Answer 2

To decide whether to use "was" or "were," you need to consider the subject of each sentence and whether it is singular or plural. Here's the correct form for each sentence:

1. Boris was learning English. (singular subject)
2. They were swimming in the lake. (plural subject)
3. Your father was repairing the car. (singular subject)
4. I was reading a magazine. (singular subject)
5. You were packing your bag. (plural subject)
6. My friends were watching the match on TV. (plural subject)
7. It was raining. (singular subject)
8. The dog was barking. (singular subject)
9. The children were brushing their teeth. (plural subject)
10. Anne and Maureen were singing a song. (plural subject)

Remember, "was" is used with singular subjects, and "were" is used with plural subjects.
