1. Jose reads the daily paper. 
Since this is a habit (this is something Jose is doing on the daily), you need to use present simple tense, which is reads. This is something he does every day, which is why only the option reads is correct. Is reading would be correct if the sentence said 'Jose is reading the paper at the moment.' You also need to use the article the in front of paper. 

2. Earl can't go to the game today.
The negative form of the verb can is either cannot (as one word), or can't (if you want to shorten it). So, first you write can, and then use the apostrophe ('), and then add -t. The word cant means something else, and the forms can'nt and cant' do not exist.

3. Mia said the movie was good.
Since the movie is a singular noun (there is only one movie), you need to use the singular verb as well, which is the word was. Were is used for plural nouns, which is not the case here. As good doesn't really mean anything so that is the wrong option as well.

4. Jeff needs to mail the letter.
You need to use the infinitive form of the verb here, which is to mail. Infinitives always look the same: they contain the word TO and the actual verb (to sing, to dance, to sleep, etc). Since you see the word needs in front of the line, it means that you need to use the infinitive since they go together.

The answers that would complete the sentences are as follows: 
Jose reads the daily paper. This uses the present form of the verb because it denotes a habit. Earl can't go to the game today. This is the contraction of the words can and not. Mia said the movie was good. The past form of the verb is used because the action has been completed. Jeff needs the letter mailed. This sentence uses the -ed form of the verb, but functions as an adjective which describes the noun letter.

1. Hyphens are used to join words, indicate pauses, and to seperate syllables. However, they are not usually used with prefixes.

2. That is true.

3. Man and eating, because when joined by a hyphen, it is man-eating which is a word commonly seen in literary books and magazines.
