I'll do my best; in all honesty, it seems like these answers can vary, so just pick and choose what you think is correct from the multiple answers you got on here:

1. Waited
2. answers will vary
3. was announced
4. Made
5. Delayed
6. Got
7. Checked
8. Is allowed
9. Was given
10. Waited

If you need an explanation as to why I chose these answers, then just ask to do so.

I'm not very good at these, but I've done my best. Try asking your question on Yahoo Answers, they serve a great homework help category over there. I help out on Yahoo answers on the family and relationships category. @gerryliyana
