2.

Which form is correct?
- I drank.
- I drinked.
Correct Answer

A. I drank.

Explanation

The correct form is "I drank." This is because the past tense of the verb "drink" is formed by adding "-ed" to the base form of the verb. Therefore, "drinked" is incorrect.

Correct Answer(s)

A. Lived
A. Tried
A. Planned

Explanation

The verb forms "lived," "tried," and "planned" are correct. These forms follow the standard rules of verb conjugation in English. The incorrect forms "liveed," "planed," and "tryed" contain an extra "e" at the end, which is not necessary for the past tense of these verbs.

- Were
- Plaied
Correct Answer(s)

A. Had
A. Played
A. Was

Explanation

The Simple Past tense is used to describe actions that happened in the past and are now completed. The verb forms "had," "played," "was," and "were" all belong to the Simple Past tense. "Had" is the past tense of "have," "played" is the past tense of "play," and "was" and "were" are the past tense forms of the verb "be."

Correct Answer(s)
Andrew did not invite his friends.
Andrew didn't invite his friends.

Explanation
