CARA MUDAH MENGERJAKAN SOAL TOEFL(STRUCTURE)

By YULI ROSA RITA -
1.I found that it was much.........for me to understand the city.
a.easy
b.easier
c.more easy
d.more easy than
Kata much mengindikasikan bahwa kalimat ini mengandung unsur komparatif walau yang menjadi perbandingannya tidak disebutkan secara jelas.Maka,kata komparatif yang tepat adalah easier.
2.Sometimes the museums are even.............the most famous place of interest.
a.attractive
b.more attractive
c.attractive than
d.more attractive than
Kalimat ini jelas membandingkan dua hal-yaitu the museums dan most famous place of interest.Maka,pelengkap yang tepat adalah kompaatif more attractive than.
3.The food there tastes...........homecooked meals.
a.more delicious than
b.more delicious
c.delicious than
d.deliciouser than
Kata sifat delicious merupakan kata bersuku kata lebih dari satu dan bukan diakhiri oleh y maka jika diubah menjadi kata komparatif maka susunannya menjadi more+kata sifat+than=more delicious than.
4.Eating out side is comfortable and convenient,but eating at home has.............
a.benefits
b.more benefits
c.more benefits than
d.benefits than
Kata but mengindikasikan kontras atau pernyataan yang dimungkinkan lebih dari pernyataan sebelumnya.Maka,pada kalimat kedua akan lebih tepat jika kata komparatif digunakan untuk menjelaskan kata benda tanpa menggunakan than lagi.Jadi,jawaban yang tepat adalah more benefits.
5.Nuclear emissions are..........to damage the environment than any thing else.
a.vulnerable
b.more vulnerable
c.more vulnerable than
d.vulnerable than
Vulnerable merupakan kata sifat bersuku kata lebih dari satu,maka untuk menunjukkan komparatif digunakan more.Setelah more vulnerable tidak perlu lagi kata than karena kata tersebut sudah ada dalam soal.Jadi,jawaban yang benar adalah more vulnerable.
6.Our Earth has certainly been turned into a..........world than it was centuries ago.
a.beautiful
b.more beautiful much
c.much more beautiful
d.more much beautiful
Kata beautiful terdiri dari tiga suku kata sehingga jika diubah ke kata komparatif mendapat tambahan kata more.Jika kata more diperjelas dengan kata sifat seperti much maka susunannya menjadi much more beautiful.
7.In term of subs tantive level,no other reasons in my decision is...........the one above.
a.crucial
b.crucial than
c.more crucial than
d.crucial than
Komparatif dengan menggunakan kata crucial akan diubah menjadi more crucial than karena crucial memiliki suku kata lebih dari satu.Jadi,jawaban yang tepat adalah c.
8.Lots of pollutions made the air quality...........
a.more bad
b.worse
c.worst
d.bad than
Kalimat ini seolah tidak menunjukkan komparatif karena yang dibandingkan sama yaitu the air quality itu sendiri.Sehingga,komparatif yang tepat dari kata sifat bad adalah worse.
9.People can be improved...........because of science and technology development.
a.sooner
b.more soon
c.sooner than
d.more soon than
Kalimat ini memiliki persamaan dengan kalimat soal sebelumnya yaitu kalimat ini seolah tidak memiliki unsur komparatif.Namun,kalimat ini memiliki unsur kompratif.Komparatif terjadi pada proses improve yang lebih cepat.Lebih cepat dapat diterjemahkan menjadi sooner.
10. I believe that human activity makes the Earth....... 
a.more good
b.more good than
c. gooder than
d.better
Kalimat ini juga memiliki persamaan dengan soal sebelumnya kaena tampaknya tidak mengandung unsur komparatif.Padahal,kata Earth sebelumnya dan sesudahnya menjadikan komparatif itu ada.Maka,kata yang tepat untuk melengkapi kalimat ini adalah better.

             Just two months after the flight of Apollo 10,the Apollo 11 astronouts made their historic landing on the surface of the moon.This momentous trip for humanity also provided scientists with an abundance of material for study;from rock and soil samples brought back from the Moon,scientists have been able to determine much about the composition of the Moon as well as to draw inferences about the development of the Moon from its composition.               The Moon soil that came back on Apollo 11 contains small bits of rock and glass which were probably ground from larger rocks when meteors impacted with the surface of the Moon.The bits of glass are spherical in shape and constitute approximately half of the Moon soil.Scientists found no trace of animal or plant life in this soil.               In addition to the Moon soil,astronauts gathered two basic types of rocks from the surface of the Moon:basalt and breccia.Basalt is a cooled and hardened volcanic lava common to the E

             During the heyday of the railroads,when Ameria's rail system provided the bulk of the country's passenger and freight transportation,various types of railroad cars were in servive to accomplish the varied tasks handled by the railroads.One type of car that was not available for public use prior to the civil War,however,was a sleeping car,ideas for sleeping cars abounded at the time, but these ideas were unworkable.It unfortunately took the death of a president to make the sleeping car a viable reality.               Cabinet-maker George M.Pullman had recognized the demand for sleeping cars and had worked on developing experimental models of sleeping cars in the decade leading up to the Civil War.However,in spite of the fact that he had made successful test runs on the chicago and Alton Railroads with his models,he was unable to sell his idea because his models were too wide and too high for existing train stations and bridges.In 1863,after spending time working as
