Daniel : Perhaps, she will come to your house......... finish the job. A. Before B. After C. For D. Who Jawaban: D. Kenapa jawabannya D = Who? Ini merupakan salah satu fungsi dari kata sambung untuk menghubungkan sub clause. Atau banyak juga yang mengatakan bahwa kalimat tersebut biasanya dihubungkan oleh kata sambung yang disebut dengan ‘subordinating conjunction’. Dengan kata lain, lebih jelasnya bahwa kata penghubung ini berfungsi untuk menghubungkan antara induk kalimat dengan anak kalimat. Jawaban: A. Kenapa jawabannya A = Since? Ini juga masuk pada ‘subordinating conjunction’. Dalam soal diatas kita bisa lihat bahwa Jack menanyakan mengenai berapa lama hubungan Daniel dengan pacarnya. Kemudian Daniel menjawab bahwa dia sudah menjalin hubungan dengan pacarnya itu sejak dia masih duduk di bangku SMP. Jawaban: C. Kenapa jawabannya C = And? Nah, untuk tipe soal diatas, bentuk conjunction atau kata sambung yang digunakan adalah ‘coordinating conjunction’. Dalam hal ini, kita bisa coba lihat bahwa memang antara ‘smart’ dan ‘beautiful’ kedudukannya sama seperti yang sebelumnya ditunjukan oleh pemilihan kata ‘is’, maka dengan demikian pilihan paling cocok adalah ‘and’ Jawaban: D. Kenapa jawabannya D = But Also? Pilihan yang sangat cocok memang ‘but also’ karena itu masuk pada jenis ‘coordinating conjunction’. Hal yang sebaiknya bisa kita pahami dengan baik adalah bahwa ketika dalam sebuah kalimat ada ‘not only’, maka pasti sudah menjadi kesepakatan bahwa hal itu harus diikuti dengan kata ‘but also’. Jawaban: B. Kenapa jawabannya B = both of? Kemudian pilihan yang memang cocok untuk dipilih adalah ‘both of’. Itu karena memang sama seperti ‘not only’ dan ‘but also’, juga harus bisa dipahami bahwa ada rumus coordinating conjunction juga yang populer dan banyak digunakan yakni ‘both of.... and ......”. Nah, jika kita paham akan rumus itu, maka ketika ada pertanyaan yang berhubungan, maka jawabannya tidak akan salah. Jawaban: C. Kenapa jawabannya C = As long as? Kata ‘as long as’ ini memiliki makna tertentu yaitu ‘asalkan atau ‘selama’. Nah, maksud dari kalimat diatas adalah ketika Jak bertanya mengenai apa yang bisa dia lakukan agar dia (seseorang yang tidak disebutkan) bisa memaafkannya. Kemudian, Daniel menjawab bahwa Jack pasti akan dimaafkan asalakan mau minta maaf dan menjaga janji di kemudian hari. Jawaban: D. Kenapa jawabannya D = However? ‘however’ ini sebetulnya menjadi salah satu bentuk kata sambung ‘conjunction’ yang menyatakan keterangan. Dengan kata lain, conjunction seperti ini biasanya disebut juga dengan ‘conjuntive adverb’. Ada banyak sekali jenis ‘adverb’ yang bisa digunakan memang beberapa diantara yang lainnya adalah ‘morever, likewise, otherwise, next, after all, dan yang lainnya. Jawaban: B. Kenapa jawabannya B = In fact? Nah, ini merupakan salah satu pilihan yang memang sangat cocok untuk digunakan karena memang sesuai dengan apa yang seharusnya diisi pada kolom titik tersebut. Ini masih masuk juga pada jenis conjunction yang memang menunjukan keterangan dari apa yang disebutkan atau diungkapkan dalam kalimat tersebut.

Jawaban: A. Kenapa jawabannya A = In order to? Nah, ini menjadi pilihan yang tepat juga karena memang arti dari ‘in order to’ itu adalah ‘agar’. Sebetulnya, selain itu, kita juga bisa mengungkapkan ‘in order that’, namun karena di dalam soal diatas ada verb pertama setelah titik-titik, maka yang paling cocok untuk digunakan adalah ‘in order to’. Jawaban: B. Kenapa jawabannya B = After? Jika melihat soal demikian, maka cara terbaik adalah dengan mengetahui beberapa arti dalam pilihan ganda yang tersedia. Selain itu, sebaiknya memang kita bisa memahami dengan seksama juga logika dari kalimat tersebut. Dari kalimat nomor dua itu, maka jawaban yang paling benar berdasarkan kalimat diatas adalah ‘after 1. Sammy had someone handle her port ... he went to abroad. a. when b. before c. whenever 2. A power failure occured, ... the lamps went out. a. then b. so c. for 3. I forgot my coat, ... i got very cold a. so b. as a result c. for 4. It was raining, ...
