Kunci Jawaban:

2.A
3.D.
Jawaban no. 3 ini, ada yang milih E. Honourable.
Saya lebih memilih Easygoing karena jika dilihat dari beberapa kata sifat yang menggandengi kata gentle di atas semuanya mengarah ke arti "BAIK." Honourable lebih ke arah --> jujur, adil, rasa hormat. Sementara Easygoing_--> tidak mudah jengkel.
