The following text is for Questions 29 to 31.
One day, a man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers. He wanted to send it to his mother who lived far in another town through a delivery company. Meanwhile, he was looking at a sad young girl who was sitting in front of the flower shop. He asked her what was wrong, and she replied, “I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother, but my money is not enough.” The man smiled and said, “Come on in with me. I’ll buy you a rose.” He bought the little girl a rose, and he ordered for his own mother flowers, too.
After buying a rose flower for the girl, the man offered the girl a ride to her home. She said, “Yes, please! You can take me to my mother.” She directed him to a cemetery. The girl placed the rose on her mother’s fresh grave. Knowing the girl’s mother had died, the man realized that he must show his love to his mother while she was still alive. Then the man returned to the flower shop. He canceled the flower delivery order, picked up the rose flowers and drove to reach his mother’s house.

Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis
Jawaban: A
Analisis: Di akhir bacaan ditegaskan: “he must show his love to his mother while she was still alive.” Artinya pelajaran utamanya adalah menunjukkan kasih sayang kepada ibu selagi masih ada, bukan sekadar membeli bunga. Jadi pilihan paling tepat adalah A. show our loves to our mothers.

Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis
Jawaban: A
Analisis: Kalimat awal paragraf kedua menyebutkan: “After buying a rose flower for the girl, the man offered the girl a ride to her home.” Jadi tindakan pertama setelah membelikan mawar adalah menawarkan/mengantar pulang. Maka jawaban yang tepat adalah A.
31. The main idea of the first paragraph is ....
| A. a sad girl was thinking of her mother |
| B. a man helped a girl by buying her a flower |
| C. a girl needed a man to deliver her a flower |
| D. a man bought a flower for a girl |
Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis
Jawaban: B
Analisis: Paragraf pertama menceritakan inti kejadian: seorang pria melihat gadis sedih yang tidak cukup uang untuk membeli mawar, lalu pria itu berkata akan membelikan mawar dan benar-benar membelinya. Fokusnya adalah tindakan membantu gadis itu melalui membeli bunga. Karena itu, gagasan utamanya paling sesuai dengan B. a man helped a girl by buying her a flower (lebih lengkap daripada D yang hanya menyatakan membeli tanpa menonjolkan unsur “helped”).
