Answer key & explanations

  1. She has two books. — She is third-person singular, so present simple have becomes has.
  2. I agree. — Agree is already a verb; it does not need am in the simple present.
  3. He gave me some advice. — Advice is uncountable in this meaning. Use some advice or a piece of advice.
  4. I look forward to meeting you. — To is a preposition in look forward to, so an -ing form follows.
  5. Although it was late, we continued. — An although clause needs a main clause to complete the thought.
  6. She does not like coffee. — With she, use does; the main verb after does remains the base form like.
  7. I have lived here for three years. — Present perfect expresses continuation to now, and for introduces a duration.
  8. There is some furniture in the room. — Furniture is uncountable in ordinary English; use some and singular is.
  9. We discussed the problem. — Discuss normally takes a direct object without about.
  10. This route is shorter than the other one. — Use the comparative shorter with than; do not combine more with the -er form.
