4 GRAMMAR Prepositions + gerunds
Make one sentence using the words in brackets and a gerund
1 The kids left. They said they all wanted to work in day. (on)
Ответ:
The sentence using the word in bracket and a gerund is:
On leaving, the kids said they all wanted to work in the day.
Explanation:
* A gerund is a verb form ending in "-ing" that functions as a noun.
* The preposition 'on' is used with the gerund 'leaving' to connect the action of leaving to the kids' statement about wanting to work.
* The complete sentence combines the two original sentences using 'on leaving' to indicate when the kids made their statement.
