Jawaban nomor 8: opened

Soal meminta kita untuk mengisi rumpang dengan kata yang sesuai.

Terlihat pada kalimat nomor 8 "The games are officially (open) 8.____ by lighting of the Olympic torch." yang artinya "Pertandingan DIbuka secara resmi oleh cahaya dari obor Olimpiade.".

Terdapat to be 'are' dan frasa 'by lightning of the Olympic torch' pada kalimat soal, sehingga menandakan bahwa kalimat tersebut merupakan kalimat pasif Simple Present tense yang berpola S + to be (is/am/are) + V3 + (by agent).

Berdasarkan pola tersebut, maka kita hanya perlu menambahkan V3 dari 'open' yaitu 'opened'. Maka kalimat utuh untuk nomor 8 adalah "The games are officially opened by lighting of the Olympic torch."

Jadi, kata yang tepat untuk mengisi nomor 8 adalah opened.
