    Transform the next sentence from the British form of expressing possession to the American way:"She hasn’t got a cat."

    Transform the next sentence from the British form of expressing possession to the American way:"Has Jack got a pet?"

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Does Jack have a pet?, does Jack have a pet?" The question is asking for the sentence to be transformed from the British form of expressing possession to the American way. In American English, the word "got" is typically omitted when expressing possession, so it is replaced with "have". Therefore, the sentence "Has Jack got a pet?" is transformed into "Does Jack have a pet?"

    Transform the next sentence from the American form of expressing possession to the British way:"The sisters have great teachers."

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "The sisters have got great teachers." This is the correct transformation from the American form of expressing possession to the British way. In British English, it is common to use the phrase "have got" to express possession, whereas in American English, it is more common to simply say "have." Therefore, the sentence is transformed by adding "got" after "have" to align with British English usage.

In British English, "have they got" is used instead of "do they have" to indicate possession. The sentence is correctly transformed by replacing "do they have" with "have they got".

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct gerund phrase that completes the sentence is "swimming at the beach is safe."

    Explanation
    The correct gerund phrase to complete the sentence is "making reservations for overnight guests." This phrase functions as the subject complement in the sentence, explaining the nature of the job. The gerund "making" is used to show the ongoing action of making reservations, and "for overnight guests" specifies the purpose or the recipients of the reservations.
