If I (46) ……….. studied A bit harder in the first term, I wouldn’t have (47) ……………….to worry about. I did try to make up for the lost time, but I know it is. I’ve been ( 48) ……………… to phone Jacqui, but I can’t seem to get ( 49) …………… to her. Has her number changed? Can you tell me if you know about this? I (50)……………… better finish now as it’s very late.
