Answer 2

Yesterday James and Poly were at the beach with their mum and dad. It was sunny. The children were very happy. At twelve o'clock they were hungry. Mum was hot. She was thirsty too. Dad was tired.

In the given passage, we need to choose the correct forms of the verbs "was" and "were" to match the subject of each sentence. Let's go through each sentence and choose the appropriate verb form:

1. "Yesterday James and Poly were at the beach with their mum and dad." - The subject of the sentence is "James and Poly" (plural), so we use the plural form of the verb "were."

2. "It was sunny." - The subject of the sentence is "It" (singular), so we use the singular form of the verb "was."

3. "The children were very happy." - The subject of the sentence is "The children" (plural), so we use the plural form of the verb "were."

4. "At twelve o'clock they were hungry." - The subject of the sentence is "they" (plural), so we use the plural form of the verb "were."

5. "Mum was hot." - The subject of the sentence is "Mum" (singular), so we use the singular form of the verb "was."

6. "She was thirsty too." - The subject of the sentence is "She" (singular), so we use the singular form of the verb "was."

7. "Dad was tired." - The subject of the sentence is "Dad" (singular), so we use the singular form of the verb "was."

So, the correct forms of the verbs are:

- were - was - were - were - was - was - was

The corrected passage would be: "Yesterday James and Poly were at the beach with their mum and dad. It was sunny. The children were very happy. At twelve o'clock they were hungry. Mum was hot. She was thirsty too. Dad was tired."
