Question

Read the following passages and answer the question that follow.

What will man be like in the future-in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be
sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.

Let us· take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three
inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.

Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still niake use of only about 20% of the brain capacity. As time
goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more-and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a
physical change too; the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant. use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs.
These as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? This will probably disappear from·the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.

Perhaps all of this gives the impression that future man will not a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. lnspite of these changes; future man will still have a lot of common with us. He will still be human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.

The writer imagines that future man will entirely bald because...
A. there will be no difference in head
B. the human body has no use for hair
C. being bald will be the fashion of the future
D. evolution makes the appearance of man and woman more similar
E. future man will not be interested in having hair

Jawaban yang benar adalah "D. evolution makes the appearance of man and woman more similar"

Soal ini menanyakan alasan penulis membayangkan bahwa masa depan manusia akan sepenuhnya botak.

Arti dari opsi jawabannya:
A. there will be no difference in head = tidak akan ada perbedaan dalam kepala
B. the human body has no use for hair = tubuh manusia tidak menggunakan rambut
C. being bald will be the fashion of the future = menjadi botak akan menjadi mode masa depan
D. evolution makes the appearance of man and woman more similar = evolusi membuat penampilan pria dan wanita lebih mirip
E. future man will not be interested in having hair = manusia masa depan tidak akan tertarik memiliki rambut

Pada teksnya tertera "But what about hair? This will probably disappear from·the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald." artinya "Tapi bagaimana dengan rambut? Ini mungkin akan hilang dari tubuh sama sekali dalam perjalanan waktu karena tidak melayani tujuan yang berguna lagi. Di masa depan, kedua jenis kelamin cenderung botak."

Dapat disimpulkan bahwa alasan penulis membayangkan bahwa masa depan manusia akan sepenuhnya botak adalah adanya evolusi yang membuat penampilan pria dan wanita lebih mirip yaitu masa depan manusia akan sepenuhnya botak.

Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah "D. evolution makes the appearance of man and woman more similar"

Semoga membantu ya
