Answer 1

Resposta:

Letra D

Explicação:

O there was é usado na forma singular e o there were na forma plural do verbo, logo:

I. está errado pois a forma negativa foi aplicada de maneira incorreta

( o certo é There were not many kids in the classroom)

II. está certo pois está sendo falado sobre apenas uma garota

III. está certo pois fala de apenas uma festa de aniversário

IV. está errado pois a frase fala de um bolo, não vários

(corrigindo a frase ficaria 'There was a cake on the table')

V. está certo pois fala de mais de um balão
