Answer:

Holmes realized from the beginning that the Red-Headed League was simply too preposterous to be real and that it must therefore have been a ploy to get Wilson out of his shop for a few hours every day. The fact that Spaulding was willing to work for so little money and spent a lot of time alone in the basement suggested to Holmes that Spaulding was doing something illicit in the cellar. When he noticed the bank nearby, Holmes had suspected that Spaulding was digging a tunnel to the bank. Holmes pounded on the sidewalk outside Wilson’s shop to determine whether the ground was hollow underneath, and he knocked on the door for directions so that he could see whether the knees of Spaulding’s pants were worn away. The fact that the league dissolved so suddenly suggested to Holmes that the robbery was imminent, and he was therefore able to make preparations and capture John Clay.

Fill in the blanks with an appropriate form of a verb for the paragraph below: Astronauts on the International Space Station ___

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Astronauts on the International Space Station have a busy schedule. Every day they wake up at 7:00 GMT. From 7:00 to 8:00, they wash up and eat breakfast. At 8:00 in the morning, they call Ground Control in their countries. After they talk to Ground Control, their workday begins. The astronauts don't do the same thing every day. Their schedules change every week. The astronauts do not work all the time. Each day they exercise for an hour in the morning and an hour in the afternoon. After dinner, they have free time. Then, it is time to go to sleep. Sometimes this isn't easy because the sun rises and sets 16 times each day on the space station!

Explanation:

All the verbs in the text are written in the Present Simple tense, since the paragraph refers to actions that are either facts or happen regularly at the International Space Station. Thus, the astronauts at the station have a program of daily routine actitivies.
