Answer 1

Certainly! It looks like you have a series of incomplete dialogues that require filling in the blanks with the correct form of "used to" and the verbs in parentheses. Let's complete them:

1. A: Did you watch a lot of cartoons when you were a child? B: No, I did not watch much television. I used to play outside with my friends when I could.

2. A: My brother has got a new job in a shop. B: Really? What does he do? A: He used to work in a factory, but he did not like it very much.

3. A: Where did he used to work? B: He used to work in a factory, but he did not like it very much.

4. A: Did you and your family spend the summer holidays? B: No, we did not have a family holiday because my parents were working. But my brother and I used to stay with my grandparents in the country.

5. Mark: Where did you go? Response: I used to go...

Please note that "used to" is used to talk about past habits or situations that are no longer true. I have filled in the blanks based on this understanding. If you have specific questions about any part of the completion, feel free to ask!
