Answer 1

Ответ:

27. I like basketball, but I prefer volleyball. - A

(описывается текущая ситуация, глаголы like и prefer в continuous не используются)

28. We won the match because we had been practising the week before. - С

(тренировались раньше, чем выиграли - для более раннего действия в прошлом нужен past perfect)

29. Shirley didn't use to speak Russian before she met Ivan. - D

(Конструкция used to/didn't use to используется для выражения повторяющихся действий в прошлом)

30. I don't think Adam understood what the coach told us. - C

(past simple для выражения действия в прошлом)

31. Before the exam, I had studied everything — except the questions they asked! - A

(выбираем Past Perfect, чтобы обозначить действие, которое завершилось до определенного момента в прошлом - до экзамена)

32. You looked worried. Are you thinking about what happened last night? - B

(в вопросе перед подлежащим ставится вспомогательный глагол; глагол think в значении "думать", "обдумывать" употребляется во временах группы Continuous, так как обозначает временный мыслительный процесс)

33. When you rang, I was doing my Geography homework. - B

(длительное действие. выраженное формой past continuous, было прервано другим (быстрым) действием в прошлом)

34. Ivor hasn't been playing cricket for long, but he's already quite good at it. - B

(нужно использовать Present Perfect Continuous для обозначения действия, которое началось в прошлом, длилось какое-то время и все еще продолжается в настоящем.)
