D. them

Jawaban: A. it

Analisis: Kalimat “A lion is very strong and here are some facts about ....” membutuhkan kata ganti benda/hewannya (bukan orang). Karena “a lion” merujuk pada satu hewan, kata ganti yang tepat adalah it, bukan he/her (untuk orang/jenis kelamin) atau them (jamak).


\(42\). ....

A. grew
B. grows
C. grown
D. growing
Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis

Jawaban: B. grows

Analisis: Teks memaparkan fakta umum (general truth), sehingga bentuk yang tepat adalah simple present. Subjeknya “The lion’s fur” (tunggal), maka verba yang benar adalah grows. Pilihan grew (lampau), grown (past participle), dan growing (gerund/participle) tidak sesuai dengan struktur kalimat fakta umum.


\(43\). ....

A. kinds of paws
B. kinds of teeth
C. kind of tooth
D. kind of paw
Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis

Jawaban: B. kinds of teeth

Analisis: Setelah titik-titik, kalimat berikutnya menyebutkan “They are canine, carnassials, and regular teeth...”. Jadi yang dimaksud adalah tiga jenis gigi. Maka frasa yang tepat adalah kinds of teeth (jamak). Pilihan tentang paws tidak nyambung dengan “canine, carnassials, and regular teeth”, sedangkan “kind of tooth” hanya tunggal sehingga tidak cocok dengan “three different”.


\(44\). Arrange the following words into a good sentence!

The play ground – is learning – kites – Matthew – to fly – in – today

A. \(4-2-3-5-6-1-7\)
B. \(4-2-6-3-5-1-7\)
C. \(4-2-5-3-6-1-7\)
D. \(4-2-6-5-3-1-7\)
Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis

Jawaban: C. \(4-2-5-3-6-1-7\)

Analisis: Susunan kalimat Inggris yang wajar adalah: Subject + Verb + Infinitive + Object + Place + Time. Subjeknya Matthew lalu is learning, dilanjutkan to fly sebagai infinitive, objeknya kites, tempatnya in the play ground, dan waktu today. Itu persis membentuk urutan \(4-2-5-3-6-1-7\).


\(45\). Arrange these sentences into a good paragraph!

\(1\). Then just before we went to the airport we stopped at the Bugis street.

\(2\). On last day we had lunch on the Orchard road.

\(3\). On second day we went to the Merlion statue.

\(4\). Last year my friend and I went to Singapore.

\(5\). On the first day we went to the universal studio.

\(6\). There we bought some gifts for friends.

\(7\). We took a lot of pictures around the famous statue.

\(8\). We enjoyed a lot of rides from famous movies.

A. \(4-5-3-7-8-2-1-6\)
B. \(4-5-7-3-8-2-1-6\)
C. \(4-5-8-3-7-2-1-6\)
D. \(4-5-2-3-7-8-1-6\)
Lihat Jawaban dan Analisis

Jawaban: C. \(4-5-8-3-7-2-1-6\)

Analisis: Paragraf yang baik diawali pengantar umum: \(4\) (pergi ke Singapura). Lalu urutan waktu: \(5\) “On the first day...” dan logis diikuti \(8\) karena menikmati wahana (masih tentang Universal Studio). Setelah itu \(3\) “On second day...” diikuti \(7\) karena foto-foto berkaitan dengan Merlion statue. Kemudian \(2\) “On last day...” sebagai penutup rangkaian hari. Terakhir, \(1\) “just before we went to the airport...” dan kalimat \(6\) harus menempel pada \(\,1\,\) karena “There” merujuk ke Bugis street (tempat membeli oleh-oleh).
