Apabila kata kerja nya kalimat positif adalah V1 plus “-s”, maka QT-nya “don’t”. Jika kata kerjanya V1 plus “-s”, QT-nya “doesn’t”.

Sesi kedua, disebut juga sebagai sesi grammar, menguji kecakapan Anda terhadap standar formal aturan penulisan/grammar bahasa Inggris. Banyak aturan dapat berterima dalam percakapan (spoken) tapi tidak dalam penulisan (written). Anda harus menggunakan cara yang paling ekonomis (hemat waktu) dan matang (dengan baik) dan strategi yang terbaik dalam menjawab semua soal dalam sesi ini.
Skill apa yang harus Anda persiapkan? Anda harus betul-betul mengetahui aturan grammar yang benar dengan baik agar Anda dapat dengan cepat mengetahui jawaban mana yang tidak sesuai dengan grammar yang formal.
Pendekatan apa yang harus Anda gunakan untuk menjawab soal Part A - Structure? - Ketahuilah bahwa petunjuk soal meminta Anda mengenali standar penulisan bahasa Inggris yang formal. - Ketahuilah bahwa Anda akan memilih satu jawaban yang paling benar untuk melengkapi jawaban. Boleh saja diantara beberapa jawaban bisa melengkapi kalimat tapi hanya ada satu yang paling benar.
Untuk pertanyaan Part A, Anda harus: 1. Membaca semua kalimat, dan mencoba memasukkan pilihan jawaban yang tersedia. Misal masukkan terlebih dahulu pilihan jawaban A. 2. Jika jawaban A tidak benar, cobalah untuk memikirkan kenapa tidak benar. 3. Jika Anda sudah mengetahui kenapa jawaban A salah maka silahkan lanjut ke pilihan B, C, dan D. 4. Jika masih saja tidak yakin, cobalah untuk mengingat rumus dari kalimat tersebut. 5. Jika Anda tidak bisa mendapatkan jawaban yang paling benar, eliminasilah terlebih dahulu jawaban-jawaban yang jelas salah dan cobalah untuk menebak. Contoh: During the Daytona 500, the lead car ___________, leaving the others far behind. A. forwarded rapidly B. advanced rapidly C. advanced forward rapidly D. advanced in a rapidly manner Analisa soal: Hal yang pertama Anda lakukan yaitu mencoba memasukkan jawaban A pada soal. Anda dapat mengetahui bahwa jawaban A salah karena kalimat soal membutuhkan kata kerja sementara jawaban A tidak memiliki kata kerja. Jika Anda yakin bahwa kata kerja advanced pada jawaban B sudah sesuai untuk mengisi kalimat di atas maka Anda tidak perlu lagi ke pilihan C dan D. Tapi jika anda kurang yakin Anda boleh lanjut ke pilhan C. Anda melihat bahwa jawaban C berlebih-lebihan karena terdapat dua kata yang mepunyai makna sama. Advance telah bermakna move forward (maju). Sementara jawaban D kata rapidly (adverb) sebelum manner (noun) harusnya rapid (adjective) untuk membentuk
suatu phrase (gabungan kata) yang benar. Ingat rumus (Adjective + Noun) bukan (Adverb + Noun).
Pendekatan apa yang harus Anda gunakan untuk menjawab soal Part B - Written Expression? - Lagi, ingatlah bahwa Anda sedang mencari penulisan bahasa Inggris yang benar. - Ingatlah bahwa Anda sedang mencari kata atau frasa (gabungan kata) yang salah, yang mesti diubah agar kalimat menjadi benar.
Untuk pertanyaan Part B, Anda harus: 1. Membaca seluruh kalimat soal. 2. Jika Anda tidak menemukan jawaban yang salah dengan cepat. Maka ingatlah rumus-rumus yang Anda telah pelajari dan pastikanlah pilihan-pilihan jawaban yang benar. Contoh Soal I: In the united states, there are much holidays throughout the year. A
B
C
D
Analisa jawaban: Ketika Anda membaca kalimat secara keseluruhan Anda dapat mengetahui dengan cepat bahwa much tidak sesuai dengan kata holidays. Much menandakan uncountable noun (benda tak bisa dihitung) sementara holidays dengan jelas merupakan kata benda yang bisa dihitung (countable noun). Contoh Soal II: Tomatoes grows all year long in Florida A
B C
D
Analisa jawaban: Jika Anda menjawab dengan terburu-buru, hanya dengan melihat pilihan jawaban Anda bisa sja terkecoh dan memilih jawaban A dengan asumsi bahwa tomatoes (plural/jamak) harusnya tomato (singular/tunggal) karena kata kerja grows berbentuk tunggal. Tapi jika Anda membaca seluruh kalimat Anda akan mendapati bahwa konteks kalimat tidak mendiskusikan tentang satu tomat. Olehnya jawaban yang Anda pilih yaitu jawaban B. Grows seharusnya grow.

Berapakah peluang Kris hanya mendapatkan satu A ? (dari Test masuk UI 2010 (kode 308)) Jawab: P (Matematika dan Bahasa) = 0,60 x 0,70 = 0,42 P (Matematika saja) = 0,60 – 0,42 = 0,18 P (Bahasa saja) = 0,70 – 0,42 = 0,28 P (Matematika saja ATAU Bahasa saja) = 0,18 + 0,28 = 0,46 (Selesai). Catatan: Soal semacam ini jarang ditemui oleh anak-anak SMA. Para siswa lebih takut lagi karena sistem nilai menggunakan A, B, C, D, E. Sementara anak-anak SMA sering mengenal nilai dengan bilangan dari 1 sampai dengan 100. Padahal sistem nilai di atas tidak berpengaruh ke inti masalah. Lengkap sudah soal di atas menguji nyali anak-anak SMA. Soal di atas juga menguji kemampuan anak-anak memahami konsep peluang sekaligus menghubungkannya dengan konsep himpunan (lebih bagus lagi dengan konsep logika). Paman APIQ mengusulkan agar kita memanfaatkan diagram Venn untuk memahami permasalah di atas. Kemudian menguji berbagai macam pertanyaan yang mungkin. Dengan membayangkan diagram Venn, himpunan M = P (Matematika) = 0,60 himpunan B = P (Bahasa) = 0,70 himpunan irisan M dan B = P (Matematika) x P (Bahasa) = 0,60 x 0,70 = 0,42 Berapakah peluang Kris hanya mendapatkan satu A? Hanya mendapatkan satu A maksudnya adalah matematika dapat A dan bahasa inggris tidak atau bahasa inggris dapat A dan matematika tidak. Masih dengan memanfaatkan diagram Venn biasa, P (matematika saja) = P (matematika) – P (irisan M dan B) = 0,60 – 0,42 = 0,18 P (bahasa saja) = P (bahasa) – P (irisan M dan B) = 0,70 – 0,42 = 0,28 Jadi, peluang hanya mendapatkan satu A = P (matematika saja) atau P (bahasa saja) = 0,18 + 0,28 = 0,46 (Selesai).
Setelah berlatih beberapa kali dan mengamati diagram Venn maka kita juga dapat menghitung langsung, Peluang hanya mendapat satu A = P (matematika) + P (bahasa) – 2 [P (matematika) x P (bahasa)] = 0,60 + 0,70 – 2.(0,60)(0,70) = 1,30 – 2.(0,42) = 1,30 – 0,84 = 0,46 (Selesai). Mari berlatih dengan beberapa pertanyaan lain sesuai saran Paman APIQ. a. Berapakah peluang mendapat nilai A dua-duanya? Jawab: P (matematika) x P (bahasa) = 0,60 x 0,70 = 0,42 b. Berapakah peluang mendapat nilai A setidaknya satu? Jawab: P (matematika) + P (bahasa) – P (matematika) x P (bahasa) = 0,60 + 0,70 – 0,42 = 0,88 c. Berapakah peluang tidak mendapat nilai A sama sekali? Jawab: 1,00 – P (nilai A setidaknya satu) = 1,00 – 0,88 = 0,12 Bagaimana menurut Anda?
