Answer 2

1. When have they done it?

The correct form should be "When did they do it?" The verb "have" is not used in this context to form the past tense. Instead, the auxiliary verb "did" is used.

2. He lives nearly.

The correct form should be "He lives nearby." The word "nearly" means almost, while "nearby" means close in distance.

3. Remarque has written many great novels.

There is no grammatical error in this sentence.

4. The program starts at quarter past two.

There is no grammatical error in this sentence.

5. He is the most old boy in the yard.

The correct form should be "He is the oldest boy in the yard." The word "most" is used to compare three or more items, while "oldest" is used to compare two items.

6. This book is consisting of two parts.

The correct form should be "This book consists of two parts." The verb "consist" does not require the auxiliary verb "is" in this context.

7. The area is watching by policemen.

The correct form should be "The area is being watched by policemen." The passive voice is used in this sentence, so the verb "watch" should be in the past participle form "watched" and the auxiliary verb "is" is needed.

8. I have three children boy and two girls.

The correct form should be "I have three boys and two girls." The word "children" is plural, so it should be followed by the plural form of the noun "boys."

9. The documents have already signed.

The correct form should be "The documents have already been signed." The passive voice is used in this sentence, so the verb "sign" should be in the past participle form "been signed" and the auxiliary verb "have" is needed.

10. How are you? I am good, thanks.

The correct form should be "How are you? I am well, thanks." The word "good" is an adjective, while "well" is the correct adverb to describe a person's state of being.

11. Has he to get up early to come to work in time?

The correct form should be "Does he have to get up early to come to work on time?" The verb "have" is used as an auxiliary verb to form the question, and the word "on" is used to indicate a specific time.

12. The book was written Pushkin.

The correct form should be "The book was written by Pushkin." The preposition "by" is needed to indicate the author of the book.

13. I usually have coffee without a sugar.

The correct form should be "I usually have coffee without sugar." The word "a" is not needed before "sugar" in this context.

14. Do you expect me do it without any help?

The correct form should be "Do you expect me to do it without any help?" The infinitive form of the verb "do" is needed after the verb "expect."

15. Woman appeared round the corner dressed in all black.

The correct form should be "A woman appeared round the corner dressed in all black." The indefinite article "a" is needed before "woman" to indicate that it is a specific but unidentified woman.

16. Where are belongings of Steve?

The correct form should be "Where are Steve's belongings?" The possessive form "Steve's" is needed to indicate that the belongings belong to Steve.

17. I live in big city.

The correct form should be "I live in a big city." The indefinite article "a" is needed before "big city" to indicate that it is a specific but unidentified big city.

18. Open window!

The correct form should be "Open the window!" The definite article "the" is needed before "window" to indicate a specific window.

19. I have never passed through right wing of this building.

The correct form should be "I have never passed through the right wing of this building." The word "the" is needed before "right wing" to indicate a specific right wing.

20. What are the administrative parts of the UK?

There is no grammatical error in this sentence.

21. When we arrived our children slept.

The correct form should be "When we arrived, our children were sleeping." The past continuous tense is used to indicate an ongoing action in the past.

22. If I will meet her I will ask about it.

The correct form should be "If I meet her, I will ask about it." The verb "will" is not needed after "if" in this context.

23. We thought it will be easier.

The correct form should be "We thought it would be easier." The past tense form "would" is used after "thought" to indicate a hypothetical situation in the past.

24. All the children like ice cream.

There is no grammatical error in this sentence.

25. Do I must to rise at 4 a.m.?

The correct form should be "Do I have to rise at 4 a.m.?" The verb "have" is used as an auxiliary verb to form the question, and the word "to" is not needed after "must."
