-"I would say that she's always dreamt of a better family."
-"No, they firstly refered me to a psychiatrist."
-"The old man winked at me and giggled with his toothless mouth."
-"Their hate," she estimated, "stems from their childhood, right?"
-"I'm not gonna take it easy; I'll do the harm quick on the draw and out of the blue."
Thank you very much, Wes!

Thank you for another quiz! I really enjoy your quizzes, since they’re, at the same time, useful and entertaining! However, I wonder if this one is actually for the advanced level… although I was a bit unsure in three cases, I found all the correct answers. I’m not criticizing you! 😄 I just wonder if the verbs you’ve chosen for this quiz form part of the vocabulary that students typically have to learn at the C1 or C2 level.
Anyway, many thanks for your lesson!
Best wishes,
Anna

I'm getting a cat that looks like that. Maybe. I'm doing a professional website for rescue cats. It's the first part of my new job: Money-making web site doing something that interests you. Finding homes for as many cats as possible interests me. I wanted it to be animals but the man doing the training said I needed to narrow it down, so I chose to write about cats.
