Answer 2

Exercise 2. Use the right form of the verb «to be»:

1. There are seven days in a week. 2. There are three beds in the room. 3. There is a large table in the room. 4. There is a desk, two beds, and two small tables there. 5. There are some pens, pencils, and notebooks here. 6. There is a big tree in the garden. 7. There is a chair at the table.

In this exercise, we are using the verb "to be" to describe the existence or presence of certain things. The verb "to be" is conjugated differently depending on the subject and whether it is singular or plural.

- For plural subjects, we use "are." For example, "There are seven days in a week."

- For singular subjects, we use "is." For example, "There is a large table in the room."

In sentences 1, 2, 5, and 7, the subjects are plural, so we use "are" to match the plural form of the verb. In sentences 3, 4, and 6, the subjects are singular, so we use "is" to match the singular form of the verb.

Remember that when using the verb "to be," it is important to match the form of the verb with the subject in terms of singular or plural.
