Answer 2

Certainly! Let's go through each sentence and put the verb in brackets into the correct present tense:

1. I think Tom won’t come. We have been waiting for him for an hour.

Explanation: The correct present tense here is "have been waiting" because the action of waiting started in the past and is still ongoing.

2. He has never been late. Mary cannot answer the questions. She does not listen.

Explanation: The correct present tense here is "does not listen" to indicate a habitual or general truth about Mary's behavior.

3. Aknur sings very well.

Explanation: The correct present tense here is "sings" because it describes Aknur's ability, which is a present characteristic.

4. They are playing football this afternoon.

Explanation: The correct present tense here is "are playing" because it refers to a planned action in the near future.

So, the corrected sentences are:

1. I think Tom won’t come. We have been waiting for him for an hour. 2. He has never been late. Mary cannot answer the questions. She does not listen. 3. Aknur sings very well. 4. They are playing football this afternoon.
