Grammar review
All twenty items offer the same four kinds of answer. Before learners choose, ask who receives the action: the subject itself, someone else, or each person in a pair. Then ask whether the verb takes a pronoun at all: some verbs that are reflexive in other languages, such as remember and fall asleep, take no reflexive in English.
