Which sentence is grammatically correct?
Answer: I went to the market yesterday.
'Yesterday' indicates the past, so the past tense 'went' must be used.
Identify the error: 'The team are playing good today.'
Answer: Both B and C are correct
In most English contexts, 'team' is treated as singular (use 'is'), and adverb 'well' should be used to describe the verb 'playing', not the adjective 'good'.
Choose the sentence with correct use of articles:
Answer: She is an honest woman.
'Honest' begins with a silent 'h' so the vowel sound /ɒ/ follows the article. 'An' is used before vowel sounds.
Which sentence correctly uses the past perfect tense?
Answer: She had finished her homework before dinner.
Past perfect (had + past participle) is used for an action completed before another past action.
Find the correctly punctuated sentence:
Answer: The girl who won the prize is my sister.
The relative clause 'who won the prize' is a defining/restrictive clause that identifies which girl — no commas needed.
Choose the sentence that is free from error:
Answer: Let you and me solve this problem.
After 'Let', the objective case pronoun 'me' (not subjective 'I') must be used.
