CHAPTER IV ANALYSIS AND FINDINGS
4.1 Data Analysis
As it had mentioned in the third chapter, the researcher carry on the field research. In this analysis, the data was collected from grade IX of “Bimbel Medica” learners at Jl.
Iskandar Muda no.19A Medan. Researcher had taken 30 learners randomly from three classes. Each class consisted of 10 learners. In testing their ability, researcher gave 30
questions.
The researcher gave a multiple choice test, which was focused on elliptical sentences. This test consisted of 30 questions, each of elliptical sentences had certain
42 questions; for positive elliptical, it had ten questions of multiple choice test, negative
elliptical had ten questions of multiple choice test and opposite elliptical had ten questions of multiple choice test. The researcher put the questions at random as it can
be seen below.

First, it was needed to tabulate the scores of learners’ data. In scoring the test, the researcher used the formula of Nurkancana and Sumartana 1986
technique of data analysis : The formula:
N =
X ′
X .Y
x 100
N : the outcomes of the learners’ answer
X’: the result of correct answer
X : the number of learners
Y : the number of question
43 In finding the average level of learners competency, the researcher categorize the
score into five levels, they are as follows:
Excellent 91-100
Very Good 80-89
Good 71-79
Bad 60-70
Very Bad 0-59

could answer positive elliptical construction questions correctly. The score is 76, it means that the ability of the learners in mastering positive construction question is
“good”. Table 4.4 The Result of Negative Elliptical Construction Pre Test

83 rounded From the table and the result above, researcher had known most of the learners
who can answer the opposite elliptical construction questions correctly. The score is 83, it means that the ability of the learners in mastering opposite elliptical
construction question is “very good”. Moreover, researcher can said that the learners
find it more easier in answer opposite elliptical construction question than other type of questions.
For the purpose, it is first needed to tabulate the scores of each student firstly. In scoring the test, the researcher used the formula of Nurkancana and Sumartana
1986 as follows : X = R x 100
49
N
In which: X = Individual score
R = The number of correct answers N = Number of questions
Table 4.8 are arranged based on the result of scoring the test and on the highest to the smallest to distribute learners’ scores in sequence as follows.

The scores of the learners were converted to percentages by dividing the total correct answer with the number of all items and multiplied by 100 that is:
Outcomes of the scoreN =
total of correct answer X ′
number of student X . number of question Y
x 100

The percentage of the whole score is 79,3. This percentage implies that the learners are able to answer elliptical Construction question.
