1. A: Did you hear the thunder last night? B: No, I didn't. I didn't hear anything all night. I was asleep. 2. A: Listen! Do you hear a siren in the distance? B: No, I don't. I don't hear anything at all. 3. A: Did you build, you that bookshelf? B: No, I didn't. My uncle built it for me. 4. A: Is a fish slippery to hold? B: Yes, it is. It can slip right out of your hand. A: How about frogs? Are they slippery? B: Yes, they are. A: What about snakes? B: I don't know. I’ve never touched a snake. 5. A: I want to go to the mall this afternoon and look for a new bathing suit. Do you want to go with me? B: I can’t. I have an appointment with my English teacher. Besides, I bought a new bathing suit last year. I don't need a new 25 one this year. 6. I offer to help my older neighbor carry her groceries into her house every time I see her return from the store. She is always very grateful. Yesterday, she offered to pay me for helping her, but of course I didn't accept the offer. 7. Last Monday night, I took my sister and her husband to my favorite restaurant for dinner and found the doors locked. I didn't know it then, but my favorite restaurant is not open on Mondays. We don't want, not to eat anywhere else, so we went back to my house. I made a salad and heated some soup. Everyone seemed satisfied even though I am not a wonderful cook. 8. My daughter is twenty-one years old. She likes to travel. My wife and I worry about her a little when she is away from home, but we also trust her judgement. Last year, after she (raduated from the college, she went to Europe with two of her friends. They didn't travel by train or by car. Instead, they rented motor scooters and slowly rode through each country they visited. While she was away, my wife and I worried about her safety. We were very happy when we saw her smiling face at the airport and knew that she was finally was safe at home.
