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 markér verberne tydeligt som i eksemplet
| Eksempel: | He enjoyed getting up in the morning… He enjoys getting up in the morning… |
He enjoyed getting up in the morning and kept a woodpecker clock by the bed, a Swiss contraption that shocked him out of sleep at 5 a.m. He had leather carpet slippers ready on the floor, which he wore for the journey to the bathroom, a gleaming place where everything waited in good order, foreign soaps, tooth powder, his shaving things and a bottle of cologne. Every small element of life fascinated him and he wanted to get it right. […]
Once a swallow’s nest fell from the eaves of the house. My father gathered us together in the front room. He made us sit quietly by the window, watching the unfolding drama, seeing if the chicks inside the nest would be rescued or abandoned or stolen. In the end it was all too much for him. He brought the nest inside and taught me how to feed the chicks with a dropper. Two of them died, but one survived, and he put everything into the life of that bird. He took a pencil and pointed to the bulging purple skin that seemed to cover the bird's eyes and he showed me the place where its heart was beating.

You work in an open plan office that starts to smell like microwave food by midday. Sometimes you’re met
with a delightful aromatic curry, other times, pure bile. And then a waft of sunshine, meadows and spices

comes through.
It is a colleague that you don’t normally talk to but he smells like a Greek god and you hesitate to tell
him. What if he thinks you’re being too forward? What if the office judges you? After all, no one wants to

be thought of as inappropriate, in front of an office full of prying eyes and ears (even if they actually don’t
give a sh*t). Essentially, telling someone they smell good is not weird or creepy – who doesn’t want to
know they have a pleasant fragrance?
