2. Translate I am 11 years old.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Yo tengo once anos." This sentence translates to "I am 11 years old" in English. It uses the correct verb "tener" (to have) to express age, and the number "once" (eleven) to specify the age. The word "anos" means "years" in Spanish.

Submit
3. What means to be hungry?

Explanation

The correct answer is "tener hambre" which means "to be hungry" in Spanish. This phrase is used to express the feeling of hunger. It is a common expression used to indicate the need or desire for food.

Submit
4. Translate "those" (away from both the speaker and the person being spoken to) feminine.

Explanation

The correct answer is "aquellas". In Spanish, the word "aquellas" is used to refer to feminine objects or people that are far from both the speaker and the person being spoken to. It is the feminine plural form of the demonstrative pronoun "aquella".

Submit
5. _________ hombre es nuestro vecino; vive en esa casa.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Este". In the given sentence, the word "hombre" is masculine singular, so we need to use the masculine singular form of the demonstrative adjective. "Este" is the masculine singular form of "this" in Spanish, and it agrees with "hombre". Therefore, "Este hombre" means "This man".

Submit
6. What means to be careful?

Explanation

To be careful means to exercise caution or to be cautious in order to avoid potential harm or mistakes. "Tener cuidado" is a Spanish phrase that directly translates to "to have care" or "to be careful." This phrase is commonly used to remind someone to be cautious and attentive in their actions or decisions to prevent any negative consequences. It is an important trait to possess in order to ensure safety and avoid accidents or errors.

Submit
7. Este animal es nuestro perro; _____ no es gordo.

Explanation

The correct answer is "este". In Spanish, the word "este" is used to refer to a masculine singular noun that is close to the speaker. In this sentence, "este" is used to refer to the animal, which is the speaker's dog. The word "este" is also used because "perro" is a masculine singular noun. The word "esta" would be used if the noun were feminine, and "aquella" would be used if the noun were far from the speaker.

Submit
8. ______ chicas, no estas, son de Albert City.

Explanation

The correct answer is "Aquellas" because it agrees with the feminine noun "chicas" and indicates a distance from the speaker. The use of "Aquellas" suggests that the girls being referred to are further away from the speaker compared to "Estos" or "Eso".

Submit
9. What means to be scared?

Explanation

To be scared means to have fear or to be afraid. "Tener miedo" is the correct answer because it directly translates to "to have fear" in English. The other options, "tener frio" means "to be cold" and "tener cuidado" means "to be careful", which do not accurately convey the meaning of being scared.

Submit
10. What do you use with an infinitive when you want to say you have to do something?

Explanation

When you want to say that you have to do something, you use the phrase "tener que" in Spanish. This phrase is commonly used to express obligation or necessity. Therefore, the correct answer is "tener que".

Submit
11. What means to be thirsty?

Explanation

"Tener sueño" means to be sleepy in Spanish. This phrase is used to describe the state of feeling tired and wanting to sleep.

Submit
13. Estas senoras son las hermanas de ______ hombres.

Explanation

The correct answer is "aquellos" because it agrees in gender and number with "hombres," which is masculine and plural. "Aquellos" is the plural form of "aquel," meaning "those" in English.

Submit
14. Translate "that" (near the person being spoken to) masculine.

Explanation

The correct answer is "ese" because "ese" is the masculine form of "that" when it is used to refer to something near the person being spoken to. "Aquellas" and "esa" are both feminine forms of "that" and do not match the masculine form required in this context.

Submit
15. _____ es muy curioso.

Explanation

"Esto" is the correct answer because it is used to refer to something that is close to the speaker in terms of time or location. In this case, the speaker is describing something as "very curious," and since they are talking about it in the present moment, "esto" is the appropriate choice. "Aquella" and "esa" would be used to refer to something that is further away from the speaker in time or location.

Submit
16. What do you use with an infinitive to feel like doing something

Explanation

To express the desire or feeling of wanting to do something, the phrase "tener ganas de" is used. This phrase translates to "to feel like" or "to have the desire to" in English. Therefore, when you want to indicate that you feel like doing something, you would use "tener ganas de" followed by the infinitive form of the verb.

Submit
17. ¿Cuando vienes a _____ casa?

Explanation

The correct answer is "nuestra" because the question is asking "When are you coming to our house?" The word "nuestra" is the feminine form of "our" in Spanish, which matches with the feminine noun "casa" (house).

Submit
18. What means to be lucky?

Explanation

To be lucky means to have good fortune or to experience favorable circumstances. In this context, "tener suerte" translates to "to have luck" in Spanish. This phrase implies that someone is fortunate or has had positive outcomes in their life. It can refer to various aspects such as winning a lottery, finding opportunities, or avoiding negative situations.

Submit
19. Veo a Maria y a _____ familia a la cine.

Explanation

The correct answer is "su" because the sentence is referring to Maria's family, not the speaker's or the listener's family. "Su" is the possessive pronoun that means "his/her/their" in Spanish, indicating that it is Maria's family that the speaker sees at the cinema.

Submit
20. Estudio _____ flashitas par la clase de Espanol.

Explanation

The correct answer is "mis" because "estudio" is a first-person singular verb, which means it refers to the speaker. Therefore, the possessive pronoun that matches with the first-person singular is "mis."
