Help finish this disastrous party planning text message by choosing the right contractions.
The surprise party _________________________ going as planned! I _________________________ got the balloons yet, and the guests _________________________ know where to park their cars.

Answers and Explanations:

  • The surprise party isn't going as planned!

    "The surprise party" is a singular subject (it), so we use isn't with the "-ing" verb (going).

  • I haven't got the balloons yet...

    We use haven't got to show that we do not possess or hold something.

  • ...and the guests don't know where to park their cars.

    "The guests" is a plural subject (they). We use don't with the base verb "know" for plural subjects in the present simple tense.
