Mathew did not study for the exam HE MUSTHAVE BEEN SICK HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE RESPONSIBLE HE COULD HAVE FAILED THE EXAM AN UNEXPECTED DECISION This story broke out on a Saturday night right efter Susan had decided to move out of her parents’ house. Nobody really knows what drove her to make that decision, but the only certain thingjs that she'd had it wth living there. ‘All her acquaintances knew that it was a matter of time for her to leave their parents’ place. Ever since she turned 18, her attitude towards everybody, near her, changed. Susan stopped being the girl everyone loved and looked up to and she did so in such @ sudden wey. Nobody could believe that something like that would happen to a girl whos always been family-centered and a long-life responsible student at high school which only makes this entire situation so confusing. Some people in her family just guess on the real cause why she made up her mind about doing this all in arush, some say ital her boyfriend’ fault, others would rather blame on her age, but her parent have thrown guilt on the new friends she's made recently. When you ask Susan about this problem, she tries toavoid giving explanations; however, she says there wasa time in which she started tofeel alone since she had nobody she could talk to and also that she felt put aside, so she took up drinking and started being non-caring about anything, not even about her own life. Susan says that there was evena time when she drank so much that she couldn't move, yet she managed to walk out of the bar and walk backhome during a rainy night. Susan just makes fun of it. What could an 18-year-old girl possibly do out of her parents house at that age? Lots of teenagershave succeeded in life, but with some aid from parents, Nevertheless, this isn't the case of Susan; she's jobless, hasn't gotten her high school diploma yet and on top of that has grown a habit that can be regarded as both, odd and worrying. What really happened is known by young Susan herself and no one else. ANSWER THE QUESTIONS USING MODAL PERFECT 1. When do you think she started the habit regarded as odd and worrying? 2.
