1. Right answer: la joyería
The earrings (aretes in spanish) are hoop-shaped objects (although there are other shapes) that are worn to decorate the ears or other parts of the body. They are generally found at jewelry stores.
The options la librería (the bookstore), la zapatería (the shoe store), and la tienda de electrodomésticos (the appliance store
) are incorrect, because in those places you do not normally find earrings.
2. Right answer: El año pasado
If you want to refer to something that happened last year, you should use this expression to refer to this period in the past.
The other options are incorrect because:
-la semana pasada means last week
-hace dos días means two days ago
-anoche means last night
3. Right answer: compraron
This is a sentence written in preterite tense or simple past tense (indicative) with the 3rd person plural ellos (they). Therefore the correct conjugation of the Spanish verb comprar (to buy) is compraron (they bought).
So, the complete sentence is:
Ellos compraron una pulsera y una corbata.
They bought a bracelet and a tie
The other options although are in preterite tense are incorrect because:
-compró (he/she bought) is conjugated with the 3rd person singular.
-compramos (we bought) is conjugated with the 1st person plural.
-compraste (you bought) is conjugated with the 2nd person singular.
4. Right answer: jugaste
This is a sentence written in preterite tense or simple past tense (indicative) with the 2nd person singular tú (you). Therefore the correct conjugation of the Spanish verb jugar (to play) is jugaste (you played).
So, the complete sentence is:
Tú jugaste al tenis.
You played tennis.
The other options although are in preterite tense are incorrect because:
-jugué (I played) is conjugated with the 1st person singular.
-jugamos (we played) is conjugated with the 1st person plural.
-jugaron (they played) is conjugated with the 3rd person plural.
