9.  I can.............. Spanish.

Explanation

The correct answer is "speak". This is because the sentence is asking for the correct verb form to fill in the blank. "Speaking" is a gerund form and does not fit grammatically in this context.

Submit
15. I                 most of my money on smart phones.  

Explanation

The correct answer is "spend." This is because the sentence states that the person spends most of their money on smartphones. "Save" and "collect" imply that the person is keeping or accumulating money, which contradicts the statement. "Lend" suggests that the person is giving money to someone else, which is not mentioned in the sentence. Therefore, "spend" is the most appropriate choice.

Submit

Explanation

The correct answer is "play" because it is the base form of the verb and is used to talk about the general action of playing tennis. The other options are not grammatically correct in this context. "To play" is an infinitive form and would require a subject before it, such as "I want to play tennis." "Playing" is a gerund form and would require a helping verb, such as "I am playing tennis." "Plays" is the third person singular form and would require a subject, such as "He plays tennis."

Submit
17.  Many types of watches                   in Switzerland.

Submit
19. I                       18 years old when I started my first job.

Explanation

The correct answer is "was" because the sentence is in the past tense and refers to a specific point in time when the person started their first job. "Were" is incorrect because it is the plural form and does not agree with the singular subject "I". "Had" is incorrect because it implies that the person had already started their job before they turned 18, which is not stated in the sentence. "Am" is incorrect because it is the present tense and does not match the past tense of the sentence.

Submit
20. You're from Liverpool,..................... ?
