Question

From the text we know that fireflies only mate ....

Fireflies are just name. They are actually very cool insects. And they are not even flies, they are beetles. They have a way of sending out light signals every now and then. If you see them at night on a tree, you might think it is a brightly *lit tree. That is the kind of light these fireflies produce. Fireflies have transparent *abdomen. There are cells of crystals or chemical substances inside it which get broken down by enzymes. Some energy is released in the form of light. However, the light they send out does not have heat. The light is cold. The fireflies send out light signals at fixed intervals. And the purpose behind it is to attract beetles for mating*. But one firefly's signal is different from another's, depending on its *sex and the type of family it belongs to. If a firefly sends a signal at a fixed interval but gets a response either too soon or too late, it will ignore the signal. It is like a perfect dance sequence. If you are faster or slower than your partner, the dance fails.

a. in the morning 
b. at night 
c. at dawn 
d. in the afternoon

Jawaban untuk soal di atas adalah b. at night.

Soal ini menanyakan kapan kunang-kunang kawin.

Pada teks terdapat kalimat "If you see them at night on a tree, you might think it is a brightly lit tree. That is the kind of light these fireflies produce" yang artinya "Jika kamu melihatnya di malam hari di atas pohon, kamu mungkin mengira itu adalah pohon terang. Itulah jenis cahaya yang dihasilkan kunang-kunang ini."

Kemudian disebutkan "The fireflies send out light signals at fixed intervals. And the purpose behind it is to attract beetles for mating" yang artinya "Kunang-kunang mengirimkan sinyal cahaya pada interval tetap. Dan tujuan di baliknya adalah untuk menarik kumbang untuk kawin."

Berdasarkan kalimat tersebut, dapat disimpulkan bahwa kunang-kunang hanya kawin pada malam hari, saat kunang-kunang tersebut memancarkan cahaya.

Jadi, jawaban yang tepat adalah b. at night.
