Answer 2

(1) I saw him dropping his bag on his way to school.
The correct answer is (c) dropping. The verb "saw" is in the past tense and is used in the continuous form "saw him dropping." This indicates that the action of dropping the bag was in progress at the time it was seen.

(2) Father wanted his son to become a film producer.
The correct answer is (a) to become. The phrase "wanted his son" indicates a desire for the son to achieve something in the future. Therefore, the infinitive "to become" is appropriate here.

(3) When my father was at school, he wore his hair short.
The correct answer is (a) wore. The verb "wore" is in the past tense and indicates a habit or regular action in the past.

(4) I have sent a lot of letters today. Now I'm free.
The correct answer is (c) have sent. The verb "have sent" is in the present perfect tense, indicating that the action was completed at an unspecified time before now.

(5) When Dad comes, we will sit down for dinner.
The correct answer is (b) come/will sit. The word "when" indicates a future event (Dad coming), and the future tense "will sit" shows that sitting down for dinner will happen after Dad arrives.

(6) While we were talking, someone took her bag.
The correct answer is (c) were talking/took. The phrase "while we were talking" indicates an ongoing action in the past, and the verb "took" is in the simple past tense, indicating a completed action.

(7) I will buy the camera if it is not expensive.
The correct answer is (b) will buy/is. The phrase "if it is not expensive" is a conditional statement indicating a future possibility. The verb "will buy" is in the future tense, and the verb "is" is used to indicate the current state.

(8) Mozart composed a lot of wonderful pieces of music.
The correct answer is (b) composed. The verb "composed" is in the past tense and indicates a completed action in the past.

(9) Alex called for a taxi after he had packed his suitcase.
The correct answer is (b) had packed. The verb "had packed" is in the past perfect tense, indicating an action completed before another action in the past (calling for a taxi).
