1) By Christmas we settled in a new place and met almost all the neighbors. Only my sister has not arrived yet, but her room was already ready. 2) She tried not to remind him of what he told her. 3) When Anthony and Kate entered the hall, there were already twenty people gathered there. 4) He barely had time to start his story when he was interrupted by a phone call. 5) They returned to their hometown, where they lived with their parents in childhood. 6) It was only half an hour since the last guest left. 7) Mary did not pass two blocks when he caught up with her. 8) When Margie entered the room, she saw that all the things were standing where she had left them. 9) I did not know when she left. I did not know why she left. 10) I did not remember this man and did not think that I had met him before. 11) Hardly the transmission ended, as the TV went out of order. 12) He thought ... no, he was sure that he had been here before. 13) He did not have time to go ten steps before he returned, because he forgot his briefcase. 14) As soon as we packed all the things, a taxi arrived and we went to the station. 15) He has not changed much since Gerald saw him for the last time. But now there was a new, cruel expression on his face that had not been there before.
