WEEK II correction-questions

1)Why mustn't you choose the option IN in ex.3 nr.3 pag.2 (Articles, Quantifiers, Pronouns)

Do you prefer sitting – the back of the cinema or    the front.

 

 "Sit in the back of the bus or At the back of the bus? I would use at the back of a bus.

The reason for this as I know, if you are not sitting on a specific place, you need to use "at".

You often sit on/in a chair. But sit at the table. (somewhere near the table)

But, at the same time, if you are mentioning about a bike (or a car which does not have more back seats than one)sit on the back/in the back seat.

 

2)Is my answer wrong in ex. 6 nr.1 pag. 2? (Reported Speech)

Yes, it is wrong from the point of view of word order (vedi risposta alla tua domanda nr. 4 è lo stesso errore) 

1Shall I put these pictures in the bin or shall I save Alison them? Them for Alison

Devi risparmiare I quadri per Alison, non devi risparmiare Alison

 

3) Could you also use the option "before" in the ex. 2 nr. 1 pag. 1?(Reported Speech)

No non puoi usare before

I had fallen asleep by the time the film finished = Mi ero addormentato al termine del film

Se metti before cambia il significato: Mi ero addormentato prima che il film finisse

 

4)Why is my answer wrong in ex. 6  nr.4 pag. 2? (Reported Speech)

Because the direct object always comes before any indirect object vedi domanda 2
