Question

the events begin in the past and end in the present.completeselect four verb-tense errors in the list below.□ winona and liam decided to audition□ they have spend every day□ they both will be very nervous.□ she sings a song from a famous musical□ and read her lines perfectly□ now they awaited the resultsdone

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. "they have spend every day": The present perfect tense requires the past participle "spent" instead of the base verb "spend".
  2. "and read her lines perfectly": This is paired with the present tense "sings", so it should use the present tense "reads" to maintain consistency for a present action.
  3. "Now they awaited the results": The adverb "now" indicates a present context, so the present tense "await" should be used instead of the past tense "awaited".
  4. "They both will be very nervous": Given the context of events spanning past to present leading to current waiting for results, this future tense is inconsistent; the correct form should reflect a current state (e.g., "are very nervous"), making this a tense error for the given timeline.

Answer:

  • they have spend every day
  • and read her lines perfectly
  • Now they awaited the results
  • They both will be very nervous
