    Explanation
    The object described in the question is used for traveling over snow and ice with long, narrow strips of wood or metal under it instead of wheels. The word "sledge" fits this description perfectly. The word "ledge" does not fit the description as it refers to a narrow horizontal surface projecting from a wall or cliff.

    A large mammal that eats fishand lives partly in the sea and partly on land or ice.s _ _ _

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "seal, eal". A seal is a large mammal that eats fish and lives partly in the sea and partly on land or ice. The word "seal" matches the given description perfectly. Additionally, the letters "eal" also match the description as they are the ending letters of the word "seal". Hence, both "seal" and "eal" are valid answers for the given question.

    A type of gloves with a single part for all the fingers and a separate part for the thumb.m _ _ _ _ _ _

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "mittens." Mittens are a type of gloves that have a single part for all the fingers and a separate part for the thumb. The alternative answer "ittens" is not a correct word and does not fit the description given in the question.

  • 5. 

    A large area of ice floating in the sea.i _ _   _ _ _ _

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ice floe" because it accurately describes a large area of ice floating in the sea. The second option, "ce floe," is not a valid phrase and does not accurately describe the given definition.

    • A.

      Isn't he

    • B.

      Hasn't it

    • C.

      Isn't it

    Correct Answer
    C. Isn't it
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "isn't it." This is because the question is asking for confirmation or agreement, and "isn't it" is a common phrase used to seek agreement or confirmation.

    • A.

      May become

    • B.

      Might becoming

    • C.

      Might to become

    Correct Answer
    A. May become
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "may become" because it suggests a possibility or likelihood of the winters in the Arctic becoming shorter. The word "may" indicates uncertainty or potential, which aligns with the idea that the duration of winters in the Arctic could change in the future.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    You like animals, ...?

    • A.

      Do you

    • B.

      Don't you

    • C.

      Aren't you

    Correct Answer
    B. Don't you
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "don't you." This is because the question is asking for agreement or confirmation of the statement "You like animals." The phrase "don't you" is a tag question that is commonly used to seek confirmation or agreement. In this case, it is used to ask if the person likes animals as well.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    There aren't many polar bears left, ...?

    • A.

      Aren't they

    • B.

      Aren't there

    • C.

      Aren't it

    Correct Answer
    B. Aren't there
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "aren't there." This is because the sentence is in the negative form and is asking for confirmation. When asking a question in English, we use the auxiliary verb "do" to form the question. In this case, the subject "polar bears" is plural, so we use "aren't" as the contraction of "are not." The word "there" is used to refer to the existence or presence of something, so it is appropriate in this context.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    You will join our expedition to the Arctic, ...?

    • A.

      Will you

    • B.

      Won't you

    • C.

      Do you

    Correct Answer
    B. Won't you
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "won't you." This is because the phrase "won't you" is used to make a polite invitation or offer, and in this context, it is asking if the person will join the expedition to the Arctic. The other options, "will you" and "do you," do not convey the same sense of invitation or offer.
