1. Choose the correct verb. I my bed now.
a) is making b) make c) doing d) am making
The correct answer is d) am making.
Explanation: In this sentence, the subject "I" is performing the action of making the bed in the present moment. To correctly express this, we need to use the present continuous tense, which is formed by using the helping verb "am" followed by the base form of the main verb, in this case, "making."
2. Choose the correct form of the verb in passive voice. He (to give) a lot of money last month.
a) was given b) was gave c) was give d) was gived
The correct answer is a) was given.
Explanation: In this sentence, the subject "He" is the receiver of the action, not the doer. When we want to use the passive voice to emphasize the receiver of the action, we use the past form of the helping verb "be" (in this case, "was") followed by the past participle form of the main verb, which is "given" in this case.
3. Define the verb. My homework had not been done correctly.
a) present continuous passive b) past continuous passive c) past perfect passive d) past simple passive
The correct answer is c) past perfect passive.
Explanation: In this sentence, the verb "had been done" indicates that the action of doing the homework occurred before a certain point in the past. Additionally, the passive voice is used, as the subject of the sentence (My homework) is the receiver of the action, not the doer. Therefore, we have a combination of the past perfect tense (formed by using the helping verb "had" and the past participle form of the main verb) and the passive voice.
4. Choose the correct degrees of adjectives. Kate's marks are than mine.
a) bad b) worse c) baddest d) the worst
The correct answer is d) the worst.
Explanation: In this sentence, we are comparing Kate's marks to the speaker's marks. When making a comparison and using the superlative form (the highest degree) of the adjective, we use the definite article "the" followed by the superlative form of the adjective, which is "the worst" in this case.

a) be b) has been c) had been d) was
The correct answer is a) be.
