Reviewing the third person singular across the year.
Which sentence is correct?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: A)She goes to school by bicycle.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "She goes to school by bicycle". The third person -s is the single most persistent structure in Grade 6 English and the one most worth revisiting at the end of the year, because a student who has internalised it can apply it to any new verb. Starting the second review with it puts a secure item first and lets the harder reading and evaluation work that follows rest on a stable base.

Respuesta correcta: A)She goes to school by bicycle.
A)She goes to school by bicycle.The third person singular of the present simple is goes, which agrees with the subject she.
B)She go to school by bicycle.The base form go does not agree with a third person singular subject, which requires goes.
C)She is go to school by bicycle.After the auxiliary is the bare infinitive is required, and this sentence should use goes without any auxiliary.
D)She going to school by bicycle.The -ing form needs an auxiliary such as is to form a verb, so it cannot stand alone here.

Reviewing the vocabulary of description and appearance.
Which word describes a person with a small body size?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: D)short
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "short". The appearance vocabulary from the second period is what lets a student write and understand descriptions, and keeping it separate from build, age and behaviour is what stops the words being swapped. The distractors are all real descriptive words that belong to different categories, which is precisely the confusion a review should surface.

Respuesta correcta: D)short
A)quietQuiet describes how a person behaves rather than how the body is built.
B)thinThin describes a build with little flesh on it, which is a different measurement from height.
C)youngYoung describes age rather than physical size, so it does not answer the question asked.
D)shortShort is the ordinary word for a person whose height or length is below average.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "short". The appearance vocabulary from the second period is what lets a student write and understand descriptions, and keeping it separate from build, age and behaviour is what stops the words being swapped.

Reading a longer text and following a change over time.
Read: "When Daniela was ten she lived in Bucaramanga and she was afraid of dogs. Now she is fifteen, she lives in Cali and she has a dog called Rufus." What is true about Daniela now?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: B)She has a dog.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "She has a dog". The text gives a before and an after, and the whole task is keeping the two apart and answering about the right one. Students who answer from the first half of the text will give any of the other three options, so reading to the second sentence is what separates the correct answer from the plausible ones.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: B)She has a dog.
A)She is afraid of dogs.The fear belonged to the period when she was ten, and the text contrasts it with her life now.
B)She has a dog.The present sentence says she has a dog called Rufus, so owning one is true of her now.
C)She lives in Bucaramanga.Bucaramanga is where she lived before, and the text places her in Cali in the present.
D)She is ten years old.Ten is the age she was before, and she is fifteen in the present described.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "She has a dog". The text gives a before and an after, and the whole task is keeping the two apart and answering about the right one.

Choosing the right preposition of place for a description.
Which sentence correctly says that the cat is under the table?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: C)The cat is under the table.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "The cat is under the table". The prepositions of place were established in the second period and returned in the directions of the fourth, and this is the clearest illustration of what each one actually means. Fixing the meaning of under alongside the other three is what lets a student choose a preposition from the situation rather than reaching for the commonest one.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: C)The cat is under the table.
A)The cat is in the table.In would place the cat inside the table itself, which is not a normal position for a table.
B)The cat is on the table.On describes a position in contact with the top surface, which is a different relation.
C)The cat is under the table.Under describes a position below something, which is the relation the question describes.
D)The cat is at the table.At names a point in general and does not express a position below a named object.

Using a frequency adverb with a main verb in the present simple.
Which sentence correctly says that a student never drinks coffee?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: A)She never drinks coffee.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "She never drinks coffee". A frequency adverb has to sit in one fixed position in front of the main verb, and that position is a common source of error precisely because the sentence is otherwise short. Distributing the adverb correctly in the affirmative, the negative and the question is the whole of the third period's work, and this item closes that sequence.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: A)She never drinks coffee.
A)She never drinks coffee.The frequency adverb never goes before the main verb drinks in the present simple, which is the required position.
B)She drinks never coffee.The adverb belongs before the main verb, and placing it after it breaks the required word order.
C)She doesn't drink never coffee.Placing the adverb after the main verb is wrong, and the double negative is not how this meaning is expressed.
D)She is never drink coffee.After the auxiliary is the bare infinitive is required, so the verb should be drink without the -ing form.
💡 Explicación

Choosing a response that helps a visitor who is lost.
A visitor asks you how to get to the park. Which reply is most helpful?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: D)Go straight ahead and turn left at the corner; the park is in front of you.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is the one with a direction, a landmark and a way to recognise the destination. Being useful to a listener means giving the information they actually need, and the three distractors each substitute something else, a definition, a personal habit or a refusal. That is a judgement about what a response should accomplish, and it is the kind of competence the speaking and writing parts of the exam look for.

Respuesta correcta: D)Go straight ahead and turn left at the corner; the park is in front of you.
A)I don't know where the park is.This is a truthful answer but it refuses the request, and a better reply would suggest asking somebody else.
B)The park is a place where people go.This is a definition of a park rather than a direction, so it gives no usable help.
C)I go there sometimes.This describes the speaker's own habit and tells the visitor nothing about how to get there.
D)Go straight ahead and turn left at the corner; the park is in front of you.This gives a direction, a landmark for the turn and a way to recognise the destination, so the visitor can follow it.

Using the gerund after a verb of liking with two activities.
Which sentence correctly uses the gerund form after a verb of liking?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: B)I like swimming and cycling.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "I like swimming and cycling". Two activities joined by and have to match in form, and students regularly get the first right and the second wrong. Consistency across a coordinated pair is a small detail that appears constantly in longer student writing, so it is worth closing the year's grammar work on.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: B)I like swimming and cycling.
A)I like swimming and to cycle.The two activities have to match in form, so the second should be cycling rather than to cycle.
B)I like swimming and cycling.After the verb to like both activities take the gerund form, which is what this sentence uses for each one.
C)I likes swimming and cycling.The subject is I, which takes the base form like rather than the third person likes.
D)I like swim and cycle.The bare infinitives are not used after the verb to like, which takes the -ing form for activities.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "I like swimming and cycling". Two activities joined by and have to match in form, and students regularly get the first right and the second wrong.

Finding the main idea of a short text.
Read: "Camilo wanted to join the football team. He trained every morning for a year. At the end he was chosen, and he said the daily practice was what made the difference." What is the main idea?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: A)Camilo practised a long time and succeeded.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "Camilo practised a long time and succeeded". A main idea has to cover the whole text rather than repeat one sentence of it, and each distractor here is a real fact drawn from the text that fails only because it is too narrow. Judging which detail represents the thread of a passage is the comprehension skill the final review exists to consolidate.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: A)Camilo practised a long time and succeeded.
A)Camilo practised a long time and succeeded.The three sentences together carry the effort from the wanting to the success, and the practice is what the final sentence identifies.
B)Camilo wanted to join the football team.That is the first sentence and the starting point of the story, but the text goes on to explain what happened next.
C)Camilo was chosen for the team.Being chosen is the outcome rather than the thread that runs through the whole text.
D)Playing football is difficult.The text is about one person's experience and never makes a general claim about the difficulty of the sport.

Finding the error in a description written with the wrong word order.
A student writes: "My teacher has the hair black and long." What is the problem?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: D)The adjectives are in the wrong order for English.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is "The adjectives are in the wrong order for English". English orders short adjectives before long ones and Spanish often reverses this, so it is a real and specific error rather than a vague one. Naming the rule precisely is what turns a feeling that something sounds wrong into a correction the student can actually apply.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: D)The adjectives are in the wrong order for English.
A)The verb has is in the wrong tense.The present simple has is correct for a general description, and the tense is not the fault.
B)Hair cannot be described with an adjective.Adjectives describe hair all the time, as in long hair, so the use of the adjectives is not the problem.
C)The article is missing before teacher.The article is present in the sentence as written, and a generic description with my does not need one anyway.
D)The adjectives are in the wrong order for English.English places short adjectives before long ones, so the sentence should be black and long hair rather than the other way round.

Deciding which text is the best final paragraph of a school report.
You must write a short final paragraph about your year. Which text is best?
Elige una opción para comprobar tu respuesta.
Respuesta correcta: C)This year I learned to describe people, to talk about my routines and to ask for directions, and I want to practise all of it next year.
💡 Explicación
The correct answer is the one that names specific content and a clear intention. A final paragraph is judged by whether it tells a reader something true and particular, and the three distractors each substitute a truism, a vagueness or a comment on the writing itself. Choosing particular content over general approval is the last and highest habit in this review, and it is the one that carries a student furthest in the written exam.
Ver respuesta
Respuesta correcta: C)This year I learned to describe people, to talk about my routines and to ask for directions, and I want to practise all of it next year.
A)I did many things and they were good and I liked them all.This is entirely general, and a reader cannot tell what the writer actually did or learned.
B)English is a subject and school is a place.Both statements are true but neither says anything about the writer's year, so the paragraph is empty of content.
C)This year I learned to describe people, to talk about my routines and to ask for directions, and I want to practise all of it next year.This names real content from the year, shows what the writer wants to do next and is written in clear connected sentences.
D)Next year I will not write this paragraph again.This is about the paragraph rather than about the year, and it gives the reader no useful information.
