This year I (get) (5)  [input answers="got"/]  food poisoning the day I (arrive) (6)  [input answers="arrived"/] . It (modal verb + be) (7)  [input answers="must have been"/]  the fish I (eat) (8)  [input answers="ate"/]  at the hotel that evening. In the morning I felt terrible, and I (see) (9)  [input answers="was seen"/]  by two doctors. I tried to explain my problems to them, but neither of them spoke English. It (take) (10)  [input answers="took"/]  me most of the first week (recover) (11)  [input answers="to recover"/] , and I (spend) (12)  [input answers="spent"/]  three or four days (sit) (13)  [input answers="sitting"/]  next to the hotel swimming pool (read) (14)  [input answers="reading"/]  newspapers.

2.    I was reading an article last week in which the writer described how her children (change) (21)  [input answers="had changed"/]  as they (grow) (22)  [input answers="grew"/]  up. When they were small she (modal verb + put) (23)  [input answers="had to put"/]  up with their noisy games in the house which (wear) (24)  [input answers="wore"/]  her out. If the house (go) (25)  [input answers="went"/]  quiet, she (wonder) (26)  [input answers="wondered"/]  what the monsters (get) (27)  [input answers="were getting"/]  up to, or what crisis she (modal verb + deal) (28)  [input answers="would have to deal"/]  with next. She dreaded the fact that they (modal verb + take) (29)  [input answers="might take"/]  after her husband, who admitted (be) (30)  [input answers="having been"/]  an uncontrollable child!
However, she (experience) (31)  [input answers="had experienced"/]  an even greater shock with her children. They (grow) (32)  [input answers="had grown"/]  out of all their naughty behaviour, and (take) (33)  [input answers="had taken"/]  up serious hobbies such as chess and playing the piano. They never (do) (34)  [input answers="did"/]  anything without (think) (35)  [input answers="thinking"/]  it over first and (come) (36)  [input answers="coming"/]  to a serious decision. She (modal verb + face) (37)  [input answers="had to face"/]  up to that fact that they (make) (38)  [input answers="made"/]  her (feel) (39)  [input answers="feel"/]  rather childish, and that in some ways she (prefer) (40)  [input answers="preferred"/]  them young and noisy!
