Quasi means seemingly or looking almost like. That is, a verb is called quasi-passive when its use almost looks like passive but actually it is active in syntactic and semantic structure. Examples : Rice sells cheap, meaning rice is cheap when it is sold. Honey tastes sweet, meaning honey is sweet when it is tasted. Their surface structure operates on one level which is apparently passive, but their meaning emerges from the deep structure which is actually active in function. I think the significance of quasi-passive verb will come out if we interpret the linguistic phenomenon and make distinction in this way.
Passive is to change as active is to affect.
