"Hello" is the standard and most common way to greet someone in English. The other options are either farewells or polite words rather than greetings.
Which phrase means you are leaving or ending a conversation?
Thank you

Where do you live?
"How are you?" is the correct polite phrase to inquire about someone's well-being. The other options ask for different personal information.
How do you introduce yourself when meeting someone new?
My name is John.
I am fine.

"My name is John." is the proper way to introduce yourself and state your name. The other phrases are responses or farewells, not introductions.
Which question asks about someone's origin?
Where are you from?
How old are you?
What is your favorite color?

"Where are you from?" directly inquires about a person's place of origin. The other options ask about occupation, age, or preference.
Choose the correct reply to "Good morning!"
Good afternoon.
Good night.
Goodbye.
Good morning!
Responding with "Good morning!" matches the greeting and shows you understand the time-appropriate salutation. Other times of day or farewells are incorrect.
How do you respond to "Nice to meet you"?
Nice to meet you too.
Goodbye.
What's your name?
See you tomorrow.
"Nice to meet you too." properly acknowledges the greeting and reciprocates the sentiment. Other options change the topic or end the conversation.
Which question is polite when asking for someone's phone number?
Give me your phone number now.
Your phone number?
Can I have your phone number, please?
I want your phone number.
"Can I have your phone number, please?" is courteous and includes a polite request word. The other options are abrupt or lack politeness.
How would you say farewell in an informal setting?
See you later.
Pleased to meet you.
Goodbye.
Farewell.
"See you later." is an informal way to say goodbye among friends. "Farewell" is formal, and the other options are greetings or general goodbyes.
In a cafe, you want to order coffee. Which phrase is appropriate?
I like coffee.
Please give me a coffee, please.
I goes to coffee.
Coffee me.
"Please give me a coffee, please." is a polite way to place an order using proper structure. The others are ungrammatical or incomplete.
When meeting at the store, someone says "Can I help you?" How do you reply?
I goes home.
Yes, I need some milk, please.
No, I'm happy.
Maybe next week.
"Yes, I need some milk, please." appropriately answers the offer of help and states a request politely. Other responses are unrelated or ungrammatical.
Which sentence is grammatically correct?
She doesn't like apples.
She don't like apples.
She not like apples.
She aren't like apples.

Your age?
What is your old?

"How old are you?" follows the proper word order for questions in English. The other options do not follow standard question structure.

Give me that now.

Working teacher.

Me and he is students.
"He and I are students." correctly uses the subject pronouns and plural verb form. The other options misuse pronouns or verb agreement.
Choose the best response to "Could you tell me the way to the nearest bank, please?"
Bank is near.
I don't know.
Go straight, then turn left, it's next to the post office.
You go bank.
"Go straight, then turn left, it's next to the post office." gives clear, polite, and grammatically correct directions. The others are incomplete or incorrect instructions.
Which sentence uses the correct contraction for "you are"?
