Answer 1

As frases completas com os verbos na forma correta ficam da seguinte forma:

I never exercise. I don't particularly like gyms. They make me uncomfortable. I hate feeling like everyone is staring at me and judging my body while I am just trying to burn a few calories. But I thought a great trainer could teach me a few moves I could use to work out at home.

I - Exercise =  Esse verbo está no simple present, e como o sujeito está na primeira pessoa do singular, ele permanece na sua forma infinitiva sem a partícula to.

II - Don't = Quando o sujeito é a primeira pessoa do singular no simple present, usamos o verbo auxiliar "don't" na negativa.

III - Make = Quando o sujeito é a terceira pessoa do plural, o verbo no simple present permanece na forma infinitiva sem a partícula to.

IV - Hate = Temos sua conjungação de acordo com o Simple Present para sujeitos da primeira pessoa do singular.

V - Is staring = Esse verbo se encontra no present continuous, ou seja, uma ação que começou no presente e ainda está ocorrendo.

VI - Am = Temos a conjugação do verbo to be para o sujeito 'I'.

VII - Teach = Embora o sujeito esteja na terceira pessoa do singular, o verbo se conjuga dessa maneira devido a presença do modal "Could".

VIII - To work out = Da mesma maneira, a presença do "Could" exige que o verbo fique em sua forma infinitiva.
