- ---
- p. 44 part 1
- 1 learned
- 2 was
- 3 paid / had paid
- 4 had just passed
- 5 was
- 6 had gone by
- 7 hadn’t managed
- 8 were watching
- 9 wanted
- 10 paddled out
- 11 was setting
- 12 scrambled
- 13 didn’t fall off
- 14 had just gotten up
- 15 crashed
- 16 stayed
- paddle (like bad/sad/had/dad)

- You pedal a paddle boat.
- I got up when someone crashed into me. = First they crashed into me and then I got up.
- I was getting up when someone crashed into me. = I was in the middle of getting up when they crashed.
- I had gotten up when someone crashed into me. = First I got up and then they crashed into me.
- (The explanation sentences use singular “they”.)
- I ate dinner at 7:00. = I started dinner at 7.
- I was eating dinner at 7:00. = I was in the middle of dinner at 7.
- I had (already) eaten dinner at 7:00. = I finished dinner before 7.
- (I had been eating dinner at 7:00. = I started before 7 but was still in the middle at 7.)

- p. 160 practice 2
- 1 had used, reached
- 2 paid / had paid, bought
- 3 hadn’t arrived, woke
- 4 flooded, had melted
- 5 had forgotten, was
- 6 hadn’t reached, hit
- 7 sold, sailed / had sailed
- In general, if a sentence talks about two actions that happened in the past, the one that happened (and finished) first can be in the past perfect.
- I broke my leg when I fell off my bike. = First I fell and then I broke my leg immediately after.
- We would NOT use past perfect (“I broke my leg when I had fallen off my bike.”), because past perfect suggests more separation between the events.

- stream - fishing, swimming (in parts) (streams are typically shallow and fast-moving)
- ocean - all of them
- river - not surfing and probably not windsurfing
- waterfall - rafting, kayaking

- p. 41 - “interesting” (or more specific) words to use instead of “boring” words
