Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Everybody _____ drive a car in my family.
A. was
B. can
C. is
D. Are

Answer 1

Hint:An auxiliary verb is a verb in which the clause in which it occurs adds functional or grammatical meaning in order to express tense, aspect, modality, voice, focus, etc. Usually, auxiliary verbs are preceded by an infinitive verb or a participle that provides the key semantic substance of the clause.

Complete answer:
CAN means 'capable of' being.
In the speaker’s family, everyone is able to drive a car.
Thus, the correct answer is Can
The remaining choices are wrong since they are the different forms of the verb and do not convey the desire to move.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘B’

Note: Before approach to this kind of question we should understand the Progressive and Perfect Aspects-
Using the Progressive Aspect
When the main verb in a sentence ends in -ing, the progressive aspect is often being used. This aspect is used to convey the notion that an action is occurring in an ongoing fashion.
The forms of the helping verb to be (am, is, are, was, and were) are used to create this aspect:
Example-I am renting my guest house to my neighbour.

Using Perfect Aspects
There are three different forms of the perfect aspect in English: past perfect, present perfect, and future perfect. The perfect aspect is used to explain an action that is/was/will be in a state of progress and is/was/will be completed before a particular time. The perfect aspect can also be used in the continuous form to show actions that are ongoing.

Forms of the verb to have and to do are often used to create the various perfect aspects.
The perfect aspect is subdivided into:
past perfect
present perfect
future perfect

The following sentences demonstrate how helping verbs are used to create these aspects:
She had stolen the car already by then. (past perfect)
I had been dreaming about you when you called. (past perfect continuous)
What will we do now that Barbara is gone? (future perfect)
