- A.
I go to Paris by plane.
- B.
I goed to Paris by plane.
- C.
I went to Paris by plane.
Correct Answer
C. I went to Paris by plane.Explanation
The correct answer is "I went to Paris by plane" because it uses the correct past tense form of the verb "go" (went) and the correct preposition "by" to indicate the mode of transportation (plane). The other options, "I go to Paris by plane" and "I goed to Paris by plane," are incorrect because they use the present tense form of the verb and the incorrect past tense form of the verb, respectively.Rate this question:

- B.
I goed with my parents.
- C.
I go with my parents.
Correct Answer
A. I went with my parents.Explanation

I stay there two weeks.
- B.
I stayed there two weeks.
- C.
I staied there two weeks.
Correct Answer
B. I stayed there two weeks.Explanation
The correct answer is "I stayed there two weeks." This answer is correct because it uses the past tense verb "stayed" to indicate that the person is referring to a past event. Additionally, the correct spelling of "stayed" is used, which is the past tense of "stay." The phrase "two weeks" indicates the duration of time the person stayed there.Rate this question:

- B.
I meet two English girls.
- C.

Correct Answer
A. I met two English girls.Explanation
The correct answer is "I met two English girls." This is the correct answer because the verb "meet" should be in the past tense to match the past tense of "met." Additionally, "meet" is the correct past tense form of the verb, not "meeted."Rate this question:
