    Mina This was last year, and I went to a hotel with some friends.

    It had a bar on the top floor,


    and that’s where the party was. We got there at about 11.00. About half an hour before
    midnight I realized I didn’t have my phone – it was in my car. So I took the lift down to the
    car park. I found my phone, and then I got back into the lift – I was the only person in it. But
    then, between the third and fourth floors, the lift stopped completely and I couldn’t get out.
    I pressed the button and asked for help, but a guy said there was an electrical fault and I
    needed to wait. Then a few minutes later, I could hear people outside celebrating. It was
    awful – I didn’t get out until almost 1.00 in the morning. And on top of it all, my friends
    didn’t realize that I wasn’t there!

    Jenny I had a fantastic New Year’s Eve in Iceland in 2013. First, we went to a really
    expensive restaurant for dinner. It was early, about 6.00, because that’s when people have
    dinner in Iceland. I wore a lovely dress, but after dinner we got a taxi back to the hotel and I
    put on boots and a warm jacket. Then we went out and watched the amazing fireworks.
    Suddenly, at about 10.00, everyone went home to watch TV – there’s this famous programme
    they always watch on New Year’s Eve! It was really strange – the streets were empty for a
    bit. But then just before midnight people came out again and danced and drank till about 5.00
    in the morning. It was incredible.
    Andy I’m a DJ, and this happened to me a few years ago. It was my first time at a New
    Year’s Eve party, and I planned all the music really carefully. I knew exactly which tracks I
    was going to play. The first part of the night was fine, but just when I thought it was time to
    start the countdown to midnight, I saw that people were all at the bar, not on the dance floor,
    and the TVs were on. On the screens I could see fireworks, and Big Ben! I looked at my
    watch and I realized it was about two minutes slow! I felt really stupid. I bought anew watch
    the next day!

    Fill in the gaps with the past form of one of the verbs in the box.
    think – happen – know – feel – be – see – buy
