✔ 最佳答案
1. > He is not getting married(marry) until next year.
The correct answer should be 'getting married'.
Note:
- A is getting MARRIED next year.
- A is getting MARRIED with B next year.
- A and B will be getting MARRIED next year.
But:
- A is going to MARRY B next year.
- B is going to MARRY A next year.

2. > As soon as my son finish(finishes) Hihg School, I will buy him a car.
Why 'finishes'?

'FINISHES': for 3rd person singular (第三身單數)
- He / she / it finishes
'FINISH': for 1st & 2nd person(s); 3rd person plural (第三身眾數)
- I / we / you / they finish

'My son' = 3rd person singular = add 's' or, in this case 'es' = My son FINISHES .

3. > Jennifer will always loves(love) her family.
Why no 's' needed?
After modal verbs: INFINITIVE but WITHOUT 'TO'
(e.g. will/would, shall/should, can/could, may/might, must)

- Jennifer LOVES her family.
But:
- Jennifer WILL always LOVE her family.

- The cat BITES.
But:
- The cat CAN BITE.

- This IS enough.
But:
- This MUST BE enough.

4. > Joe work(works) late at the office almost every night.
Why 's'?
Same as 2: 3rd person singular = add 's'
