2. In life ___________ can make a mistake; we're all human.

Explanation

The statement implies that everyone has the potential to make a mistake because we are all human. The word "anyone" accurately conveys this idea as it refers to any person, emphasizing that no one is exempt from making mistakes. The other options, such as "some people" or "someone," may imply that only certain individuals are prone to making mistakes, which does not align with the given statement. "Not anybody" is not a suitable option as it suggests that nobody can make a mistake, contradicting the initial statement.

3. My girlfriend__________born on the 2nd of September 1974.

Explanation

The correct answer is "was". This is because the sentence is referring to a specific point in the past when the girlfriend was born. The past tense form "was" is used to indicate an action or state that occurred at a specific time in the past.

Submit
4. I work as a teacher and my wife ___________too.

Explanation

The correct answer is "does". In this sentence, the subject "my wife" is singular, so we need to use the singular form of the verb "do". Therefore, the correct sentence is "I work as a teacher and my wife does too."

Submit
5. I think ___________taxi driver.

Explanation

The correct answer is "she's a." The question is asking for an explanation for the given statement "I think _________taxi driver." The statement is incomplete, but based on the options provided, "she's a" seems to be the most logical completion. This suggests that the person believes the subject of the conversation is a taxi driver.

Submit

7. She knows that she__________to pay now.

Explanation

The correct answer is "ought". "Ought" is used to express a moral obligation or duty. In this context, the speaker is aware that there is a requirement or expectation for her to pay now. Therefore, "ought" is the most appropriate choice to convey this sense of obligation.

9. I'll return the newspaper when I ……… through it.

Explanation

The correct answer is "have looked" because it is the correct verb tense to use in this sentence. The phrase "I'll return the newspaper" indicates a future action, and the phrase "when I have looked through it" suggests that the action of looking through the newspaper will be completed before the return. Therefore, the present perfect tense "have looked" is the appropriate choice.

Submit
10.  Did you ________ anywhere interesting last weekend?

Explanation
