text.?????????????????????????????
