finished your homework do you finished your homework have you finished your homework is correct in this sentence we're talking about the past but there's no specific time mentioned so we need the present perfect tense have you finished your homework question two my father takes a threemile walk every day my father takes a three miles walk every day my father takes three miles walks every day my father takes a threemile walk every day is correct in English we can connect two words with a hyphen to create a compound adjective A well-dressed man a part-time job a first class ticket but remember that English adjectives are always singular so a threemile walk is correct question three Eric asked his boss to get a raise Eric asked his boss to have a raise Eric asked his boss for a raise Eric asked his boss for a raise is correct in this sentence we're dealing with a cocation words that often go together in English and the collocation for array is to ask for Eric asked his boss

about a condition that might actually happen so we need to use the first conditional structure which is if plus present simple tense followed by an outcome in the future tense if Sarah misses the bus she'll be late if you study for the quiz you'll get an A if if I eat too much I'll be sick question five my brother hasn't gone skydiving and so have I my brother hasn't gone skydiving and so haven't

and is often used when talking about cars to break off describes a piece of something becoming detached from the hole as in he broke off a piece of his candy bar and to break out means to escape as in the inmates broke out of prison question seven the new neighbors moved in another day the new neighbors moved in the other day the new neighbors moved in some other day the new neighbors moved in the other day is correct in English we use the phrase the other day to describe an event that happened at a general time in the recent past I met her for the first time the other day he lost his keys the other day the new neighbors moved in the other day question eight if I were you I wouldn't worry too much about it if I were you I won't worry too much about it if I were you I wasn't worrying too much about it if I were you I wouldn't worry too much about it is correct this is another conditional phrase but this time the condition is imaginary or unreal so we need the second conditional which is if Plus past tense followed by would plus the base form of the verb if he were a billionaire he would buy a yacht if she wanted a dog she would get one if I were you I wouldn't worry too much about it question nine when Bridget was a kid she was used to play soccer when Bridget was a kid she used to play soccer when Bridget was a kid she was used to playing soccer when Bridget was a kid she used to play soccer is correct we use the phrase used to plus the base form of a verb to describe something that happened regularly in the past I used to work in an office they used to live upstairs she used to play soccer but be careful not to confuse this with two similar phrases one to be used to something which describes habits as in I'm used to getting up at 5:00 a.m. and two to get used to something which expresses that someone has learned to tolerate something unpleasant over time as in the water here tastes a bit strange but you'll get used to it after a while question 10 the manager was tired because he was working all day the manager was tired because he had been working all day the manager was tired because he worked all day the manager was tired because he had been working all
