For example:
I never liked computer games as a child. When I was at
school I hated (hate) computer lessons. Then one afternoon as I was sitting
(sit) in a café, reading a magazine I saw (see) a review for a computer game
called Sims. I started (start) to read the article and I thought (think) it seemed really interesting so I
decided (decide) to try it. I went (go) straight to a computer shop to buy the game.
The computer store was (be) really crowded, there were a lot of people walking
around and loud music was playing (play) in the background and I didn’t know (not know) where to
look. A shop assistant was tidying (tidy) some shelves at the front of the shop so I
asked (ask) her to help me. She was (be) really nice and very good-looking.
Unfortunately she didn’t find (not find) the game –
it’s an American game. I asked (ask) the shop assistant on a date and we’ve been
together ever since. I never got into (get into) the virtual world.
