2. 'Was Katie at school last week?' 'No, she wasn't. She was sick.' (Речь об одном человеке в прошлом, поэтому используем "was". Отрицательный ответ требует "wasn't".)

3. 'These flowers are beautiful. Were they expensive?' 'No, they weren't!' (Цветы - множественное число, поэтому используем "were". Отрицательный ответ требует "weren't".)

4. Were James and Charlotte at the florist's? Yes, they were. (Джеймс и Шарлотта - двое, множественное число, поэтому используем "were".)

5. That's a pretty dress. Was it in the sale? Yes, it was. (Речь об одном платье, поэтому используем "was".)

6. Was there a toy shop in that shopping centre? No, there wasn't. (Речь об одном магазине, поэтому используем "was". Отрицательный ответ требует "wasn't".)

7. Where were you yesterday, Sam? I was at the zoo with my mum. (К "you" всегда используется "were", а к "I" - "was".)

8. We were at home last night. We were at the cinema with friends. ("We" - множественное число, поэтому используем "were".)
