    Break broke ________

    • Broken

    • Breaking

    • Break dance

    • Bike

    Correct Answer
    A. Broken
    Explanation
    The word "break" is the base form of the verb, while "broke" is the past tense form. The answer "broken" is the past participle form of the verb "break." Past participles are used to form the perfect tenses and passive voice constructions. In this case, "broken" is used to describe something that has been fractured or damaged in the past.

    • Looked

    Correct Answer
    A. Seen
    Explanation
    The word "saw" is the past tense of the verb "see." In this sentence, the word "seen" is the past participle form of the verb "see." It is used to indicate that the action of seeing has already happened. Since "seen" is the correct past participle form of "see" in this context, it is the correct answer.

    • Written

    Correct Answer
    A. Written
    Explanation
    The word "write" is in the past tense, and the word "written" is also in the past tense. "Write" and "written" are forms of the same verb, with "write" being the base form and "written" being the past participle form. Therefore, "written" is the correct answer as it matches the tense of the word "write" in the sentence.

    • Taken

    • Walked

    • Talked

    Correct Answer
    A. Taken
    Explanation
    The verb "take" is in the past tense, so the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence would also be in the past tense. "Taken" is the past participle form of the verb "take" and is the correct answer in this context.

    • Five

    • Fallen

    • Falling

    Correct Answer
    A. Fallen
    Explanation
    The verb "fall" is in the past tense form "fell". In order to form the past participle of the verb, we add "-en" to the base form. Therefore, the correct past participle form of "fall" is "fallen".

    Sleep slept ______

    • Slept

    Correct Answer
    A. Slept
    Explanation
    The word "slept" is the past tense form of the verb "sleep". In the given sentence, "sleep" is already in the past tense, so we need to use the past tense form of the verb to maintain consistency. Therefore, "slept" is the correct answer.

    A. Been

  • 9. 

    Lose lost _____

    • Won

    • Loser

    • Been

    • Lost

    Correct Answer
    A. Lost
    Explanation
    The word "lose" is the base form of the verb, while "lost" is the past tense form. The blank space requires a word that is in the past tense to maintain grammatical consistency. "Lost" is the correct answer as it fits the context of the sentence and completes the sentence structure.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Have had ______

    • Have got

    • Has

    • Had

    • Haven't

    Correct Answer
    A. Had
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "had." This is because the phrase "have had" is used to indicate an action that started in the past and is still ongoing or has recently ended. In this case, "had" is the past tense form of the verb "have," which fits the context of the sentence.
