Follow the model. Be sure to use the past perfect in your answer.

B.- Why?

A.- He said he had saved enough money to buy those rings. I don´t believe him.

OR

A.- I don´t think Packard robbed the Lorenzo house. B.- Why not? A.- He said he had saved the money to buy his mother a present. I think he sounds honest.

3. My best friend called me after ____________________________________________________________
4. When my cell phone rang, I _______________________________________________________________
5. After I saw that movie, ___________________________________________________________________

When you begin the sentence with the adverbs before, after or when , don´t forget to put comma at the end of the first clause. *When he went to the police station, he had already found Bully.

Look!

Notice!

* If the Past Perfect action did occur at a specific time, the Simple Past can be used instead of

the Past Perfect when "before" or "after" is used in the sentence. The words "before" and "after" actually tell you what happens first, so the Past Perfect is optional.

• In sentences with “when” , we must use the past perfect to show the sequence of events.
