Question 1 of 1
1. Question
Read the following text and fill in the blanks with the correct past tense verb.
- Oh yes, I remember when I (had) (have) an absolute disaster at the airport. I (was) (be) in a hurry because my flight (left) (leave) in one hour, but I (was) (be) still at home packing my suitcase. I finally (finished) (finish) and (drove) (drive) super fast to the airport. The only problem? A cop (stopped) (stop) me and (wrote) (write) me a ticket. I (missed) (miss) my plane, and instead of going to the Bahamas, I (paid) (pay) a nice $300 fine and (stayed) (stay) in snowy New York. I (looked) (look) at the weather forecast just now and (saw) (see) 30 degrees and sunny in the Bahamas. In a nutshell, it was all my fault. Next time I know to be more organized! And to make matters worse, I (could) (can) not even get a refund, so I (lost) (lose) thousands of dollars.
