The 6 sample questions as a list
  1. „______ du, ob Frau Krüger schon aus dem Urlaub zurück ist?“ — „Nein, leider nicht.“

    A) Kennst
    B) Kannst
    C) Weißt
    D) Bist
    C) Weißt

    wissen is for knowing a fact, and it is the verb that introduces a clause like ob Frau Krüger schon aus dem Urlaub zurück ist: Weißt du, ob Frau Krüger schon aus dem Urlaub zurück ist? = Do you know if Ms Krüger is back from her holiday yet? kennen needs a direct object (a person, a place or a thing), so it cannot take this clause.
    Everyday verbs
  2. „Am Freitag besuche ich meine Tante in Kassel. Ich brauche noch eine ______ für den Zug.“

    A) Haltestelle
    B) Fahrkarte
    C) Eintrittskarte
    D) Rechnung
    B) Fahrkarte

    die Fahrkarte is a ticket for a train or bus: Ich brauche noch eine Fahrkarte für den Zug = I still need a ticket for the train. die Eintrittskarte is a ticket to a concert, a movie or a museum.
    Town & travel
  3. „Wir brauchen noch ______ Tisch für die Küche.“

    A) einem
    B) ein
    C) einen
    D) einer
    C) einen

    der Tisch is masculine and the direct object of brauchen, so it is accusative: einen Tisch = a table. In the accusative only the masculine article changes.
    Articles & cases

    A) um 8:30 Uhr
    B) um 7:15 Uhr
    C) um 8:15 Uhr
    D) um 7:30 Uhr

    halb acht means halfway to eight, so 7:30. English speakers often misread it as 8:30.

    A) kleinen
    B) kleiner
    C) kleine

    After eine, a feminine adjective ends in -e in the nominative and accusative: eine kleine Wohnung = a small apartment.
