Today's task

Every sentence needs today's structure: estar a punto de. Write the whole sentence in Spanish, then check your work. Each sentence is marked in three chunks, so a partly correct answer still scores.

Stuck? Open the Step 21 phrase list
estaba a punto de salirI was about to go out
estoy a punto de empezarI am about to start
justo cuando…just as…
de repentesuddenly
iba a + inf.I was going to

Try each sentence once with the list closed first. That is what exam day will feel like.
