Answer 2

1. Mother asks me not to open the door. The correct answer is (a) not because the structure of the sentence indicates that the mother is making a request for the speaker to refrain from performing a certain action, which is opening the door. The correct structure for this type of request is "ask + person + not to + verb."

2. Who played tennis the other day? The correct answer is (c) played because the sentence is in the past tense and requires a simple past verb form. The correct structure for this type of question is "wh- + auxiliary verb + subject + verb in the simple past."

3. I wonder where they are now. The correct answer is (c) they are because the sentence requires a subject-verb agreement and the structure "subject + verb to be + adverb" is correct in this context.

4. Jerry offers to buy some milk. The correct answer is (b) to buy because the structure of the sentence indicates that Jerry is making an offer to perform a certain action, which is buying some milk. The correct structure for this type of offer is "offer + to + verb."
