**Explanation for Students (на русском):**
14-е марта - это пятница. "Две недели назад" - это 29 февраля или 28 февраля (если год не високосный). "В прошлое воскресенье" - это 9 марта. "Вчера" - это 13 марта. "Неделю назад" - это 7 марта. "В прошлый вторник" - это 11 марта. "Три дня назад" - это 11 марта. Для каждого временного промежутка мы строим новое предложение.
