Which choice best maintains grammatical consistency in the sentence?

  1. A
    NO CHANGE
  2. B
    had taken
  3. C
    taking
  4. takeCevap

Cevap

take
The correct answer is 'take' because it is a present-tense verb that is parallel with the other verbs in the sentence, 'walk' and 'enjoy'. This choice ensures that the sentence maintains a consistent present-tense structure.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the verbs in the list within the second sentence.
The verbs in the list are 'walk', 'took', and 'enjoy'.
To maintain consistency, all verbs in a parallel list must share the same grammatical form and tense.
2
Analyze the tense of the surrounding verbs in the passage.
The verbs 'travel', 'walk', 'enjoy', and 'make' are all in the present tense.
The passage establishes a habitual present-tense timeline, meaning the underlined verb must also be in the present tense.
3
Choose the present-tense verb that fits the list's structure.
The present-tense verb 'take' is parallel to 'walk' and 'enjoy'.
Using 'take' prevents an illogical shift in tense and maintains parallel structure.
