Answer:
The right word that fills the blanks in each case is:
- Hoy yo fui a un guateque campesino. Es un evento especial en Cuba. Hay mucha comida y música. Yo estaba muy emocionado. Para prepararme yo me duché, yo me vestí, y yo me arreglé el pelo. Durante la fiesta yo hablé con mi familia y mis amigos. Ellos comieron arroz y frijoles, pero el cerdo asado es su favorito. Nosotros bailamos mucho y nos cansamos. La fiesta terminó y yo volví a casa. Yo me puse los pijamas y yo me acosté.
- The verb "ser" is used because mentions a characteristics of the event named "guateque campesino," which are present until now, although the actions have been performed in the past.
- Moods that are usually momentary are not mentioned with the verb "ser" but with the verb "estar," because just in that moment the person is in that mood.
Explanation:
The translation of the paragraph is:
- Today I went to a "guateque campesino." It is an special event in Cuba. There is a lot of food and music. I was very excited. To prepare myself I took a shower, I dressed, and I fixed my hair. During the party I talked with my family and my friends. They ate rice and beans, but the roast pork is their favorite. We danced a lot and were tired. The party ended and I went back to house. I put on my pajamas and I went to bed.
Since the paragraph mentions the facts in detail, the verbs were mostly performed in the past, meanwhile, some of the conjugations require an object pronoun that is used when the noun that benefits from the action is the same as the It realizes, therefore the most used object pronoun was "me," since the facts were narrated in the first person.
