Soal tersebut menanyakan tentang bagian yang rumpang dalam kalimat.

Setiawan began writing novels when he was only eleven years old, and in the following year as he graduated from his elementary school he nationally published his first novel.
This means that Setiawan … novels by the time he graduated from his elementary school.

(Setiawan mulai menulis novel ketika ia baru berusia sebelas tahun, dan pada tahun berikutnya setelah lulus dari sekolah dasar ia menerbitkan novel pertamanya secara nasional. Artinya Setiawan… novel-novelnya pada saat ia lulus dari sekolah dasar.)

Berdasarkan kalimat di atas, dapat kita ketahui bahwa Setiawan sudah menuliskan novelnya sebelum dia lulus dari sekolah dasar.  Kemudian, setelah lulus sekolah dasar, Setiawan menerbitkan novel pertamanya.

Kegiatan Setiawan menulis novel sudah selesai pada masa lalu/lampau sebelum kegiatan lain yaitu Setiawan lulus. Oleh karena itu termasuk Past Perfect Tense. Adapun pola kalimat pada Past Tense adalah Subject + had + verb 3 +Object/Complement.
 Sehingga bagian yang rumpang yang tepat adalah "had written".
Kalimat lengkapnya yaitu "This means that Setiawan had written novels by the time he graduated from his elementary school."

Jadi,  bagian yang rumpang dalam kalimat adalah "had written".

Setiawan began writing novels when he was only eleven years old, and in the following year as he graduated from his elementary school he nationally published his first novel. This means that Setiawan … novels by the time he graduated from his elementary school.
