This item presents a short dialogue exercise in Indonesian/Malay, asking you to select the sequence of phrases that best completes the two blanks in:

Michael: Terima kasih kerana menolong saya. _______.
Tommy: _______. Selamat jalan.

Then you pick from the options A–E to fill the blanks in a way that makes sense in conversation.

Option A: Selamat pagi. Sama-sama
- Analysis: 'Selamat pagi' means 'Good morning' and is a greeting, which is out of place right after 'Terima kasih' (thank you). 'Sama-sama' means 'you’re welcome' and would be a plausible response to a thank you, but it would only fit one blank, leaving the second blank unresolved for Tommy to say something like a farewell. Overall, this pairing doesn’t create a coherent two-line exchange given the second line already includes 'Selamat jalan' (safe travels).

Option B: Selamat tengah hari. Terima kasih.
- Analysis: 'Selamat tengah hari' means 'Good noon/afternoon' and is a greeting, while 'Terima kasih' means 'thank you'. This would imply Michael says thanks and then greets, which is illogical in sequence, and it doesn’t align with the role of Tommy’s subsequent response ending with a farewell.

Option C: Terima kasih. Jumpa lagi.
- Analysis: 'Terima kasih' is redundant here since Michael already says 'Terima kasih'. Repeating thanks in the blank would duplicate the sentiment in an awkward way, and 'Jumpa lagi' (see you again) could fit as an informal closing, but the structure would place Michael’s blank as another thank-you, which is unlikely and disrupts natural flow with Tommy’s line ending in a farewell.

Option D: Selamat tinggal. Sama-sama.
- Analysis: 'Selamat tinggal' means 'goodbye' to someone departing, which could be a fit for Tommy’s line ending with 'Selamat jalan' (safe travels). However, 'Selamat tinggal' is a farewell directed toward the other person leaving, while the second line already includes a farewell phrase; pairing it with 'Sama-sama' afterward is plausible but less natural for the given sequence around the first blank.

Option E: Jumpa lagi. Sama-sama.
- Analysis: 'Jumpa lagi' means 'see you again' and 'Sama-sama' means 'you’re welcome'. In this arrangement, Michael’s blank would be 'Jumpa lagi' (a casual sign-off), and Tommy’s blank would be 'Sama-sama' as a response to Michael’s thanks, followed by 'Selamat jalan' as the actual farewell. While the punctuation may seem unusual, this option yields a coherent two-line exchange where the second line ends with the appropriate farewell. Overall, it best maintains natural conversational flow given the surrounding phrases and the final 'Selamat jalan.'
