Anyways, I wonder if anyone could help me out wth these word transformation sentences. Thanks in advance. 1) Our attempts to persuade David to continue his studies weren�t successful and he left university early. -MET- Our attempts to persuade David not to give ..... no success and he left university early. 2) I feel certain that there will be a new government after the election. -BOUND- In my opinion, there ... of government after the election. 3) I was hoping not to have to share a tent with anyone else on the camping trip. -TO- I was hoping I would ... myself on the camping trip but I had to share. 4) Steve�s one topic of conversation is the time he spent as a pilot. -EVER- The time he spent as a pilot ... about. 5) I don�t get on very well with many people but I hit it off with Jason straightaway. -TOOK- I don�t get on very well with many people but Jason ... another straightaway. 6) This is your third warning from me this week about being late for work. -NOT- This is the third time this week I .... be late for work.
