Would you please correct my mistakes in the following sentences?
1. The young girl would spend her spare time trying on clothes, putting on make-up, and making faces at herself in the mirror.
2. Anna was grinding pepper over the steak in her kitchen, listening with anger to the rustling of the paper her husband was reading at the table.
She had told him hundreds of time not to read his paper in the kitchen while she was cooking, but the man did the same thing, nevertheless.
3. Peter stopped with fear as he heard behind him the click of a gun's safety catch.
4. The fat man at the table let out a loud belch, and almost all the patrons turned their heads.
5. It was cold and blustery, and I felt chill sneaking under my clothes.
6. John was tall, and his feet poked out from beneath the duvet.
7. Gina worked long hours as a cleaner. She would return home late in the night and flop down in bed with exhaustion.
8. Mr Hitchens was a great conversationalist and would ardently defend his ideas.
9. Although Nabokov had spent years in the US, he had always remained a Slave by heart.
10. Some people in the audience insulted the writer and told him to go away. He paused for a second or two as if marshalling his thoughts,
and went on to talk in a measured voice as if he had not heard anything.
