B: Of course. What time (41) does Your flight leave?

A: At two. But I (42)am not doing Anything in the morning. You could help me pack my bags!

Explanation:

We use the present simple to talk about habits, facts and arranged timetables like the train or flight schedules.

To write affirmative sentences in present simple:

He/she/it + verb +s

For example, He eats lunch at noon every day.

We/you/they/you +verb

For example, We eat lunch at noon every day.

Note that the verb is without the s.

To write negative sentences in present simple:

He/she/it + does not / doesn't + verb

For example, He doesn't like broccoli.

We/you/they/you + do not / don't +verb

For example, We don't like broccoli.

To write questions in present simple:

Does + he/she/it + verb ?

For example, Does he like chocolate?

Do + we/you/they/you + verb?

For example, do you like chocolate?

36, 37, and 41 use the present simple to talk about timetables and schedules regarding the audition and flights.

We use the present continuous to talk about ongoing actions at the moment or arranged plans for the future.

To write affirmative sentences in present continuous:

He/she/it + is +verb +ing

For example, He is cooking dinner at the moment.

We/you/they/you + are + verb +ing

For example, We are leaving tomorrow.

To write negative sentences in present continuous:

He/she/it + is not / isn't +verb +ing

For example, he isn't cooking dinner at the moment.

We/you/they/you + are not/ aren't + verb +ing

For example, We aren't leaving tomorrow.

To write questions in present continuous:

Is + he/she/it +verb +ing?

For example, Is he cooking dinner at the moment?

Are + we/you/they/you + verb +ing?

For example, are you leaving tomorrow?

34, 35, 38, 39, 40, and 42 use the present continuous to talk about plans for the future. The main difference with the present simple in this aspect is that even though we can use both tenses to talk about the future, the present simple is for timetables and the present continuous, for plans or arranged dates that we or others make.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer: The answer is below.

Comparing:

Both of the themes from these excerpts are about how you can be able to learn despite differences in yourself from others.

Contrasting:

The theme of The Story of My Life by Helen Keller is that you are able to do anything you put your mind to, even if you are physically impaired in some way.

The main theme in the excerpt of The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, is that you can learn how to do things even if you are of a different ethnic background.

In other words, the main character in the story are different in different ways (one is blind, the other was of a different ethnicity)

Some people believe that Shakespeare isn’t the true author of his works because

HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

There was no record seen by Wilmot, to show that Shakespeare read a book, let alone write a letter.

Explanation:

James Wilmot, a reverend and literary scholar came up with an idea in 1781 that Shakespeare was not Shakespeare. He went to the house that William Shakespeare lived during his lifetime, and went through all the libraries in his Stratford residence and searched for correspondence.

There was no record seen by Wilmot, to show that Shakespeare read a book, let alone write a letter. He did not find Shakespeare signatures on the bottom of the old letters that were seen. He also stated that there was no property, belonging to Shakespeare, that was written on the on the endpapers of a Bible.

James Wilmot concluded that the plays of Shakespeare could not have been written by someone who did not leave an literary paper trail behind him.
