Answer

В 3a нужно не только выбрать год, но и правильно употребить born или died. В пунктах 2, 4, 6 и 8 стоит died — «умер/умерла», поэтому там нужен год смерти.

1. Dante Alighieri was born in 1265.

2. Agatha Christie died in 1976.

3. Christopher Columbus was born in 1451.

4. Galileo Galilei died in 1642.

5. Alfred Hitchcock was born in 1899.

6. Catherine the Great died in 1796.

7. William Shakespeare was born in 1564.

8. Emmeline Pankhurst died in 1928.

Как рассуждать:

Смотри на слово после имени: born → was born in …, died → died in ….

was born — конструкция «родился/родилась». died — обычный Past Simple, без was: нельзя писать was died.

Все герои здесь в единственном числе, поэтому was born. Для нескольких человек было бы were born.

Проверка: в №1, 3, 5, 7 указаны годы рождения, а в №2, 4, 6, 8 — годы смерти. Именно эти годы и даны среди вариантов.
