The meeting took almost five hours so it was impossible to pay attention all the time. 2 The problem is difficult to keep under control. 3 It took us all day to clean up the office after the burglary – the thieves made a terrible mess. 4 I don't think we should make a decision yet; we should wait. 5 Only 31% of the students who took the final exam passed it. 6 I think we should look for a new supplier – the one we have at the moment causes us too many problems. 7 Could you do me a favour and post these letters on your way home? 8 I've told him ten times that he's got the wrong telephone number. I'll go crazy if they call again. 9 The company offers its employees free language training but not many people take advantage of it. 10 Our personnel assistant is leaving next month - she's expecting a baby.

The meeting took almost five hours so it was impossible to (give, have, make, pay) attention all the time. 2 The problem is difficult to (hold, do, keep, make) under control. 3 It took us all day to clean up the office after the burglary – the thieves (did, took, made, had) a terrible mess. 4 I don't think we should (do, hold, make, create) a decision yet; we should wait. 5 Only 31% of the students who ( had, made, took, wrote) the final exam passed it. 6 I think we should look for a new supplier – the one we have at the moment (causes, does, makes) us too many problems. 7 Could you (make, do, give, get, bring) me a favour and post these letters on your way home? 8 I've told him ten times that he's got the wrong telephone number. I'll (be, go, get, crazy, become) if they call again. 9 The company offers its employees free language training but not many people (make, do , take , keep) advantage of it. 10 Our personnel assistant is leaving next month - she's (expecting, making, waiting, waiting for) a baby.
