1. I haven’t finished my project yet. Can you help me?
Explanation: The word "already" is not needed in this sentence because it suggests that the action of finishing the project has already taken place before now. However, the word "yet" is appropriate to indicate that the action has not happened up until now.

2. I’ve never read anything by Michael Morpurgo. Is he a good writer?
Explanation: The word "ever" should be replaced with "never" to indicate that the action of reading anything by Michael Morpurgo has not happened at any point in the past.

3. We’ve already bought some fruit so you don’t need to get any more.
Explanation: The sentence is correct as it is. The word "already" is used correctly to indicate that the action of buying fruit has already been completed.

4. Did they take a taxi to the airport? They haven’t got much time.
Explanation: The word "taken" should be replaced with "take" to form a grammatically correct sentence in the past simple tense. Additionally, the word "haven't" should be replaced with "don't" to indicate a general lack of time, rather than a specific lack of time in the past.

5. Mum has just gone to the bank. She’ll be back soon.
Explanation: The word "went" should be replaced with "gone" to form a grammatically correct sentence in the present perfect tense. The word "just" is correctly used to indicate that the action of going to the bank happened a very short time ago.
