Answer 1

1. To keep fit, Dan goes for a swim every Friday.
- Pam does too. (This means that Pam also goes for a swim every Friday to keep fit.)

2. Martin has never played squash.
- They haven't either. (This means that neither of them has played squash.)

3. Sam is going to try out the new gym.
- I am too. (This means that the speaker is also going to try out the new gym.)

4. They shouldn't give up chess.
- We shouldn't either. (This means that neither of us should give up chess.)

5. As a child, Olga wasn't very competitive.
- Her sister wasn't either. (This means that her sister was also not very competitive.)

6. Hopefully, Pete will talk his parents into doing Nordic walking.
- Tina will too. (This means that Tina will also try to convince her parents to do Nordic walking.)

In these sentences, "so/too" and "neither/either" are used to show agreement or disagreement with the previous statement. We use "so/too" to show agreement, and "neither/either" to show disagreement. The correct auxiliary verb (do, have, be, will, etc.) is added to complete the sentence structure.
