1. How would you say to your sick friend?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Hope you get better soon!" because it is the most appropriate and empathetic response to a sick friend. It conveys well-wishes and shows concern for their well-being, expressing a genuine desire for their recovery. The other options, such as "That sounds good!" and "Congratulations!" are not suitable in the context of a sick friend, while "It's okay" may not convey enough empathy or support.

2. How would say to your friend on their birthday?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Happy birthday, wish you nothing but the best!" because it is the most appropriate and relevant response to someone's birthday. It expresses well-wishes and positivity, which is customary on birthdays. The other options are not suitable as they either express condolences, ask about well-being, or offer congratulations, which are not appropriate for a birthday greeting.

Submit
3. To whom birthday card is given?

Explanation

The correct answer is "A birthday friend" because the question asks who the birthday card is given to, and a birthday friend is the most logical choice. The other options (a sick friend, a graduated friend, and to mommy) do not specifically mention a birthday, so they are not the most appropriate answer in this context.

Submit
4. What is the text about?

Explanation

The text is about a wedding invitation for Samantha and Philips.

Submit
5. What would say to encourage someone?

Explanation

This answer is the most encouraging and motivating statement out of the given options. It shows support and belief in the person's abilities, boosting their confidence and giving them the assurance that they have what it takes to succeed.

Submit
6. ... a computer in my house

Explanation

The correct answer is "There is" because the phrase "a computer in my house" indicates the existence of a computer in a specific location. "There is" is used to express the existence of something singular.

Submit
7. What would you write to congratulate your friend on their graduation?

Explanation

The given answer "I'm so proud of you, congratulations on your graduation, keep up the good work!" is the most appropriate response to congratulate a friend on their graduation. It expresses pride, congratulatory wishes, and encouragement for their future endeavors. The other options are either too short or do not convey the same level of enthusiasm and support.

Submit
8. ... two pencils in my pencil case.

Explanation

The correct answer is "There are" because the phrase "two pencils" indicates that there is more than one pencil, so the plural form "are" should be used.

Submit
9. ... a desk in the class?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Is there." This question is asking about the existence of a desk in the class. "Is there" is the appropriate phrase to use when asking about the presence of something.

Submit
10. Not - marker - in - class - the - a  - there - is 

Explanation

The correct answer is "There is not a marker in the class." This sentence follows the correct word order and grammar structure. It states that there is no marker present in the class.

Submit
11. There – a – house – the – television – is – in - ?

Explanation

The correct answer is "Is there a television in the house?" This is the correct sentence structure in English to form a question. The other options do not follow the correct word order for a question.

Submit
12. Who is the bride of this wedding?

Explanation

The correct answer is Samantha Johnsons. This can be inferred from the question asking about the bride of the wedding. Among the given options, Samantha Johnsons is the only name that represents a potential bride.

Submit
13. When will the event be held?

Explanation

The correct answer is October 8th, 2017. This is because the question asks for the specific date on which the event will be held, and October 8th, 2017 is the only option that provides a specific date. The other options either mention a month and year without a specific date or are not relevant to the given question.

Submit
14. Where will the event be held?

Explanation

The event will be held at Olympian Events Hall.

Submit
15. Which sentence uses the passive voice correctly?

Explanation

The passive voice is used when the focus is on the action rather than the doer of the action. In this case, the action is "throwing," and the focus is on the ball being thrown. The correct structure for the passive voice is "object + form of 'be' + past participle (+ by + subject)." Option (a) follows this structure correctly.
