What to Focus On

  • The hawker cries, "Bangles, crystal bangles!"
  • The time is four in the afternoon.
  • The child is returning from school.
  • The gardener is seen through the gate of a house.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The hawker, gardener, and watchman are all the same kind of worker because they are all called vocations.
