Answer 2

1. My wife and I are starting to think we should stay at home (to think)

Correction: My wife and I are starting to think that we should stay at home.

Explanation: In this sentence, the word "that" is missing between "think" and "we should stay at home." The word "that" is used to introduce a subordinate clause, which provides more information about the verb "think." In this case, the subordinate clause is "we should stay at home."

2. The animals frightened by a loud noise. (frightened)

Correction: The animals were frightened by a loud noise.

Explanation: In this sentence, the verb "frightened" should be changed to "were frightened." This is because the sentence is in the past tense, and the past tense of the verb "frighten" requires the auxiliary verb "were" to form the past continuous tense.

3. The thieves saw by anyone. (saw)

Correction: The thieves were seen by anyone.

Explanation: In this sentence, the verb "saw" should be changed to "were seen." This is because the sentence is in the passive voice, and the past tense of the verb "see" requires the auxiliary verb "were" to form the passive voice.

4. The university will close next year. (will close)

Correction: The university is going to close next year.

Explanation: In this sentence, the phrase "will close" should be changed to "is going to close." Both phrases express future events, but "is going to close" is more commonly used to talk about planned or scheduled events in the future.

5. She works for this firm since she left school. (works)

Correction: She has been working for this firm since she left school.

Explanation: In this sentence, the verb "works" should be changed to "has been working." This is because the sentence is in the present perfect tense, which is used to talk about actions that started in the past and continue up to the present. The present perfect tense is formed using the auxiliary verb "has been" followed by the present participle of the main verb.
