read the paragraph and answer the question:
last saturday, my school organized a community clean - up activity. over fifty students and teachers volunteered to pick up trash along the beach. it was hard work, but we were proud to help protect the environment.

Explanation:

1. El verbo debe estar en el pretérito simple porque la acción ocurrió ayer. "Went" es la forma correcta del verbo "go" en pretérito simple.
2. En una oración condicional de tipo 1, el verbo en la cláusula condicional se escribe en presente simple. "Studies" es la forma correcta para la tercera persona singular de "study".
3. La acción principal estaba ocurriendo cuando se produjo una acción secundaria en el pasado. Se usa el pretérito imperfecto "were eating".
4. La acción se repite regularmente (cada fin - de - semana), por lo que se usa el presente simple. "My friends" es plural, así que se usa "play".

Answer:

1. B. went
2. A. studies
3. C. were eating
4. B. play
