Yesterday, Jon Atkins went into Harpers' art gallery at the end of the afternoon. He wanted to buy a present for his mother. It was nearly closing time and the owner, Michael Harper, was counting the money. Quickly, Jon chose a small picture and Mr. Harper wrapped it for him.

While he was waiting for his bus, Jon decided to look at the picture again. In the parcel, he found £500 in cash as well as the picture. He ran back to the shop, but it was closed, so Jon looked through the window.

Michael Harper searched under the counter, and his assistants looked in all the cupboards and drawers. Jon knocked on the window and waved the money at them. "I was so happy," said Mr. Harper. "It's wonderful to know that there are honest people like Jon."

Now, let's focus on putting the verbs in brackets into the correct tense, either past simple or past continuous. Here is the step-by-step solution:

1. (go) - went: Jon Atkins went into Harpers' art gallery.
2. (want) - wanted: He wanted to buy a present for his mother.
3. (be) - was: It was nearly closing time.
4. (count) - was counting: Owner Michael Harper was counting the money.
5. (choose) - chose: Quickly, Jon chose a small picture.
6. (wrap) - wrapped: Mr. Harper wrapped it for him.
7. (wait) - was waiting: While he was waiting for his bus.
8. (decide) - decided: Jon decided to look at the picture again.
9. (find) - found: In the parcel, he found £500 in cash.
10. (run) - ran: He ran back to the shop.
11. (lool) - looked: Jon looked through the window.
12. (search) - was searching: Michael Harper was searching under the counter.
13. (look) - looked: His assistants looked in all the cupboards and drawers.
14. (knock) - knocked: Jon knocked on the window.
15. (wave) - waved: He waved the money at them.
