Read the boy's excuse story. Six verb forms are incorrect. Replace Past Simple form with Past Continuous where necessary. "I left my home when my friend Wendy called me. She asked me to come to her place because she was in trouble. I didn't ask any questions and hurried to her house. While I ran, I met Kate and Jason. They crossed the street. I told them about Wendy and they decided to join me.
When we got to Wendy's place, we rang the doorbell and she opened the door. She cried. Wendy pointed at the tree near the road and we saw a cat. It was Wendy's cat Mars. He couldn't climb down and meowed loudly. I knew what to do. I was very good at PE so it wasn't a problem for me to climb the tree. A few minutes later, happy Wendy held and kissed her dear cat. That's why I'm late, Miss Morgan."
