3The lesson 20 minutes
The rules to recall
Month 14 in four patterns.
| Rule | Example |
|---|---|
| the news verb agrees with what happened | откры́лся парк, прошла́ вы́ставка |
| short forms agree like adjectives | музе́й откры́т, библиоте́ка закры́та |
| reported speech keeps the tense | Он сказа́л, что живёт в Москве́. |
| a yes-or-no question takes ли | Она́ спроси́ла, откры́т ли музе́й. |
| спроси́ть for information, попроси́ть for action | попроси́ла меня́ позвони́ть |
