Question 1:
My wife usually ________ (to drink) a cup of coffee before going to work. A. is drinking
B. drinks
Feedback In the test sentence ‘My wife usually ________ (to drink) a cup of coffee before going to work.’ we are given the time-signal ‘usually’ that is the frequency adverb used for regular and habitual events. Some other frequency adverbs: always, often, usually, sometimes, never, etc. And to talk about regular or habitual events we use the present simple: I read every night before I go to sleep.; She never plays football. The regular action or event can be a habit, a hobby, a daily event, a scheduled event or something that often happens. But remember that the present continuous can be used with words such as ‘always’ or ‘constantly’ to express the idea that something irritating or shocking often happens. Notice that the meaning is like the present simple, but with a negative emotion: She is always coming late.The present simple tense is the base form of the verb: I work in New York. But the third person(she/he/it) adds an -s: She works in New York.Therefore, we are to choose ANSWER 2 (drinks).
C. drink
D. has drunk
