► ANSWER

Karen usually GETS UP at 7:00 a.m. She HAS a shower and she BRUSHES her teeth. After getting dressed, she PREPARES breakfast. She LIKES tea and pancakes. She CATCHES the bus at 8:00 a.m. and GETS to work by 8:30 a.m. She CHECKS her mail and all the messages. She and her colleagues usually MEET at 10 a.m. to prepare their day’s work. At 6:00 p.m. she LEAVES the office and HAS a drink. Then Karen GOES home.

NOTA:

En este ejercicio no solo hay que colocar los verbos en su posición correcta, sino que también hay que conjugarlos apropiadamente en presente simple, pues este es el tiempo verbal usado para expresar hábitos y rutinas. Como el sujeto de la mayoría de las oraciones es 'Karen' (que puede reemplazarse por el pronombre 'ella', que está en 3.ª persona del singular), la forma correcta de los verbos se obtiene añadiendo al infinitivo la terminacion '–es' o '–s' según corresponda.
