    • Play

    • Go

    • Do

    • Have 

    Correct Answer
    A. Play
    Explanation
    The verb "play" is the correct answer because it is used to describe the action of participating in a sport or game. In this sentence, the speaker is indicating that they engage in the activity of playing football every week. The other options, "go," "do," and "have," do not accurately convey the meaning of participating in a specific sport or game.

    • Are

    • Is

    • Am

    • Be

    Correct Answer

    I ___ coffe.

    • No like 

    • Not like

    • Like don´t

    • Don´t like

    Correct Answer
    A. Don´t like
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "don't like" because it is the correct negative form of the verb "like" in the present tense. The word "don't" is the contraction of "do not" which is used with the pronoun "I" to form the negative. Therefore, the correct sentence is "I don't like coffee."

    Rate this question:

    It’s my birthday ___ Friday.

    • On

    • In

    • At

    • By

    Correct Answer

    • Am

    • Do

    • Have

    • Got

    Correct Answer
    A. Have
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "have". In this sentence, the verb "have" is used to indicate possession or experience of a headache. The verb "am" is used for states of being, "do" is used for actions, and "got" is a colloquial form of "have" that is not grammatically correct in this context.

    ‘What time is it?’                   ‘I have no ___’

    • Idea

    • Opinion

    • Answer

    • Time

    Correct Answer
    A. Idea

    The phrase "I have no idea" is commonly used to express that one does not know or have any knowledge about something. In this context, when asked about the time, the person is indicating that they do not have any knowledge or understanding of what time it is.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    My friend ___ in London

    • Living

    • Live

    • Lives

    • Is live

    Correct Answer
    A. Lives
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "lives" because it agrees with the subject "friend" which is singular. In English, when the subject is singular, we use the verb form that ends in -s or -es. Therefore, "lives" is the correct verb form to use in this sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    ___ these days

    • I never a newspaper buy

    • I never buy a newspaper

    • I buy never a newspaper

    • Never I buy a newspaper

    Correct Answer
    A. I never buy a newspaper
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I never buy a newspaper" because it follows the correct word order in English. In English, the subject typically comes before the verb, so "I" should come before "buy." Additionally, the adverb "never" is placed before the verb to indicate that the action of buying a newspaper does not happen. The other options have incorrect word order or do not adhere to standard English grammar rules.

    Rate this question:

    • To speak

    • Speaking

    • Speak

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    A vegetarian is someone ___ doesn’t eat meat.

    • Who

    • What 

    • Which

    • Whose

    Correct Answer
    A. Who
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "who" because it is used to refer to a person and is commonly used to introduce a relative clause. In this case, the relative clause "doesn't eat meat" describes the person who is a vegetarian.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Harry ___ his father’s car when the accident happened.

    • Was driving 

    • Drove

    • Had driven

    • Has been driving

    • Have worked

    • Work

    • Be working 

    • To work

    Correct Answer
    A. Be working 
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "be working". This is because the sentence is in the present continuous tense, indicating an action that is happening at the current moment. In this case, Joey's office light is still on, suggesting that he is currently working late tonight.

    Rate this question:

    Where ___?

    • Works Tom

    • Tom works

    • Tom does work

    • Does Tom work

    Correct Answer
    A. Does Tom work
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "does Tom work" because it follows the structure of a question in English. In a question, the auxiliary verb "do" is used to form the question, and it comes before the subject "Tom". The main verb "work" follows the subject. Therefore, "does Tom work" is the correct question form.

    Rate this question:

    • Carry

    • Wear

The phrase "Have you ever been" is the correct construction to ask about past experiences. The other options, such as "Did you ever go" and "Do you ever go", do not convey the same meaning of a past experience.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "which". In this sentence, "which" is used to introduce a relative clause that provides additional information about Jack going out with Helen. The phrase "I find hard to believe" is the main clause of the sentence, and the relative clause starting with "which" adds more detail to the statement.
