FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

I........... English very well.

Back

don't speak

FLASHCARD QUESTION

My sister ............. to the cinema very often.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

They always ........... TV in the evening.

Back

Correct answer: watch

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'watch' because the subject 'They' is plural. In present simple tense, plural subjects use the base form of the verb, which is 'watch'.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

The banks .............. on Sundays.

Back

don't open

Answer explanation

The correct choice is "don't open" because "banks" is plural. In English, we use "do not" (contracted to "don't") with plural subjects, while "doesn't" is used with singular subjects.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

My sister ............... in London.

Back

Correct answer: lives

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'lives' because it agrees with the singular subject 'sister'. The verb 'live' needs to be in the third person singular form, which is 'lives', to match the subject in the present tense.
