People who reverse the letters of words ……… to read suffer from dyslexia. A. When tried
B. If they tried
C. If he tries
D. When trying.

Jawaban:

D. when trying

People who reverse the letters of words when trying to read suffer from dyslexia.

Penjelasan:

Clause yang didahului kata seperti before, after, when, while, since, dapat dilanjutkan dengan gerund (yaitu kata yang formatnya adalah kerja +ing (verb +ing) yang berfungsi sebagai kata benda), jika subjek clause tersebut sama dengan subjek yang sudah disebutkan di bagian kalimat yang lain.

Di sini sudah disebutkan people di awal kalimat, dan  jika menggunakan before, after, when, while since tidak perlu diulangi lagi di bagian kalimat lain, cukup menggunakan gerund.

Contoh lain:

I was laughing hard when watching the comedy show.

My mother sang a happy song while preparing the meal.

I got a lot of friends since moving to this area.

Semoga bermanfaat.
