Question

Look at these sentences.

1. “Too boring,” he said.

2. Cleaned his room, did his chores.

When we speak, we often leave out words that can easily be guessed. We do not do this when we write unless we are trying to write as we speak (as in the story).

So, if we were to write carefully, we would say:

• “Homework is too boring,” he said.
• He cleaned his room and did his chores.

Answer 1

Do it yourself.
