What is the difference between Spanish Imperfect and Preterite Tense?
Ok, so my 16 page spanish packet that I was assigned has a sheet on whether to use Imperfect or Preterite tense from verbs in a paragraph. The story is in past tense but the directions say to determine if the verb given is preterite or imperfect. I need your help to tell me which are perfect and which are preterite. The next part says to conjugate them, but I can do that by myself. Heres the paragraph:
Eran las cinco ocurrió el accidente. Había mucha gente en las calles. Mis amigos y yo 1._____(caminar) por una calle cuando 2._____(ver) el accidente. Yo 3.____(correr) entonces 4._____(caerse) cuando 5._____(oír) el ruido. Yo no 6.____(lastimarse) pero estaba asustado porque era un accidente terrible.
Yo 7.______(hablar) con mis padres más tarde y ellos me 8._____(decir) que 9._____(leer) cuando 10. _____(oír) chocar dos coches. Un reportero 11._____(decir) que todas las personas 12.______(lastimarse) y unos 13.______(morir).
Mi abuela 14._____(cruzar) la calle cuando un coche casi 15._____(chocarse) con ella. Ella no tenía que ir a sala de emergencia, pero estaba asustada.
Thanks and have a nice day:)

I am absent often in middle school and I was wondering if colleges will look at that. Also, how much will it influence them if I missed like 1/2 a day a week if evened out?
3 AnswersHigher Education (University +)9 years agoWhat do you think of the name Kateleine?
Pronounced like "Kate - Lynn"
Its an alternative form of Caitlin, I made it up by combining the "Leine" from Madeleine and the "Kate" from Katelyn. Can you rate it 1-10? Kate is English and it means pure, and Leine is French and it means from the lake.
My second choice is Emmeleine, pronounced like "Emma - Lynn". If I choose to use this, should I use Emmaleine or Emmeleine? Emme is English and means universal.
Thanks in advance!
8 AnswersBaby Names9 years agoWhat political party (from america) am i?
Ok, so I would like to know if there is a certain political party that I am. I am from america, so don't say left or right wing please.
I think I am a republican but I am not sure if there are any smaller parties that fit my beliefs.
Here are my views on some issues:
Political:
I am against immigration and illegal immigrants. It should be a lot harder to get into the United States. Promote national border security.
It is not the government's job to protect the environment. There are many more important issues to resolve before the environment.
There should be factories in America, not China in which we owe billions of dollars to.
Economical:
I am for the flat tax system, against the progressive tax system.
Corporate and income taxes should be greatly reduced.
Spending cuts to Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, and Foreign Aid.
Social:
Against gay marriage. The definition of marriage is "a formal union of man and woman, where they become husband and wife" Not a man and a man or a woman and a woman.
Neutral for abortion.
Against cloning, its unethical.
Promoting abstinence in public schools.
Americanism should be taught in schools instead of multiculturalism.
Guns should be allowed but with some guidelines.
Please don't make a joke about my beliefs or insult them.
Thanks in advance.

4 AnswersOther - Entertainment10 years agoWhat does it mean when a guy says pull your shirt up?
So sometimes when I walk past a guy, he would say "pull your shirt up" to me. This happened twice to me and I don't get what it means. Is he saying to like take off my shirt to see my boobs or to pull my shirt up because it is too low? I have huge boobs for my age but I am kind of overweight, I not obese or anything, just a little chubby.

Ok, so 10 days before I get my period, I get PMS symptoms. Last month, I got acne. This month, I had cravings for blueberry bars and a turkey sandwich. I also got bloated. On the day I get my period, the cramps are really bad and they wake my up at night. I get them for the whole day. My period length and flow are pretty normal, but why are the PMS symptoms ten days before? And how can I stop feeling bloated?
