    5. Do you enjoy _____?

    • to swim

    • swimming

    • swim

    • to swimming

    Correct Answer
    A. swimming
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "swimming" because it is the correct gerund form of the verb "to swim" that is used after the verb "enjoy." Gerunds are formed by adding -ing to the base form of the verb, and in this case, "swimming" functions as a noun to indicate the activity that someone enjoys.

    Rate this question:

    • graduate

    • graduate from

    • graduating

    • graduating from

    Correct Answer
    A. graduate from
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "graduate from". This is because the phrase "graduate from" is the correct phrasal verb to use when referring to completing or finishing university. The other options, "graduate", "graduating", and "graduating from", are not grammatically correct in this context.

    • together the house party with

    Correct Answer
    A. go to the house party with
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "go to the house party with". This answer is correct because it follows the correct grammatical structure of the sentence. The verb "go" is followed by the preposition "to", indicating the destination of the action. In this case, the destination is "the house party". The phrase "with us" indicates that the speaker is inviting the listener to accompany them to the party.

    • time-tabled

    • put on

    Correct Answer
    A. Scheduled
    Explanation
    The word "scheduled" is the correct answer because it means that the annual school play has been planned or arranged to take place at a specific time in the future. The phrase "it is scheduled for next week" indicates that the play has been organized and is expected to happen on a particular date.

    • Many works

    • Much works

    Correct Answer
    A. Much work
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "much work" because the word "work" is an uncountable noun, so it should be paired with "much" instead of "many." "Many" is used with countable nouns, while "much" is used with uncountable nouns. Therefore, the correct phrase is "much work."

    • To ask a question

    • to asking a question

    Correct Answer
    A. To ask a question
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "to ask a question" because the phrase "don't hesitate" implies that the action being suggested should be done without delay or reservation.

The other options, "consult to", "consult with", and "consult by", are not grammatically correct and do not convey the intended meaning.

    The blank in the response "I don't think so, _____" should be filled with "either". This is because "either" is used to show agreement with a negative statement. In this context, the speaker is agreeing that they don't think they need the big jackets because it is not very cold.

    The correct answer is "agree to". This is because when we "agree to" something, it means that we give our consent or approval to it. In this context, the sentence suggests that "they" did not give their consent or approval to John's plan. The other options, such as "agree with" or "agree about", do not convey the same meaning as "agree to" in this sentence.
