Question 1: The study materials include a prompt to identify items made from a specific material, such as leather.

A. Ano

Explanation: The prompt '14. Name three things that (make) of leather.' directly refers to leather as a material for item construction.

Question 2: Which of the following questions from the provided list are examples of 'cultural facts' questions?

A. Name three things that (use) by artists.

B. Name three languages that (speak) in Europe.

C. Name three programs that (install) on your computer.

D. Name three national dishes that (eat) in your country.

Explanation: Cultural facts questions from the list include those asking about languages spoken in a region (Europe) and national dishes consumed in a country, as these pertain to the customs, practices, and characteristics of a particular group or nation. Questions about things used by artists or computer programs are not cultural facts questions.

Question 3: The passive voice construction 'are used by artists' includes a preposition.

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The phrase 'used by artists' clearly demonstrates the use of the preposition 'by' to introduce the agent in a passive voice construction, as seen in the second item of the study materials.

A. three things that are made of leather

B. three books that were made into films

C. three singers who were born in the UK

D. three films that were shown in cinemas last year

Explanation: The phrase 'are made of leather' uses 'are' (a form of 'to be' in the present tense) followed by the past participle 'made,' which is the correct construction for the passive voice in the present tense. The other options use 'were made,' 'were born,' and 'were shown,' which are constructions for the passive voice in the past tense.

A. Ano
