Answer 2

Task 1: Three grammar mistakes in the provided text:

1. "Montreal are" should be "Montreal is" to match the singular subject.
2. "There is some nice buildings" should be "There are some nice buildings" because "buildings" is plural.
3. "They are popular when it’s cold" should be "It is popular when it's cold" because "hopping centers" should be singular, and "it" should be used to refer to a singular subject.

There are some nice buildings in the old part of the city, including an old church and a port. There is an interesting museum here. The town of Quebec is 275 km from Montreal. Ice hockey and skating are very popular sports here. There is also an American football team. The name of the team is the Montreal Alouettes. There is a big shopping center in Montreal, and it is popular when it's cold. There are also a lot of shops. We like Bonsecours Market for clothes.
