This exercise aims to help you practice writing by answering questions using the preterite.

You will have both yes and no answers, so you can choose what relates to you.

1. Did you burn a compact disc last week? *(to burn a CD means to copy something on a CD)*

– Sí, **quemé** un disco compacto la semana pasada.
(Yes, I burned a compact disc last week.)

– No, no **quemé** un disco compacto la semana pasada.
(No, I did not burn a compact disc last week.)

Notice how we used the preterite form of the verb ***quemar** (to burn)* to talk about past actions.

2. Did you use instant messenger the day before yesterday?

– Sí, **usé** el mensajero instantáneo anteayer .
(Yes, I used instant messenger the day before yesterday.)

– No, no **usé** el mensajero instantáneo anteayer .
(No, I did not instant messenger the day before yesterday.)

Again, we used the preterite form of the verb ***usar** (to use)* to talk about a past action.

3. Did you take photos with a digital camera last year?

– Sí, **tomé** fotos con la cámara digital el año pasado.
(Yes, I took photos with a digital camera last year.)

– No, no **tomé** fotos con la cámara digital el año pasado.
(No, I did not take photos with a digital camera last year.)

Again, we are talking about a past action and are using the preterite form of the verb ***tomar** (to take).*
