TIPS:
Ketika dalam percakapan melibatkan dua kata benda,
sering kali jawaban dibuat mengecoh.
Perhatikan baik-baik siapa/apa yang melakukan dan
siapa/apa yang menjadi objek.
Seringkali kata kerja yang digunakan adalah
causative verb (Kata kerja yang membuat objek melakukan sesuatu)
Perhatikan contoh berikut:
Santoso got Suminem to close the door.
Pertanyaannya siapa yang menutup pintu?
Jawabannya adalah Suminem.
Atau, jawaban dibentuk dengan menempatkan objek
dalam audio menjadi subjek kalimat dalam pilihan jawaban.
Perhatikan contoh berikut:
Sari gave a cake to Joko.
Jawaban bisa dibuat menjadi seperti ini:
Joko received the cake.
