    Default Did I rewrite this sentence correctly?

    I was told to rewrite the sentence using the word passed

    They didn't reply to my letter for two months
    ->Two months passed by before they replied to my letter

    Did I got it right? It was taken from the book Use of English by Mark Harrison but my key page got ripped out. Some one check it for me.
