Answer 2

The sentences are as follows-

(i) My mother used to go to the temple on Fridays when she was young.

(ii) Your ring is loose. Don’t lose it.

(iii) When I entered the room, the baby slept soundly.

(iv) He continued to bowl despite his shoulder injury.

• Semi-modals are a combination of an auxiliary verb and to. Some of these are ought to, used to, etc.
• Loose refers to something that is not tightly fixed or is bigger than necessary. Lose is used when something is misplaced.
• Since the sentence is in the past tense, the verb will be the past form of sleep.
• Despite is a preposition that is inserted to show contrast in situations.
