Can you tell me of my corrections are ok?
Thank you a lot in advance!
1.I explained to Fred how to get there so that he wouldn’t get lost.
2.I explained him (or to him) how to get there.
3.Imagine/Supposing you were in a wood during a storm, what would you do? (and not: imagine to be in a wood during a storm?)
4.I hope you will answer my letter soon (or to my letter soon?)
5.To sum up, this automatic lathe is a necessary tool for a firm that/which (?) wants to compete with the best ones.
6.If you want to make the soup more delicate (softer?), you should thin it before serving.
7.I really need to talk to her (also: to speak/with/to her?)
8.I typed this exercise on the computer for you to revise the use of prepositions.
2. use "to him"
3. use "Imagine" -- also "in the woods" or "in a forest" (not "in a wood")
5. use "that"
7. All variations are correct.
Ditch all the rest of the stuff in parentheses.
