Read through the following questions; each one is missing an auxiliary verb. Choose the correct verb for each question.
Auxiliary verbs (also known as 'helping verbs') include be, do and have. They are used along with the main verb in a sentence to make questions, negative statements, passives and tenses.
I sow (have seen) in a reading of the site and in many other situations these kind of grammar structure:
A)They are close "to making" an arrest.
Do you think it is possible to use "to make" in the place of "to making" or there is a subtle difference between the two cases?
For instance whilst talking I used a sentence like:
B)It allows the "built up" of ....
Is it correct or I should say "the building up"?
Thanks!

You probably know lot's of English words, and that each word can have different forms depending on the sentence structure. Put your understanding of English language grammar to the test with this exercise! Read through the ten sentences and choose the correct form for each missing word.
"This shirt costs $50."
"This shirt is costing $50."
Which is correct? Why?
The first sentence - "This shirt costs $50" - is correct because the price of the shirt is fixed; it's a fixed state and therefore we use a state verb, costs.
