Hi,
are the following sentences correct?
1] I must've been sleeping when you said that.
2] -Where's the car?
-I've parked it in the garage.
3] The problem that worries me the most is that I can't affect what's going to happen next.
4] She dumped me because I was acting like a fool at the party.
5] The ceremony will be/is held on 18th December.
6] We sat quietly,watching the sun go/going over the horizon. (not sure whether to use go or going - what is the difference?)
7] I've put the books on the shelf so that the kids won't be able to get at them.
Thank you in advance.
