APLE HOMEWORK 7/10. Deadline May 7th

I know some people like Helena are fed up with the Royal Wedding, but you've got to admit it is an important event. Therefore, this week your homework has to do with that.



You have to do all the seven sections and every time you finish one section, print your screen with the results and then paste them on a Word document. To print your screen, you need to press the key "Imp pant" or "Print Screen", which is on the right of the F12 key or so. If you have problems printing your screen, ask me in the class. Then, send me the Word document with all your scores to my usual address javiprofeingles@hotmail.com.
And they lived happily ever after.
