Dear ozma:

Do you mean that you need to rewrite the sentences using the 'words given'?

>In this sentence, 'where' = 'the direction in which'

2. He now regrets writing the article because it was that that caused him all the problems he's had
words given: now wishes/but for/not
He 'regrets' something he did; he 'now wishes' he had not done this thing.

'If he had not written the article = 'but for (the writing of) the article'
he would not have the problems...

Can you construct new sentences using this information?
