B/ It is cold as is. Don't turn the A.C. On,

C/ I can't think of a reason why that's the way it is.

D/ They say they are good people but they are happy making money off the poor.

E/ I arrived home after 6 months abroad right when grandma was about to pass.

F/ Speeding isn't worth the time you make up.

G/ Being a insect, you can die [at] any minute.

H/ I've been here 2 weeks and I don't know what the map of the state looks like; where I am in relation to the big cities.

I/ The longer I stay here, the quicker time flies. The first week passed by slowly, the second week passed by a lot quicker.

Thank you for your kind help
