Complete de sentence with was,were,wasn't or weren't Keyra ________ happy yesterday. She broke up with her boyfriend.

The correct answer is "wasn't, was not" because the sentence is in the past tense and refers to a single person, Keyra. The negative form of the past tense of "to be" is "wasn't" or "was not," so it is appropriate to use in this context to indicate that Keyra was not happy yesterday.Rate this question:

Yes/No questions with verb to BE in the simple past start with the words WAS or WERE
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Yes/No questions with the verb to BE in the simple past tense start with the words WAS or WERE. This is because WAS is used for singular subjects (I, he, she, it) and WERE is used for plural subjects (we, you, they). For example, "Was she at the party?" or "Were they late for the meeting?" Therefore, the statement "Yes/No questions with verb to BE in the simple past start with the words WAS or WERE" is true.Rate this question:

The sentences are in present simple. Turn them into past simple. She is at home.
-
She was at home
-
She were at home
-
She wasn't at home.
-
She weren't at home.
Correct Answer
A. She was at homeExplanation
The correct answer is "She was at home." This is the correct past simple form of the sentence "She is at home." In the past tense, we use "was" for singular subjects like "she." The other options "She were at home" and "She weren't at home" are incorrect because "were" is used for plural subjects and "weren't" is the negative form of "were."Rate this question:

-
He did his work well.
-
He didn't his work well.
-
He doed his work well.
-
He do his work well.
Correct Answer
A. He did his work well.Explanation
The correct answer is "He did his work well." This is the correct transformation of the sentence from present simple to past simple. The verb "do" is changed to its past form "did" and the rest of the sentence remains the same. The other options are incorrect because they either use the incorrect past form of the verb ("doed") or do not use the past form at all ("didn't", "do").Rate this question:

-
I broke a cup
-
I breaked a cup.
-
I broak a cup.
-
I broken a cup
Correct Answer
A. I broke a cupExplanation
The correct answer is "I broke a cup." This is the correct past simple form of the verb "break" in the first person singular. The other options are incorrect because "breaked" and "broak" are not correct verb forms in the past simple tense, and "broken" is the past participle form of the verb, not the past simple tense.Rate this question:

Yes/No questions with verb to BE in the simple past start with the word DID
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The explanation for the given correct answer is that yes/no questions with the verb "to be" in the simple past do not start with the word "DID." In English grammar, yes/no questions in the simple past with the verb "to be" are formed by inverting the subject and the verb "to be." For example, "Was he happy?" or "Were they tired?" Therefore, the statement "Yes/No questions with verb to BE in the simple past start with the word DID" is false.Rate this question:

Complete de sentence with was,were,wasn't or weren't We ________ at home last night. We went to the cinema.
Correct Answer
weren't, were notExplanation
The correct answer is "weren't, were not." This is because the sentence is referring to multiple people (we) and the action of being at home. Since they went to the cinema, it implies that they were not at home. "Weren't" and "were not" both indicate the negative form of the verb "to be" in the past tense, which is appropriate in this context.Rate this question:
