03 Answers and one-line notes
| # | Answer | One-line note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | is knocking | Listen! works like Look! and signals an action happening now, so use the continuous. |
| 2 | boils | Scientific facts and general truths take the present simple. |
| 3 | do not go | A regular negative habit uses do not with the base verb. |
| 4 | are / doing | An arranged future plan can be expressed with the present continuous. |
| 5 | is making | The first sentence places her in the kitchen now, so the action is in progress. |
| 6 | Can he swim? | The modal can forms its own question, so does is not added. |
| 7 | He has a shower every morning. | Every morning states a habit, so the simple form is used; have a shower here is an action. |
| 8 | I prefer tea to coffee. | Prefer is a state verb and does not take the -ing form. |
| 9 | He reads every day. He is reading now. | Every day states a habit while now states this moment, showing the contrast. |
| 10 | has | Have for possession is a state verb, so is having is the common wrong answer. |
04 What to do after marking
- After marking, redo only the wrong items and write down which step went wrong (formula, unit, or misread number).
- Repeat the same item two days later; move to the next paper only when both attempts are correct.
- Parents only need the answer and note columns; there is no need to explain every item.
