Answer 1

Answer:

1..I have written a nice story

Answer 2

1. I have written a nice story.
2. They were waiting for their school bus.

In the first solution(1), instead of 'has', 'have' should be used.

• This is because 'has' is used only against singular pronouns i.e., he, she, it; or before any singular noun.
• On the other hand, 'have' is used before plural pronouns i.e., they, I; or before plural nouns.

In the second solution(2), the past continuous tense of the verb 'wait' is to be used.

• Since there was already the usage of were it was only fitting that 'waiting' was used instead of 'wait'.
• This is because 'was' and 'were' are used only in situations where the tense of the verb is past continuous.
