Answer 2

Sure, let's go through each sentence:

1. (These) pears (are) delicious. 2. (This) news (is) good. 3. What colour (is) her hair? 4. Where (are) the geese? 5. There (are) cheap dresses in (this) shop. 6. How much (are) (those) pair of shoes? 7. I'd like to buy (those) gloves.

Explanation:

1. "These" is used because it refers to multiple pears, and "are" is used because it is plural. 2. "This" is used because news is treated as a singular concept, and "is" is used because it is singular. 3. "Is" is used because it refers to the singular noun "hair." 4. "Are" is used because it refers to multiple geese. 5. "There are" is used because it refers to multiple dresses, and "this" is used to indicate a specific shop. 6. "Are" is used because it refers to a pair of shoes (plural), and "those" is used because it indicates a specific pair of shoes. 7. "Those" is used because it refers to a specific pair of gloves.

Remember, in English, the choice between "is" and "are" depends on whether the subject is singular or plural. Also, use "this" for singular and "these" for plural when talking about something close, and use "that" for singular and "those" for plural when talking about something farther away or more distant.
