    Correct Answer
    is not going to come, isn't going to come
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "is not going to come, isn't going to come" because the sentence is in the negative form and refers to Susie's future action of not coming with us to the park. The verb "is not going to come" is used for the third person singular subject "Susie," while "isn't going to come" is used for the other subjects. Both verb forms are correct and convey the same meaning.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

     We...........(not drive) to Scotland this year.________

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "are not going to drive, aren't going to drive" because the sentence is in the future tense and the negative form is required. The auxiliary verb "are" is used with the subject "we" to form the negative future tense, and "not going to drive" is the correct negative form of the verb "drive". Additionally, "aren't going to drive" is a contraction of "are not going to drive" and is also grammatically correct in this context.

    Jacob and Alex got up very late this morning. They.....(miss) their train?________

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    Jacob and Alex got up very late this morning, indicating that they did not have enough time to catch their train. The phrase "are going to miss" implies a future action, suggesting that they will not be able to catch the train. The contraction "'re going to miss" is a shortened form of "are going to miss" and is used to indicate the same future action. Therefore, both options suggest that Jacob and Alex will miss their train due to waking up late.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "is playing, 's playing". These sentences are in the present continuous tense, which is used to talk about actions happening at the present moment or in the near future. The other options ("will play, will play" and "is playing, will play") both include the future tense, indicating that the actions will happen in the future. However, the sentence "is playing, 's playing" is about an action happening this afternoon, which is not in the future.
