Answer 1

1.We are going on a trip to the beach. ✔️
2.He wants to travel abroad. ✔️
3.She travels to Spain once a year. ✔️
4.They are planning a travel to Italy. ✖️

The correct form of sentence 4 should be: They are planning a trip to Italy.

Answer 2

Sure, let's go through each sentence and determine if the use of "travel" or "trip" is correct:

1. We are going on a trip to the beach. ✔ - In this sentence, "trip" is the correct term to use because it refers to a specific journey or vacation to the beach.

2. He wants to travel abroad. ✔ - In this sentence, "travel" is the correct term to use as it refers to the general act of going to another country.

3. She travels to Spain once a year. ✔ - Here, "travel" is appropriate because it describes the routine action of going to Spain.

4. They are planning a travel to Italy. X - In this sentence, "travel" is not the correct term to use. The appropriate word to use is "trip." It should be "They are planning a trip to Italy."

So, in summary:

- Sentence 1 is correct with "trip." - Sentence 2 is correct with "travel." - Sentence 3 is correct with "travel." - Sentence 4 is incorrect; it should be "trip" instead of "travel."
