Halo Binar K, kakak bantu jawab ya. :)

Jawabannya adalah "i. found".

Penjelasan:
Soalnya menyuruh untuk melengkapi bagian rumpang  nomor 4 dengan kata yang tepat.

Untuk menjawab soalnya, maka perlu disesuaikan dengan konteks kalimat dan pilihan jawaban.

Makna pilihan jawaban:
a. wealthy - kaya
b. happy - senang/bahagia
c. know - mengetahui
d. saw - melihat
e. lived - hidup/tinggal
f. tired - lelah
g. sleep - tidur
h. help - menolong
i. found - menemukan

Konteks Kalimat soalnya pada bagian rumpang nomor 4:
"The next morning he (4) ____ a pair of nicely finished shoes on his workbench."

(Keesokan paginya dia (4) ____ sepasang sepatu yang sudah jadi di meja kerjanya.)

Berdasarkan pada konteks kalimat, terlihat bahwa pada pagi hari tiba-tiba di atas meja kerja si penjahit sepatu telah ada sepasang sepasang sepatu yang sudah jadi. Dengan demikian, kata yang tempat untuk mengisi rupang nomor 4 adalah "found" yang bermakna "menemukan". Kalimat lengkapnya "The next morning he found a pair of nicely finished shoes on his workbench." (Keesokan paginya dia menemukan sepasang sepatu yang sudah jadi di meja kerjanya.)

Jadi, jawabannya adalah "i. found"
