Today we’ve studied (revised for some of my students) the verbs and their prepositions.
What I want you to do is to learn this grammar. The best way to remember something is to apply a new knowledge to the work (homework in our case.)
I wish you good luck, and attention while doing the exercises.
Insert the needed preposition to the blanks:
- I agree ____ Frankie.
- He introduces me ___ his friends.
- While we were talking about that crime, he suddenly turned ____.
- Anna is worried ____ a new hairdo.
- Chicken concentrate ___ insects when they cannot find grain.
- Kittens are fond ___ games.
- Children look _____ to holidays.
- We ran ___ of pie, so we ate chocolates.
- I decided to throw ___ the offer of going to the restaurant.

- You can get ____ with not knowing the phrasal verb if you pay close attention to the rest of the sentence.
- The new software is working ___ quite well.
- You should turn ____ this job offer.
- When I saw that chicken eat a bug, it almost brought ___ my breakfast.
- Don’t wake me ___!
Correct the mistakes in the following phrases:
The best way for you to practice even more is to try to understand the meaning of the phrases before correcting the mistakes!
