Pick the option that best corrects the following sentence:I am going t...
The given sentence is grammatically incorrect because we use 'am going' when we are going somewhere in the present and not for an activity performed on a regular basis.
From the options given, option A) is incorrect because 'were' is used for plural nouns/pronouns but here the pronoun is singular, 'I'. Option B) 'will have gone' is incorrect because it is in the future perfect tense. Options C and D are both correct. Option C has 'go to' which is the right tense (simple present) to use for habits or events that take place on a regular basis. Option D is not grammatically correct, it should be 'I have been going to the office. . .'. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
Pick the option that best corrects the following sentence:I am going t...
Explanation:
Option C: "I go to the office every day by bus."
- This option is the correct answer as it is written in the present tense, which matches with the sentence given in the question. The sentence "I go to the office every day by bus" indicates a habitual action that the speaker currently performs.
Option A: "I were going to the office every day by bus."
- This option is incorrect because the verb "were" is used in the past tense, which does not match with the present tense of the original sentence. The correct form should be "I am" instead of "I were."
Option B: "I will have gone to the office every day by bus."
- This option is incorrect because it is written in the future perfect tense, which indicates an action that will be completed in the future. However, the original sentence is talking about a current habit, so the present tense is more appropriate.
Option D: "I have been gone to the office every day by bus."
- This option is incorrect because it uses the present perfect tense with the verb "have been gone," which is not grammatically correct. The correct form should be "I have gone" to indicate a past action that is still relevant to the present.
In conclusion: Option C is the correct answer as it matches with the present tense of the original sentence. The sentence "I go to the office every day by bus" indicates a habitual action that the speaker currently performs.
