  5. He has a lot of free time in the evenings. → He doesn't have a lot of free time in the evenings.
  6. She watches TV every morning. → She doesn't watch TV every morning.

📝 Rule reminder:
To make a sentence negative in Present Simple:

- Use 'doesn't' with he/she/it
- The main verb returns to its base form after don't/doesn't
