    • I'm going to see

    • I see

    Correct Answer
    A. I will see

    It is hard to walk in space because there is no…..…… .

    • Gravity

    • Waiting

    • Distance

    • Air

    Correct Answer
    A. Gravity
    Explanation
    Walking in space is difficult because there is no gravity. On Earth, gravity helps us maintain balance and stability while walking. Without gravity, there is no force pulling us towards the ground, making it challenging to walk or move around in space. Astronauts have to rely on other techniques like using handrails or foot restraints to navigate in the weightless environment of space.

    • Weightless

    • Purple

    • Disguised

    • Fascinated

    Correct Answer
    A. Weightless
    Explanation
    The ride at the amusement park went down so fast that my body felt weightless. This suggests that the ride's speed was so intense that it created a sensation of weightlessness, as if gravity was temporarily suspended. The word "weightless" accurately describes the feeling experienced during the rapid descent of the ride.

    Find the mistake in each of the following sentences, then correct itI spend next week in Alex. I've arranged.​

    Correct Answer
    am going to spend
    Explanation
    The mistake in the sentence is the use of the present tense "I spend" instead of the future tense "I am going to spend." To express a future action, the correct form should be "I am going to spend next week in Alex." The correction reflects the intention to spend the upcoming week in Alex.

    • Football

    • Gravity

    Correct Answer
    A. Gymnastics
    Explanation

Doing spins is a common skill in gymnastics, and someone who has been practicing gymnastics for years would likely have developed the necessary strength and technique to perform spins easily.

    • Launch

    • Set off

    • Beginig

    Correct Answer
    A. Launch

    • Queuing

    • Creeping

    • Crawling

    • Quarelling

    Correct Answer
    A. Queuing
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "queuing" because it means standing in line or waiting in an orderly manner, which is the most appropriate action for people waiting to take a bus. "Creeping" and "crawling" imply slow movement on the ground and are not suitable in this context. "Quarrelling" means arguing or fighting, which is not relevant to the situation described.

    • Become

    • Will become

    • Am becoming

    • Is going to become

    Correct Answer
    A. Is going to become
    Explanation
    The phrase "is going to become" is the correct answer because it indicates a future plan or intention. In the given sentence, the subject (she) has a plan to become an archaeologist after leaving university. The use of "is going to" implies a planned or intended action in the future. The other options ("become," "will become," "am becoming") do not convey the same sense of future intention as clearly as "is going to become."

    Explanation
    The expert carefully examined the painting and then said it was not original. This suggests that the expert thoroughly inspected the painting, possibly looking for specific details or signs that would indicate its authenticity. By using the word "examined," it implies that the expert conducted a detailed analysis of the painting, allowing them to confidently determine that it was not an original piece.

    Correct Answer
    A. Currently
    Explanation

    • Picking

    • Will pick

    • Are picking

    Correct Answer
    A. Are picking
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "are picking". This is because the sentence is in the present continuous tense, indicating an action that is happening at the present moment. In this case, "picking" is the present continuous form of the verb "pick", which is the appropriate verb choice to match the tense of the sentence.

    One of the….……on my bicycle wheel needs to be repaired. - ProProfs

    One of the….……on my bicycle wheel needs to be repaired.

    • Handles

    • Pedals

    • Chains

    • Spokes

    Correct Answer
    A. Spokes
    Explanation
    The spokes are the thin rods or wires that connect the hub of the bicycle wheel to the rim. They provide support and stability to the wheel, allowing it to maintain its shape and bear weight. If one of the spokes is damaged or broken, it can cause the wheel to become unbalanced or wobbly, making it difficult to ride the bicycle. Therefore, if a repair is needed on a bicycle wheel, it is likely that one of the spokes needs to be fixed.
