Question

The question presents a sentence with a blank after 'Mrs. Martinez' and asks us to choose the correct word to complete the sentence: 'Mrs. Martinez _______ us almost every single day to drink water and to stay hydrated!'
Option 1: 'reminding' — This is the -ing form of the verb, typically used in participial phrases like 'Mrs. Martinez, reminding us, ...' or in 'is reminding'. It does not fit the simple present tense structure required by the sentence without additional words, so it is not correct here.
Option 2: 'don't remind' — This is a negative contraction and would yield 'Mrs. Martinez don't remind us', which is ungrammatical because the subject 'Mrs. Martinez' is singular and should take 'doesn't' or the verb form 'reminds'. Therefore this option is incorrect.
Option 3: 'remind' — This is the base form of the verb. In standard English, after a singular subject like 'Mrs. Martinez', the verb should be 'reminds' in the simple present, not the base form. Hence this option does not fit the grammatical requirement of the sentence.
Option 4: 'always remind' — This phrase would create a construction like 'Mrs. Martinez always remind us', which is incorrect because the subject-verb agreement is off; with 'Mrs. Martinez' the correct simple present form is 'reminds'. Also the adverb 'always' would require a different verb form or structure (e.g., 'Mrs. Martinez always reminds us'), which is not how this option is presented.
Option 5: 'reminds' — This is the correct third-person singular present tense form of 'remind' to agree with the singular subject 'Mrs. Martinez'. The sentence becomes grammatically correct: 'Mrs. Martinez reminds us almost every single day to drink water and to stay hydrated!' This aligns with standard subject-verb agreement rules and conveys the intended meaning clearly.
In summary, the other options fail due to incorrect tense, agreement, or form, while 'reminds' satisfies both grammatical structure and the intended meaning of the sentence.
