Number 17
Jawaban untuk soal ini adalah “show”.
Soal ini meminta untuk dilengkapi bagian rumpang nomor 17 dengan bentuk kata kerja yang sesuai.
Untuk menjawab soalnya, perhatikan kalimat 4 di paragraf akhir berikut:
“TV shows and movies about the future often (17. show) _____ everybody in a uniform of some kind.”
Arti
“Acara TV dan film tentang masa depan sering kali (17. menunjukkan) _____ semua orang memakai sejenis seragam.”
Kalimat tersebut ditulis memakai Simple Present Tense karena ada kata keterangan ‘often’ (sering kali) untuk menyatakan kebiasaan yang dilakukan acara TV dan film saat ‘menunjukkan’ pakaian di masa depan.
Oleh karena itu, bagian rumpang cocok diisi oleh kata ‘menunjukkan’ mengikuti rumus Simple Present Tense berikut:
(+) S + V1(-s/-es) + O/C.
S (subjek)-nya adalah ‘TV shows and movies about the future’ dan kata kerja bentuk pertama (V1) yang dipakai adalah “menunjukkan” (show).
Karena ‘TV shows and movies about the future’ termasuk subjek plural atau jamak yang menunjukkan jumlah acara TV dan film ada banyak (lebih dari 1), maka kata ‘show’ ditulis apa adanya tanpa perubahan atau tambahan akhiran huruf apapun.
Itu tandanya, bagian rumpang nomor 17 bisa diisi oleh kata ‘show’ dan berikut kalimat lengkapnya:
“TV shows and movies about the future often show everybody in a uniform of some kind” artinya “Acara TV dan film tentang masa depan sering kali menunjukkan semua orang memakai sejenis seragam”.
