Questions and Answers

1.

A ella _____ gustaba hacer alpinismo.
- A.
  
  Ser
- B.
  
  Le
- C.
  
  Era
- D.
  
  Te
Correct Answer
B. Le

Explanation
In this sentence, the correct answer is "le". The verb "gustaba" indicates that the subject of the sentence (ella) likes or enjoys doing something. In Spanish, when expressing likes or dislikes, the indirect object pronoun "le" is used to indicate who the action is pleasing to. Therefore, the correct sentence would be "A ella le gustaba hacer alpinismo", which translates to "She liked doing mountaineering".

- A.
  
  Nosotros
- B.
  
  Ellos
- C.
  
  Yo
- D.
  
  Les
Correct Answer
D. Les

Explanation
The correct answer is "Les." "Les" is not a pronoun, but a pronoun object. It is used to indicate the indirect object of a sentence. The other options, "Yo," "Nosotros," and "Ellos," are all pronouns that can be used as subjects in a sentence.

- B.

- C.
  
  Son--should be replaced with sois
- D.
  
  Muy
Correct Answer
B. Os-should be replaced with ellos

Explanation
The correct answer is "Os-should be replaced with ellos." In Spanish, "os" is a reflexive pronoun used with the second person plural (vosotros), while "ellos" is used for the third person plural. Since the sentence is referring to a group of people who are being described as modest, the pronoun "ellos" is the appropriate choice.

To say "I like" which pronoun/indirect object pronoun would you use in the sentence?
- A.
  
  Yo
- B.
  
  Me
Correct Answer
B. Me

Explanation
In the sentence "I like," the pronoun/indirect object pronoun that would be used is "me." This is because "me" is the correct pronoun to use when referring to oneself as the indirect object of the verb "like." In this case, "I" is the subject of the sentence and "like" is the verb, so "me" is the appropriate pronoun to complete the sentence.

- D.

  El
- C.

- D.

Explanation
In this sentence, the correct answer is "le". This is because "le" is the indirect object pronoun used to refer to the person to whom the advertising is of interest. In Spanish, the indirect object pronoun "le" is used to indicate that something is of interest to someone. Therefore, the sentence translates to "Advertising is of interest to you."

Correct Answer

Explanation
The error in the given sentence is with the pronoun "yo". Instead of "yo", it should be "me".

So, the correct sentence would be "Me encantaba jugar con los muñecos."

- C.
  
  Ellos
- D.

Where is the error?"Me jugabas con mis amigos"
- A.
  
  Me--should be "te"
- B.
  
  Jugabas--should be jugabo
- C.
  
  Me--should be tu
- D.
  
  Jugabas--should be jugaba
Correct Answer
C. Me--should be tu

Explanation
The error in the given sentence is the use of "me" instead of "tu". The correct sentence should be "Tu jugabas con mis amigos" which means "You used to play with my friends". The use of "me" indicates that the speaker is the one playing with their own friends, whereas the correct form "tu" indicates that the person being referred to is the one playing with the speaker's friends.

The correct translation of "We really like to dance" is "Nos gusta mucho bailar" in Spanish. This is because "nos gusta" means "we like" and "mucho bailar" means "to dance a lot". The other options are incorrect because they either use the wrong verb form or do not include the correct word order.

Explanation
The correct translation of "You (formal) are interested in public relations?" is "A usted le interesan las relaciones publicas."
