1. Andy only started painting the bedrooms yesterday, so he hasn't finished painting them yet. Nobody works that fast.
Explanation: The verb "finish" is used in its base form without "s" because it follows the modal verb "hasn't", which is the negative form of "have". "Hasn't" is used because the action of finishing the painting has not been completed yet.

2. Edward has lost his wallet. He must have left it in the supermarket. That’s the only place he took it out of his pocket.
Explanation: The phrase "must have" is used to indicate a strong possibility or probability. In this case, it suggests that it is very likely that Edward left his wallet in the supermarket since it is the only place he took it out of his pocket.

3. How can I stop them fighting? My sister’s always fighting with her friends, and she’s bigger than me!
Explanation: The phrase "can I" is used to express ability or permission. In this context, it means that the person asking the question wants to know how they can intervene and prevent their sister and her friends from fighting.

4. I’m sorry I hit you with my racket, but how was I supposed to know that you were behind me? You didn’t make any noise when you walked on court.
Explanation: The phrase "was I supposed to know" is used to express that the person had no way of knowing something. In this case, the person apologizing for hitting someone with their racket explains that they couldn't have known the person was behind them because they didn't make any noise.

5. It’s not clear why Tom got so ill so suddenly. I suppose he must have eaten something poisonous.
Explanation: The phrase "I suppose he must have" is used to suggest a possibility or probability. It means that the speaker thinks it is likely that Tom got ill because he ate something poisonous.
