Question

Complete the sentences with the correct form of the verbs in brackets. We ___ (lie) in the Greek sun right now if we __ (not miss) the flight! Don’t complain. We ___ (not be) in such a hurry now if you ____ (not oversleep)!

Answer 1

We would be lying in the Greek sun right now if we hadn't missed the flight!

Don’t complain. We wouldn't be in such a hurry now if you hadn't overslept!

Answer 2

To complete the sentences with the correct form of the verbs in brackets, we need to determine the appropriate verb tenses and conjugations. Let's go through each sentence one by one:

1. We ___ (lie) in the Greek sun right now if we ___ (not miss) the flight!

Here, we need to use the correct form of the verb "lie" and "miss". The first verb "lie" should be in the present continuous tense, which is "are lying" since the action is happening right now. The second verb "miss" should be in the simple past tense, which is "didn't miss" since it refers to a past event. Therefore, the complete sentence is:

"We are lying in the Greek sun right now if we didn't miss the flight!"

2. Don’t complain. We ___ (not be) in such a hurry now if you ___ (not oversleep)!

In this sentence, we need to use the correct form of the verb "be" and "oversleep". The first verb "be" should be in the present continuous tense, which is "wouldn't be" since it refers to the current situation if something didn't happen in the past. The second verb "oversleep" should be in the past simple tense, which is "hadn't overslept" since it refers to a past event. Therefore, the complete sentence is:

"Don't complain. We wouldn't be in such a hurry now if you hadn't overslept!"

In summary, the completed sentences are:

1. We are lying in the Greek sun right now if we didn't miss the flight! 2. Don't complain. We wouldn't be in such a hurry now if you hadn't overslept!
