Fill in the blanks below with the correct form of the verb:

1 sent: Because the main verb (to send) is preceded by the preterit auxiliary 'had', we must use the past perfect tense (I had sent), which uses the past participle form of the main verb (sent). The past perfect tense is used to situate one past action which occurred before another.
2 knew: We often use the simple past tense to complete constructions which use the past perfect tense. Here the first verb (had sent) tells us about a past action which was done before the second action (knowing it was to late).
3 broken up: Because the main verb (to break up) is preceded by the preterit auxiliary 'had', we must use the past perfect tense (I had broken up), which uses the past participle form (broken). 'To break up' is a phrasal verb meaning to end a romantic relationship. The past perfect tense is used to situate one past action which occurred before another.
4 taken: Because the main verb (to take) is preceded by the preterit auxiliary 'had', we must use the past perfect tense (I had taken), which uses the past participle form (taken). 'To take (something) upon oneself' means to take some initiative or to charge oneself with a task.

Replace the phrasal verb broke up in the sentence below:

After I gave it to him, he split up with me and called off the engagement!
split up: The phrasal verb to "break up" indicates that a couple has separated. Example: After I met Fred, I decided to break up with John. This shares the same meaning as the phrasal verb to "split up". Example: Ken and Barbie split up after forty years of marriage.
ran off: The phrasal verb to "run off" has several meanings, and can express that a romantic couple have gone away someplace together in order to get married. Example: Since his mother did not approve, the young couple ran off to Las Vegas to get married. However, to "run off" does not share a similar meaning with to "break up".
checked out: The phrasal verb to "check out" has two main meanings: One is when to officially leave a hotel. Example: We had to check out of our hotel before 11 am. The other meaning of "check out" is to investigate with the intention of trying. Example: I want to check out the new Korean restaurant in our neighborhood.
fell through: The phrasal verb to "fall through" expresses that something did not work, however it cannot be used in relation to a romantic relationship. It is often used in a business sense when a deal does not complete successfully. Example: At the last minute, our partner quit the company and the deal fell through.

Select all the best statements to declare your love! There may be more than one!
Love, love, love... To "fall in love with (someone)" is a beautiful thing, but to be "head over heels (in love with someone)" is the best. I met my love at a heavy metal festival and in the middle of a stage dive we fell head over heels for one other.
Yes we are, aren't we?! A "match made in heaven" is a perfect combination of two things, just like you and me! Other great matches: Ginger Rodgers and Fred Astaire, Bacall and Bogart, Bonnie and Clyde, Tea and Toast, Steak and Chips, Cigarettes and Children, Cricket and A Summer's Day, Strawberries and Cream, Beer and Football, Gym and Glish...
How could you want to end our relationship on Valentine's day?! You want to "break up", you're "dumping" me, we're "splitting up"! They all describe the same thing: ending a love affair. How awful! Have you got a tissue please?
I know! A "soul mate" is someone with whom you share a deep affinity, friendship, love, intimacy, sex and/or compatibility. We spend most of our lives looking for a "soul mate", you could say it's the reason for living for most people. I found mine behind the dustbins outside the local supermarket.
Exercício 4
What does Jean want to do?
What does Jean want to do?
This is incorrect. Jean doesn't want to marry his girlfriend (or propose to her).
Jean doesn't love his girlfriend any more. He is asking Brian, Polly and Philip to help him "break up with" his girlfriend. To "break up with" someone is to end a relationship with them, to "separate" from them, or to "dump" them. If you no longer love someone, you might like to think about breaking up with them!
This is incorrect. Jean doesn't want to buy his girlfriend a present or gift.
This is incorrect. Although Philip would probably agree to this proposition, sharing his girlfriend is not what Jean wants to do.
