Question 1

Choose the correct verb form to complete the sentence: 'The sun in the east.'

Accepted Answer

The correct option is rises. Universal truths and scientific facts are always expressed in the Simple Present Tense. Since 'The sun' is a third-person singular noun, the verb takes 's' (rises).

Question 2

Fill in the blank with the correct form of the verb: 'She a book at the moment.'

Accepted Answer

The correct option is is reading. The expression 'at the moment' indicates an action happening right now (at the time of speaking), which requires the Present Continuous Tense (is/am/are + verb-ing).

Question 3

Fill in the blank with the appropriate tense form: 'He playing football since 4 PM.'

Accepted Answer

The correct option is has been. The time preposition 'since 4 PM' shows that an action started in the past and is still continuing in the present. This structure requires Present Perfect Continuous Tense (has/have + been + verb-ing).

Question 4

Identify the correct verb form: 'I a new bicycle yesterday.'

Accepted Answer

The correct option is bought. The time indicator 'yesterday' specifies a completed action at a definite time in the past, requiring the Simple Past Tense (V2).

Question 5

Choose the correct option: 'The train before we reached the station.'

Accepted Answer

The correct option is had left. When two actions happened in the past, the earlier action takes the Past Perfect Tense (had + V3) and the later action takes the Simple Past Tense.
