Hi Leo,
How are you? I am writing to ask if you are free this weekend. My brother and I (25) ……………… going to play tennis at the local club on Saturday morning. (26) ……………… you like to come with us? We usually play (27) ……………… about two hours. You don't need to bring a tennis racket. I have got (28) ……………… extra one for you. If you want to come, please let (29) ……………… know before Friday. My dad can drive us (30) ……………… the club.
See you soon!
Answer Key & Explanations
25 are
– Why it's right: We need the verb 'are' to complete the 'be going to' structure for future plans. We use 'are' because the subject is plural ("My brother and I").
– Why not 'is': We cannot use 'is' because the subject is more than one person.
26 Would
– Why it's right: We use 'Would' with 'you like' when we want to invite someone to do something or offer them something politely.
– Why not 'Do': 'Do you like' asks about things you generally enjoy in life, not about an invitation for a specific day.
27 for
– Why it's right: We use the preposition 'for' before a length of time to describe how long an activity lasts.
– Why not 'in': We do not use 'in' to talk about the duration of an ongoing activity like this.
28 an
– Why it's right: We use the article 'an' before a singular noun or adjective that starts with a vowel sound, like the 'e' in "extra".
– Why not 'a': We cannot use 'a' here because it must only be used before words that start with a consonant sound.
29 me
– Why it's right: We use the object pronoun 'me' to complete the common phrase "let me know", which means to tell someone your decision later.
– Why not 'I': 'I' is a subject pronoun, but here we need an object pronoun after the verb "let".
30 to
– Why it's right: We use the preposition 'to' after verbs of movement (like "drive" or "go") to show the direction we are traveling.
– Why not 'at': We use 'at' to say where something already is, not where it is moving towards.
