  • 2. 

    Anyone would be annoyed if they ________ (receive) a parking fine.

    Explanation
    Receiving a parking fine is generally considered an irritating and frustrating experience for anyone. It implies that the person has violated parking regulations and now has to pay a penalty for it. This can lead to feelings of annoyance, inconvenience, and even anger. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that anyone would be annoyed if they received a parking fine.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    If I ________ (have) the opportunity to enter a talent contest, I’d take it.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "had" because the sentence is in the past conditional form. The speaker is talking about a hypothetical situation in the past, expressing a desire to participate in a talent contest if given the opportunity. "Had" is the correct past tense form of the verb "have" in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    She won’t tell you unless you ________ (promise) to keep it a secret.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "promise" because the sentence suggests that the person will only reveal the information if the other person makes a commitment to keep it confidential.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    If she does enough revision, she ________ (pass) the exam easily.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "will pass" because the sentence is in the future tense and the use of "will" indicates a future action. The phrase "if she does enough revision" suggests that her passing the exam is dependent on her level of preparation. Therefore, it can be inferred that if she puts in enough effort and revises adequately, she will pass the exam easily.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    I ________ (buy) that laptop if it wasn’t so expensive.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "would buy" or "'d buy". Both options are the contracted form of "would buy" and indicate a hypothetical situation in the past. The speaker is expressing that they would have purchased the laptop if it had not been so expensive. The contraction "'d" is a shortened form of "would" and is commonly used in informal speech or writing.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The waiter will take your order as soon as you ________ (be) ready.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "are," 're. This is because the sentence is in the future tense and is referring to a future action of taking the order. In this context, "are" and "'re" are the correct forms of the verb "to be" to use with the subject "you."

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    I wouldn’t go to that restaurant if you ________ (pay) me to!

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "paid". This is because the sentence is expressing a strong negative sentiment towards going to the restaurant. The phrase "if you paid me to" is an idiomatic expression meaning that the speaker is unwilling to go to the restaurant under any circumstances, even if they were offered money.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    He’ll let you know his decision after he ________ (speak) to Sam.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "speaks" because it is the correct form of the verb "speak" in the present simple tense. In the sentence, it is stated that he will let you know his decision after he speaks to Sam, indicating that the action of speaking to Sam is yet to happen in the future. Therefore, the correct form of the verb should be "speaks" to match the subject "he" and the tense of the sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    You’d be a fantastic guitar player if you ________ (practise) more.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "practised." This is the past tense form of the verb "practice," which is used in the conditional sentence to indicate a hypothetical situation. The sentence suggests that if the person practiced more, they would become a fantastic guitar player.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    If you painted the living room white, it ________ (look) bigger.

    Explanation
    Painting the living room white would create an illusion of a bigger space. The color white reflects light, making the room appear brighter and more spacious. Therefore, using the conditional form "would look" suggests that the action of painting the living room white would result in the visual perception of a larger room.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    They won’t sell their house if they ________ (not repaint) it first.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "don't repaint" because the sentence is in the conditional form, indicating that the action of not repainting the house is a condition for not selling it. Therefore, if they do not repaint the house, they will not sell it.
