Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 4
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The first statement reads, “my friends like sports”.

Step 2
2 of 4
As per the example, our response will begin with the appropriate form of “*gustar*”. At the beginning of the description of this question, there is a little note reminding you to review page 62 if you need a refresher on “*gustar*”. You will not change “*gustar*” from the form it appears in in the question, meaning our response will begin with *”les gustan*”.
Step 3
3 of 4
Since “my friends” like sports, we need to choose an activity that has to do with sports. The only logical choice is “to play tennis”. Precede this with the form of “*gustar*” from the last step and your sentence is complete.
Result
4 of 4
Les gustan jugar al tenis.
Exercise 2
Step 1
1 of 4
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The second statement reads, “I like television”.

Step 2
2 of 4
Since you shouldn’t change the form of *gustar* from the question to the response, our response will be begin with *me gusta*. Remember to review page 62 if you need a refresher on *”gustar*”.
Step 3
3 of 4
There are a few options in the box that could work to complete our sentence, but one is clearly the right choice: “to watch television”. If you like television, you necessarily like to watch television. Precede this activity with the correct form of “*gustar*” from the last step and you have your sentence.
Result
4 of 4
Me gusta ver televisión.
Exercise 3
Step 1
1 of 4
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The third statement reads, “Paco likes music”.

Step 2
2 of 4
Notice that the given statement is using *”le gusta”*, the “he/she/you (formal)” form of *gustar*. In your response, be sure to use the same form, since you will be saying “he likes…”.
Step 3
3 of 4
Since Paco likes music, the one option that should jump out at you is “to listen to music”. Precede this activity with the form of *gustar* from the previous step and you have your answer.
Result
4 of 4
Le gusta escuchar música.
Exercise 4
Step 1
1 of 5
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The fourth statement reads, “my family and I like pizza”.

Step 2
2 of 5
The subject of this sentence is “my family and I”, which can also be thought of as “we” (*”nosotros*”). The subject will not change in your response, so you will continue to use “*nos gusta”* in your response.
Step 3
3 of 5
Since pizza is a type of Italian food, we can factually say that the speaker and their family like eating Italian food, since they like pizza. Notice that *”italiana*” is not capitalized in Spanish.
Step 4
4 of 5
Now, simply put steps 2 and 3 together: “*nos gusta*” plus *”comer comida italiana”*.
Result
5 of 5
Nos gusta comer comida italiana.
Exercise 5
Step 1
1 of 4
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The fifth statement reads, “you like movies”.

Step 2
2 of 4
The subject of this statement is *tú*, hence why we are using *te gusta(n)*. Since the subject likes movies, it would make the most sense that they also enjoy going to the movie theater. The best answer is “*ir al cine*”.
Step 3
3 of 4
To construct our sentence, begin with “*te gusta*”. You learned on this page (86) that you always use the singular “*gusta*” with infinitives, and “*Ir*” is an infinitive. Follow this with our chosen activity (*ir al cine*), and you’ve completed the sentence!
Result
4 of 4
Te gusta ir al cine.
Exercise 6
Step 1
1 of 4
In this section, you are asked to say what each subject likes to do, based on the things they enjoy. Complete your response using one of the phrases in the box. The example reads, “Roberto likes movies. He likes going to the movies.”

The sixth and final statement reads, “my friends and I like video games”.

Step 2
2 of 4
The subject of this sentence is “my friends and I”, which from the speaker’s point of view could also be thought of as “we”. This is why the *nosotros* form *nos gustan* is being used. You will keep it in this form for your response, although you will use the singular *nos gusta* since it will be used before an infinitive.
Step 3
3 of 4
The subjects like video games, so it’s pretty obvious that they would like playing video games. You will add *jugar a los videojuegos* after *nos gusta* and that will complete your sentence.
Result
4 of 4
Nos gusta jugar a los videojuegos.
