2. Zeg dat dit de eerste keer is dat je hier bent.

Explanation

The correct answer is "This is the first time I have been here." This is because the phrase "have been" is used to indicate an action that started in the past and is still ongoing in the present. In this context, it implies that the speaker is currently at the location for the first time. The other options ("I've been," "I came," "I was," "we have been") do not convey the same sense of ongoing action in the present.

Submit
3. Zeg dat je een hekel hebt aan kranten bezorgen om vijf uur 's ochtends.

Explanation

The correct answer is "I hate delivering newspapers at five in the morning" because it accurately translates the Dutch sentence "Zeg dat je een hekel hebt aan kranten bezorgen om vijf uur 's ochtends." The word "delivering" accurately conveys the action of bringing newspapers to people's homes, which is the job of a newspaper delivery person. The other options ("taking," "bringing," and "giving") do not accurately capture the action of delivering newspapers.

Submit
4. Zeg: Ik zal je aan al mijn vrienden voorstellen.

Explanation

The correct answer is "I'll introduce you to all my friends." This is the most accurate translation of the given Dutch sentence. It conveys the meaning that the speaker will make introductions between the person they are speaking to and their friends.

Submit
5. Zeg dat het natuurschoon daar prachtig is.

Explanation

The correct answer is "The scenery is beautiful out there." This is because the word "scenery" refers to the natural beauty of a place, such as landscapes, mountains, or bodies of water. The word "beautiful" accurately describes the attractiveness and aesthetic appeal of the natural surroundings.

Submit
6. Zeg: Ik zie je nog wel.

Explanation

The correct answer is "I'll see you." This is because the Dutch phrase "Ik zie je nog wel" is a casual way of saying goodbye, indicating that the speaker expects to see the person again in the future. The phrase "I'll see you" is the most accurate translation of this meaning. The other options ("I may see you," "I can see you," "I am going to see you") do not convey the same sense of expectation or future meeting.

Submit
7. Vraag of ze het minimumloon betalen.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Do they pay minimum wages?" because the question is asking if the company pays the minimum wage, which is a standard wage set by law. The use of the plural form "wages" indicates that the question is asking about the overall payment to employees, rather than a specific wage rate.

Submit
8. Zeg dat je graag een baan hebt waarbij je kunt zitten.  

Explanation

The correct answer is "I'd like a sitting job." and "I'd like to have a sitting job." These answers specifically mention wanting a job where one can sit, which aligns with the given statement of wanting a job where one can sit. The other options do not mention sitting or having a sitting job.

Submit
9. Zeg dat je niet mag klagen.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Can't complain", "Cannot complain", and "I can't complain". These phrases are all idiomatic expressions used to indicate that the person is satisfied with their current situation and has no complaints.

Submit
10. Vraag hoe het vandaag gaat.

Explanation

The correct answer options for this question are: "Good morning. How are you today?", "Good morning. How are you?", and "Good morning. How do you do?". These options are all appropriate responses to the question "Vraag hoe het vandaag gaat," which translates to "Ask how you are today." Each of these answers conveys a polite greeting and an inquiry about the person's well-being.
