Exercise 1
Step 1
1 of 2
In this section, you are being asked to replace the italicized part of the given text with text that applies to you. Since these answers are subjective, here you will be provided with a few tips on how to answer these correctly.

The first sentence you are given reads, “every day I like *to go to the park*.

Step 2
2 of 2
This should be pretty straightforward. Think of something you like to do every day, and make sure you know the infinitive form of the activity. Some things you might do every day are play an instrument (*tocar …..*), rest (*descansar*) or study (*estudiar*). Notice that, in the example, *ir* is the infinitive that follows *me gusta*.

Step 2
2 of 2
Here, *trabajar* is your infinitive, and the word you need to replace to fit yourself. What things do you dislike doing on Fridays? Studying (*estudiar*), doing homework (*hacer la tarea*)? Choose something that is true for YOU!

The third sentence you are given reads, “On the weekends I like *to go out with friends*.

Step 2
2 of 2
Here, your infinitive following *gustar* is “*salir*” (“to go out”). Your task is to find another infinitive that you enjoy doing on the weekends. Don’t change anything about the sentence apart from replacing the italicized bit. For example, if you’re an athlete, perhaps you’d replace the italicized bit with *jugar al tenis* or another sport that strikes your fancy.

For example, you might say “*los domingos quiero jugar a los videojuegos*”.
