This exercise originally appeared in a post about prepositions, conjunctions and adverbs. I thought I would make it more 'visible' by giving it its own post. If you want to work on recognising the differences between these word classes, the original post is here.
Exercise 1 - Fill the gaps. The missing words are all prepositions, conjunctions or adverbs.
Exercise 2 - Then for each gap you filled, decide which part of speech (word class) your answer is, and enter p for preposition, c for conjunction or a for adverb in the small boxes on the right.
You were working (1) a waitress (2) a cocktail bar | ||||
(3) I met you | ||||
I picked you (4) , I shook you (5) , | ||||
and turned you (6) | ||||
Turned you (7) someone new | ||||
Now five years later (8) | ||||
you've got the world (9) your feet | ||||
Success has been so easy (10) you | ||||
But don't forget it's me who put you (11) you are now | ||||
And I can put you back (12) too | ||||
Chorus : | ||||
Don't, don't you want me? | ||||
You know I can't believe it (13) I hear that you won't see me | ||||
Don't, don't you want me? | ||||
You know I don't believe you (14) you say that you don't need me | ||||
It's much (15) late to find | ||||
You think you've changed your mind | ||||
You'd better change it (16) or we will both be sorry | ||||
Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh | ||||
Don't you want me baby? Don't you want me oh | ||||
I was working (17) a waitress (18) a cocktail bar | ||||
That much is true | ||||
But even (19) I knew I'd find a much better place | ||||
Either (20) or (21) you | ||||
The five years we have had have been such good times | ||||
I (22) love you | ||||
But now I think it's time I lived my life (23) my own | ||||
I guess it's (24) what I must do | ||||
(Repeat chorus) |
Open print-friendly page - If you want to show the words, you'll need to print on two pages. But if you want to do it as a listening without the words, you can print both parts together, in which case you'll probably have to adjust the scale to 90%.
