    Another good submission!  The previous reviewers have made good corrections; here is one more version:

    1) The man came home from work, sat at table, and read the newspaper that was on the table, while waiting for the woman. She was bathing, and later came down and met the man, prepared the coffee for him and sat on the couch to talk. 2) I took the box full of candy and put it on the table for you. You were on a diet, but kept the candies, changed your clothes and went running. 3) The girls were playing with the green ball while the boy was sleeping. The boy agreed and hid in the box to give a scare to the girl who played in the room.

    Again, you make these into little stories, which makes them more interesting!  Each one could develop into a bigger story...

    Nice job!
