Grammar and Vocabulary Quiz

Where _____ live?

• you

• you do

What time _____ to school this morning?

• she got

• did she get

• did she got

• did she gets

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'did she get' because it uses the auxiliary verb 'did' for past tense questions. 'Did' requires the base form of the verb, which is 'get', not 'got' or 'gets'.

Be careful! You _____ a mistake.

• are makeing

• making

• are making

• made

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'are making' because it uses the present continuous tense, indicating an ongoing action. The phrase 'you are making a mistake' suggests that the mistake is currently happening.

He _____ breakfast at work.

• A. usually have

• B. have usually

• C. usually has

• D. usually eats

Answer explanation

The correct choice is C. 'usually has' because 'he' is a third-person singular subject, requiring the verb 'has' in the present tense. 'Usually eats' (D) is also correct but does not fit the structure of the sentence as well.

She _____ people who talk a lot.

• not likes

• doesn't like

• don't like

• does like

Answer explanation

The correct choice is "doesn't like" because it correctly uses the auxiliary verb "does" for the third person singular subject "she". The other options are grammatically incorrect in this context.

My cousin _____ history at university.

• A. studies

• B. studys

• C. studyes

• D. study

Answer explanation

The correct choice is A. 'studies' is the proper verb form for 'my cousin' (third person singular) in the present tense. 'Studys' and 'studyes' are incorrect, and 'study' does not match the subject-verb agreement.

_____ away last weekend?

• Did you go

• Did you went

• Went you

• Did you gone

Why _____?

• you're smiling

• do you smiling

• are you smiling

My father _____ work. He's retired.

• not

• doesn't

• isn't

The correct choice is "doesn't" because it is the contraction of "does not," which is used to indicate that the subject (my father) does not perform the action of working, aligning with the context of being retired.

What _____ you do for your last holiday?

• were

• did

• are

• will

Answer explanation

The correct choice is 'did' because the question refers to a past holiday. 'Did' is used for past actions, while 'were', 'are', and 'will' do not fit the context of asking about a completed event.
