2. Choose the correct word: "_______ you need a passport to go overseas?"

Explanation

"Do" is the correct word because the sentence requires a plural present tense verb form to agree with the subject "you," which always takes a plural verb regardless of whether it refers to one person or multiple people.

Submit
3. Read the sentence and answer whether it is true or false in terms of subject-verb agreement. The baggers at the supermarket in my neighborhood are very friendly.

Explanation

The sentence is correctly formed in terms of subject-verb agreement. "The baggers" is a plural subject, and the verb "are" agrees with the plural subject. Therefore, the sentence is true.

Submit
4. Read the sentence and choose the correct noun which should be singular or plural.  It is crucial to take enough supply for the journey.

Explanation

The word "supply" should be pluralized to "supplies" when referring to the necessary amount of something for a journey. "Journeys" could be considered, but "supplies" is more appropriate as it refers to a collection or group of things needed for a trip.

Submit
5. Which phrase describes the meeting point of four different Western states?

Explanation

The question is asking about the location where four different western states meet. The correct answer is the phrase "Four different western states," which accurately describes this geographic feature (e.g., the Four Corners region in the U.S. where Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah meet).

Submit
6. Choose the correct word: "The countries of Europe _________ their first choice."

Explanation

The correct word is "were" due to the grammatical principle of subject-verb agreement, which dictates that the verb form must match the number of the subject. In this sentence, "countries" is a plural noun, serving as the subject. Therefore, it requires a plural verb form to maintain grammatical consistency.

Submit
7. Read the sentence and check the nouns which should be plural or singular.  Guide from Tibet take climbers to the top of the mountains. 

Explanation

The noun "Guide" should be in its plural form "Guides" to match the subject "climbers," which is plural. "Tibets" is incorrect because "Tibet" is a proper noun and should not be pluralized, and "climber" should be "climbers."

Submit
8. Fill in the correct punctuation mark at the end of the sentence.  Run, or we'll miss the taxi

Explanation

The sentence "Run, or we'll miss the taxi" is an urgent command. The punctuation mark that indicates urgency or strong emotion is an exclamation mark. Therefore, the correct choice is the exclamation mark (!).

Submit
9. Find the subject:  On this spot, you stand in the states of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado at the same time.

Explanation

In the sentence, the subject is the person performing the action, which is "you." "You" is the one standing in the states, making it the subject of the sentence. The phrase "On this spot" is a prepositional phrase and does not function as the subject.

Submit
10. Choose the correct verb: "Neither Molly nor Jenna _____ waking up in the morning."

Explanation

The subject of this sentence is "Neither Molly nor Jenna." When using the structure "Neither... nor," the verb agrees with the subject that is closest to it. In this case, "Jenna" is singular, so the correct verb form is enjoys.

Submit
11. What is the correct punctuation for the following sentence? Give me the subway map.

Explanation

The sentence "Give me the subway map" is a direct request or order, which makes it a command. Commands typically end with a period or an exclamation mark, but the context suggests it's more of a direct instruction, hence classified as a command.

Submit
12. Choose the correct verb: "The roar of the cannons (makes/make) conversation impossible."

Explanation

The subject "The roar of the cannons" is singular because it refers to the singular concept of "the roar" despite the plural "cannons." Therefore, the correct verb is makes, as it agrees with the singular subject.

Submit
13. Which type of sentence is "This is the old train station."?

Explanation

The sentence "This is the old train station" is providing information or making a declaration. It is a statement because it is simply telling us something, with no command or question involved.

Submit
14. Choose the correct verb: "The debate moderator or the candidates _____ the last word."

Explanation

In this sentence, "The debate moderator or the candidates" uses the correlative conjunction "or." When subjects are joined by "or," the verb agrees with the subject closest to it. Since "candidates" is plural, the correct form of the verb is has.

Submit
15. Choose the complete sentences:

Explanation

A complete sentence must have both a subject and a predicate (a verb and a complete thought). The sentence "He let go of the bar and somersaulted in the air" contains a subject ("He") and a compound predicate ("let go of the bar and somersaulted in the air"), making it a complete sentence. The other options are fragments.
