: → bird6978:"just then" means it happened in the past, a,d are w 11/21 09:53
: → bird6978:wrong,in addition, u cannot be hearing a noise 11/21 09:55
: → bird6978:so c is wrong 11/21 09:58
: → bird6978:Q2, b is wrong because of "It's 11" . it means you 11/21 09:59
: → bird6978:are at 11, it's present tense. u have to choose d 11/21 10:00
: → bird6978:Time bar: miss train->now present prefect tense 11/21 10:03
Thank you bird6978, but here I have another question
For Q2, is it ok if we say "we miss the train" (present tense)
or "we missed the train"
(past tense, saying the action that they missed the train before 11)
