, QUESTION 1: ENGLISH GRAMMAR AND LANGUAGE [10] Read the
sentences below and fix the grammar and language errors that appear: 1.1
The boys runs fast through the park every morning.
The correct version of the sentence is: "The boys run fast through the park every morning."
Explanation:
"Boys" is a plural noun, so the verb should be in the plural form "run" instead of "runs."
"Run" is the correct present tense form of the verb to agree with the subject "boys."
"Run" also maintains subject-verb agreement, which is necessary in English grammar.
1.2 I wanted to go to the store I needed some groceries but I didn't have time
to get there before it closed.
The corrected sentence is: "I wanted to go to the store because I needed some groceries, but I
didn't have time to get there before it closed."
Explanation:
Added "because" to make the relationship between wanting to go to the store and needing
groceries clearer.
Added a comma after "groceries" to separate the independent clauses and improve
readability.
1.3 When we were growing up, my brother grumbled (frequently, frequent)
about house chores.
The corrected sentence is: "When we were growing up, my brother frequently grumbled about
house chores."
Explanation:
"Frequently" is the correct adverb to describe how often your brother grumbled.
"Frequent" is an adjective, not an adverb, so it doesn't fit in this context.
