1. A gentleman always asks leave to place himself at a lady's orders. 2. Do stand erect, boy! That's right! 3. When you hear that we have gone to Switzerland, start too[l], and follow us step by step. 4. What a charming man is[2] your cousin! 5. The greatest respect is due to young ladies. 6. Hello! You here! We were talking about you, weren't we? 7. We may[3] not ascribe to other people intentions of which they are guiltless. 8. «I understand you very well, although[4] I am deaf.» 9. «That's why you do not always answer when spoken to, isn't it?» 10. We shall meet again somewhere, shan't we?
