​

My aunt was very depressed last Sunday. The weather was terrible. It was cold and rainy. Her husband was not at home. He was at hospital because he was sick. Her children were not at school. They were not in the yard, they were in the living room. The TV was broken. The children were not only upset, they were very angry. The neighbours were not happy because her children were too noisy.

The house was not clean. The sink was broken. There were dirty dishes on the kitchen table and in the sink. There was nothing in the fridge. There were no vegetables for dinner, there was no juice for her children. There was not even bread in the house! She was tired and hungry. She was just exhausted.

Примечание по поводу глагола to be в Past Simple:

Здесь выбор формы глагола зависит от числа, в котором употреблено действующее лицо (в единственном числе ставится was, во множественном - were). Если говорить о местоимениях, схема выбора выглядит следующим образом:

1) Having read a lot of books on this question, he was able to make a very interesting report.

2) Entering the room he saw several friends waiting for him.

3) Having worked at the report the whole day, he left very tired.
