    Je dis bonjour.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "J'ai dit bonjour" because it is the correct past tense form of the verb "dire" (to say) in the first person singular. The phrase "Je dis bonjour" is in the present tense, while "J'ai dit bonjour" indicates that the action of saying hello has already occurred in the past.

    Nous faisons nos devoirs.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Nous avons fait nos devoirs" because it is the past tense form of the verb "faire" (to do).

  • 6. 

    Je lis beaucoup de livres.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "J'ai lu beaucoup de livres." because the verb "lire" (to read) is in the past tense, so it requires the auxiliary verb "avoir" (to have) conjugated in the present tense ("ai") followed by the past participle of "lire" ("lu"). The phrase "beaucoup de livres" means "a lot of books" and remains the same in both sentences.
