            Please help.



            http://www.orlesson.org/orp/09En/P5-English-SA2-NanHua.pdf


            Section G: Grammar Cloze


            We stopped (33) ___ our tracks and turned around.



            I had always prided myself (38) ____ being the teachers' pet.


            My answers are:

            33) on (M)
            38) for (G)


            Worksheet answers are:

            33) in (K)
            38) on (B)


            Please advise which are correct.

            TIA.

            Worksheet answers are correct.

            Its is always \"in your tracks\" and \"I pride myself on being something\"

            Hmmm i don't know about this question but i have a strong feeling that it is lived.Because they say before and that is past tense....So,ya

              I think both are perfectly acceptable. I like your DD's answer for its brevity.

                      Thank you !!
                      It should be

                      a) All the shops close at ten at night except the restaurant .
                      a) The fish caught by the fishermen are edible except this grey fish .

                      After the transformation of the sentence, we should still be referring the subjects/objects in the same manner as the original.
