Как рассуждать
- После What do you нужен глагол: What do you do at the weekend? Поэтому в пропуск 3 оно не подходит. После Can you describe идёт существительное: describe your typical weekend.
- Предлоги: on + день/тип дня (on Saturday, on Monday mornings, on a typical weekday); at + weekend / noon / night / midnight / время на часах; in + часть дня (in the morning / afternoon / evening). В этом учебнике — at the weekend.
- Устойчивые сочетания: take photos, look at pictures, post on a website, comment on photos, run a club, coach children.
