  • Accountant: a person whose job is to keep and examine records of money received or paid out by a business
Answering questions, preguntas que dio en clases y entran 3 por fila (azar), creo que no habrían más pero uno nunca sabe :B :
  1. How did Pascoe recognize Patrick the first time he saw him?
  2. What kind of man was Dick Elgood?
  3. How did Elle help Shaheed Singh?
  4. Why did Penny Highsmith have a different family name from her son Patrick?
  5. Why did Wield and Singh go to visit the Aldermans?
  6. What do you think about Patrick Aldermann?
Y una tercer parte que serían términos pareados, donde habría que unir personajes con lugares donde les ocurrió tal suceso.

Otra cosa, en este link pueden ver un resumen-traduccion-weapajera del libro que subió el Jalea a facebook ;)

Saludos, Christian.
