My friend Leo makes up weak and poor excuses whenever there is something he doesn’t want to do. Just two weeks ago, he was at my house when he decided he didn’t want to go into work. He called his boss and said he had to get a new set of tires put on his truck. Then he sat down and watched TV with me. (1)______________________. Another time, he cancelled a date with his girlfriend at the last minute telling her he had to get a new battery for his truck. She was angry and refused to go out with him again until he apologized. Last weekend, Leo offered the poorest excuse yet. (2)_______________________. He was supposed to bring his truck over about 8 o’clock Saturday morning. I waited, and then called and left a message on his machine. (3)__________________________. I guess he’d forgotten he used the same excuse when he called his boss from my house. I think I need a new set of friends. I’m beginning to get tired of Leo’s excuses.
(1)Not only had he lied, but he has skills watching to very convincing one.
(2)He promised he would help me move some furnitures from my parents house to my new apartment.
(3)About 11:13 he called , and he said he was sorry but he's been giving a new set of tires put on his truck.
1. Not only had he lied, but his excuse wasn't a very convincing one.
2. He promised he'd help me move some furnitures from my parent's house to my new apartment.
3. About 11:30 he called and said he was sorry but he's been getting a new set of tires put on his truck.
