Soal 21

Ina : Why are you sleepy in class?

Ines : Do I look sleepy, Na? I am not sleepy, but I have a painful stomach ache.

Ina : You should go to the doctor. Come on I’ll accompany you.

The underlined words express …

A. disagreement

B. satisfaction

C. obligation

D. offering

E. advice

Answer & Analysis

Correct Answer: E (advice)

Key meaning: “You should …” is commonly used to give a suggestion or recommendation. Here Ina recommends that Ines see a doctor because she has a painful stomachache.

A Incorrect. Ina is not rejecting Ines’s statement; she responds supportively.

B Incorrect. There is no expression of being pleased/satisfied.

C Incorrect. “Obligation” would be stronger with “must/have to.” “Should” is softer, mainly advice.

D Incorrect as the asked part. The underlined sentence is advice; the next sentence “I’ll accompany you” is an offer, but it is not underlined.

E Correct. It clearly gives advice.


Soal 22

“Sure, I will.”

From the underlined words we know that the first speaker feels … her daughter.

A. proud of

B. angry with

C. worried about

D. disappointed at

E. doubtful about

Answer & Analysis

Correct Answer: A (proud of)

Key meaning: The speaker invites someone to watch because her daughter will be on TV. Saying “She always makes me happy” signals positive feelings and admiration; in this context, the strongest matching option is being proud of her daughter’s achievement.

A Correct. A parent typically feels proud when their child appears on TV and brings happiness.

B Incorrect. Nothing indicates anger.

C Incorrect. Nothing indicates concern or fear.

D Incorrect. The sentence is clearly positive, not disappointment.

E Incorrect. There is no uncertainty.


Soal 23

A : Have you heard that uncle Joe will come next week?

B : Oh, really? When did he tell you?

A : Last week.

The underlined sentence is used to express …

A. happiness

B. pleasure

C. surprise

D. enjoyment

E. curiosity

Answer & Analysis

Correct Answer: C (surprise)

Key meaning: “Oh, really?” is a common spontaneous reaction to unexpected information. It signals that the speaker is surprised, then follows up with a question for details.

A Incorrect. Happiness would be expressed more directly (e.g., “That’s great!”).

B Incorrect. Pleasure is not necessarily indicated.

C Correct. It is a typical surprise marker.

D Incorrect. Enjoyment refers to having fun, not reacting to news.

E Less accurate. Curiosity is shown by “When did he tell you?”, but the underlined phrase itself is primarily surprise.


Soal 24

“What a beautiful voice. She is a talented singer,”

“She … since she was a child.”

A. sang

B. sings

C. is singing

D. had been singing

E. has been singing

Answer & Analysis

Correct Answer: E (has been singing)

Grammar focus: The phrase “since she was a child” indicates an action that started in the past and continues up to the present. The best tense is present perfect continuous: “has been singing.”

A Incorrect. Simple past (“sang”) does not show continuity up to now.

B Incorrect. Simple present (“sings”) states a general habit but ignores the “since…” duration emphasis.

C Incorrect. Present continuous is for an action happening right now, not since childhood.

D Incorrect. Past perfect continuous requires a past reference point (e.g., “before 2010”), not a present evaluation.

E Correct. It matches “since” + continuing action.


Soal 25

Mary introduced me to her former lecturer … She married after she had graduated.

A. of whom

B. whose

C. of which

D. whom

E. who

Answer & Analysis

Correct Answer: E (who)

Grammar focus: We need a relative pronoun to refer to a person (“her former lecturer”) and to connect the clause that gives additional information. The most natural form is: “Mary introduced me to her former lecturer who married after she had graduated.”

A (of whom) Incorrect here. “Of whom” is used to show possession/relationship (e.g., “the lecturer, the name of whom…”), not to introduce a simple descriptive clause.

B (whose) Incorrect. “Whose” must be followed by a noun (e.g., “whose husband…”), not a verb directly.

C (of which) Incorrect. “Which” is for things, not people.

D (whom) Less appropriate. “Whom” is used as an object in the relative clause, but here the clause needs a subject (“… married …”), so “who” is required.

E (who) Correct. “Who” functions as the subject of the relative clause.
