In this section, you are asked to fill in the blanks with the correct word from the box to complete the conversation. The first line of dialogue reads, “do you want ______ to the mall?”

Think back to your vocabulary from this chapter, and you should be able to cross some options off your list of words that can be used to complete this sentence. You can also look back to page 83 where you learned a phrase that has to do with the mall (*el centro comercial*).

You’ll see on page 83 that we use *ir* (which means “to go”) when we want to talking about going to the mall. This is also the only option of the given options that makes any logical sense.

In this section, you are asked to fill in the blanks with the correct word from the box to complete the conversation. The second line of dialogue reads, “no, I don’t want to. Do you want ________ videos?”

While there are a couple words that may work to fill in the blank, there is only one of the given six words that will work. If you look back to page 82, you’ll see that you’ve been taught the phrase “to rent videos”, and this is the only phrase involving the Spanish word “*videos”* that you’ve learned.

From page 82, you’ll see that *alquilar* means “to rent”. This is the only logically correct word to put in this blank.

In this section, you are asked to fill in the blanks with the correct word from the box to complete the conversation. The third line of dialogue reads, “no, I don’t want to. I want _________ exercise”.

Don’t be confused by the English translation of this sentence. In Spanish, we need an extra word to precede *ejercicio* to create the phrase “to exercise”. As you learned on page 82, this word is *hacer*. Together with *ejercicio*, this technically translates to “to do exercise”. However, we would just say “to exercise”.

In this section, you are asked to fill in the blanks with the correct word from the box to complete the conversation. The fourth line of dialogue reads, “do you want _______ basketball?”

On page 83, we learned that we use *jugar* when talking about playing something (a sport, a game, etc.). Since María is talking about basketball in her dialogue, we will use the option *jugar* to complete the sentence.

jugar

In this section, you are asked to fill in the blanks with the correct word from the box to complete the conversation. The fifth line of dialogue reads, “no, I don’t like basketball. Do you want _______ a bicycle?”

This final line of dialogue that is missing a word has to do with riding a bike. on pages 82 and 83, you learned the vocabulary that is needed to talk about riding a bike. You’ll see, on page 83, that some Spanish speakers in Mexico might say *”andar en bicicleta”*. However, *andar* is not one of our given words that can be used.

Since we’re not using *andar*, our only other option is *montar* (“to ride”), which we first learned on page 82.
