Careful with #13. The city is not bigger than the whole country, but is the largest city in the country = la ciudad más
#14 = Mañana requires the Future, not the
Past Subjunctive = viajaremos
#15 is an example of "imposition of will" and reqires the Subjunctive, because one person wants another to do something = coma
#16 Es preciso requires the Subjunctive. If you need a Review of when the use the Subjunctive, just ask. = salgas
#17 First of all Ud. is singular so the verb must be also. The Conditional (would you like) is best = Querría
#19 Era lástima requires the Subjunctive and because the main verb is Past Tense, the Subjunctive must be also =
supiera
#20 "Ya" often takes the Present Perfect, as it does here = they have already done = han hecho
Everything else was fine.

I'll send this to SraJMcGin.
P.S. I flagged this and I'll come back later to see if you have additional questions.
Sra
Sure! Here are the correct answers for the questions:
11. The correct answer is "fue escrito". To answer this question, you need to understand that the verb "escribir" (to write) is in the past tense. In this case, the past participle "escrito" is used with the helping verb "fue" (was) to form the past passive voice.
12. The correct answer is "quien". To answer this question, you need to identify the antecedent of the relative pronoun "chica". In this case, "chica" refers to Elisa, so we need to use the relative pronoun "quien" (who) to introduce the relative clause.
13. The correct answer is "la ciudad más". To answer this question, you need to compare Mexico City with the rest of the country. In this case, we use the superlative form "la ciudad más" (the most city) to indicate that it is the biggest city.
14. The correct answer is "viajaremos". To answer this question, you need to identify the future tense verb form that matches the subject "Paco y yo" (Paco and I). In this case, "viajaremos" (we will travel) is the correct future tense form of the verb.
15. The correct answer is "coma". To answer this question, you need to use the verb form that matches the subjunctive mood and the third-person singular subject. In this case, "coma" is the correct present subjunctive form of the verb "comer" (to eat).
16. The correct answer is "salgas". To answer this question, you need to use the verb form that matches the subjunctive mood and the second-person singular subject. In this case, "salgas" is the correct present subjunctive form of the verb "salir" (to leave).
17. The correct answer is "Quiera". To answer this question, you need to use the verb form that matches the subjunctive mood and the third-person singular subject. In this case, "Quiera" is the correct present subjunctive form of the verb "querer" (to want).
18. The correct answer is "busque". To answer this question, you need to use the verb form that matches the imperative mood and the formal second-person singular subject. In this case, "busque" is the correct formal command form of the verb "buscar" (to look for).
19. The correct answer is "supiera". To answer this question, you need to use the verb form that matches the subjunctive mood and the third-person singular subject. In this case, "supiera" is the correct past subjunctive form of the verb "saber" (to know).
20. The correct answer is "hemos hecho". To answer this question, you need to use the present perfect tense to indicate that the action "hacer" (to do) has been completed. In this case, "hemos hecho" (we have done) is the correct present perfect form of the verb.
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
