    7. Ana is an eighth-grade student and has recently started her English course. In her first English class, her teacher asked everyone to introduce themselves using Simple Present sentences. Ana got confused when she heard her friend saying 'He studies' and not 'He study'. The teacher explained that in English, verbs get an extra 's' or 'es' in the Simple Present when used with he, she, or it. Ana decided to write a list of sentences to practice. She wrote: He plays. She watches. It rains. We jump. I sleep. Based on this, Ana asked her friend which sentence is NOT correct in Simple Present tense for the subject.

    He plays.

    b)

    She watches.

    I sleep.

    8. During English class, the teacher wrote on the board: 'I eat breakfast at 7 AM', 'He eats breakfast at 7 AM', and 'We eat breakfast at 7 AM'. She asked the students to notice the differences in the verb forms. Then, she explained that the Simple Present is used to talk about routines and general facts. She gave a homework assignment: write three sentences about your morning routine using the correct Simple Present forms.

    What is the main difference between the sentences 'I eat', 'He eats', and 'We eat' in the Simple Present tense?

    a)

    The verb does not change regardless of the subject.

    b)

    Only 'he' uses the verb with 's' in the end.

    c)

    All verbs use 'es' when the subject is plural.

    d)

    The verb always uses 'ed' in the Simple Present.

    e)

    Only 'I' uses the base form of the verb.
