1. EMPEROR PENGUINS

Emperor penguins a (live) live in the Antarctic. The sea b (provide) provides all their food, so they are good swimmers. They c (dive) dive under the water and d (hold) hold their breath for up to 20 minutes. When the weather is very cold, the penguins e (stand) stand in a group. This f (keep) keeps them warm. The Emperor is the only penguin that g (breed) breeds in winter in Antarctica. Each female h (lay) lays one egg in May or June. They then i (return) return to the sea to feed. Each male then j (stand) stands with an egg on his feet. His feet k (keep) keep the egg warm. He l (sleep) sleeps most of the time and m (eat) eats no food for about 65 days. When the egg n (hatch) hatches, the female o (come) comes back and p (find) finds her mate. Now the females q (feed) feed the young penguins. The male r (spend) spends his time eating. After a few weeks, the male s (return) returns to the family, and then both parents t (look after) look after the chick.

Certainly! Here are the complete answers to your questions with explanations for each:

2. Complete the sentence with the negative form of the verb in brackets. Use contractions.

a. You (do) don't do any of the cooking!
(Already provided in the question as an example.)

b. My brother (play) doesn't play tennis because he (like) doesn't like it.
(Explanation: For both verbs, use the negative form "doesn't" because the subject is "my brother," which is third person singular.)

c. I (think) don't think that's a good idea.
(Explanation: Use "don't" because the subject is "I" and we need the negative form.)

d. Teachers (work) don't work at weekends.
(Explanation: Use "don't" because the subject "teachers" is plural, and we are forming a negative.)

e. The government (agree) doesn't agree with the new EU laws.
(Explanation: Use "doesn't" because "the government" is third person singular.)

f. We (want) don't want to see that film because it looks boring.
(Explanation: Use "don't" because the subject "we" is plural, and we need the negative form.)

g. His mum (drive) doesn't drive a fast car.
(Explanation: Use "doesn't" because "his mum" is third person singular.)

h. Those new mp3 players (be) aren't very expensive.
(Explanation: Use "aren't" because "be" in the negative form for plural subjects like "mp3 players" is "are not," contracted to "aren't.")

i. These birds (stay) don't stay in the country during winter.
(Explanation: Use "don't" because "these birds" is plural.)

j. He (sing) doesn't sing, does he?
(Explanation: Use "doesn't" because "he" is third person singular and the sentence is negative.)

3. Complete the sentence with the affirmative or negative form of the verb in brackets. Use contractions.

a. The plane (leave) leaves in half an hour, but Nick (not / be) isn't at the airport yet.
(Explanation: Use "leaves" because the plane is third person singular. Use "isn't" because it's the negative form of "is.")

b. My best friend (love) loves science fiction films, but they (not / interest) don't interest me.
(Explanation: Use "loves" for third person singular "my best friend." Use "don't interest" because the subject is "they," which is plural.)

c. I (not / study) don't study chemistry because it (be) is difficult.
(Explanation: Use "don't study" for the negative form with "I." Use "is" because the subject "it" is third person singular.)

d. I (not / dance) don't dance because I (look) look stupid.
(Explanation: Use "don't dance" for the negative form with "I." Use "look" because it's affirmative and the subject is "I.")

e. The Sun (not / go) doesn't go round the Earth; the Earth (go) goes round the Sun!
(Explanation: Use "doesn't go" for the negative form with third person singular "the Sun." Use "goes" for the affirmative form with third person singular "the Earth.")

f. My new computer (do) does lots more things than my old one, and it (not / crash) doesn't crash.
(Explanation: Use "does" for the affirmative form with "my new computer." Use "doesn't crash" for the negative form with "it.")

g. My dad (not / have) doesn't have any qualifications, but he (have) has a really good job.
(Explanation: Use "doesn't have" for the negative form with "my dad." Use "has" for the affirmative form with "he.")

h. Fire (need) needs oxygen to burn. It (not / burn) doesn't burn without oxygen.
(Explanation: Use "needs" for the affirmative form with third person singular "fire." Use "doesn't burn" for the negative form.)

i. My teacher (not / own) doesn't own a mobile phone because some people think they (be) are bad for your health.
(Explanation: Use "doesn't own" for the negative form with "my teacher." Use "are" for the affirmative form with "they.")

j. According to scientists, animals (live) live longer if they (not / eat) don't eat too much.
