To answer this question, we need to find the word(s) in each sentence that should be replaced by the given phrases (such as, like, such as, including, and like). Let's analyze each sentence step by step:
a) The sentence states that Andy Murray plays tennis with great players. We need to indicate where the words "Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer" should go. Since these players are examples of great players, we can use the phrase "such as" to introduce them. Therefore, we put an arrow (1) before the word "such" to show that it should go before "Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer". The sentence should be written as: "Andy Murray plays tennis with great players (such as) Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer."
b) The sentence mentions that Andy plays in interesting countries. We need to indicate where the words "India and Thailand" should go. Since these countries are examples of interesting countries, we can use the word "like" to include them. Therefore, we put an arrow (1) before the word "like" to show that it should go before "India and Thailand". The sentence should be written as: "Andy plays in interesting countries (like) India and Thailand."
c) The sentence says that Andy sometimes wins important tournaments. We need to indicate where the words "the Cincinnatti Masters" should go. Since the Cincinnatti Masters is an example of an important tournament, we can use the phrase "such as" to introduce it. Therefore, we put an arrow (1) before the word "such" to show that it should go before "the Cincinnatti Masters". The sentence should be written as: "Andy sometimes wins important tournaments (such as) the Cincinnatti Masters."
d) The sentence states that Andy has a lot of support from his family, including his mother and his brother. We need to indicate where the word "including" should go. Since "including" is used to specify the members of Andy's family, we put an arrow (1) before the word "including" to show that it should go before "his mother and his brother". The sentence should be written as: "Andy has a lot of support from his family (including) his mother and his brother."
e) The sentence mentions that Andy gives interviews to major TV stations. We need to indicate where the words "the BBC and TVE" should go. Since these TV stations are examples of major TV stations, we can use the word "like" to include them. Therefore, we put an arrow (1) before the word "like" to show that it should go before "the BBC and TVE". The sentence should be written as: "Andy gives interviews to major TV stations (like) the BBC and TVE."
