You MUST use the keyword, and you can't CHANGE the keyword. If the keyword is 'follow' you cannot write 'follows' or 'following'.


Make sure the nouns and verbs in your sentence 'agree' with each other.


  • I play

  • you play

  • he plays.


Try to keep the same meaning from the first sentence.

Use the same words where possible.
