  1. Which sentence is grammatically correct?

    Answer: She doesn't like vegetables.

    With third-person singular subjects (she, he, it), the negative form uses 'does not' (doesn't) followed by the base form of the verb — 'like', not 'likes'.

  2. Fill in the blank: 'He _____ to school every day by bus.'

    Answer: goes

    For simple present tense with a third-person singular subject ('he'), the verb must take the '-s' ending: 'goes'.

  3. Which sentence correctly uses the present perfect tense?

    Answer: I have already eaten dinner.

    The present perfect is formed with 'have/has' + the past participle. 'Eaten' is the correct past participle of 'eat', and 'already' is properly placed before the past participle.

  4. Choose the correct article to complete the sentence: 'She wants to become _____ engineer.'

    Answer: an

    'An' is used before words that begin with a vowel sound. 'Engineer' starts with the vowel sound /ɛ/, so 'an engineer' is correct.

  5. Which sentence shows correct subject-verb agreement?

    Answer: Each of the boys is responsible for his work.

    'Each' is always singular and takes a singular verb ('is'). 'The news' is uncountable and singular ('is'), and 'neither of' with a singular verb is the standard formal rule.

  6. Fill in the blank: 'They _____ watching a movie when the lights went out.'

    Answer: were

    The past continuous tense uses 'was/were' + the '-ing' form. Since the subject is 'they' (plural), 'were watching' is the correct form to describe an action in progress in the past.
