Answer 2

Ваш вопрос связан с использованием условного наклонения в английском языке, особенно с использованием фраз "I wish" (я хотел бы) и "if only" (если бы только). Вот правильные варианты для каждого предложения:

1. The Browns live in the city, but they wish they were (live) in the suburbs. 2. I wish she had come (come) yesterday. 3. I wish I knew (to know) Sue’s telephone number. 4. I wish it had not rained (not to rain) so much in England last week. 5. If I knew (know) her address, I’d write a letter to her. 6. If he had worked (not/make) slowly, he would not have made (not/make) so many mistakes. 7. If I were (be) you, I would (be) look for another job.

Пожалуйста, обратите внимание, что во всех этих предложениях мы используем прошедшее простое время (was, had come, knew, had not rained, knew, had worked, would not have made, were), чтобы выразить желание или предположение о прошлом.
