I would really really appreciate if anyone can look over the following sentences... so confused

  • She said “Kathy has seen her last day. I am going to kill (her).
Ella dijo “Kathy ha visto su ultimo dia. La voy a matar.”

  • Did Jack and Steve have a big wedding? No, they gave a small party.
Jack y Steve tuvieron una boda grande? No, ellos dieron una

fiesta pequena.

  • Mr. Smith remembers when Elvis was on the Ed Sullivan Show. Mr. S. was a child then.
El Sr. Smith recuerda cuando Elvis estuvo en el Programa de Ed Sullivan. El Sr. S. era un niño en aquel entonces.

  • You (usted) think that Mr. S is lying? Think again: he is telling the truth.
Usted piensa que el Sr. S está mintiendo? Piensa otra vez: él está diciendo la verdad.

  • My sister was having a difficult pregnancy. Then she had the baby. After that, she was much better.
Mi hermana tuvo un embarazo dificil. Luego de eso tuvo a su bebe. Despues de eso ella esta mucho major.

  • We went to the hospital when she gave birth.

  • “I put some money into stocks last month.”
“Did you (tu) put any money into commodities?”
Yo puse algo de dinero en acciones el mes pasado.
Tu pusistes algo de dinero para los productos primarios.

  • Why does Mr. Smith keep on writing problems like there? He should make the exam easy.
Por que el Sr. Smith sique escribiendo problemas como este?
El deberia hacer el examen mas facil.

4) ...piense (otra vez) -subjunctive, as there is no imperative form for "usted"-
5) had her baby = tuvo a su bebe OK / try again with the other verbs
6) One verb vanished
7) pusistes
8) sigue

Many problems with spelling -not only stress marks and ñ-, some problems with grammar and vocabulary choices... can't say wow but it's not bad.

Try again with 5) and 6)
