Halo, kakak bantu jawab ya.

Jawaban nomor 3: cast

Soal memerintahkan untuk melengkapi bagian rumpang nomor 3 dengan Past Continuous Tense atau Simple Past Tense.

- Past Continuous Tense digunakan untuk menyatakan kejadian yang sedang berlangsung di masa lampau.

- Simple Past Tense digunakan untuk menyatakan kejadian yang terjadi di masa lampau.

Bagian rumpang nomor 3 adalah "Captain Carl Moore 2. was working about 10 miles off the coast of Key West, Fla., last month when he 3. _____ (cast) his net into gulf waters."

Jika diperhatikan, bagian rumpang tersebut akan dilengkapi dengan Simple Past Tense, ditandai dengan konjungsi 'when' yang menghubungkan kedua kalimat tersebut. Pola kalimatnya adalah "Past Continuous Tense + When + Simple Past Tense."

Kalimat nomor 3 terletak setelah 'when' dengan pola Simple Past Tense (S + V2). Subjek kalimat adalah he. Kata kerja yang digunakan adalah cast. Bentuk V2 dari 'cast' adalah 'cast'.

Ketika dilengkapi, bagian rumpang tersebut menjadi "Captain Carl Moore 2. was working about 10 miles off the coast of Key West, Fla., last month when he 3. cast his net into gulf waters." (Kapten Carl Moore (2.) sedang bekerja sekitar 10 mil di lepas pantai Key West, Florida, bulan lalu ketika dia melemparkan jaringnya ke perairan teluk.)

Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah cast.
