Answer 1

Answer:

1) What were the kids doing when you saw them

reason - Here, the word 'saw' is V2 of the verb, so, the verb 'are' should be changed into 'were'

2) Carla has always wanted to try skydiving.

reason - Here,  you can also use doesn't but it's not an auxiliary verb. you can also use verb in between nouns and adverbs.

3) Where did you go on your summer vacation?

reason - You should use verb 'did' when there's no v2 or v3 verbs in a sentence, and word s in a sentence without ending with 'ing'

4) What do you think she has call you like she said she would.

reason- use has to make the sentence more simple and meaningful

Answer 2

Answer:

1.

• What were the kids doing when you saw them?

2.

• Carla has always wanted to try skydiving.

3.

• Where did you go on your summer vacation

4.

• What do you think she didn't call you like she said she would.

Explanation :

• Saw in the first sentence suggests that helping verb, were is correct because kids is a plural number and there is ing after doing ( do + ing = doing).

• In second sentence, Carla is a third person singular number, that's why 'has' has been used after it. Morover the sentence is in mood of Present Perfect Tense, past participle form, 'wanted' means it.

• In third sentence except did all options are logicless to complete the sentence because root verb ( go ) is used when did is used as a helping verb in a sentence.

• In fourth sentence, except didn't, none can complete the meaning of the sentence.
