    • True

    • False

    • Doesn't say

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the first palace of Westminster did not burn down in the eighteenth century. The original palace was built in the eleventh century and was used as the primary residence of the Kings of England until it was largely destroyed by a fire in 1834. The current Palace of Westminster, which houses the British Parliament, was built after the fire in the nineteenth century.

    • Saw

    • Seen

    • Has seen

    Correct Answer
    A. Saw
    Explanation
    The sentence is in the past tense, indicating that the action of seeing the crocodile occurred in the past. "Saw" is the correct past tense form of the verb "see" to use in this context.

    Have you visited Jamaica ...?

    • Yet

    • Already

    • Last year

    Correct Answer
    A. Yet
    Explanation
    "Yet" is the correct answer because it is used to ask if someone has done something up until the present moment. In this question, the speaker is asking if the person has visited Jamaica up until now. The other options, "already" and "last year," do not fit the context of the question as they refer to actions that have already taken place in the past.

    I have never ... a postcard.

    • Spent

    • Sent

    Correct Answer
    A. Sent
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "sent". The verb "sent" is the past tense of the verb "send". In the given sentence, the speaker is referring to their past experience of never having sent a postcard. Therefore, "sent" is the appropriate verb form to use in this context.

    The correct answer is "tailor". A tailor is a person who is skilled in the making, mending, and altering of clothes, particularly suits, coats, and other outergarments. They work with fabrics, patterns, and measurements to create custom-fitted clothing for individuals. The answer "ailor" is incorrect as it is missing the first letter "t" which is necessary to form the word "tailor".

    Whenever the words “Big Ben” are spoken, people all over the world think of the large clock in London near the Palace of Westminster where the English Parliament meets. In fact, Big Ben is the largest of the six bells of Westminster Palace in London. But it has long been associated with the name of the Clock Tower, which in September 2012 was officially called “Elizabeth Tower”. The decision to rename the tower was made by the British Parliament to mark the 60th anniversary of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II.The original palace of Westminster was destroyed by a fire in 1834 and the architect Charles Barry was asked to design a new one. However, he then asked Augustus Pugin for the design of the interior and the Clock Tower. The tower was completed in 1858.It is the largest four faced chiming clock in the world and, at a height of 96 metres, it is the third tallest free-standing clock tower.It is part of the heart of the English nation and the sound of the bells is featured each day on the BBC, both on the radio and television.Despite being one of the world's most famous tourist attractions, the interior of the tower is not open to overseas visitors, although United Kingdom residents can arrange tours through their Member of Parliament. However, the tower has no lift, so the visitors must climb the 334 limestone stairs to the top.  - ProProfs
