    • Do

    • Does

    Correct Answer
    A. Does
    Explanation

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Mary __________ at 6:30 am.

    • Wake up

    • Wakes up

    Correct Answer
    A. Wakes up
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "wakes up" because the sentence is in the present tense and the subject "Mary" is singular. In the present tense, when the subject is singular, we add an -s to the base form of the verb. Therefore, "wakes up" is the correct form of the verb for this sentence.

    They _______  classes at 8:00 am.

    • Start

    • Starts

    Correct Answer
    A. Start
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "start". In this sentence, the subject "they" is plural, so the verb should also be plural. "Start" is the correct plural form of the verb "to start" when referring to the subject "they".

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    She ___________her dog very much. (love)

    Correct Answer
    loves
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "loves" because it is the present tense form of the verb "love" and agrees with the subject "She". This means that the sentence is stating that "She" has a strong affection for her dog.

    • Walk

    • Walks

    Correct Answer
    A. Walk
    Explanation
    Margie and I walk our dog in the park every afternoon. The subject "Margie and I" is plural, so the verb should also be plural. "Walk" is the correct plural form of the verb to agree with the subject.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    He ________ books in the library. (read)

    Correct Answer
    reads
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "reads" because the sentence is in the present tense and the subject "he" requires the verb to be conjugated in the third person singular form.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    They _________ here very often. (not come - short form)

    Correct Answer
    don't come
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "don't come" because the sentence is in the present tense and is referring to a habitual action. The use of "don't" indicates the negation of the verb "come" in its short form. This implies that the subject does not frequently visit this place.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    I _______ yoga.(not do- short form)

    Correct Answer
    don't do
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "don't do." This is the short form of "do not do." The sentence is expressing that the person does not practice or engage in yoga.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Mary ________ Chinese. (not speak- short form)

    Correct Answer
    doesn't speak
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "doesn't speak" because the sentence is in the present tense and refers to Mary's ability to speak Chinese. The phrase "doesn't speak" is the short form of "does not speak," which is the correct negative form for the third person singular subject "Mary."
