Tim .... some photos of the elephants.

Correct Answer
A. TookExplanation
The word "took" is the correct answer because it is the past tense form of the verb "take". In this context, it implies that Tim captured or obtained some photos of the elephants. The word "put" does not fit the sentence as it does not convey the action of capturing photos. Similarly, the word "made" does not make sense in this context as it does not describe the action of taking photos.Rate this question:

A. FasterExplanation
The word "faster" is the comparative form of the adjective "fast," indicating a higher degree of speed than the base form. "Fastest" is the superlative form, indicating the highest degree of speed among multiple things or individuals. Therefore, "faster" is the correct answer as it represents a comparison between two things or individuals in terms of speed.Rate this question:
