    • It was two hours long. I got caught up reading some of it. It was really, really difficult, so then I ran out of time, meaning the clock stopped, the test was over, and I didn't have enough time to finish. Ran out. Now, you can use your time up, right? You will run out of time if you do that, use up the time, right? So, you have a certain amount, I was going to say allotted, but you have a certain amount of time given to you, allotted, and you use it up, okay? So, that's to be out of time. This is through and throughout time.

    • Okay, yes, that was a tough one, because that could have been during the night, or, but remember we said apart when we talked about during, okay, and we said it's a part of a larger thing. When I talked about throughout, I said it can be to the end and maybe a bit before, a bit extra, a little bit extra. So, in this case, it was through the night, right? It went throughout the night and to the early morning, just a little bit extra. So, throughout is the correct answer here. What about number four? Josh is on his way home now. He should arrive around. Yeah, because this is should, right? We're looking at a modal here and it's like the right thing or kind of, so this modal tells us around, right? You should do something is like, it's the right thing to do. It doesn't mean you're going to do it, but it is the right thing to do. It's approximately, giving an approximation. In this case, when we said around, he should arrive. I think so. That's what he should do. Don't know. Maybe, maybe a little earlier, a little late. Through makes no sense here because you can't go through nine o'clock. You're not a car hitting a wall. Okay? And now finally, number five. The test was very difficult and I couldn't answer all of the questions. I, out of, ahead of time. What do you think? Sorry, time's up. What time now? I ran out of time. Ran out of. Remember? You have no more left. If you were ahead of time, that would be early, but you said it was very difficult and you couldn't answer. So clearly, you ran out of time. Cool? All right. So now we answer these questions and I hope to give you not just the answers to the questions, but the understanding that you have to look at context, showing you that different words can give you the word you want to use. Yeah?
