yo ___ el suelo en el comedor después de la cena.

barro
cocino
corto
doblo

Explanation:

Analyze the sentence structure

The sentence is: "Yo ___ el suelo en el comedor después de la cena."
This translates to: "I ___ the floor in the dining room after dinner."
The subject is "Yo" (I), which requires a first-person singular verb conjugation ending in "-o" in the present tense. All options are conjugated in this form.

Translate and evaluate the verb options

We need to find the verb that logically fits "el suelo" (the floor) using Spanish Household Verbs:

• barro (from barrer): to sweep. "Yo barro el suelo" means "I sweep the floor." This is highly logical.
• cocino (from cocinar): to cook. "I cook the floor" is incorrect.
• corto (from cortar): to cut. "I cut the floor" is incorrect.
• doblo (from doblar): to fold. "I fold the floor" is incorrect.

Select the correct option

The only verb that makes contextual sense with "el suelo" (the floor) is barro (sweep).

Answer:

• (A) barro (Correct answer)
• (B) cocino
• (C) corto
• (D) doblo
