Assignment 1


Find alle verberne (udsagnsordene) i præteritum (datid) i nedenstående tekst, og omskriv dem til præsens (nutid). Skriv hele teksten som dit svar, og marker verberne tydeligt som i eksemplet.

Eksempel: They were quiet going to the car,…

They are quiet going to the car,…

They were quiet going to the car, calmly elegant like the old lady. Edgar noticed with some horror that Emma promptly opened the front door and sat down. Auntie Hadley just stood there, flaming. Edgar froze, with gloom and awkwardness. She knocked his hand away when he tried to help her in. They rode a piece in hard silence until Emma instructed him as to where she lived, sounding drunk. It was way out south of town on a tarry country road, Edgar found out slowly. When he finally got there and drove into the “park” it became clear she lived in a long redwood mobile home in a group of pines. There was a man sitting barefoot on wooden steps at the front door.

Barry Hannah, “Rat-Faced Auntie”, 2010

Strike now found himself presented with a stark choice. Telling her the truth about what he had been up to
 2 
would (1) necessitate an admission that he had not kept her abreast of any of the recent events that would
have been deemed enough news for a decade in most people’s lives (4). He would be forced to reveal
 4 
that the girl in the newspapers who had survived the Ripper’s latest attack was (2) his own business partner.

He would have to tell her that he had been warned off the case by a man (5) whom he had previously
 6 
humiliated over another high-profile murder (6). If he were making a clean breast of all that he had been up
to, he ought also to add that he now knew exactly who the killer was. The prospect of relating all this bored (3)
 8 
and oppressed him. He had not once thought to call her while any of these events had unfolded, which
was revealing enough in itself.

Robert Galbraith, Career of Evil, 2015
