### Question 2: Select the correct form of the verb

We need to fill in the blanks with the correct form of the given verbs.

a. "We ______ in the park in the evenings. (play/plays)"

- Here, "We" is the subject, which is a plural pronoun. Therefore, we use the base form of the verb without the 's' (since it is a plural subject).
- Correct form: "play"

b. "Raj ______ to go back home. (Has, have, had)"

- "Raj" is a singular subject. For a singular third-person subject in the present tense, we use "has".
- Correct form: "has"

c. "The children ______ studying for their exams. (Is, am, are)"

- "The children" is a plural subject. For a plural subject, we use "are".
- Correct form: "are "

So, the answers are:
- a. play
- b. has
- c. are

### Question 3: Select the correct preposition

a. "The children are playing ______ the garden. (in, on, at)"

- When something or someone is inside a location or area, we use "in".
- Correct form: "in"

b. "______ Tuesday, we have a basketball match. (On, At, Under)"

- When referring to days of the week, we use "On".
- Correct form: "On"

c. "He jumped off ______ diving board. (the, an, a)"

- "The diving board" is a specific object. We use the definitive article "the" for specific items.
- Correct form: "the"

So, the answers are:
