1.That house has been empty for a year. But they just took down the "For sale" sign, so I think someone has bought it.

2.He lost his job last month and since then he has been out of work.

Why did he lose his job?

He was very rude to Mr. Pitt.

3.How long have you been out of work?

I'm not out of work now. I just started a new job.

How did you find your job? -I answered the advertisement in the paper.

4. I haven't seen your aunt recently.

No. She hasn't been out of the house since she bought her color TV.

Where have you been?

I have been to the dentist.

He took out your bad tooth?

Yes, he did.

Did it hurt?

Yes, horribly.
