It appears that the question is not fully provided. Can you please provide the options for each verb?
To answer this question, we need to choose the correct form of each verb to complete the passage. Let's go through each verb one by one and analyze the options given:
1. The cows in the field:
Options:
a) eats
b) eat
c) ate
d) eaten
We need to choose the correct form of the verb here. Since the subject is plural (cows), we should use the plural form of the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is "eat."
2. the grass, and the bird on the fence:
Options:
a) sings
b) sang
c) sung
d) sing
Here, we need to choose the correct form of the verb to match the subject "the bird on the fence." The subject is singular, so we should use the singular form of the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is "sings."
3. The children on their way to school:
Options:
a) looks
b) look
c) looked
d) looking
Again, since the subject is plural (children), we should use the plural form of the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is "look."
4. at the bird. The stream among the trees:
Options:
a) runs
b) ran
c) run
d) running
Here, we need to choose the correct form of the verb to match the subject "the stream among the trees." The subject is singular, so we should use the singular form of the verb. Therefore, the correct answer is "runs."
To summarize the correct answers for each verb:
The cows in the field eat the grass, and the bird on the fence sings. The children on their way to school look at the bird. The stream among the trees runs quickly.
So, the correct answers are:
1) eat
2) sings
3) look
4) runs
