Toasta AI Explanation
Why the answer is B, and why the others tempt you.
**The reasoning** This tests **subject-verb agreement** in the simple present tense. When your subject is a singular third-person pronoun (he, she, it), you must add **-s** or **-es** to the base verb. The formula: **She/He/It + verb + s/es** - Base verb = *go* - With "she" = *go* + *es* = **goes** So: "She **goes** to school" is correct. **Why the wrong options tempt you** - **A) "She go"** — This works for *I/You/We/They* go, but not for third-person singular. Missing the "-es" is the #1 mistake students make. - **C) "She going"** — This feels like present continuous, but it's incomplete. You'd need "is": "She **is going** to school." - **D) "She gone"** — "Gone" is past participle, and you'd need "has": "She **has gone** to school." **Quick takeaway** **Remember: She/He/It always takes an 's'** — if you see these pronouns in simple present tense, add that suffix to the verb. It's your grammar signature!
