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.
