00 1. What is the difference between "What do you like doing in your free time" and "What do you like to do in you free time" ? 02 br
00 2. In the following sentence: "Have you read Harry Potter?" "Yes, I have read... " would you choose "it" or "that" ? And why? 02 br
00 3. What's the best word describing classes that were not tough, especially classes that are just before the summer break and so on? We can't call them "loose" ,can we? I was wondering how to respond to a question like "How was it at school today?" "The classes were cool/easy/loose" ? 02 br
00 4. If I want to ask about someone's nationality I can use : "Where do you come from?" ,cant' I? But what about "Where are you coming from?" Is it just about short travels? like, let's say, I've just come into the city, and someone asks me "Where are you coming from?" and I say "I'm coming from NY" ? Hmm... it's kind of blurry... 02 br
