Sarah said she is meeting me at the park at 3 PM the following day.Answer: AExplanation: When converting direct speech to indirect speech, the tense of the verb usually changes to a past tense form. In this case, “will meet” becomes “would meet.” Additionally, the time reference “tomorrow” in direct speech usually shifts to a relative time in indirect speech, but it can remain “tomorrow” if the context clearly indicates that the original speaker’s “tomorrow” is still in the future relative to the time of the indirect speech. However, options that use “will” or “is going to” in indirect s peech are incorrect because they do not reflect the past tense context required in indirect speech. Option B uses “will” and specifies “the next day,” which is redundant and incorrect for indirect speech. Option C uses “is going to,” which is alsoincorrec t for indirect speech. Option D uses “is meeting,” which is present continuous and does not fit the required past tense form. Therefore, the correct answer is A.9、Which sentence is correct?A. The childrens are playing in the park.B. The children is playing in the park.C. The children are playing in the park.D. The child are playing in the park.Answer: CExplanation: The correct answer is C because “children” is a plural noun and requires a plural verb form, which is “are.” Option A uses an incorrect p lural form “childrens,” option B incorrectly uses the singular verb “is” with the plural subject “children,” and option D incorrectly uses “child,” which is singular, with the plural verb “are.”10、Choose the word that does not belong to the group:A. AppleB. BananaC. CarrotD. OrangeAnswer: CExplanation: The correct answer is C because “Carrot” is a vegetable, while the other options—Apple, Banana, and Orange—are fruits.
