1. Some modern cars run on unleaded petrol. (Present Simple, констатация факта)

2. Mother told her little son while she was bathing (Past Cont. - действие в процессе) him that cats eat mice (Present Simple, правило согласования времен здесь не применяется, т.к. придаточное информирует об общеизвестном факте)

3. They were sure that soon they would be phoned by her friends. (Future Simple in the Past (пассив) - поскольку в главном предложении сказуемое в прош. вр., то в придаточном нельзя использовать Future Simple)

4. The police are often found fault with. - Present Simple Passive, на полицию часто жалуются - повторяющееся действие. *the police всегда используется с глагольными формами во мн. числе

5. She has been singing in the choir nearly a year. (Present Perfect Continuous, действие до сих пор длится определенный период времени)

6. Look, these shoes go well with your dress. (Present Simple для характеристики предмета. Туфли сочетаются с платьем вообще, а не только в данный момент)

12.

Answer 2

Sure, I'll be happy to help you with the corrections. I'll explain the reasons for each change. Let's go through each sentence one by one:

1. Some modern cars run on unleaded petrol. [Correct]

2. Mother told her little son while she was bathing him that cats eat mice. [Explanation: "while she was bathing" is used to indicate the ongoing action in the past, and "cats eat" is the correct simple present tense.]

3. They were sure that soon they would be phoned by her friends. [Explanation: "would be phoned" is the correct future passive form.]

4. The police often find fault with. [Explanation: The original sentence is incomplete. It should be "The police often find fault with someone/something."]

5. She has been singing in the choir for nearly a year. [Explanation: "has been singing" indicates an action that started in the past and is still ongoing.]

6. Look, these shoes go well with your dress. [Correct]

7. You will be glad that she is very docile all the time. [Explanation: Since the first part is in the future tense, the second part should also be in the future tense.]

8. I bought the book because I was attracted by its cover. [Explanation: The actions took place in the past, so we use the simple past tense.]

9. For several years, my parents have been going abroad. [Explanation: "have been going" indicates a continuous action that started in the past and is still happening.]

10. Suddenly Julian heard that the front door was opening. [Explanation: The first part is in the past tense, so the second part should also be in the past tense.]

11. Fill in the blanks using grammar and word-formation rules. She was sitting in the library, studying up on issue cultures as an aid to further practical work in the laboratory. [Explanation: "was sitting" indicates a past action, and "practical" is the correct adjective form of "practice."]

12. Ted had been helping in setting her up with some relatively harmful viruses so that she could familiarize herself with the latest virology equipment. [Explanation: The correct verb form is "helping," and the adjectives should be "harmful" and "latest." The noun form of "equip" is "equipment."]

13. Melissa checked her watch. At three, she had an appointment with her boss. [Explanation: The correct noun form is "appointment."]

14. The day before, she had given his secretary a formal request for permission to use the laboratory, outlining the experimental work she wanted to do. [Explanation: The correct verb form is "had given," and the noun form is "permission." The adjective form is "experimental."]

I hope these explanations help you understand the corrections! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.
