Paragraf Lengkap dengan Jawaban yang Benar

Hello! My name is Lisa, and I am a student at SMP Muhammadiyah 6 Krian. My best friend is Sarah, and she is very kind. Every morning, we are in the schoolyard before class starts. The teachers are always on time, and the lessons are interesting.

However, my little brother is not in school yet because he is still too young. My parents are very supportive of my studies. They always say, "Education is important for your future."

Now, let me ask you a few questions. Are you a student too? Is your school big? Are your teachers friendly? I hope you enjoy learning English as much as I do!

Analisis Penggunaan "To Be" dalam Simple Present

1. Kalimat Positif

• My name is Lisa. → "Is" digunakan karena "name" adalah kata benda tunggal.
• I am a student. → "Am" digunakan karena subjeknya "I".
• My best friend is Sarah. → "Is" digunakan karena "best friend" adalah singular noun.
• She is very kind. → "Is" digunakan untuk subjek "she".
• We are in the schoolyard. → "Are" digunakan untuk subjek jamak "we".
• The teachers are always on time. → "Are" digunakan karena "teachers" adalah plural noun.
• The lessons are interesting. → "Are" digunakan untuk "lessons" yang jamak.
• My parents are very supportive. → "Are" digunakan karena "parents" bersifat jamak.
• Education is important. → "Is" digunakan karena "education" adalah singular noun.

2. Kalimat Negatif

5. We are not in the schoolyard.
6. The teachers are not always on time.
7. The lessons are not interesting.
8. My parents are not very supportive.

1. Is my name Lisa?
2. Am I a student?
3. Is my best friend Sarah?
4. Is she very kind?
5. Are we in the schoolyard?
6. Are the teachers always on time?
7. Are the lessons interesting?

Kesimpulan

• "Am" digunakan hanya untuk subjek "I".
• "Is" digunakan untuk subjek tunggal seperti "he, she, it", atau kata benda tunggal.
• "Are" digunakan untuk subjek jamak seperti "we, you, they", atau kata benda jamak.
• Kalimat negatif menggunakan "not" setelah "to be".
• Kalimat interrogative dibuat dengan memindahkan "to be" ke depan.
