5 My mother is (sleeping/washing the dishes). I can help her.

B 1 help 2 is cooking
3 sweeping the floor
4 playing, plays
5 washing the dishes

【解析】
1. 主语Mike and Helen是复数，一般现在时中主语为复数时谓语动词用原形，故填help。
2. 句中“seven o'clock in the morning”提示动作正在进行，用现在进行时（be+动词现在分词），故填is cooking。
3. 前半句为现在进行时，说明Liu Tao的动作也正在进行，现在进行时结构为be+动词现在分词，故填sweeping the floor。
4. like后接动名词，构成like doing sth.（喜欢做某事）的固定搭配，故第一空填playing；usually是一般现在时的标志词，主语He是第三人称单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，故第二空填plays。
5. 根据后半句“I can help her”可知，妈妈正在做可帮忙的家务，结合选项，故填washing the dishes。
【答案】
1. help
2. is cooking
3. sweeping the floor
4. playing; plays
5. washing the dishes
【知识点】
一般现在时用法、现在进行时用法、like固定搭配
【点评】
