(c) She heard a crying sound. In the crowd, he could not find his parents. There is nothing to link the two sentences. Each sentence is correct, but they do not have a connection. (d) He was lost with his parents. This means that both the boy and his parents are lost. (e) Jenny squatted down and asked the boy why he was crying. ok (f) He felt pity of / for him. ok Feebs11 Joined on Thu, Nov 23 2006 UK Veteran Member 5,015
