Complete the sentences with the verbs in brackets. 1. When I was a student, I used to (work) in a restaurant called
Marmalade and Friends. It was in Brighton near the sea front.
2. When I worked there, I used to (go) to bed very late at night
and (get up) very early.
3. It is very difficult to get used to (work) nights. It's much
better and easier to work days.

5. She isn't used to (fly) on her own. She is always terrified .
6. I'm not used to (sit) in an office all day. I used to
(be) a gardener
To complete this sentence, we need to use the past simple form of the verb "work". The subject "I" is the person who used to work in the restaurant. So, the correct form of the verb is "worked". The sentence would then be:
"When I was a student, I used to work in a restaurant called Marmalade and Friends. It was in Brighton near the sea front."
2. When I worked there, I used to go to bed very late at night and get up very early.
In this sentence, we have two verbs that need to be completed. The first verb is "go", and the second verb is "get up". Again, we need to use the past simple form of these verbs since they refer to past actions. The sentence should be:
"When I worked there, I used to go to bed very late at night and get up very early."
3. It is very difficult to get used to working nights. It's much better and easier to work days.
This sentence requires the present simple form of the verb "work". The phrase "get used to" is a phrasal verb that means to become accustomed to something. So, in this case, we need to use the -ing form of the verb "work". The sentence should be:
"It is very difficult to get used to working nights. It's much better and easier to work days."
4. Are you getting used to living in your new flat yet?
In this question, we need to use the present continuous form of the verb "live". The phrase "getting used to" implies an ongoing action, so we use the present continuous form to indicate that it is happening now. The sentence should be:
"Are you getting used to living in your new flat yet?"
5. She isn't used to flying on her own. She is always terrified.
This sentence requires the -ing form of the verb "fly". The phrase "isn't used to" indicates that something is not familiar or normal for someone. The sentence should be:
"She isn't used to flying on her own. She is always terrified."
6. I'm not used to sitting in an office all day. I used to be a gardener.
In this sentence, we need to use the -ing form of the verb "sit". The phrase "not used to" indicates that something is not familiar or normal for someone. The second verb "used to be" refers to a past habit or state. The sentence should be:
"I'm not used to sitting in an office all day. I used to be a gardener."
