Here are the correct forms for the verbs in your exercises, along with brief explanations for why each choice is the most accurate. Ex. 2 Correct Answer: a) am tired Sentence: "I am tired already. I feel I’ll die!"

  • Explanation: The speaker is describing their current physical state in the present moment. The verb "to be" must agree with the subject "I," which results in "am."
  • Note: Options (b) and (d) are grammatically incomplete or incorrect because "tired" is an adjective here, and "has tired" (c) would require a different context (present perfect).

Ex. 3 Correct Answer: c) fits, wear Sentence: "This cap fits me that’s why I wear it."

  • Explanation: This sentence describes a general fact or a regular state.
    • Fits: The subject "This cap" is third-person singular (it), so the verb "fit" adds an "-s."
    • Wear: The subject "I" takes the base form of the verb in the Present Simple.
  • Note: "Weared" (a) is not a word; the past tense of wear is "wore."

Ex. 4 Correct Answer: d) am going, come Sentence: "I am going home, wait till I come."

  • Explanation:
    • I am going: This describes an action happening now or an immediate intention.
    • Come: In English, we use the Present Simple after time conjunctions like "till," "until," or "when" to refer to future events. Using "will come" (e) inside a time clause is a common grammatical error.
