Soal 21
Anisah : Mom, could I have another cookie, please?
Mother : ..., but don't forget to share it with your sister.
The best completion is ...
A. Of course
B. I don't know
C. But it is so urgent
D. Listen, don't bother her
E. You are kidding, I can't
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: A
Main reasoning: Anisah politely asks for permission (“could I have another cookie, please?”). The mother’s reply continues with a condition (“but don't forget to share it with your sister”), so the first part should be agreement/permission. “Of course” fits naturally: “Of course, but don't forget ...”
Option analysis:
A. Correct: gives permission and matches the following reminder.
B. Illogical; the mother can decide, so “I don't know” does not fit.
C.Unrelated; urgency is not discussed.
D. Wrong context; “don't bother her” does not connect to cookies and sharing.
E. Refusal conflicts with the follow-up instruction to share it.
Logic note: Permission + condition is \( \gt \) refusal + condition for coherence.
Soal 22
Andy : What seems to be the trouble? ...?
Indy : Of course. I need your help. The file cannot be printed out.
The best question to complete Andy's utterance is ...
A. Can I help you
B. What is your trouble
C. Why don't you ask me
D. Could you do me a favour
E. Would you mind helping me
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: A
Main reasoning: Indy responds, “Of course. I need your help ...” This response fits best if Andy’s question is offering help. “Can I help you?” is the most natural offer and matches Indy’s “Of course.”
Option analysis:
A. Correct: an offer of help that logically receives “Of course.”
B. Possible in meaning, but less natural after “What seems to be the trouble?” and less fitting with “Of course.”
C. Sounds blaming; not appropriate as customer-service/helpdesk style.
D. Wrong direction: Andy would be asking Indy for a favour, but Indy needs help.
E. Wrong direction: Andy would be asking Indy to help Andy, not offering help to Indy.
Logic note: Offer of help is \( \gt \) request for help in this context.
Soal 23
Meity : Have you finished writing the article?
Novy : Not yet. But I ... writing it by next month.
The best completion is ...
A. finish
B. would finish
C. have finished
D. will have finished
E. should have finished
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: D
Main reasoning: The phrase “by next month” indicates a future deadline. Novy has not finished now, but expects the action to be completed before that time. This requires the future perfect: “will have finished (writing it) by next month.”
Option analysis:
A. Simple present is incorrect for a future deadline completion statement.
B. “Would finish” suggests conditional/hypothetical; no condition is given.
C. Present perfect implies it is already done now, but Novy says “Not yet.”
D. Correct: future perfect matches “by next month.”
E. “Should have finished” expresses regret about a past deadline, not a future one.
Logic note: Completion time is \( \lt \) next month; future perfect signals this relationship.
Soal 24
Roby : We will have a party for my sister's birthday next Sunday. Would you like to come, Ira?
Ira : I'd love to. It must be a wonderful party.
The underlined expression is used to express ...
A. advice
B. intention
C. invitation
D. satisfaction
E. suggestion
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: C
Main reasoning: The underlined sentence “Would you like to come, Ira?” asks Ira to attend the party. This is a direct invitation, and Ira accepts it (“I'd love to”).
Option analysis:
A. Advice gives guidance, not an invitation to an event.
B. Intention refers to the speaker’s plan; here it is asking someone to join.
C. Correct: it invites Ira to the party.
D. Satisfaction is a feeling after an outcome; not the function of the utterance.
E. Suggestion is possible in some contexts, but this is clearly inviting a specific person to come.
Logic note: A response accepting attendance is \( \gt \) evidence of an invitation rather than advice.
Soal 25
Andi : It seems that you enjoy listening to 'dangdut' music.
Agus : You're right ... I ...
The best completion is ...
A. dislike it.
B. it makes me sick.
C. I hate 'dangdut'.
D. I am annoyed with it.
E. I like 'dangdut' very much.
Answer & Analysis
Correct answer: E
Main reasoning: Andi says Agus enjoys listening to dangdut. Agus begins by agreeing: “You’re right ...” So the completion should confirm enjoyment. Only option E matches agreement and positive preference.
Option analysis:
A. Contradicts “You’re right” and “enjoy.”
B. Contradicts enjoyment; “makes me sick” is negative.
C. Contradicts; hate is the opposite of enjoy.
D. Contradicts; annoyance is negative.
E. Correct: confirms liking strongly and matches the dialogue flow.
Logic note: Agreement plus positive statement is \( \gt \) agreement plus contradiction.
