I haven't (got) a watch, (present possession)
How many corners has a (a characteristic rather than a habit)
cube?
He doesn't usually have time (habit)
to study.
In the past, did is used for habit; otherwise either form is possible:
Did you have/Had you an umbrella when you left the house?
In other English-speaking countries, however, the do forms are used almost exclusively. It would therefore be possible to use do/did forms throughout the following exercises (except in no. 27), but students are asked to use have not/have you forms where they could be used. Where both are equally usual this will be noted in the key.
Fill the spaces with the correct forms of have, adding got where possible. Only one space will be left in each clause, but note that got may be separated from have by another word. When a negative form is required '(negative)' will be placed at the end of the example.
