A grammatical question

My friend doesn't take me anyplace.
My friend doesn't take me to any places.

Both of those are correct. The first is the usual.

Thank you Mister Micawber. We're working on identifying lexical and grammar confusions this week. This lesson would be the most tedious one for me.

If that's a typical example, then the exercise seems rather worthless.

"My friend don't let me any place" - this is the original sentence. For this particular sentence, we're supposed to guess what speaker tries to say and also fix the sentence, but keep the same meaning.

Ah.

My friend doesn't let me go anywhere.
My friend doesn't let me go anyplace.
My friend doesn't take me anywhere.

Mister Micawber, you are a genius!!!!

Here's another, if you want to guess. I'm drawing a blank. I lost sleep last night after working on many tough sentences.

"I'm deceived for answer as quickly"

MelonieG"I'm deceived for answer as quickly"

Good luck!

I don't have a quick answer.
I can't come up with a quick answer.
I'm sorry that I can't answer your question right now.
I'm disappointed that I haven't received an answer yet.
I got the wrong answer because I was working too fast.

It could be anything.
