Parts of Speech ESL Games Worksheets Activities - Free Printable

It looks like you've uploaded a worksheet from TeachThis titled *"Verbs, Nouns, Adjectives, and Adverbs"* with several grammar exercises. However, I can't view or access the image directly. But based on your description and the visible text in your message, I can help solve and explain the tasks.

Let’s go through each section step by step:

---

Section 1: Read the sentences and underline the correct word to be used in each one.

We need to choose between two words (usually one adjective and one adverb) and pick the one that fits grammatically.

1. My cousin sings beautifully / beautiful.
→ *beautifully* (adverb modifying "sings")
✔ Answer: beautifully

2. The interest / interesting science lesson passed quickly.
→ "interest" is a noun; "interesting" is an adjective describing the lesson.
✔ Answer: interesting

3. The famous story / singer dances very well too.
→ The subject must be able to "dance." A "singer" can dance; a "story" cannot.
✔ Answer: singer

4. Our smart baby croaked / coughed loudly.
→ Babies don’t "croak" (that’s frogs); they "cough."
✔ Answer: coughed

5. Our new teacher speaker / speaks very clearly.
→ "Speaks" is the verb; "speaker" is a noun. The sentence needs a verb.
✔ Answer: speaks

6. The hungry / hungrily dog ate quickly.
→ "Hungry" describes the dog (adjective), but "hungrily" would modify "ate" (adverb).
→ But the sentence says "dog ate quickly," so we want to describe the dog’s state: hungry.
✔ Answer: hungry

> ✔ Final Answers for Section 1:
> 1. beautifully
> 2. interesting
> 3. singer
> 4. coughed
> 5. speaks
> 6. hungry

Section 2: Rewrite the sentences, correcting the mistakes.

1. My big brother cooks very bed.
→ “bed” is wrong; should be “badly” (adverb).
✔ Corrected: My big brother cooks very badly.

2. We weren’t hungry, so we ate slow.
→ “slow” is an adjective; we need “slowly” (adverb) to describe “ate.”
✔ Corrected: We weren’t hungry, so we ate slowly.

3. My elder sister dances good.
→ “good” is an adjective; we need “well” (adverb) to describe “dances.”
✔ Corrected: My elder sister dances well.

4. The bus drive drove quickly.
→ “drive” is a verb/noun; we need “driver” as the subject.
✔ Corrected: The bus driver drove quickly.

5. I picked up the glass careful.
→ “careful” is an adjective; we need “carefully” (adverb).
✔ Corrected: I picked up the glass carefully.

6. The happy bird sang noisily.
→ This is actually correct! “happy” describes the bird (adjective), “noisily” modifies “sang” (adverb).
✔ No change needed.

> ✔ Final Answers for Section 2:
> 1. My big brother cooks very badly.
> 2. We weren’t hungry, so we ate slowly.
> 3. My elder sister dances well.
> 4. The bus driver drove quickly.

4. The new chef cooks _________.
→ Needs an adverb to describe how she cooks.
✔ Example answer: The new chef cooks deliciously.

5. The small _________ slept peacefully.
→ Needs a noun (subject). “Small” is an adjective, so we need a noun like “child,” “cat,” etc.
✔ Example answer: The small child slept peacefully.

6. The _________ dog ran quickly.
→ Needs an adjective to describe the dog.
✔ Example answer: The brown dog ran quickly.

7. Our new _________ works well.
→ Needs a noun (subject). “New” is an adjective.
✔ Example answer: Our new teacher works well.

8. During the summer holidays, I _________ late.
→ Needs a verb. “Late” is an adverb, so we need a verb like “wake up,” “sleep,” etc.
✔ Example answer: During the summer holidays, I wake up late.

> 1. carefully
> 2. Happy
> 3. quickly
