Решение:

В данном тексте нужно вставить глаголы в правильной форме, продолжая повествование. Рассмотрим пропуск под номером 6:

«When he 6)... (to leave), a burglar...»

Согласно контексту, действие происходит в прошлом. Глагол 'leave' должен быть в прошедшем времени. Варианты:

  • was leaving (Past Continuous) - использовалось бы для описания длительного действия, прерванного другим.
  • leaved (неправильная форма прошедшего времени) - не существует.
  • left (Past Simple) - использовалось бы для описания завершенного действия в прошлом.

Учитывая, что это однократное действие, которое привело к последующим событиям (вторжение грабителя), наиболее подходящей формой является Past Simple.

Текст истории в прошедшем времени:

Tom Smith was a writer. He wrote detective stories for magazines. One evening he was not able to invent an end for a story. He sat with his typewriter in front of him, but he had no ideas. Then he went to the cinema. When he left, a burglar broke into his flat and read his story. The visitor left Tom a note: "I have read your story and I do not think much of it. I will not go to steal anything tonight, but I will return, when you become a successful writer." Tom studied the burglar's suggestions and wrote the rest of the story. He was still not a successful writer, and he waited for his burglar to return. Before he went out in the evening, he always left a half-finished story near his typewriter.
