Explanation for Quiz Answers:

Multiple Choice:

  1. (b) "Writes" agrees with the singular subject "The student" in the present tense.
  2. (b) "Ate" is the correct past tense of "to eat." "Eated" and "eeten" are not standard verb forms.
  3. (a) "We will be going" indicates future action. (b) is present, (c) is past, and (d) expresses desire but not future action.
  4. (c) "Close the door" is a direct command. (a) expresses a wish, (b) describes an action, and (d) describes a state.
  5. (c) "If I were you" is a hypothetical statement, which is a characteristic of the subjunctive mood.

True or False:

  1. False. While "is," "am," and "are" are common helping verbs, others like "have," "has," "had," "do," "does," "did," and modal verbs like "can," "could," "may," "might," etc., are also used as helping verbs.
  2. False. The present tense is typically used to describe actions happening now, habitually, or universally true. For future events, we use future tenses like "will" or "going to."
  3. False. Many regular verbs also change their form for the past tense. For example, "play" becomes "played," "think" becomes "thought," etc.
  4. False. Some verbs already end in "-s" in the present tense, like "has," "goes," "wishes," etc. Adding an "-s" to these verbs would be incorrect.
  5. False. The mood of a verb can indicate whether it expresses a fact (indicative), a command (imperative), or a wish/doubt/contrary-to-fact situation (subjunctive). Therefore, the mood of a verb can influence its interpretation and can't be considered independent of its tense.
