Hi, Mutia.

Kakak bantu jawab ya.

Jawaban yang benar adalah a. It couldn’t afford supporting overload.

Arti dari kalimat soal yaitu, "Jembatan penyeberangan di Baturaden putus karena ...".

Teks tersebut menceritakan tentang sebuah jembatan penyeberangan yang dipenuhi turis rusak di sebuah resor pegunungan pada hari Rabu di Baturaden, Jawa Tengah. Menelan korban jiwa sebanyak lima orang dan melukai 29 lainnya setelah mereka jatuh ke dasar sungai yang berbatu. Korban-korban dievakuasi ke tiga rumah sakit terdekat.

Kecelakaan itu terjadi saat rakyat itu menikmati liburan selama seminggu yang menandai berakhirnya Bulan Ramadhan, ketika orang-orang secara tradisional berduyun-duyun ke tempat-tempat liburan.

Berdasarkan isi tersebut maka dapat disimpulkan bahwa jembatan penyeberangan di Baturaden putus karena tidak mampu menampung kelebihan beban (it couldn’t afford supporting overload).

Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah A.

Semoga terbantu.
