2. I've never _____ able to ice-skate well, but I keep practising.              

Explanation

The correct answer is "been". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about their past experiences with ice-skating. The word "been" is the past participle of the verb "be", and it is used to indicate a past state or condition. Therefore, "been" is the correct choice to show that the speaker has had a continuous experience of not being able to ice-skate well in the past.

Submit

3. You _____ use your mobile phone when you're in a 'quiet zone'.            

Explanation

The word "mustn't" indicates that it is not allowed or prohibited to use your mobile phone when you are in a "quiet zone". It implies that there is a rule or restriction in place that prohibits the use of mobile phones in this specific area. The other options "haven't to" and "don't have to" do not convey the same sense of prohibition or restriction.

Submit

4. Will you _____ pick me up at the airport tonight?            

Explanation

The phrase "be able to" is the correct answer because it is the most appropriate and grammatically correct option to complete the sentence. In this context, it implies asking if the person will have the capability or availability to pick the speaker up at the airport tonight.

Submit

5. He couldn't find a taxi so he _____ walk.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "had to". This is because the sentence implies that the person did not have any other option but to walk because they were unable to find a taxi. "Had to" indicates a necessity or obligation to do something, which fits the context of the sentence.

Submit

6. I have a problem with my mobile phone. What _____ do?            

Explanation

The correct answer is "should I". This is because the question is asking for advice or suggestions on what to do about the problem with the mobile phone. The phrase "should I" is commonly used to ask for recommendations or opinions in such situations.

Submit

7. You _____ start eating before everyone else – it's bad manners.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "shouldn't". This is because starting to eat before everyone else is considered bad manners. Using "shouldn't" implies that it is not appropriate or recommended to do so.

Submit

8. You _____ pay to go in museums in Britain. They're usually free.            

Explanation

In Britain, you don't have to pay to go into museums because they are usually free. This means that it is not necessary or obligatory for you to pay. The phrase "don't have to" indicates that there is no requirement or compulsion to pay for entry.

10. I've never _____ to dance salsa very well.            

Explanation

The phrase "I've never been able to dance salsa very well" suggests that the person has tried to dance salsa in the past but has not been successful or skilled at it. The use of "never" indicates a lack of ability or accomplishment in the past, and "been able" implies that despite attempts, the person has not achieved the desired level of skill in dancing salsa.

Submit

11. My sister _____ play the violin very well when she was young.            

Explanation

The word "could" is the correct answer because it is used to express past ability or skill. In this sentence, it indicates that the sister had the ability to play the violin well in the past.

Submit

12. You _____ touch that! It's dangerous.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "mustn't." This is because "mustn't" is used to express prohibition or to say that something is not allowed. In this context, it is being emphasized that touching the object is dangerous and should not be done.

Submit

13. Hurry up! We _____ be late.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "mustn't". This is because the sentence implies that it is important not to be late, so using "mustn't" conveys a strong prohibition or obligation to not be late. "Should" suggests a recommendation, while "don't have to" implies that it is not necessary to be on time.

Submit

14. If you really _____ smoke, do it outside.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "must". This is because the sentence is suggesting that if someone wants to smoke, they are required to do it outside. "Must" indicates a strong obligation or necessity.

Submit

15. What time _____ we have to leave?            

Explanation

The correct answer is "do". This is because the question is asking about the time we have to leave, which is a question about an action or event. In English, when asking questions about actions or events, we use the auxiliary verb "do" to form the question.

Submit

16. We're not allowed _____ in the office.    

Explanation

In this sentence, the phrase "not allowed" indicates a restriction or prohibition. The verb "to eat" is the correct choice because it matches the action being restricted. The phrase "in the office" provides context for where the restriction applies. Therefore, the correct answer is "to eat."

Submit

17. You _____ have to eat it if you don't like it.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "don't". This is because the sentence is expressing a lack of obligation or requirement to eat something if you don't like it. The word "don't" is a contraction of "do not" and is used to indicate the absence of necessity in this context.

Submit

18. I _____ able to read when I was four.            

Explanation

The word "was" is the correct answer because it indicates the past tense of the verb "to be." The sentence is referring to a past event, specifically when the person was four years old, so "was" is the appropriate verb form to use in this context.

Submit

19. We _____ answer your call right now. Please try again later.            

Explanation

The phrase "We're not able to" indicates that the person or group being referred to is currently unable to answer the call. This suggests that they may be busy or unavailable at the moment, and therefore unable to respond. The phrase "right now" further emphasizes the temporary nature of their unavailability, implying that they may be able to answer the call at a later time.

Submit

20. I hate not _____ able to say what I want in English.            

Explanation

The correct answer is "to be". In this sentence, the speaker is expressing their frustration or dislike towards not being able to say what they want in English. The phrase "not being able to" indicates an inability or lack of capability, and "to be" is the infinitive form of the verb that follows "not". Therefore, "to be" is the correct choice to complete the sentence.
