Language focus
A Read the article. Find and correct five mistakes in the use of past time clauses. The first mistake has already been corrected.
driving
Yesterday,
a man was talking on his mobile phone while he was drive
his car. Maybe he checking his diary while he was making his next
appointment. He was certainly not concentrating on the road when the
lights suddenly was turning red. The two men in the street were
trying to jump out of the way when they saw him but it was too late.
No one was badly hurt but that was just luck. Last year, the City
Council weren't passing the 'talking and driving' law. We need that
law!
