• De acuerdo con el texto, ¿qué información es correcta?

  Verbs can be either main verbs or auxiliary verbs. Main verbs tell what action is being performed in a sentence. Auxiliary verbs are used in combination with main verbs. They perform two major functions: 1. Auxiliary verbs indicate shades of meaning that cannot be expressed by a main verb alone. 2. Auxiliary verbs also show tense—the time at which the action of the verb takes place. Do you know the position that auxiliary verbs have in a sentence? They always come before the main verb, although sometimes another word, such as an adverb, may come between the auxiliary verb and the main verb.

  • Un adverbio puede estar entre el verbo principal y el sujeto
  • Los verbos auxiliares jamás van antes del verbo principal
  • Los verbos principales dicen qué acción está en proceso

  How do you get to the post office?

  To get to the this place is very easy! First step: you will need to take St. Clare Street. It's the shortest of the streets in this neighborhood. It's in front of the church, you will recognize it easily! Second step: you will need to walk down 4 streets, until you get to the corner of St. Clare Street and Blossom Street. There's a bookshop on that very corner, its name is "Papúa Inn" Book Shop. Very easy to recognize too. Third step: you will need to turn to your left when on the corner, and walk two more blocks. The post office will be on another corner (Blossom St. & Evergreen St.), right in front of a drugstore.

• De acuerdo con el texto, some, half, most y all...

  The subject pronouns, like she or it or they, refer to specific, definite persons, places, or things. However, indefinite pronouns do not refer to a specific person or place or to definite things. Indefinite pronouns, such as the words some, half, most, and all, may take either singular or plural verbs, depending on their meaning in the context of the sentence. If these words tell how much of something is meant, the verb is singular; but if they tell how many of something is meant, the verb is plural. Students should not confuse the words with the words each, either, and neither. Those three words always require a singular verb.
