1. Let me tell you a long (forgetting/forgotten) story.
2. “Go and catch a (falling/fallen) star… ”

5. What (an/a/the) terrible shock!
6. What (-/a/the) tasty vegetables!
7. It is such (an/a/the) attractive town!
The correct word to complete the sentence is "forgotten." The verb "tell" requires the past participle form of the verb "forget," which is "forgotten." This means that the story that the speaker wants to tell has been forgotten by someone.
2. "Go and catch a (falling/fallen) star… "
The correct word to complete the sentence is "fallen." The phrase "catch a star" suggests that the star is already in a fallen state, so the past participle form of the verb "fall" is used, which is "fallen."
3. The two banks of the river are (connecting/connected) by a bridge.
The correct word to complete the sentence is "connected." The phrase "are connected" indicates that there is an existing connection between the two banks provided by the bridge. The present participle form of the verb "connect" is used, which is "connected."
4. The letter (writing/written) by him was very long.
The correct word to complete the sentence is "written." The past participle form of the verb "write" is used to describe the condition of the letter. The sentence implies that the letter was already written by him in the past.
5. What (an/a/the) terrible shock!
The correct word to complete the sentence is "a." In this case, the speaker is referring to a shock in general, not a specific shock or the only shock. Therefore, the indefinite article "a" is appropriate.
6. What (-/a/the) tasty vegetables!
The correct word to complete the sentence is "tasty." No article is needed in this sentence. The speaker is referring to vegetables in general, not to specific vegetables or the only vegetables, so no article is necessary.
7. It is such (an/a/the) attractive town!
The correct word to complete the sentence is "an." The speaker is emphasizing the attractiveness of the town, but not referring to a specific town or the only town. Therefore, the indefinite article "an" is appropriate.
