Study Notes
English Grammar
-
The correct answer is a) play.
-
The sentence structure requires the base form of the verb after "would rather".
-
"To play" is the infinitive form, "played" is the past tense, and "playing" is the present participle.
-
The correct answer is c) met.
-
The sentence describes a past event, so the past tense is required.
-
"Have met" indicates a completed action in the past, typically used with a time frame like "since" or "for".
-
"Meeting" is the present participle, used for ongoing actions.
-
The correct answer is c) arrived.
-
The sentence uses the past tense "was having" to describe the background action, so the past tense "arrived" is necessary to describe the friend's action.
-
"Arrive" is the base form, "was arriving" is the past continuous tense, and "has arrived" is the present perfect tense.
-
The correct answer is c) went.
-
The sentence structure uses the past continuous tense "were watching" for the background action, and the past tense "went" is required to describe the light going out.
-
"Go" is the base form, "was going" is the past continuous tense, and "going" is the present participle.
