Answer 2

1. I can't imagine Peter helping anybody, he's so selfish.
To fill in this gap, we need to conjugate the verb "help" in the present simple tense according to the subject "Peter". Since "Peter" is a singular third person pronoun, we add 's' to the base form of the verb, making it "helps". However, in this case, we need to use the negative form, so we add "can't" at the beginning of the sentence to indicate inability. Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "help".

2. Carol wanted us to study maths instead of revising for the French exam.
In this sentence, we have two gaps that need to be filled. To fill in the first gap, we need to conjugate the verb "study" in the base form because it is preceded by the infinitive particle "to". The second gap requires the verb "revise" to be conjugated in the present continuous tense to match the main verb "wanted" in the past simple tense. Therefore, the correct forms of the verbs are "study" and "revising".

3. There's no point in arguing with my parents, they're always right.
In this sentence, the verb "argue" needs to be conjugated in the present continuous tense to match the main verb "is" in the present simple tense. The infinitive particle "in" should also be added before the verb "arguing". Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "arguing".

4. You'd better hurry up or you'll miss the bus.
To fill in this gap, we need to conjugate the verb "hurry" in the imperative form to give advice or instructions. Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "hurry".

5. I'm sorry, Sue, but I don't feel like going to the conference with you.
In this sentence, the verb "go" needs to be conjugated in the present continuous tense to match the main verb "feel" in the present simple tense. The infinitive particle "like" should also be added before the verb "going". Therefore, the correct form of the verb is "going".
