Help Sam describe his evening routine to his new roommate. Choose the best word for each gap.
Every evening, I _________________________ dinner for the whole family. After we eat, my sister _________________________ the table while I _________________________ the dishes.

The correct answers are make, clears, and wash.

We say make dinner (not "do dinner") — "make" collocates with meals (make breakfast, make lunch, make dinner).

We say clear the table — this means removing plates and glasses after a meal.

We say wash the dishes (or "do the dishes") — "wash" is the natural partner for dishes when talking about cleaning them.
