Svp aidez moi à faire cette exercice et merci d'avance


Circle the right option.

Christa was riding in a Volkswagen with her fiancé through a rainstorm in Pennsylvania in 1969 (while – when – since)

the news came over the car radio : a man had set foot (on – in – off) the moon. They both cheered , but neither had (some

– no – any) reason to suspect that the event would someday directly change their lives. Much (late – later – lately), she

said “when I was young, women did not fly in space”. Last July, NASA announced that she (is – has been – had been)

chosen to join a shuttle crew. Despite other newfound (celebrity – competition – inspiration) Christa never doubted that

following her sojourn in space she would return to the family and above all to her classroom. She (tells – tell – told) an

audience last August : “the more I touch the future, the (better- good – best) I understand space.”

announced that she had been (5)chosen to join a shuttle crew.

Despite other newfound celebrity (6 )Christa never

(3) neither had any reason : aucun n'avait de raisons  / ni l'un ni l'autre n'avait

(5) had been : past perfect ( had + partticipe passé ) car c'est un événement antérieur à une action passée.

(6) newfound celebrity : célébrité nouvelle/retrouvée
