Answer 2

To correct the mistakes in the given sentences:

1. I came back from a trip to Arizona two weeks ago. 2. I saw Sue in town yesterday, but she didn't see me.

Let's break down the corrections:

1. "I was coming back from a trip to Arizona two weeks ago" should be corrected to "I came back from a trip to Arizona two weeks ago." The verb "came" is the correct past tense form of "come." The continuous form "was coming" suggests an ongoing action, which is not necessary in this context.

2. "I saw Sue in town yesterday but she wasn't see me" should be corrected to "I saw Sue in town yesterday, but she didn't see me." The verb "see" should be in the past tense, "saw," to match the tense of the sentence. Additionally, we need to use the negative form of the verb "see," which is "didn't see," to indicate that Sue didn't see the speaker.

With these corrections, the sentences would read:

1. I came back from a trip to Arizona two weeks ago. 2. I saw Sue in town yesterday, but she didn't see me.
