1. The problem is to choose the correct verb form in present simple tense for given sentences.
2. The rule for present simple tense:
- For he, she, it (3rd person singular), add **-s** or **-es** to the base verb.
- Use **-es** if the verb ends in -ch, -sh, -x, -s, or -z.
- For verbs ending in consonant + y, change y to i and add **-es**.
3. Applying the rules:
- My parents speak / speaks English very well. Since "parents" is plural, use base verb: **speak**.
- He tidy up / tidies up his bedroom every day. For he, change tidy to **tidies**.
- My dad and I enjoy / enjoys cooking. "My dad and I" is plural, so use base verb: **enjoy**.
