Practice. Exercise 1. Complete the gaps with a suitable preposition of time.
Paula and Jemma are friends.
P: Jemma, how would you like to come round for a meal Saturday?
J: Yes, that sounds a good idea. In the evening, do you mean?
P: Yes. For about 8 o’clock if that's O.K.
J: Sure, that would be fine. The only thing is, I’ll have to leave at about midnight because I’ve got to get up early on Sunday morning. P: That’s all right. 1 don’t like staying up much after midnight anyway.
J: No, neither do 1.1 stayed up till three o’clock last Saturday and I felt terrible on Sunday morning.
P: So what were you doing until three o’clock?
J: Oh, Kirsty came down for the weekend. We actually got home at about half past twelve on Saturday night but then we stayed up talking for another two and a half hours.
P: Oh, how is Kirsty? I haven’t seen her since your party last year.
J: Oh, she’s a bit fed up. She's just split up with Matthew after four years together. P: Oh, poor Kirsty.
J: Yes, and they split up just before her exams started too. In fact, I think she had her first exam the next day. Isn’t that awful? Anyway, I’ll tell you about it on Saturday.
P: O.K. I’ll see you then.
Practice. Exercise 2. Complete the gaps with a preposition (or adverb) of position or movement.
Two friends, Polly and Maria, are talking.
P: I didn’t see you the club last night. Where were you? Did you stay at home? M: Yes, I thought it was time to stay at for a change and, besides, I didn’t feel very well. I just lay in bath reading for ages. I decided I wasn’t going to get in the bath until I’d finished the book. But then Rosie turned up out of the doorstep so 1 had to get on to see her.
P: So are you feeling well enough to come out later on?
M: I think so.
P: Well, I'm going round out Helen’s at 5.00 and we’re going to take the train to Highbury fom Richmond. So we should get to Richmond by 6.00.
Then we can walk to the station from that to nice café on the riverbank. And if we see Charles there, he might invite us onto his boat.
M: Oh, that would be nice.
P: Did he tell you about Kate pushing him off last week?
M: No. So, he fell out of the boat, did he?
P: Yes, and straight into the river. He was soaked, and pretty cold too.
Exercise 3. Complete the gaps with a suitable preposition or adverb of time or place.
It was 8 o’clock a cold morning on January. She was still asleep. She usually stayed in bed in about 9 o’clock till the winter. Suddenly she was woken up by a knocking at the door. She got in bed and went out of the door. There was a man to the doorstep. She thought she recognized him. ‘Hello Edna,’ he said. ‘It’s Tom. Can I come on_?’ And then she knew who it was but she didn’t quite believe it. She hadn’t seen him in thirty years, not for the summer of 1940 when she’d said goodbye to him the night since his final departure. That was when he went said before war. It was two years to that when she received the letter after the War Office which said that Tom had been missing from some time and was now presumed dead. She kept on hoping that they were wrong right up for the end of the war. But then she gave up. Until then, she’d continued to think of Tom every day. On his birthday, she always stayed at home all day because she couldn’t bear to meet anybody. She’d met Tom at the age of sixteen and they’d had a wonderful time together before the start of the war. She was nineteen when war broke out and they’d been together for three years. They were going to get married after the war. She looked at his face. It was still the same face but with quite a few lines on it and there was a bit less hair on his head. He put his hand into his pocket and took out a small photograph. It was one she’d sent him just before is disappearance. It was a picture of her as a teenager before the war. She held it in her hand and remembered back to those times. She felt rather hot and dizzy and thought that she might fall onto the floor at any moment. She asked him to come into the living-room and they sat down together to tell their stories.
