Crossword Puzzle - Animals

Let's solve the crossword based on the animal descriptions:

  1. Tiger - Orange with black, grey or brown stripes, it's a big cat
  2. Camel - This animal has one or two humps, is usually brown and lives in deserts
  3. Deer - This animal lives in the forest, has horns
  4. Panda - It's a very beautiful big brown and orange "cat" with black spots
  5. Rhino - It's a big grey animal that has a horn on its nose
  6. Cobra - It's a big dangerous poisonous snake with a hood
  7. Elephant - This huge animal has got tusks and very big ears

Write the verbs with -s or -es

Let's add the correct ending to each verb:

  1. (bite) it → bites
  2. (cry) she → cries
  3. (hide) he → hides
  4. (relax) Tom → relaxes
  5. (swim) Sandra → swims
  6. (wash) the cat → washes
  7. Dogs bury bones in the ground → buries
  8. Kangaroos carry their babies in a special bag → carries

Rule reminder:
- Add -s to most verbs
- Add -es to verbs ending in -sh, -ch, -x, -ss, -o
- For verbs ending in consonant + y, change y to i and add -es

Complete the sentences using the given verbs

Available verbs: take, swim, use, hunt, carry, hide

  1. Mike always takes a shower every morning.
  2. Tigers hunt big animals, like deer.

Note: We use the base form of the verb after 'always' and add -s/-es because the subject (Mike/Tigers) is in third person singular.

Complete the sentences. Use present simple.

From what's visible in the image, I can see:

  1. Tim is very good at computers. She ___ her computer a lot.
  2. Lisa ___ very good at computers.

The correct answers would be:

  1. Tim is very good at computers. She uses her computer a lot.
  2. Lisa is very good at computers.

Explanation:
- For sentence 3, we use 'uses' because:
- The subject (She) is third person singular
- The verb 'use' needs -s in present simple third person singular
- For sentence 4, we use 'is' because:
- It's a form of the verb 'to be'
- 'Lisa' is third person singular
- 'Is' is the correct form of 'to be' for third person singular in present simple
