Every morning Jack's wife will stand before the mirror, herself before leaving home.
— What did you think of Act I of the play last night?— I’m sorry. The play ________ when I got there.
—Will you attend the meeting this evening?—But I ________ told anything about it.
—Why weren’t you at the meeting?—I ________ for a long-distance call from my aunt in America.
—I’m sorry, but the boss isn’t here yet. Shall I have him call you when he comes back?—No, I’ll call him back. If I call again in half an hour, do you think she ________ ?
You’d better not phone the manager between 7 and 8 tomorrow evening; he ________ an important meeting then.
