    Correct Answer
    A. You like
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "you like". The question is asking for the correct form of the verb "like" to match with the pronoun "you". In English, the verb "like" is conjugated as "like" for the pronoun "I", "you", "we", and "they", while it is conjugated as "likes" for the pronouns "he", "she", and "it". Therefore, the correct form to use with "you" is "like".

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "How / does."

"How" is used to ask about the frequency or manner of an action.

    Rate this question:

  • 16. 

    - ______ is the party? - Next weekend, I’m prepared!

    • Where

    • When

    • Why

    • Who

    Correct Answer
    A. When
    Explanation
    The response "Next weekend, I'm prepared!" implies that the person is ready and excited for an upcoming event or occasion. Therefore, the question "When is the party?" makes the most sense in this context, as it directly relates to the time or date of the event the person is referring to.

    Rate this question:

  • 17. 

    Why ______ the people inside the room?

    • Do

    • Does

    • Is

    • Are

    Correct Answer
    A. Are
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "are" because it agrees with the plural subject "people." In English, the verb "to be" conjugates as "am" for the first person singular (I), "is" for the third person singular (he, she, it), and "are" for all other persons (we, you, they). Since "people" is a plural noun, "are" is the appropriate form of the verb to use in this sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 18. 

    ______ she ______ soccer? - No, she ______ volley.

    • Do / play / plays

    • Does / plays / play

    • Does / play / play

    • Does / play / plays

    Correct Answer
    A. Does / play / plays
    Explanation
    The question is asking whether she plays soccer. In order to form a question with the third person singular subject "she," we need to use the auxiliary verb "does" followed by the base form of the main verb "play." Therefore, the correct question form is "Does she play soccer?" The answer to this question is "No," indicating that she does not play soccer. Instead, she plays volley. Since "she" is a third person singular subject, we use the base form of the main verb "play" without adding an "s" at the end. Therefore, the correct answer is "Does / play / plays."

    Rate this question:

    • Does

    • Are
