Let's fill in the blanks with the correct forms of 'was', 'wasn't', 'were', or 'weren't'.
1. A: Where were you last night, Mark?
B: I was at the cinema with Peter.
2. A: Annie was at school yesterday.
B: Yes, I know. She was sick.
3. A: Were the children at home yesterday morning?
B: No, they weren't. They were at the zoo.
4. A: Were you and Sophie at the mall yesterday morning?
B: Yes. We were in Jenny's clothes shop because there was a sale on.
Explanation:
* 'Was' is used for singular subjects (I, he, she, it).
* 'Were' is used for plural subjects (we, you, they) and the singular 'you'.
* 'Wasn't' is the negative form of 'was'.
* 'Weren't' is the negative form of 'were'.
In the first question, we use 'were' because the subject is 'you'. In the answer, we use 'was' because the subject is 'I'.
In the second question, we use 'was' for 'Annie' because it's singular. Similarly, 'she' takes 'was'.
In the third question, 'the children' is plural, so we use 'were'. The negative 'they' requires 'weren't', and then another 'were' for the zoo statement.
Finally, in the fourth question, 'you and Sophie' is plural, needing 'were'. The response includes 'we', which also uses 'were', and 'there' indicating 'a sale', utilizes 'was'.
