RISPOSTE
AL QUESTIONARIO N. 1
1) Risposta esatta: a
L’indicativo presente del verbo to be è:I am / you are / he; she; it is / we are / you are / they are.La forma contratta è: I’m / you’re / he’s; she’s; it’s / we’re / you’re / they’re.
2) Risposta esatta: b
L’indicativo presente di tutti i verbi, regolari ed irregolari, si ottiene togliendoall’infinito la particella to.Tutte le persone hanno la stessa desinenza, tranne la III persona singolare a cuisi aggiunge una -s. Ad es.: to talk - I talk / you talk / he; she; it talks / we talk /you talk / they talk.I verbi che terminano in: -s, -ss, -o, -x, -z, -sh, -ch prendono, alla III personasingolare, la desinenza -es. Ad es.: I wish - he wishes.I verbi che terminano con una -y preceduta da consonante perdono la -y eprendono -ies. Ad es.: I study - he studies.
3) Risposta esatta: c
Il present continous corrisponde alla forma gerundiva italiana e si usa perindicare un’azione in pieno svolgimento o un’azione che si ripete continuamen-te nel presente per un periodo limitato.Esso si ottiene con il presente del verbo to be più il presente indicativo del verboda coniugare, a cui si aggiunge la desinenza -ing.Per creare la forma -ing esistono alcune regole ortografiche. Se il verbo terminain -e, questa cade davanti alla desinenza -ing. Ad es.: to take - taking. Fannoeccezione i verbi che terminano in -ee. Ad es.: to see - seeing e il verbo to be -being.I verbi monosillabi che terminano con una sola consonante preceduta da unasola vocale accentata, raddoppiano la vocale finale. Ad es.: to stop - stopping;to travel - travelling.I verbi che terminano in -ie cambiano in y e aggiungono -ing. Ad es.: to die -dying; to lie - lying.

Risposte al questionario n. 124
4) Risposta esatta: d
5) Risposta esatta: a
La forma negativa del presente semplice di tutti i verbi si costruisce conl’ausiliare to do (does alla terza persona singolare) secondo lo schema:soggetto + do not (don’t) o does not (doesn’t) + verbo.Non si usa to do con i verbi to have got, to be e con i verbi difettivi che invececostruiscono la forma negativa con la semplice aggiunta del not. Ad es.: I am not- we haven’t got.
6) Risposta esatta: d
Il presente del verbo to have è:I have / you have / he; she; it has / we have / you have / they have.La forma contratta: I’ve / you’ve / he’s; she’s; it’s / we’ve / you’ve / they’ve.La forma interrogativa del verbo to have si forma con l’inversione tra soggettoe verbo. Ad es.: you have got - have you got?La forma negativa si ottiene facendo seguire il verbo da not. Ad es.: I have got- I haven’t got.Il verbo to have senza got, nella forma interrogativa e in quella negativa, fa usodell’ausiliare do. Ad es.: we have - do we have? - we don’t have.
7) Risposta esatta: d
Can è un verbo difettivo, presenta cioè alcune irregolarità: non prende la -s allaIII persona singolare; è seguito dall’infinito senza to; manca di alcuni modi etempi.Be able to significa «essere in grado di» e sostituisce can nei tempi in cuiquest’ultimo difetta.
8) Risposta esatta: b
Must, come can, è un verbo difettivo e nei tempi mancanti viene sostituito da tohave to.
9) Risposta esatta: d
Gli articoli sono invariabili. L’articolo determinativo è the.L’articolo indeterminativo ha due forme: a e an. A si usa davanti alle consonanti,alla -h aspirata, alle semivocali -w, e -y e davanti a -u nei casi in cui questa sipronuncia come una consonante.An, invece, precede le parole che iniziano per vocale e per -h muta.
