None of those sentences is true. See explanation.

Explanation:

#A# Add -ed to irregular base forms to form the Past Participle

This statement would be true if you changed irregular to regular.

The Past Simple and Past Participle forms of regular verbs are created by adding -ed suffix (exampple play - played - played).

#B# When the subject of a sentence is singular, add –s to the base form.

This statement is only true if:

  • the sentence is in Present Simple tense

  • the subject is in third person singular (either expressed with a pronoun he, she, it, or a proper noun: Peter, Ann etc)

#C# Add to to the base form to create an adjective.

This is false. Adding to to the base form turns a verb to an infinitive not an adjective.

#D# Do not use a base form with plural subjects.

This is also false. If the subject is plural then the verb must be in its base form (in Present Simple tense).

Examples:

We go to the cinema once a month.

Peter and Ann live on the second floor.
