Grade 10 french â Language Structures Quiz
1. Choose the correct present-tense form to complete the sentence about morning routine: "Je ... Ă six heures."
With a reflexive verb in the first person singular, use the reflexive pronoun 'me' and the verb conjugated for 'je': 'je me réveille'.
2. Choose the correct negative form for a reflexive verb: "Nous ... pas tard." (to go to bed)
Negation surrounds the conjugated verb: 'nous ne nous couchons pas'. The reflexive pronoun stays with the verb.
3. Choose the correct passé composé form (agreement matters) for: "Hier, elle ... tard." (se lever)
Reflexive verbs use ĂȘtre as auxiliary; the past participle agrees with the subject: feminine singular 'levĂ©e' after 'elle'.
4. Choose the correct futur proche to say: "Cet aprĂšs-midi, je ... Ă©tudier pour l'examen."
Futur proche = present of 'aller' (je vais) + infinitive. 'Je vais Ă©tudier' is correct.
5. Choose the correct conjugation to express obligation: "Tu ... faire tes devoirs." (devoir)
For 'tu', the correct present form of 'devoir' is 'tu dois'.
6. Choose the correct present-tense form for ability: "Nous ... parler français en classe." (pouvoir)
'Nous' requires the present form 'pouvons' of 'pouvoir'.

For plural noun 'livres' and plural owners 'ils', use 'leurs' (plural possessive): 'leurs livres'.
8. Choose the correct adjective agreement: "La leçon est ..." (interesting)
'Leçon' is feminine singular, so the adjective must agree: 'intéressante' (feminine singular).

'Depuis' is used to indicate an action that started in the past and continues in the present: 'J'étudie le français depuis trois ans.'
10. Replace the direct object with the correct pronoun: "J'ai acheté le livre hier. Je ... ai lu."
Le livre (masculine singular) is replaced by the direct object pronoun 'le' which becomes 'l'' before a vowel: 'Je l'ai lu.'
11. Choose the correct pronoun replacing 'Ă la bibliothĂšque': "Nous allons ... aprĂšs la classe."
The pronoun 'y' replaces places introduced by 'Ă ' (Ă la bibliothĂšque): 'Nous y allons.'
12. Choose the correct negative form in passé composé: "Il n'... pas assisté au cours." (assister)
The full negative sentence is 'Il n'a pas assisté au cours.' The auxiliary is 'a' (avoir). The question asked to fill the verb part, so 'a' is correct.

For 'tu', the present form of 'aller' is 'vas': 'Comment vas-tu Ă l'Ă©cole?'

Partitive 'du' is used for unspecified quantity of a masculine noun: 'Elle boit du thé.'

'Il faut' is the impersonal expression meaning 'one must' or 'it is necessary': 'Il faut étudier pour réussir.'

The correct structure is 'ĂȘtre en train de' + infinitive, conjugated: 'Je suis en train d'Ă©tudier.'

When there is an infinitive, the object pronoun is placed before the infinitive: 'Je vais les faire.'

With 'ĂȘtre' the past participle agrees with the subject: plural masculine 'ils' â 'arrivĂ©s'.
