answers you could have given: 

1b: Once a week. I am not really interested in following the news.

1b: Every day. I really want to know what's happening in the world.

1c: Watching the news on TV. It's the easiest way to learn about news events.

If your answer resembles the answers given, reward yourself with a smiley.

exercise 3: Complete the w'app dialogue with the correct imperatives. Sometimes, you need to use a negation (not).

Choose from:

to feed – to have – to lock – to overfeed – to tell – to walk – to water

(gebiedende wijs)

tell

Have

walk

feed

don't overfeed

don't water

lock

the imperative

Imperatives -> orders, advice, instructions, warnings or offers.

Imperatives are like infinitives without 'to'. To make them negative simply add 'do not' or 'don't' before the verb.
