Thank you so much for your help. this Q is extracted from MGS's 2009 SA2 paper, No.1 is given by the answer sheet. However, my ds and I also chose No.4. very confused :?

I think the answer sheet is unreliable.

there have been more than a few instances where the answers in the sheet were wrong.

so do watch for them

Hi

Let me give it a try, I am inclined to go for “since”.

Since is used often with the Present Perfect Tense. It shows the starting time of the action and how it has continued up to the present moment.

Best wishes

Hi, can someone help me with this :


The class usually wipe/wipes their tables before the lesson starts.
The answer is wipe. Is it because of the word their.

HI,

I think the reason is that \"Class\" is a group of students and is considered plural. So must use \"Wipe\".

words like Wipes, likes, runs, plays etc are used for singular.

eg.

She plays badminton every evening.
They play badminton every evening.

Hope this helps

The plural verb is used because of \"their\", which implies that the class is made up of many individuals. Collective nouns are usually singular, though.
