Q1  15
Q1 15

Question 1: She ___ her room every Saturday morning.

Question 1 options
'Cleaned' is correct because it is the simple past form of the regular verb 'clean', formed by adding '-ed'. The other options are not standard past tense forms of this verb.
Q2 15

Question 2: Yesterday, Tom ___ his bike to school.

Question 2 options
'Walked' is correct because it is the simple past of the regular verb 'walk', formed by adding '-ed'. The other options are either the base form, a misspelling, or a wrong form.
Q3 15

Question 3: To form the simple past of a regular verb that ends in 'e' (like 'bake'), you add only 'd', not 'ed'.

Question 3 options
True because when a regular verb already ends in 'e', you only add 'd' to form the past tense (e.g., bake → baked, not bakeed). Adding the full '-ed' would create a double vowel error.
Q4 15

Question 4: Which situation correctly uses a regular verb in the past tense?

Question 4 options
'She called her mum last night.' is correct because it uses the regular past tense form to describe a completed action in the past. The other options describe present habits, future plans, or ongoing actions.
Q5 15

Question 5: Arrange the words to make a correct sentence:

Question 5 options
  • football
  • He
  • with his friends
  • played
  • yesterday

Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.

The correct order is 'He played football with his friends yesterday.' because a regular past tense verb follows the subject, and the time phrase 'yesterday' comes at the end.
Q6 15

Question 6: Which sentence is correct?

Question 6 options
'They enjoyed the party last week.' is correct because 'enjoy' ends in a vowel + 'y', so you simply add '-ed'. The other options show common errors: doubling the consonant, dropping the 'y', or using the wrong ending.
Q7 15

Question 7: A: What did you do last night? B: I ___ a new recipe for dinner.

Question 7 options
'Tried' is correct because 'try' ends in consonant + 'y', so the 'y' changes to 'i' and '-ed' is added to form the past tense. The other options are not the correct past tense form of 'try'.
Q8 15

Question 8: Which sentence correctly uses the past tense of a regular verb (not the present tense)?

Question 8 options
'She visited her grandma on Sunday.' is correct because 'visited' is the properly formed past tense of the regular verb 'visit'. The other options use present simple, present continuous, or a misspelled past form.
Q9 15

Question 9: Put the words in the correct order:

Question 9 options
  • We
  • at home
  • a movie
  • watched
  • last night

Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.

The correct order is 'We watched a movie at home last night.' because the subject comes first, followed by the regular past tense verb, the object, and then the place and time phrases.
Q10 15

Question 10: The verb 'stop' has only one syllable and ends in consonant-vowel-consonant. Its past tense is ___.

Question 10 options
'Stopped' is correct because one-syllable verbs ending in consonant-vowel-consonant double the final consonant before adding '-ed'. The other options fail to apply this doubling rule correctly.
Q11 15

Question 11: Which statement about regular verbs in English is true?

Question 11 options
The simple past and past participle of regular verbs are always the same form, both ending in '-ed' or '-d'. Regular verbs do not change their stem, and the rule applies to all regular verbs without exceptions based on meaning.
Q12 15

Question 12: Rewrite in the simple past: 'I carry my bag to school every day.' → Yesterday, I ___ my bag to school.

Question 12 options
'Carried' is correct because 'carry' ends in consonant + 'y', so the 'y' changes to 'i' and '-ed' is added. The other options do not correctly apply the spelling rule for verbs ending in consonant + 'y'.
Q13 15

Question 13: Match each sentence to the correct spelling rule for forming the past tense.

Question 13 options
She baked a cake.
He studied all night.
They planned the trip.
We walked to the park.
One-syllable CVC verb → double final consonant, add 'ed'
Regular verb → add 'ed'
Verb ends in consonant + 'y' → change 'y' to 'i', add 'ed'
Verb ends in 'e' → add 'd' only

Select an item on the left, then tap its match on the right.

Regular verbs follow four main spelling rules: add '-ed', add '-d' (verb ends in 'e'), change 'y' to 'i' and add '-ed' (consonant + y), and double the final consonant and add '-ed' (CVC pattern).
Q14 15

Question 14: For a verb like 'enjoy' (vowel + y), you change the 'y' to 'i' and add '-ed' to form the past tense, giving 'enjoied'.

Question 14 options
False because when a verb ends in a vowel + 'y' (like 'enjoy'), you simply add '-ed' without changing the 'y', giving 'enjoyed'. Only verbs ending in consonant + 'y' require the 'y' to change to 'i'.
Q15 15

Question 15: Which sentence best describes a completed action in the past using a regular verb?

Question 15 options
'She cleaned the kitchen before lunch.' best uses a regular past tense verb to express a specific completed action. 'Cleans' is present simple, 'is cleaning' is present continuous, and 'will clean' is future — none describe a completed past action.
