Cambridge A2 Key (KET) — All Questions

My uncle is a football ___; he plays for a local team.

• a.playing
• b.play
• c.played
• d.player✓

To name the person who does an action we often add -er to the verb: 'play' → 'player'. The sentence needs a noun for a person.

Please drive ___ because the road is wet.

• a.carefully✓
• b.caring
• c.careful
• d.care

The word describes how to drive (a verb), so we need an adverb. We form it by adding -ly to the adjective: 'careful' → 'carefully'.

There are three ___ in my English class today.

• a.childrens
• b.childs
• c.child
• d.children✓

'Child' has an irregular plural: 'children'. It does not add -s, and 'childrens' is not a word.

This map is really ___ when you visit a new city.

• a.helpful✓
• b.helping
• c.help
• d.helper

We need an adjective to describe the map. Adding -ful to the noun/verb 'help' makes the adjective 'helpful'.
