Multiple Choice Test 1

The correct answer is "isn't it". This is because the question is asking for confirmation or agreement, and "isn't it" is a commonly used phrase in English to seek confirmation or agreement with a statement. It is used to imply that the speaker believes the statement to be true and is seeking agreement from the listener.

The correct answer is "on Tuesday" because it is the correct preposition to use when referring to a specific day of the week.

Tomorrow is Paul's birthday, so it would be appropriate to celebrate it. Celebrating someone's birthday is a common way to show joy and appreciation for their special day. Praise, honor, and congratulate are also positive actions, but they may not specifically relate to a birthday celebration.

The correct answer is "three weeks ago". This phrase correctly indicates that the accident happened in the past, specifically three weeks prior to the present moment.

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.

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.

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.

The correct answer is "take place" because it is the correct phrasal verb to use when referring to a scheduled event or meeting. "Hold on" means to wait, "hold place" and "take on" do not make sense in the context of a meeting.

The correct answer is "much money" because the word "pay" is followed by a non-countable noun, which should be paired with "much" instead of "many".

The phrase "keep in mind" means to remember or consider something. In this context, it is suggesting that the person should remember or consider the fact that Bill is just a beginner at this level when evaluating his performance in class.

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.

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."

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. In this context, the verb "ask" needs to be in its infinitive form, which is "to ask." Therefore, the correct phrase is "don't hesitate to ask a question."

The correct answer is "go skiing" because it is the correct verb phrase to use when referring to the activity of skiing. The phrase "go skiing" indicates the action of participating in the sport of skiing, which is the appropriate response to the question about what to do on Saturday or Sunday when it is snowing.
