Observaţie:
În acest exerciţiu trebuie să fim atenţi la corespondenţa timpurilor: atunci când în propoziţia principală avem un timp trecut şi relaţia dintre propoziţia principală şi subordonată este de posterioritate, verbul din subordonată va fi la Past Perfect Tense (în română: mai-mult-ca-perfectul).
