Упражнение 2
Матч начался по телевизору в 7 часов, поэтому папа еще смотрел телевизор в 07.30. Мама сидела на кухне. Она спокойно читала женский журнал. Рози примеряла мамину одежду в своей комнате. Двоюродные братья Ника слушали рок - музыку. Она играла очень громко, поэтому они не слышали грохота. В 07.30 собаки лежали возле камина (огня) и спали. Ник с другом пошел в сад играть в футбол. Поэтому в 07.30 он еще был там.

на кухне. Она тихонько читала женский журнал. Рози примеряла ее
Мамина одежда в ее комнате. Двоюродные братья Ника слушали рок-музыку. Это было очень громко, так что
они не слышали грохота. В 7.30 собаки лежали перед огнем и спали. Ник пошел в сад со своим другом поиграть в футбол. Итак, в 7.30 он все еще был
там.
