To Kameleon
It's wonderful a and b are correct
c "gave" is correct
Be careful please. Some verbs need the passive voice .
Do you believe that the newspapers "publish" themselves ?

To Bridg
Do you believe that my cyclist is masochistic ?

To Joy813
a,b and c are Ok. It's great
c "gave" ist correct
d "was throwing" Do you believe it's a long action ?
(my poor cyclist )

To Minouche15
Congratulation a,b and c are correct
c "gave" is correct
d Do you believe that the cyclist "threw" off his bike himself ?

To Morenita
I'm happy to read you again
c is correct
For d, why do you use the active voice ?

I hope that you understand. If you don't understand, ask me it please and I"ll try to explain you.
Thank you for your participation.
I wish you a nice day

Good evening

To Joy813
I'm sorry but I don't know this tense "was being throw" I'm not still so far with my evening lessons
That's why I ask to choose between the two presents and the two pasts.
But I'll ask to my teacher if this sentence is correct and I'll send you the response.

The correction is :
a) You can't go there now. Dr Johnson is talking to a patient.
b) She goes to work every day by train.
c) After last night's performance, Carol was feeling tired, so I gave
her a lift.
d) The cyclist was thrown off his bike when the lorry hit him from
behind.
e) Yesterday's air crash occurred while the air traffic controllers
were on strike.
g) Most newspapers are published every day.

Thank you very much

Should I answer d about the cyclist, or would rather I hold off until you get more responses? Clue: use the passive.
