Explanation:

Each sentence in English in the exercise has the Past Tense in them, by this reason you just must translate the sentences, however, you must know the right conjugation of the verbs used in the sentences, in this case, I'll show the conjugation of the verbs "pedir," "servir," "pagar," and "divertir" in Past Tense, depending on the personal pronoun used:

• Yo pedí, serví, pagué, me divertí.
• Tú pediste, serviste, pagaste, te divertiste.
• El/Ella/Ello pidió, sirvió, pagó, se divirtió.
• Nosotros pedimos, servimos, pagamos, nos divertimos.
• Ustedes/Ellos pidieron, sirvieron, pagaron, se divirtieron.

How you can see in the sentences, sometimes you can leave out the noun, this can be used when the conjugated verb just apply for a noun, then, to use that verb alone is equal to use it with its noun.
