jawaban yang tidak disebutkan dalam teks bacaan.

tidak disebutkan secara jelas di dalam bacaan atau disebut juga dengan making inference.
Untuk menentukan jawaban dari pertanyaan semacam ini, Anda harus membaca kalimat-
demi kalimat. Dengan kata lain, buatlah kesimpulan berdasarkan informasi tidakn langsung
dalam teks. Banyak para peserta tes merasa bahwa pertanyaan tipe ini adalah yang paling
sulit dipahami. Pertanyaan semacam ini biasanya meminta Anda memilih pernyataan dari
empat pilihan jawaban yang tidak tercantum dalam bacaan atau pernyataan yang tidak sesuai
dengan pernyataan yang terdapat di dalam bacaan. Terdapat dua macam pertanyaan tipe
ini, yaitu (1) terdapat tiga jawaban benar dan satu jawaban tidak disebutkan dalam
bacaan, (2) terdapat tiga jawaban benar dan satu jawaban salah - tidak sesuai dengan
bacaan. Selain itu, making inference biasanya diindikasikan dengan jenis pertanyaan sebagai
berikut:
Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?

The author implies that . . .
Which of the following does the passage imply?

Perhatikan contoh berikut.
The Passage
In English, there are many different kinds of expressions that
people use to give a name to anything whose name is unknown or
momentarily forgotten. The word gadget is one such word. It was
Line first used by British sailors in the 1850s and probably came from
(5) the French word gachette, which was a small hook. In everyday use,
the word has a more general meaning. Other words are also used to
give a name to something unnamed or unknown, and these words
tend to be somewhat imaginative. Some of the more commonly
used expressions are a what-d’ye-call-it, a whatsis, a thingamabob, a
(10) thingamajig, a doodad, or a doohickey.
The question:
Which of the following is NOT true about the word "gadget"?
(A) It is used to name something when the name is not known.
(B) It was used at the beginning of the nineteenth century.
(C) It most likely came from a word in the French language.
(D) Its first known use was by British sailors.
Pertanyaan ini meminta satu jawaban yang tidak sesuai tentang kata “gadget”, jadi tiga
pilihan jawaban sesuai dan satu pilihan jawaban tidak sesuai. Carilah kata "gadget" dalam
bacaan dan menemukan informasi yang tidak sesuai. Jawaban (A), (C), dan (D) semuanya
sesuai menurut bacaan, maka jawaban ini salah. Sedangkan, jawaban (B) adalah satu jawaban
yang tidak sesuai: yang menyatakan "It was used at the beginning of the nineteenth century"
(Ia dipakai di awal abad 19). Padahal, di dalam bacaan disebutkan "gadget ... was first used
by British sailors in the 1850s" (pertama kali digunakan oleh pelaut Inggris di tahun 1850
an). Karena itu, jawaban (B) adalah jawaban yang paling tepat untuk pertanyaan ini.
Selanjutnya perhatikan contoh soal pilihan ganda dari tes TOEFL komputer yang meminta
untuk menemukan salah satu jawabn yang tidak disebutkan.

all donors and does not have to be from the right blood group, as whole blood does. In

Dekanawida's role as a supreme lawgiver in the Iroquois tribe has given him the status of demigod within the Indian nation. Born into the Huron tribe, Dekanawida caused great fear in his parents, who tried to drown him in his youth after a prophecy was made indicating that he would bring great sorrow to the Huron nation. Dekanawida was to survive this attempted drowning but later left his parents' home and tribe to live among the Iroquois.
One of his achievements with the Iroquois was the institution of a law among the Iroquois that virtually ended blood feuds among the nation's families. Wampum, strings of beads madeof polished shells, was a valued commodity in the Iroquois culture; according to policies established by Dekanawida, wampum had to be paid to the family of a murder victim by the family of the killer. Since the killer was also put to death, the family of the killer had to pay the victim's family in wampum for two deaths, the death of the murder victim and the death of the killer. These strict policies implemented by Dekanawida helped to establish him as a wise lawgiver and leader of the Iroquois nation

Ambient divers are, unlike divers who go underwater in submersible vehicles or
pressure resistant suits, exposed to the pressure and temperature of the surrounding (ambient)
water. Of all types of diving, the oldest and simplest free diving. Free divers may use no
equipment all, but most use a face mask, foot fins, and snorkel. Under the surface, free divers
must their breath. Most free divers can only descend 30 to 40 feet, but some skilled divers
can go deep as 100 feet.
Scuba diving provides greater range than free diving. The word scuba stands for
selfcontained underwater breathing apparatus. Scuba divers wear metal tanks with
compressed air or other breathing gases. When using open-circuit equipment, a scuba diver
simply breathes air from the tank through a hose and releases the exhaled air into the water. A
closed-circuit breathing device, also called a rebreather, filters out carbon dioxide and other
harmful gases and automatically adds oxygen. This enables the diver to breathe the same air
over and over.
In surface-supplied diving, divers wear helmets and waterproof canvas suits. Today,
sophisticated plastic helmets have replaced heavy copper helmets used in the past. These
divers get their air from a hose connected to compressors on a boat. Surface-supplied divers
can go deeper than any other type of mbient diver.

(A) can descend to extreme depths.
(B) use submersible vehicles.
(C) use no equipment.
