'Should' is a modal verb so it is followed by infinitive.

Explanation: The gerund ( verb+ing) is used • After certain verbs: He loves dancing • After prepositions: I am interested in participating in a seminar • As the subject or object of a sentence: Smoking is bad for your health

There are a lot of meals that are easy to cook- that is the subject of the sentence 'are easy to cook'. We don't need another subject.

In English, most sentences have a subject. You cannot omit it.

1. We use another the first time we refer to something singular 2. We use the other in subsequent references for singular or plural things and for unique things 3. We use other as the plural form of another and for uncountable nouns.

Indirect questions are used when talking to a person and their form is different. In indirect questions, we don’t use the auxiliary verbs do/does/did and it becomes a statement.

'A cook' is the profession whereas ' a cooker' is a utensil or an applianace to cook.

Explanation: The verb prefer can be followed by: •the infinitive with 'to' ( this is normal after would prefer) I prefer to go to the cinema I would prefer to stay in a hotel •the -ing form, when we prefer one activity to another I prefer swimming to running

We don't use the article because we are talking about 'something' in general.

'enough' is placed after the adjective and before a noun.

The verb is 'to agree', not 'to be agree'

'Fast food' is the subject of the sentence. Sentences only have one subject. 'It' is not necessary.

The compounds of 'some', 'any', 'no' and 'every' take a singular verb

•Arrive at a building , station, airport •Arrive in a country, city. etc

'in the end' is similar to 'eventually' or 'finally', and 'at the end' indicates place, like 'at the end of the road'.

'for to+ infinitive OR 'for communicat' is not possible; use 'to+infinitive' to indicate purpose.

In English, most sentences have a subject. You cannot omit it.

'The noun people' is plural, so the verb is 'are'.

Use 'gerund' as the subject of a sentence.

When you want to specify the lenght of the time from the past until now, you use 'for', not 'since ago'.
