Fill in the blank with going to and the verb given. Billy and George ............(climb)a mountain in Italy. ________

Explanation
Billy and George are planning to climb a mountain in Italy. The phrase "are going to climb" indicates their intention or future plan to engage in this activity. The contraction "'re" is an informal way of saying "are" and is used to match the subject "Billy and George."

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

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.

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.
