To find the correct answer for each question, you need to identify the reflexive verb in the sentence and determine whether it should be conjugated in the regular form or the reflexive form. Reflexive verbs indicate actions that a subject performs on themselves.
1. In the first question, the reflexive verb is "lavarse" (to wash oneself) and the subject "Josefina" correctly conjugates it as "se lava" (she washes herself) when talking about washing her hands in the sink. However, the verb "lava" is not reflexive and should be used when talking about washing clothes.
2. In the second question, the reflexive verb is "ponerse" (to put on oneself) and the subject "(yo)" incorrectly conjugates it as "pongo" (I put). The correct reflexive form would be "me pongo" (I put on myself) when talking about putting something on.
3. In the third question, the reflexive verb is "levantarse" (to get up) and the subject "(nosotros)" incorrectly conjugates it as "levantamos" (we get up). The correct reflexive form would be "nos levantamos" (we get up) when talking about getting up before an exam. However, the verb "levantar" is not reflexive and should be used when talking about lifting something.
4. In the fourth question, the reflexive verb is "hacerse" (to ask oneself) and the subject "Los estudiantes" correctly conjugates it as "hacen preguntas" (they ask themselves questions) when talking about students raising their hands and asking questions.
Remember to identify the reflexive verb in the sentence and conjugate it accordingly to answer the question correctly.
