Hi Montse,

I usually make these kind of exercises on the difficult side. I think I expect too much of my students. But you seemed to have coped more than well.

1. She was born the third of April. (this is correct in US) In the UK we'd say: She was born ON the third of April.

8. Where are you going FOR YOUR HOLIDAY this summer?

20. I AM THINKING OF GOING to the theatre this weekend. (We never use "think + to" in English).

21. A washing machine is SOMETHING WHICH/THAT cleans your clothes.

24. It takes me an hour to drive to work every morning (This is correct). You can also use the verb "spend": I SPEND an hour DRIVING to work every morning.
