Pembahasan

Soal menanyakan a pa yang akan terjadi jika gadis itu tidak menjatuhkan batu yang diambilnya. Menjatuhkan batu tersebut merupakan cara cerdik yang dilakukan oleh si gadis untuk melawan kelicikan dari si rentenir (Paragraf 3-5). Dengan demikian akhirnya dia dan sang ayah terbebas dari rentenir tesebut (Finally the girl was free and the farmer didn't need to give the money back). Namun, jika si gadis tidak menjatuhkan batu yang diambilnya maka kejadiannya akan berlawanan dengan akhir cerita tersebut, yaitu "The money lender would win the challenge". Si rentenir tidak akan kalah, ia akan menang dan menikahi si gadis karena tindakan curangnya. Jadi, jawaban yang benar adalah B.
