Fill in the blanks.
1I ............... him that we had not paid the utility bill yet.
Wrong!
We remind someone to do something they might forget.
2I'm afraid I won't ............... his face.
Wrong!
Remember and remind have different meanings. To remind is to make someone remember.
3We use only the bedroom and the kitchen. ............... of the house is empty.
Wrong!
The rest means what is left. The article 'the' is always used in this expression.
4............... of the meal were lying all over the floor.
Wrong!
We can use the word remains to talk about what is left after something has been used up.
5You and Peter can take four chocolates each. The rest ............... mine.
Wrong!
When the rest refers to a plural noun, the verb is plural.
6Show me ............... again.
Wrong!
We normally use the article the before same.
7You have got ............... .
Wrong!
We use the same as before a noun or pronoun.
8That is the same man ............... asked me for directions yesterday.
Wrong!
Before a clause we can use the same ... that / the same ... who
9'Turn left, 'I ...............'
Wrong!
We use tell when there is an object. If there is no object, we use say.
10She ............... me that she would come.
Wrong!
We use tell when there is an object.
11We will ............... that problem tomorrow.
Wrong!
When see means think or consider, a preposition is necessary before the object.
12............... this color suits you.
Wrong!
See can be followed by if or whether. This expression has the same meaning as find out.
Done.
