    • Tiene

    Correct Answer
    A. Tienes
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "tienes" because the subject of the sentence is "tú" which is the second person singular pronoun in Spanish. The verb "tener" means "to have" and in the present tense, the conjugation for "tú" is "tienes". Therefore, the sentence translates to "You have a lot of homework."

    • Muestran

    Correct Answer
    A. Muestran
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "muestran" because the subject "Ellos" is a third-person plural pronoun, and the verb "mostrar" needs to agree with the subject in number and person. Therefore, the correct conjugation of "mostrar" for "Ellos" is "muestran."

    Correct Answer
    A. Puedo
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "puedo". In Spanish, the verb "poder" means "to be able to" or "can". In this sentence, the subject "Yo" (I) is expressing their ability to cook well. The correct conjugation of "poder" for the subject "Yo" is "puedo".

    • Jegan

    Correct Answer
    A. Juegan
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "juegan" because it is the correct conjugation of the verb "jugar" for the subject "ellos". In Spanish, when talking about a group of people (third person plural), the verb form ends in "-an". Therefore, "juegan" is the correct form of "jugar" for the subject "ellos" in this sentence, which means "They play basketball in the park."

    Correct Answer
    A. Dices
    Explanation

    • Empieza

    Correct Answer
    A. Empieza
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "empieza" because it agrees with the subject "el concierto" which is singular and in the third person. The verb "empezar" needs to be conjugated in the present tense to match the subject, and "empieza" is the correct conjugation for the third person singular form.

    • Cierra

    Correct Answer
    A. Cierra
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "cierra." In the sentence, "Ella (cerrar) las ventanas porque hace viento," the verb "cerrar" needs to be conjugated to agree with the subject "ella" (she). Since "ella" is a singular third-person pronoun, the correct conjugation is "cierra."

    ¿Cuánto (costar) esta bolsa?

    • Cuestas

    • Cuesta

    • Costa

    • Costas

    Correct Answer
    A. Cuesta
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "cuesta". In Spanish, the verb "costar" means "to cost". When asking about the price of something, we use the phrase "¿Cuánto cuesta?" which translates to "How much does it cost?". In this case, the question is asking about the cost of a bag, so the correct form of the verb "costar" to use is "cuesta".

    Correct Answer
    A. Volamos
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "volamos". In Spanish, the verb "volar" means "to fly". When conjugated in the first person plural form, "nosotros", the correct conjugation is "volamos". This form matches the subject pronoun "nosotros" and agrees with the present tense of the verb "volar". Therefore, the correct answer is "volamos".
