Part 2: Choose the correct action verb to complete the sentences

Now, let’s choose the best verb from the options provided.

#### 1. I can __________ well.
Options: eat / write
👉 "I can write well." makes more sense than "eat well" in this context (though both are grammatically correct, "write" is more typical in such a sentence).
✔ write

#### 2. Mom __________ our dinner.
Options: cooks / walks
👉 Mom prepares food → cooks
✔ cooks

#### 3. __________ across the street.
Options: Walk / Run
👉 This is an imperative sentence. "Walk across the street" is safer and more common than "Run".
✔ Walk

#### 4. A frog can __________.
Options: read / hop
👉 Frogs don’t read; they hop.
✔ hop

#### 5. I like to __________ with my friends.
Options: talk / look
👉 You “talk” with friends, not “look” with them.
✔ talk

#### 6. My class __________ in the school play.
Options: cuts / sings
👉 Students perform in a play — likely singing. “Cuts” doesn’t make sense here.
✔ sings
