    • I have

    • I had

    • I had had

    • I have have

    Correct Answer
    A. I had
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I had" because the phrase "I wish" is used to express a desire for something that is not currently true or possible. In this case, the speaker is expressing a wish for more money, indicating that they do not currently have a lot of money. Using the past tense "I had" implies that the speaker had more money in the past but no longer does.

    • It soon rains.

    Correct Answer
    A. It would rain soon.
    Explanation
    The phrase "I wish" indicates a desire or hope for something that is not currently true. In this case, the speaker likes the rain and is expressing their wish for it to rain soon. The phrase "it would rain soon" suggests a hypothetical or conditional statement, indicating that the speaker is hoping for rain in the near future.

    • I have had a car.

    Correct Answer
    A. I had a car.

    • I studied more

    • I study more

    • I had studied more

    • I studied a lot

    Correct Answer
    A. I had studied more
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I had studied more." This is because the sentence is expressing a regret or a wish about the past. The use of the past perfect tense "had studied" indicates that the action of studying more should have been completed before the time being referred to in the sentence, which is when the person was at school.

    Correct Answer
    A. I were
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I were." In this sentence, the speaker is expressing a hypothetical or unreal condition. The use of "were" instead of "was" indicates that the speaker is talking about a situation that is contrary to reality. This is known as the subjunctive mood, which is used to express wishes, desires, or hypothetical situations.

    • The sun didn't come out

    Correct Answer
    A. The sun would come out
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "the sun would come out." This is because the sentence is expressing a wish or desire for the sun to come out during winter. The use of "would" indicates a hypothetical or unreal situation, which aligns with the expression of a wish.

    • I didn't stayed up late last night.

    • I wasn't stayed up late last night.

    Correct Answer
    A. I hadn't stayed up late last night.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I hadn't stayed up late last night." This answer is correct because it uses the correct verb tense, "hadn't," to indicate that the speaker did not stay up late the previous night. The other options use incorrect verb forms such as "didn't stayed" or "wasn't stayed," which do not match the proper grammar.
