1026614 Tom couldn't count to ten until he was three years old. CK 1 3148342 Tom couldn't decide whether to go to Boston or Chicago. CK 1 1095131 Tom couldn't discuss the problem with anybody but Mary. CK 1 1960911 Tom couldn't figure out how Mary managed to stay alive. CK 1 1095028 Tom couldn't understand why she wanted to learn French. CK 1 1026461 Tom did the best he could, but he still got bad grades. CK 1 1093257 Tom looked for his first-aid kit, but couldn't find it. CK 1 1024264 Tom said he couldn't clean the pool tomorrow afternoon. CK 1 2432316 Tom was disappointed that he couldn't get into Harvard. CK 1 1884425 Tom was hoping he could learn how to live off the land. CK 1 2774124 Tom wishes he could speak French like a native speaker. CK 1 1027718 Tom wondered what could have made Mary change her mind. CK 1 2451104 We all took it for granted that Tom could speak French. CK 1 1895788 You can't keep Tom from wishing he could go to college. CK 1 291489 He had to work as hard as he could to finish it in time. CK 1 2293185 I assume it's clear to you now why we couldn't hire Tom. CK 1 2293268 I assumed because we're brothers that I could trust you. CK 1 2050696 I could be playing golf right now instead of doing this. CK 1 2308073 I could be wrong, but I think it'll rain this afternoon. CK 1 2308127 I could have won the race if I hadn't sprained my ankle. CK 1 253811 I had intended to finish this yesterday, but I couldn't. CK 1 3024257 I think something like this could only happen in Boston. CK 1 71619 I was disappointed when I heard that you could not come. CK 1 3148394 I wish I could take you back to Boston with me tomorrow. CK 1 1972587 It could be dangerous to do what Tom is asking us to do. CK 1 50910 It was so noisy there that I couldn't make myself heard. CK 1 407120 Since he was very drunk, he couldn't drive his car home. CK 1 2064975 Sorry I couldn't come over yesterday. Something came up. CK 1 1027333 That day, Tom bought as many cameras as he could afford. CK 1 1884537 Tom asked me if I could go cycling with him on Saturday. CK 1 1095521 Tom certainly couldn't have succeeded without your help. CK 1 1095200 Tom could have told Mary the truth, but he chose not to. CK 1 2220774 Tom could see that Mary was about to break down and cry. AlanF_US 1 2956360 Tom couldn't find a job in Boston, so he came back home. CK 1 1026577 Tom couldn't go because he was unable to get permission. CK 1 1095104 Tom couldn't have done anything to prevent the accident. CK 1 1095083 Tom couldn't possibly have done what you claimed he did. CK 1 1029390 Tom couldn't understand a single word of what Mary said. CK 1 1095035 Tom couldn't understand why Mary had made that decision. CK 1 1029301 Tom didn't know the reason why Mary couldn't go bowling. CK 1 2537257 Tom said something in French that I couldn't understand. CK 1 1543596 Tom was impressed by how well Mary could play the flute. CK 1 1960931 Tom's lawyer said that he couldn't put Tom on the stand. CK 1 2951604 Could you please take care of my dog while I'm in Boston? CK 1 2451099 Could you teach me some French phrases that I might need? CK 1 51458 Excuse me, but could you tell me the way to the bus stop? CK 1 35285 I became very nervous when I couldn't locate my passport. CK 1 2308072 I could be wrong, but I think Tom wants to go home early. CK 1 2042672 I could force you to do that, but I don't really want to. CK 1 2063213 I needed your help on something, but I couldn't find you. CK 1
