In this Spanish Medium Review quiz you will once again get the opportunity to put two sentences together. In fact, this quiz is the sister quiz to the Spanish Medium Review quiz titled Writing: Putting Two Sentences Together (1). In the first quiz you were shown sentences in English that had to then be translated into Spanish. Here you will be doing the reverse. In other words, you will be shown two sentences together in Spanish and you will need to find the proper English translation for the two sentences.
Again, as this is a WRITING quiz, you will be required to write down what you believe to be the proper English translation. Next - compare what you wrote with the given answers to see if your translation matches any one of them. How close did you come to one of the given answers? Remember as you to this, do not forget spelling, verb tenses and masculine and feminine words.
