Pembahasan

Kata confided pada kalimat tersebut mempunyai makna sebenarnya “mengaku”. Pilihan jabawan "made a group" salah karena artinya “membentuk kelompok.” Jawaban "did observation" masih kurang tepat karena bermakna “melakukan observasi”. Sedangkan jawaban "conducted a research" juga salah karena berarti “melakukan penelitian”. Jawaban "told a secret" adalah jawaban yang tepat karena berdasarkan konteks kalimat makna dari kata “confided” mempunyai arti merahasiakan sesuatu.
