This question asks me to rewrite these sentences which are in the present tense to preterite or imperfect according to the context.

1. En la Ã©poca en que Ãngel conociÃ³ a HÃ©ctor, no tenÃa dinero.

2. Cuando Ãngel llegÃ³ al puerto de San Juan en Puerto Rico, se sintiÃ³ muy confundido.

3. Ãngel no encontrÃ³ la felicidiad en Puerto Rico ni pudo vivir de su pintura ni se hizo rico.

4. En mis dÃas libres venÃa al puerto para prescar It makes sense with "vengo", but, you are asked to write the past, not the present. :)

5. HÃ©ctor llamÃ³ a los jÃ³venes para decirles que querÃa hablar con ellos

6. Arturo siempre preparaba las brochetas de la misma manera.

7. Raquel y LuÃs fueron estudiantes de la misma universidad y se conocieron alli.

8. Raquel y Arturo no bailaban tango frecuentemente.

You were asked to rewrite the sentences in the past form!
