Problem Description:


The task involves choosing the correct form of "don't" or "doesn't" to complete sentences in the simple present tense. The choice depends on whether the subject is singular or plural.

Solution:


To solve this, we need to understand the rules for using "don't" and "doesn't":
- "Don't" is used with plural subjects (e.g., you, we, they, cows).
- "Doesn't" is used with singular subjects (e.g., I, he, she, it, my sister, the dog).

Now, let's go through each sentence and choose the correct option:

1. (don't / doesn't) like chicken.
- Subject: Not explicitly mentioned, but implied as singular (likely "I").
- Correct: doesn't

2. My sister (don't / doesn't) eat pasta.
- Subject: "My sister" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

3. You (don't / doesn't) buy apples.
- Subject: "You" (plural).
- Correct: don't

4. The dog (don't / doesn't) bark.
- Subject: "The dog" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

5. My mum (don't / doesn't) read comics.
- Subject: "My mum" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

6. Ann and I (don't / doesn't) go to school.
- Subject: "Ann and I" (plural).
- Correct: don't

7. Cows (don't / doesn't) live in the sea.
- Subject: "Cows" (plural).
- Correct: don't

8. They (don't / doesn't) play football.
- Subject: "They" (plural).
- Correct: don't

9. My cat (don't / doesn't) chase mice.
- Subject: "My cat" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

10. Her friend (don't / doesn't) speak English.
- Subject: "Her friend" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

11. This man (don't / doesn't) smoke.
- Subject: "This man" (singular).
- Correct: doesn't

12. It (don't / doesn't) run very fast.
