    Exclamation Gerunds and prepositions

    Hi there teacher! Can you help me?
    I need to know how do I can change the next sentences (using gerunds and prepositions) with the words in brackets, keeping the same meaning.


    1. Does walking alone at night frighten you? (frightened of?)
    2. My father didn't have a problem with lending me the car.( OK about)

    Thank you so much!

    We don't do people's assignments for them. What do you think the answers are?

    I'm so sorry for my fault. This won't happen again.

    1. Does walking alone at night frighten you? (frightened of?)

    It can be... Are you frightened of walking alone at night?

    2. My father didn't have a problem with lending me the car.( OK about)

    .... My father was OK about lending me the car.

    Thanks for helping me, and once again sorry!
    Jazmín.
