Task: Put the words in the correct order. Remember to start each sentence with a capital letter and finish with full stops (.) or question marks (?). Click 'check' after you complete all the seven blanks. If you've made a mistake but you're sure that the sentence is correct, just put the adverb of time (yesterday, last year, now, etc.) at the end of the sentence (although using them at the beginning is not a mistake!).
