In the past, my old grandmother didn't enjoy talking on the phone. Actually, she hated it so she was always refusing $^{(1)}$
to use
(use) it. She told us that she preferred speaking to people in person. It always made her sad that she couldn't see the person she $^{(2)}$
was talking
(talk) to. The other day, we $^{(3)}$
chatted
(chat) with Grandmother and mentioned video calling over the internet. It was invented for people to see each other while talking online. Then we $^{(4)}$
came
(come) up with an idea. We bought her a laptop. One of my $^{(5)}$
cousins
(cousin) went over to her house and taught her how to use it. $^{(6)}$
Luckily
(lucky), she was a quick $^{(7)}$
learner
(learn).
Now, she enjoys $^{(8)}$
herself
(her) when talking with us every day. She is happy and we can tell it from the expression on her face. She $^{(9)}$
says
(say) it's also very convenient. She can put the laptop anywhere in the house because it is small and doesn't take up much room. Sometimes she even talks to us while she $^{(10)}$
is cooking
(cook) in the kitchen!
