Answer 2

1. Put the book (in/into) the bag please. - Both "in" and "into" can be used in this sentence, but they have slightly different meanings. - "In" suggests that the book is already partially or fully inside the bag. - "Into" suggests that the book is not yet inside the bag and needs to be placed inside. - So, both "Put the book in the bag" and "Put the book into the bag" are correct, but the choice depends on the context and the intended meaning.

2. (Are/Do) you at home? - The correct question is "Are you at home?" - "Are" is used to form questions in the present tense for the subject "you." - Example: "Are you at home?" (correct) - "Do" is used to form questions in the present tense for other subjects. - Example: "Do they like ice cream?" (correct)

3. Ann (doesn't/isn't) speak English. - The correct sentence is "Ann doesn't speak English." - "Doesn't" is the contraction of "does not" and is used to form negative sentences in the present tense for the subject "Ann." - Example: "Ann doesn't speak English." (correct) - "Isn't" is the contraction of "is not" and is used to form negative sentences in the present tense for the subject "Ann" when referring to a state or condition. - Example: "Ann isn't feeling well." (correct)

4. Come (into/to) the room please. - Both "into" and "to" can be used in this sentence, but they have slightly different meanings. - "Into" suggests movement from outside the room to inside the room. - "To" suggests movement towards the room without necessarily entering it. - So, both "Come into the room, please" and "Come to the room, please" are correct, but the choice depends on the context and the intended meaning.

5. (A/The) book is on the table. - Both "a" and "the" can be used in this sentence, but they have different meanings. - "A" suggests that there is a book on the table, but it is not specific which book. - "The" suggests that there is a specific book on the table, and both the speaker and the listener know which book is being referred to. - So, both "A book is on the table" and "The book is on the table" are correct, but the choice depends on the context and the intended meaning.

6. (Don't/Not to) come in please. - The correct sentence is "Don't come in, please." - "Don't" is the contraction of "do not" and is used to form negative commands or requests. - Example: "Don't come in, please." (correct) - "Not to" is not used in this context. It is used to express purpose or intention. - Example: "He went to the store not to buy groceries but to meet a friend." (correct)
