Right.
What do you think about 3?
To answer the first question, it involves determining the correct verb form to complete the sentence. In this case, the correct answer is:
a. were, weren't
To arrive at this answer, consider the subject of the sentence ("you") and the tense of the verb needed ("determined"). The correct verb form for "you" in the past tense is "were." Additionally, the negative form of "to be" (not) should be used after the comma, making the correct answer "weren't."
For the second question, let's analyze the options:
a. hurried, fixed
b. hurry, fix
c. hurried, fixing
d. hurried, was fixed
The best answer would be:
c. hurried, fixing
The context of the sentence implies that the bus driver is taking action to make up for lost time. The verb form "hurried" is correct, and since it is followed by "while," the verb form "fixing" should be used to show an ongoing action at that time.
Finally, for the third question, the correct answer is:
d. to take
To determine this, consider the verb form needed after the word "promise." In this case, the verb form "to take" is the most appropriate choice, indicating the action of taking a vacation in the future.
