Explanation: To clarify further, this exercise requires selecting the proper form of the verbs SER and ESTAR, which both mean "TO BE" in English. Many learners of Spanish struggle to distinguish these two verbs. Generally, ESTAR is used when describing a state resulting from a change, either actual or perceived, and to indicate location. For example, in sentence 5: "He is overwhelmed (he has become that way) by his studies," which is why ESTAR is used. Conversely, SER is applied for general descriptions or to identify someone, such as in sentence 11: "Julia, you are a good girl."

To start, it's crucial to note that Mexico's dialing code is 52, while the area code for Ciudad de México (Mexico City/CDMX, previously Mexico DF) is 55. Additionally, local phone numbers in Mexico City consist of 8 digits.
To make a call to Mexico City from abroad, follow these steps:
1. Start by dialing the international dialing code: 00
2. Next, dial Mexico's country code: 52.
3. Then, dial the area code for Mexico City: 55
4. Finally, enter the specific phone number you wish to reach.
For instance, it would look like this:
00 52 55 99 01 72 58
