D. Jika ada soal error recognition, maka perhatikan kalimat yang terdapat kata "If", karena kemungkinan besar itu adalah soal tentang conditional sentence. Pada soal ini, Conditional sentence yang digunakan adalah type II. Jadi seharusnya, I wanted to go.
A. Untuk menyatakan keinginan dengan bahasa yang halus kita menggunakan frasa: I would like to ...
B. Kalau ada kalimat yang disertai keterangan waktu "Every+time", every week; every day; every weekend dsb, maka tensesnya harus simple present tense. Sedangkan di soal (B) itu simple future tense.
B. Conjunction/kata sambung Not Only pasangannya adalah But also.
B. Kata "better" seharusnya diikuti "than". Jadi yang tepat dalam kalimat tersebut adalah "best"
A. Seharusnya Could you give me.
C. Jika than, seharusnya bukan good tapi better.
B. Whom hanya digunakan untuk objek manusia. Kalau kaset ya which/that.
B. pada kalimat terakhir terdapat deadline yaitu "Before Midnight"

C. By Calling Uni. Imron minta nomor HandPhone Uni tujuannya untuk memberi tahu Uni alamatnya dengan cara menelphon/calling.
A. Jika ada kata kerja jatuh setelah auxiliary verb (kata kerja bantu) seperti can, may, will dkk, maka ia harus berbentuk infinitive atau gampangannya kata kerja dasar/Verb 1.

D. Kata yang jatuh setelah possessive pronoun atau kata ganti kepemilikan seperti my, your, our dkk, pasti berupa kata benda (noun). Salah satu ciri kata benda itu bisa diberi S jamak. Activity kalau dibentuk jamak menjadi Activities.
D. Apa yang dipesan oleh Sheila adalah yang tidak dipesan oleh Dinah.
B. Kita tidak perlu pusing dengan artinya. Jika pertanyaanya tentang rencana/plan yang akan dilakukan pada masa yang akan datang (lihat kalimat: it will be...), maka jawabannya tentu menggunakan kalimat dengan waktu akan datang. Dari 4 alternative jawaban yang menunjukkan pekerjaan yang akan dilakukan adalah B. We are going to go to Anyer = we will go to Anyer.
C. Jika kita melihat pada alternative jawaban yang ada kalimatnya sama hanya tenses yang berbeda. so ini pasti pertanyaan tentang tenses. Perhatikan tense pada kalimat pertanyaan: "My friends and I loved (V 2/past)" ketika di sambung dengan conjuntion/kata sambung maka tense nya harus sama. Dari 4 jawaban yang ada C lah yang bertense past.
A. It's too small to loosen (terlalu kecil untuk mengendurkan/melepaskan..) Ungkapan yang tepat ketika sebuah usaha dinilai tidak bisa. "Tidak, itu terlalu ..."
D. Paragraf kedua berbicara tentang "increase" (lihat pada kalimat pertama, karena paling sering main idea ada pada kalimat pertama, dan kalimat seterusnya adalah pengembangannya)

C. Right on schedule maksudnya adalah tepat. Dikatakan tepat karena pembelian pesawat baru seiring dengan semakin meningkatnya penumpang.
D. Dalam kalimat "arranges the menu and ..." terdapat conjunction and. Itu artinya kalimat berikutnya harus pararel/sama kedudukannya. Kalau sebelumnya V ing maka kalimat berikutnya harus V ing juga. Kalau kalimat sebelumnya menggungakan arranges maka jawaban yang tepat adalah testes.
D. Percakapan antara operator agen travel dengan Olga. Kalimat "Oh yes, Miss Olga. I hope you and your family will have a wonderful time." Itu artinya operator sudah tahu tujuan travel Olga dan tidak ada masalah dengan agen travelnya.
B. Treat (mentraktir). Kenapa kamu tidak mentraktir saya? saya lapar.
B. To remind the sales staff about their annual meeting (lihat subject/perihal suratnya).
D. Dalam surat tersebut pengirim mengutarakan keinginannya: "I want everyone to be ready with ideas, strategies, and sales forecast for next year." Jadi yang harus disiapkan adalah yang digaris bawahi.
A. Sleepy (mengantuk).
C. The text tell us ... itu adalah pertanyaan tentang topic dari sebuah bacaan. Topik adalah kata yang sering keluar dalam text. Dalam hal ini adalah kata Mecca. Dan yang paling tepat adalah the city of Mecca.
D. Sesuatu itu menjadi penting ketika ia sesuatu yang suci, sakral dsb.

B. What a lovely dress (wow, baju yang indah) untuk menunjukkan kegaguman, kita bisa menggunakan format: what + adjective/kata sifat + noun.

C. Dari 4 alternative jawaban, sebenarnya tidak satupun yang benar-benar merepresentasikan main idea dari paragraf 2. Namun dari sekian jawaban yang ada C adalah yang paling mendekati.
D. Jelas pada paragraf 1 bahwa ia menjadi reporter.
A. Famous artinya terkenal, sinonim dari well know; popular; distinguished.
D. Jika kalimatnya have/has been V ing maka keterangan waktunya hanya for dan since. Untuk membedakannya, kalau for (selama) setelahnya pasti jumlah waktu seperti five years, 3 days, a week. Sedangkan since (sejak) itu adalah waktu tertentu, misalnya yesterday, 3 hours ago (ini bukan jumlah waktu tapi waktu tertentu, yaitu 3 jam yang lalu).
D. Kata kerja yang jatuh setelah "to" tidak boleh berbentuk Verb ing, tidak boleh ditambah "S" seperti verifies, apalagi dibentuk V 2 seperti verified.
B. Lulusan SMK yang paling banyak (most) mendapatkan pekerjaan adalah pada tahun 2000 (lihat grafik dengan bagan yang berwarna biru).
A. Judul grafiknya adalah SMK "graduates", maka jika tidak a, c pasti d. Tapi data jenis kelamin dan status perkawinan tidak ada dalam kolom keterangan. Jadi pasti A.
D. it adalah benda yang kembali kepada lantai. Jadi tidak mungkin jawabannya adalah a dan b karena keduanya aktif, tidak mungkin lantai mengepel/membersihkan, yang logis adalah dibersihkan. sehingga harus bentuk pasif, antara c dan d. melihat soalnya menggunakan bentuk past (was), maka jawabannya pasti past tense juga.
A. kata sambung yang tepat adalah "meskipun". Namun meskipun inspite of dan despite juga berarti meskipun, mereka tidak dapat digunakan dalam kalimat dengan susunan S+P, karena mereka hanya digunakan dalam bentuk phrase. Misal, Inspite of rich, she is not proud.
A. lebih giat (harder) berasal dari kata sifat hard (satu suku kata). 1 suku kata tinggal menambahi -er saja.
D. who setelahnya pasti kata kerja. Sedangkan yang dimaksud kalimat tersebut adalah yang rumahnya, maka jawabannya pasti whose. Misal, yang anaknya bekerja di Singapure, yang mobilnya beroda 2 dsb.
B. Dita dan Dina sama-sama suka film tersebut, maka kalimat yang benar adalah so do I, karena like di sini adalah kata kerja (suka) buka kata sifat (seperti).
