Marisol is an exchange student from Ecuador living in the United States. In an e-mail to her best friend, she writes about her d
aily routine and the routine of her roommate (compañera de cuarto), Jennifer. Complete Marisol's message by writing the reflexive verb that corresponds to each picture.
Tricky, because I can't see the "picture" that the question is asking about. But I think I know what it's talking about. Let's translate the sentence, with the blank: "Mi compañera de cuarto, Jennifer, _________ más tarde que yo." It means, "My roommate, Jennifer, ________ later than me." So, let's fill it in with the word for "get up." "Levantarse" means "to get up." But we have to conjugate it into the third person, singular form. And that would be "se levanta," which is a reflexive verb. Now, we have "Mi compañera de cuarto, Jennifer,se levanta más tarde que yo." It means, "My roommate, Jennifer, gets up earlier than me." If you have any questions about how we conjugated "levantarse," please ask.
Since Mrs. Dombey reacts with surprise to her husband simply calling her "my dear," we can infer that Mr. Dombey is usually formal and distant to his wife.
