Объяснение:
Это задание на употребление форм глагола to be в настоящем времени (см. вложение).
I am an economist. - Я являюсь экономистом.
You are a student. - Ты - студент.
В вопросах нужная форма (am/is/are) ставится ПЕРЕД подлежащим.
Are you thirsty? - Ты хочешь пить? (дословно: "Ты являешься испытывающим жажду?")
Отрицательные формы строятся путем добавления к глаголу to be частицы not:
My aunt is not twenty-nine.
Обратите внимание: is not = isn't
My aunt isn't twenty-nine. - Моей тёте не 29 лет.
