Explanation

Barcelona has been playing well this season, indicating that their performance has been consistently good throughout the season.

Explanation

The correct answer is "had been washed" and "was washed". Both options indicate that the shirt underwent the action of being washed. "Had been washed" suggests that the washing of the shirt occurred before another event or point in time, while "was washed" implies that the washing happened at a specific moment or in a general sense.

Submit
5. Last week I was sad. I ________ ( fire ) from  the soccer team me two days before.

Explanation

The correct answer is "had been fired" because the sentence is in the past tense and the action of being fired from the soccer team had already happened before the speaker felt sad last week. The phrase "had been" indicates that the firing occurred before the past moment being referred to.

Submit
6. HELLO! It _________ (be ) nice to see you again.

Explanation

The correct answer is "is" because the sentence is in the present tense and the subject "HELLO!" is singular. Therefore, the correct form of the verb "to be" to use is "is".

Submit
7. Teacher, sorry I didn't bring the homework. I _______ ( forget) it at home this morning.

Explanation

The correct answer is "forgot" because the speaker is apologizing to the teacher for not bringing their homework, and they explain that they forgot it at home in the morning. "Forgot" is the past tense of the verb "forget," which means to fail to remember or unintentionally leave something behind.

Submit
8. I'm looking forward to ______ (see) you soon.

Explanation

The correct answer is "seeing" because the phrase "I'm looking forward to" is followed by a gerund form of the verb, which indicates an action that is anticipated or expected. In this case, the gerund form "seeing" is used to express the anticipation of seeing someone in the near future.

Submit
9. By the time I`m 75 I _________________ ( retire ) already  from education.

Explanation

By the time the person reaches the age of 75, they will have already retired from their career in education. This implies that the person plans to stop working in education before they turn 75, indicating a future action that will be completed prior to a specific point in time. The correct verb tense to express this idea is the future perfect tense, "will have retired."

Submit
10. I've heard you __________ ( have ) a baby! Great!!

Explanation

The correct answer is "are having." This is because the sentence is in the present continuous tense, indicating an action that is happening now. "Are having" is the correct form of the verb "have" in the present continuous tense. On the other hand, "are going to have" implies a future action, which is not suitable in this context.
