Reduced infinitives
I have a question concerning grammar:
Browsing a bunch of exercises the other day I run into one on Reduced infinitives and sth attracted my attention. I had to find to sentences in which the use of the reduced infinitive wasn't possible and I had to explain why. In mu opinion these two were the sentences. Can anybody check them out for me and tell me why? I´m not surprised he was angry, But he was much angrier ___________ (expect) Was John surprised when he won? Of course he was. He _____________(expect) |
