EXAMPLE: It wasn't necessary for John to take a taxi.


There is a cheap and convenient train service.
John could have taken a train instead of a taxi.

1 This is the wrong way. We made a mistake in turning right instead of left.
2 I think Jack stole the radio. There is no other reasonable explanation.
3 You have a number of choices. Taking the course again is one possibility.
4 Is it possible that there is a tenth planet?
5 He wants to sell his bicycle for $100 but it is possible he will accept $80.
6 It was obvious it would break. Why didn't you realise that?
7 It's possible that Jane was at the party. I really don't remember.
8 You are likely to win the race if you train hard.
9 I'm sure that's Professor Smith. He always wears that kind of coat.
10 A week after we bought the computer, the price went down by $200. We didn't know that was going happen.
11 I have no idea what knocked the plant pots over. Was it the wind, perhaps?
12 When Peter woke up in hospital, he realised that he had no memory of the accident.
