Hello,
Je suppose que vous devez reformuler les phrases ainsi par exemple:
1)Sally and Althea exchanged glances.
Sally and Althea looked at each other.
A vous d'imaginer quels mots choisir si vous n'avez pas d'autres indications.
Merci de proposer votre travail,nous ne le ferons pas pour vous.
Regards.

5) Both Cary and George....
Vous êtes sur la bonne voie.

The order "had she" turns it into a question. Try starting with a question word.8)She stepped back so that she would be behind the door.
She stepped back and so be behind the door. no this doesn't work. Try again.
9)Why did she tell this woman she was going out?
She shouldn't talk this woman she was going out. no - try something with the past tense of tell. use the Past anterior I think.
10)How quiet life was in those days!
It was other quiet life in those days! No - this doesn't work.

Bonjour.
7)She pronounced the words but regretted it immediately..
.........had she pronounced the words..... she regretted it.
Pour compléter cette phrase vous pouvez utiliser l'une des deux structures:
No sooner ... than
ou
Hardly ... when
Ne pas oublier de faire l'inversion sujet-verbe après no sooner et hardly
No sooner et hardly sont considérés comme des termes négatifs.
No sooner had I closed the door than somebody knocked.
Vous pouvez aussi écrire,
Hardly had I closed the door when somebody knocked.
Toutefois dans un niveau de langue moins littéraire vous pouvez écrire
I had no sooner closed the door than somebody knocked.
I had hardly closed the door when somebody knocked.
(pas d'inversion cette fois-ci)

Good evening
Well I see everyone is slowly getting there....what a great exercise!!
N° 9: If I were you ......... (and I'm not! may I make a suggestion
as this sentence is in the past tense. So, maybe you could say:
"She shouldn't + auxiliary + past participle that she was going ...."
