a. is
b. were
c. are
d. was
Jawaban yang benar adalah “c. are”.
Dalam soal ini kamu diminta untuk memilih jawaban yang tepat untuk melengkapi kalimat soal sesuai dengan tense. Tense yang digunakan dalam soal adalah Present Continuous Tense karena terdapat adverb of time (keterangan waktu) yaitu “today” dan juga verb -ing “making”.
Present Continuous Tense adalah bentuk kata kerja yang digunakan untuk menyatakan aksi yang sedang berlangsung sekarang.
Rumus Present Continuous Tense:
(+) Subjek + to be (am/is/are) + verb (-ing)
(-) Subjek + to be (am/is/are) + not + verb (-ing)
(?) To be (am/is/are) + subjek + verb (-ing) + ?
“Am”, ”are”, dan “is” merupakan “to be” present. “To be” merupakan auxiliary verb (kata kerja bantu) yang dibutuhkan untuk membentuk sebuah kalimat yang memang membutuhkannya.
Penggunaan “to be” present adalah sebagai berikut:
Subject ————-> To be
I —————-> am
You ————> are
We ————-> are
They ———–> are
He —————> is
She ————–> is
It —————–> is
Selain itu, subjek yang jamak (plural) menggunakan to be “are” sedangkan subjek tunggal (singular) menggunakan to be “is”.
Soal:
“My mother and my sister … making cake. Today is my little brother birthday.” (Ibuku dan saudara perempuanku… membuat kue. Hari ini adalah hari ulang tahun adik laki-lakiku.)
Bentuk kalimat tersebut adalah kalimat positif (+). Subjeknya adalah “my mother and my sister” yang merupakan subjek jamak (plural) sehingga “to be” yang tepat adalah “are”.
Kalimatnya menjadi “My mother and my sister are making cake. Today is my little brother birthday.” (Ibuku dan saudara perempuanku sedang membuat kue. Hari ini adalah hari ulang tahun adik laki-lakiku.)
Oleh karena itu, jawaban yang benar adalah “c. are”.
