Choose which verb tense (simple past or past continuous) fits better. 1.1 -I didn't hear you come in. a) was sleeping b) slept 2.1 to see her twice, but she wasn't home. a) was…

Here are the correct choices for each sentence:

1.1 - I didn't hear you come in.
b) slept
(The simple past fits better as it indicates a complete action in the past.)

2.1 - I wanted to see her twice, but she wasn't home.
b) came
(Simple past is more suitable here as it describes a completed action that didn't happen.)

3. What b) were you doing? I was watching TV.
   (Past continuous fits here since it emphasizes an ongoing action at that time.)

4. Robin Hood was a character who a) stole from the rich and gave to the poor.
   (Simple past is used here for a completed action.)

5. Hey, did you talk to her? Yes, I b) talked to her.
   (Simple past is appropriate as it indicates a completed action.)

So the full answers are:

1. b) slept
2. b) came
3. b) were you doing
4. a) stole
5. b) talked
