Let's solve the task step by step.
The worksheet is about the
Present Perfect Tense, which is used to talk about actions that happened at an unspecified time before now or actions that started in the past and continue to the present. It is formed using
have/has + past participle.
We are asked to answer each question using the present perfect tense, based on the given "Yes" or "No" answers.

1. Have you finished your homework yet?
(No)
→ Since the answer is
No, we say:
No, I haven't finished my homework yet.
✔ *Explanation:* Use "haven't" (have not) because it's "you" (subject), and "finished" is the past participle of "finish."

2. Has Peter written the letter yet?
(Yes)
→ Since the answer is
Yes, we say:
Yes, he has written the letter yet.
Wait — this is a common mistake! Let’s double-check.
Actually, the correct way to respond affirmatively to “Has Peter written the letter yet?” is:
Yes, he has already written the letter.
But note: The original example uses
"already" in positive answers and
"yet" in negative or questions.
So, even though the question says "yet", in the
positive response, we usually use
"already" instead of "yet".
So the correct answer is:
Yes, he has already written the letter.
✔ *Explanation:* "He" requires "has", and "written" is the past participle. "Already" is used in positive statements.

3. Have you made the dinner yet?
(Yes)
→ Answer:
Yes, I have already made the dinner.
✔ *Explanation:* "I" → "have", "made" is the past participle. Use "already" for positive responses.

4. Have they put the books back on the desk yet?
(No)
→ Answer:
No, they haven't put the books back on the desk yet.
✔ *Explanation:* "They" → "have", so "haven't" (have not). Keep "yet" in negative answers.

5. Has Tom done his homework yet?
(Yes)
→ Answer:
Yes, he has already done his homework.
✔ *Explanation:* "Tom" → "he" → "has". Use "already" in positive answers.
---
6. Have you spoken to the teacher yet?
(Yes)
→ Answer:
Yes, I have already spoken to the teacher.
✔ *Explanation:* "I" → "have", "spoken" is the past participle of "speak". Use "already" in affirmative answers.
---
✔ Final Answers:
1. No, I haven't finished my homework yet.
2. Yes, he has already written the letter.
3. Yes, I have already made the dinner.
4. No, they haven't put the books back on the desk yet.
