​

Answer 1

1. He will probably have it done tomorrow.
To form the causative structure, we need to use "will" followed by "have" and the past participle form of the main verb. "Probably" indicates that it is likely to happen, so it comes before "will." Therefore, the sentence becomes "He will probably have it done tomorrow."

2. If I don't repair my notebook, I can't work on my thesis.
In this sentence, we need to use the conditional form of the sentence to express the cause and effect relationship. The main clause is "I can't work on my thesis," and the subordinate clause starts with "otherwise." Therefore, the sentence becomes "I have to repair my notebook, otherwise I can't work on my thesis."

3. They have not had their TV yet.
To form the causative structure here, we need to use "have" followed by the past participle form of the main verb. The negative form is created by adding "not" after "have." Therefore, the sentence becomes "They have not had their TV yet."

4. He cannot type. He normally has this papers type.
In this sentence, we need to transform the verb "type" into its causative form by using "has" followed by the past participle. The sentence becomes "He cannot type. He normally has his papers typed."

5. He was coming out of the opticians. He told me that he had just had his eyes checked.
In this sentence, we need to use the past perfect tense for the causative form. The main sentence is "He told me," and the verb "had" is used twice to indicate the sequence of events. Therefore, the sentence becomes "He was coming out of the opticians. He told me that he had just had his eyes checked."
