2. The English Parliament meets in London.

Explanation

The statement is true because the English Parliament does indeed meet in London. London is the capital city of England and is where the Parliament is located. The English Parliament consists of two houses, the House of Commons and the House of Lords, and they convene in the Palace of Westminster in London. Therefore, it is accurate to say that the English Parliament meets in London.

3. The first palace of Westminster burnt down in the eighteenth century.

Explanation

The statement is false because the first palace of Westminster did not burn down in the eighteenth century. The original palace was built in the eleventh century and was used as the primary residence of the Kings of England until it was largely destroyed by a fire in 1834. The current Palace of Westminster, which houses the British Parliament, was built after the fire in the nineteenth century.

4. I have never seen a crocodile but my sister ... one in Thailand last year.

Explanation

The sentence is in the past tense, indicating that the action of seeing the crocodile occurred in the past. "Saw" is the correct past tense form of the verb "see" to use in this context.

Submit
5. Have you visited Jamaica ...?

Explanation

"Yet" is the correct answer because it is used to ask if someone has done something up until the present moment. In this question, the speaker is asking if the person has visited Jamaica up until now. The other options, "already" and "last year," do not fit the context of the question as they refer to actions that have already taken place in the past.

Submit
6. I have never ... a postcard.

Explanation

The correct answer is "sent". The verb "sent" is the past tense of the verb "send". In the given sentence, the speaker is referring to their past experience of never having sent a postcard. Therefore, "sent" is the appropriate verb form to use in this context.

Submit

Explanation

The correct answer is "tailor". A tailor is a person who is skilled in the making, mending, and altering of clothes, particularly suits, coats, and other outergarments. They work with fabrics, patterns, and measurements to create custom-fitted clothing for individuals. The answer "ailor" is incorrect as it is missing the first letter "t" which is necessary to form the word "tailor".

Submit

The given statement claims that it is the highest clock tower in the world. However, the explanation states that the answer is false, indicating that the statement is incorrect. Therefore, the clock tower in question is not the highest in the world.
