select the correct answer.\nwhich verb form correctly completes this sentence?\ncristina y ricardo ______ lavar los platos.\na. van\nb. deben\nc. necesita\nd. tiene que
Answer
Brief Explanations:
- Option A: "van" would form "van a lavar" (are going to wash), but the sentence lacks the preposition "a", so it is grammatically incomplete here.
- Option B: "deben" is the plural present tense of "deber" (must/have to), which agrees with the plural subject "Cristina y Ricardo" and correctly pairs with the infinitive "lavar" to form a grammatically complete and logical sentence.
- Option C: "necesita" is singular present tense, which does not agree with the plural subject.
- Option D: "tiene que" is singular present tense, which does not agree with the plural subject (the correct plural form would be "tienen que").
Answer:
B. deben
