Question 7

Match each base form to its past simple form.

Correct answer

  • shutshut
  • costcost
  • spreadspread
  • betbet
  • quitquit
  • splitsplit

Explanation

These past-simple matches draw on 6 verbs using an unchanged three-form pattern. Use the stored irregular class for the past tense: an -ed default or a lookalike from another class cannot establish the match; the dominant class is an unchanged three-form pattern (6 of 6), with 1 pattern class represented.
