correct only those verbs that are in the wrong tense. Holiday Diary: Monday We arrived in the middle of a thunderstorm at one in

the morning. I took the tent out of the car and tried to pitch it, only to then realised that we have forgotten the pegs. The kids' faces stared at me through the car's streaked windows as the dogs sat beside them. Three-quarters of an hour later I finally managed to wake the site's shop owner, bought some spare pegs and got us all under canvas. The forecast, typically, was for rain all week. Good old summer!

Answer:

  • -realised
  • -have forgotten
  • -bought
  • -got

Explanation:

  • Realised needs to be changed from the past tense to the present tense so that it is realise. In this case, the verb is part of a prepositional phrase and is being used to talk about  moment within a story set in the past.
  • Have forgotten needs to be changed to had forgotten since it is a past action that happened before another action in the past.
  • Bought and got need to be changed to buy and get so that the sentence is parallel. These words are part of a series of actions that starts with the wake.
