Exercício 1
Elizabeth: What time did the kids get this morning? Usually they wake at 6.
Jonathan: I'm not sure. They were already when I got of bed.
Jonathan: I'm not sure. They were already when I got of bed.
Elizabeth: What time did the kids get up 1 this morning? Usually they wake at 6.
Jonathan: I'm not sure. They were already up 2 when I got out 3 of bed.
Jonathan: I'm not sure. They were already up 2 when I got out 3 of bed.
1 up: 'Get up' is synonymous with 'wake up' and 'get out of bed'. The phrasal verb 'to get up' expresses the action of movement 'up' and 'out of' a location, in this case the bed.
1 down: 'Get down' does not make sense here. Elizabeth is asking when the children 'woke up', not from where the children descended. 'To get down' can express the movement from high position to a low one, as in the sentence: Hey Horatio! Get down from that tree before you hurt yourself!. In a slang context 'to get down' can mean to boogie or go crazy on the dance floor.
1 over: 'Get over' does not make sense here. The phrasal verb 'to get over' is usually used when speaking about heartbreak or romantic disappointment. For example: 'I hope Ted 'gets over' his ex-girlfriend soon'. To 'get over' can indicate movement as well, in a different context. For example, a car on the freeway may want to get over to the exit lane.
2 up: Because Jonathan is still speaking about when the children got out of bed, we use 'up', which in this context means that the children were awake and moving around the house (after getting out of bed).
2 from: 'From' is grammatically incorrect here. We cannot say: 'They were from when'. 'From' is generally used as a preposition to indicate origin, as in the phrase 'Bruno stepped away from his desk and kissed me on the cheek'.
2 over: 'Over' does not make sense here. Jonathan is talking about when the children 'woke up'. We might say: The children are staying over at Grandma's tonight to describe that the children are staying 'overnight' with their grandmother.
3 out: Jonathan says 'I got out of bed', meaning that he woke up and left his bed. This is the best choice here. 'Out of' indicates movement towards the exterior. In this case it indicates Jonathan's movement from his bed.
3 up: We cannot say 'get up of bed'. It is grammatically incorrect. We can say however: 'Get up from bed'.
3 down: We cannot say 'get down of bed'. It is grammatically incorrect. We can say however: 'Get down from bed', if your bed is particularly high.
Exercício 2
Bruno: I would like you to get .
Kevin: But sir, we've been clean mugs for over two weeks.
Bruno: This isn't my problem. You can drink a soup bowl for all I care.
Kevin: But sir, we've been clean mugs for over two weeks.
Bruno: This isn't my problem. You can drink a soup bowl for all I care.
Bruno: I would like you to get out 1.
Kevin: But sir, we've been out of 2 clean mugs for over two weeks.
Bruno: This isn't my problem. You can drink out of 3 a soup bowl for all I care.
Kevin: But sir, we've been out of 2 clean mugs for over two weeks.
Bruno: This isn't my problem. You can drink out of 3 a soup bowl for all I care.
1 out: This is the best choice here. 'Get out' is an imperative command which is synonymous with the command 'leave'.
1 out of: 'Out of' cannot be used at the end of a sentence like this. In the imperative sense, it must be followed by something, usually a noun indicating a place ('Get out of my office' or 'Get out of my life', for example).
1 more: 'Get more' does not make sense in this construction. We could say, however: 'I would like you to get more sandwiches'.
2 out of: This is the best choice here. To be 'out of' clean mugs means that no more clean mugs remain. To be 'out of' something indicates that the supply has been exhausted.
2 out: 'Out' is grammatically incorrect in this construction. We cannot write or say 'we are out mugs' to express that no mugs remain.
2 from: 'From' does not make any sense here. The preposition 'from', which usually indicates origin, has no place in this construction.
3 out of: This is the best choice here. To drink 'out of' a soup bowl means indicates the action of drinking directly 'from' a soup bowl.
3 out: 'Out' is grammatically incorrect here. We cannot express the action of drinking directly from a bowl with 'out'.
3 of: 'Of', alone, has no place in this construction.
Exercício 3
Kevin: Please accept my apologies, Mr. Delavigne. I only did it respect for you.
Bruno: You copied my signature because you respect me!? Connors, that's absurd. I have patience for these games.
Kevin: Sir, please forgive me. It'll never happen again.
Bruno: You copied my signature because you respect me!? Connors, that's absurd. I have patience for these games.
Kevin: Sir, please forgive me. It'll never happen again.
Kevin: Please accept my apologies, Mr. Delavigne. I only did it out of 1 respect for you.
Bruno: You copied my signature because you respect me!? Connors, that's absurd. I have no 2 patience for these games.
Kevin: Sir, please forgive me. It'll never happen again.
Bruno: You copied my signature because you respect me!? Connors, that's absurd. I have no 2 patience for these games.
Kevin: Sir, please forgive me. It'll never happen again.
1 out of: This is the best choice here. We use 'out of' here to indicate the motivation for an action. Kevin says that he copied (or forged) Bruno's signature 'because' he respects him.
1 no: 'I did it no respect for you' is grammatically incorrect. There is no need to use negation to complete this sentence.
1 from: 'From' cannot express a person's motivation for an action. We cannot write or say 'I did it from respect'. However, note that 'from' can express the direct cause of something, for example: 'He has an injury from a skateboarding accident'.
1 of: 'Of' cannot express a person's motivation for an action. We cannot write or say 'I did it of respect'. However, Kevin might say 'I did it because of my respect for you'.
2 no: This is the best choice here. This is a simple negative statement. Bruno is telling Kevin that he 'doesn't have any patience left' or that he 'has no patience'.
2 out of: 'I have out of patience' is grammatically incorrect. We could say, however: 'I am out of patience', which would indicate that the speaker 'no longer' has any patience.
2 from: 'I have from patience left' is grammatically incorrect. The sentence lacks negation. If we add nothing, the sentence becomes an affirmative declaration: 'I have patience', which is illogical based on the context of the dialogue.
2 any: 'I have any patience' is grammatically incorrect. Since the main verb does not already carry the negation, we cannot use 'any'. We could say, however: 'I haven't any patience' or 'I don't have any patience'.
Exercício 4
When I got bed this morning, I noticed that my bedroom had been replaced by the inside of a spaceship. I had been abducted by aliens. a very early age it had been my dream, and now it was finally coming true.
When I got out of 1 bed this morning, I noticed that my bedroom had been replaced by the inside of a spaceship. I had been abducted by aliens. From 2 a very early age it had been my dream, and now it was finally coming true.
1 out of: This is the best choice here. We use 'out of' here to express the action of getting 'up from' bed. This use of 'out of' indicates the origin, or 'from where' the speaker 'got up', or removed himself from his bed.
1 from: 'I got from bed' is grammatically incorrect. 'From' cannot be used by itself to indicate the movement 'out of' bed. We can say, however: 'I got up from my bed'.
1 out: 'I got out bed' is grammatically incorrect. 'Out' cannot be used by itself to indicate the movement 'out of' bed.
1 up of: 'Up of' is grammatically incorrect. It is extremely rare to see these two prepositions used together like this. However, in a different context, we could say that 'a martini is made up of gin and vermouth'. 'to be made up of (gin and vermouth)' describes the composition of the Martini.
2 From: We use 'from' to indicate the start or beginning of a duration of time, whether precise or imprecise ('from 3:30 in the afternoon', or 'from a young age'. Here, 'from' describes the point in time when the speaker's dreams about aliens began (when he was young).
2 Of: 'Of a very early age' does not make sense. We must use the preposition 'from' to correctly complete this construction.
2 Out of: 'Out of a very early age' is grammatically incorrect. 'Out of' cannot be used to express the passage of time. It is usually used to denote movement or cause.
2 Up of: 'Up of' is grammatically incorrect. These two prepositions are never used together like this.

1 In: As a preposition of time, 'in' can be used to describe general dates and periods: in June, in one month, in two days, in 5 years.
2 On: We use the preposition 'on' to indicate specific dates such as the days of the week. For example: 'I go to the gym on Tuesdays and Thursdays.'
3 in: As a preposition of place, 'in' describes the interior of a location (such as a city, state, country or continent). Example: I live in the United States, but she lives in Europe.
4 up: The preposition 'up' is used here in one of its primary senses: to indicate movement towards an elevated position or to the top of a location. In this sentence, the elevator ascends (or goes UP) to the 35th floor of the building where a view of the city can be found.
5 down: To 'turn down the volume (on a stereo)' is to decrease or reduce the volume. 'Down' is often used to describe the reduction or decrease in volume, quantity etc. Note that as a preposition of place, 'down' can also describe downward (or southern) movement or location.
6 off: The phrasal verb to 'switch (a light) off' is stop it, or turn it off. Example: I switched off the fan because it was making too much noise. To 'switch off' is the opposite of to 'switch on'. Here 'off' expresses the idea of stopping or interrupting something.
7 out: To 'step out' of a location is a common phrasal verb. Here, 'out' indicates movement towards the exterior (outside the house). 'Out' is frequently used to indicate movement towards the exterior or outside of a location. 'Out' is frequently followed by 'of' when expressing the idea of movement from the interior to the exterior.
8 on: We use 'on' to describe the act of climbing onto, or boarding a bus, (or a boat or a plane). Be careful! We use 'in' when talking about a car (get in the car). It's a tough rule - I'm afraid you'll have to memorize it!
