Grammar review
Before you choose, decide what the sentence means: is it possible, allowed or a skill, or not? The reason nearby tells you whether you need can or can't. Then check the verb. After can it never changes: she can swim, not she can swims or can to swim. In questions, don't add do: Can you swim?
