Hai Diandra, kakak bantu jawab yaa.

Jawaban dari soal ini adalah C. did.

Perintah dari soal adalah melengkapi teks rumpang diatas nomor 39.

Kalimat rumpang nomor 39 adalah, "They also (39) ... many things for poor families." Kalimat-kalimat sebelumnya adalah, "On the orphanage's 15th birthday, they gave each child twenty thousand rupiahs." (Pada ulang tahun ke-15 panti asuhan, mereka memberi setiap anak dua puluh ribu rupiah.)

Kalimat sebelumnya menggunakan Simple Past Tense untuk menyatakan hal yang terjadi di masa lalu. Maka, kalimat nomor 39 juga akan dilengkapi menggunakan Simple Past Tense, karena konteks kalimatnya mengarah pada hal yang sudah terjadi di masa lalu. Rumus dari Simple Past Tense adalah, S + V2 + O/C.

Dari opsi jawaban A-D, yang merupakan V2 adalah "did". Maka, bagian rumpang akan diisi dengan kata "did".

Kalimat lengkapnya menjadi, "They also did many things for poor families." (Mereka juga sudah melakukan banyak hal untuk keluarga miskin.)

Jadi, jawaban yang tepat adalah C. did.

Semoga membantu.
