Answer :

In this conversation, we are dealing with correct grammatical choices for typical spoken English phrases. Let's look at each situation one by one to choose the correct option.

For the first conversation:

A: "I don't feel well. Should I go to work?"

The response needs to be grammatically correct and appropriate for advising someone to rest instead of working while they feel unwell.

  • a. No, you should have rest.
  • b. No, you should rested.
  • c. No, you should rest.
  • d. No, you shouldn't resting.

The most appropriate option here is c. No, you should rest.

Explanation:

  • "Should" is followed by the base form of the verb 'rest'.
  • Option (a) uses "have" incorrectly in this context.
  • Option (b) incorrectly uses the past tense "rested".
  • Option (d) uses "resting" incorrectly because it follows the word "shouldn't."

For the second conversation:

A: "I have an important exam tomorrow."

The response should advise against an action that could prevent adequate preparation or rest before the exam.

  • a. You shouldn't stayed up late.
  • b. You shouldn't stay up late.
  • c. You shouldn't going out tonight.
  • d. You shouldn't studied too much.

The correct choice here is b. You shouldn't stay up late.

Explanation:

  • This choice uses the correct structure with "shouldn't" followed by the base form of the verb 'stay'.
  • Option (a) incorrectly uses "stayed", which should not follow "shouldn't."
  • Option (c) uses "going" in a way that doesn't match the context of staying up late.
  • Option (d) is grammatically incorrect and impractical advice.
