I made 2 mistakes, no: 2 and 5

No2: It was clear for me, I should look at "for breakfash" it means past time.
No5: I understand that I should look at "the last time" but the question is "When was......so I choose "eating". So why do we use "was" for that question?

pronunciation

This is great Chris but don't you think you could also add some sound samples so that the students can hear the correct pronunciation too? Maybe even get to choose the correct pronunciation?

It was easy but it was necessary to pay attention at some phrases.
