2. Nous avons _________ un gateau pour ton anniversaire.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Mangé" because it is the past participle form of the verb "manger" (to eat) in the passé composé tense. In this sentence, we are saying "We have eaten a cake for your birthday." The past participle "mangé" agrees with the subject "nous" (we) and the auxiliary verb "avons" (have).

Submit
3. J'ai all é a Myrtle Beach.

Explanation

he sentence "J'ai allé à Myrtle Beach" is not correct in French. The verb form "allé" is the past participle of the verb "aller," which means "to go." However, in this context, you should use the verb "être" as the auxiliary verb, and the correct sentence should be:

"Je suis allé à Myrtle Beach."

Submit
4. J'étais furieux

Explanation

The given statement "J'étais furieux" translates to "I was furious" in English. Since the statement is in the past tense and expresses a feeling of anger, it implies that the person was indeed furious at some point in the past. Therefore, the correct answer is correct. 

 

Submit
5. Tu ________ en bonne humor.

Explanation

The correct answer is "étais." This is because the sentence is in the past tense and the subject is "tu," which corresponds to the second person singular pronoun. In the past tense, the verb "être" (to be) conjugates to "étais" for the second person singular form. Therefore, the correct sentence would be "Tu étais en bonne humor," meaning "You were in a good mood."

Submit
6. Elles __________ a Paris.

Explanation

The correct answer is "sont allées" because the subject "Elles" is feminine and plural, so the verb "aller" needs to agree with it. In this case, the past participle "allées" is used because the subject is feminine and plural.

Submit
7. J'ai ecouté a toi.

Explanation

This statement in French translates to "I listened to you." The correct answer is "True" because it affirms that the speaker listened to the person they are addressing.

Submit
8. J'______________ appeller toi.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Oubliais." This is the correct conjugation of the verb "oublier" in the first person singular form in the past tense. It means "I forgot" in English.

Submit
9. Je mangeais Cherrios a 9:00.

Explanation

The given sentence "Je mangeais Cherrios a 9:00" is in French and it translates to "I was eating Cherrios at 9:00." Since the sentence is in the past continuous tense, it suggests that the action of eating Cherrios was ongoing at a specific time in the past. Therefore, the correct answer is False, as the sentence implies an action that was happening in the past, not the present.

Submit
10. J'_________________ la pizza. (Manger)

Explanation

The correct answer is "ai mangé" because it is the correct conjugation of the verb "manger" in the first person singular form in the passé composé tense. "Ai" is the first person singular form of the auxiliary verb "avoir" in the present tense, and "mangé" is the past participle of the verb "manger". Therefore, "ai mangé" means "I have eaten" in English.

Submit
11. J'____________ en mauvais humor. (etre)

Explanation

The correct answer is "étais" because it is the correct conjugation of the verb "être" in the first person singular form in the past tense. The sentence is stating "I was in a bad mood," and "étais" is the appropriate form of the verb to use in this context.

Submit
12. Elle _______________ (Naitre.

Explanation

The correct answer is "est née" because it is the correct conjugation of the verb "naître" (to be born) in the third person singular form. In French, verbs need to be conjugated based on the subject and tense of the sentence. In this case, the subject "Elle" (she) is singular and in the past tense, so the correct form of the verb is "est née."

Submit
13. Elle est Morte.

Explanation

The phrase "Elle est morte" is the correct in French and the right verb has been used. "Elle est morte" is in the Passé Composé tense in French, which translates to "She died" or "She has died" in English. This tense is typically used to describe completed actions or events in the past.

Submit
14. Nous ___________________ a l'ecole. (aller)

Explanation

The correct answer is "sommes allés" because in French, when using the verb "aller" in the past tense, we need to use the auxiliary verb "être" and match the past participle with the subject. In this case, the subject "nous" is plural, so the past participle "allé" also needs to be plural, which is why we use "sommes allés."
