A Film Star I Like

My favourite actor is Tom Cruise.

Tom is an American actor and producer. He was born in 1962 in Syracuse, New York. He started appearing in films in 1981 when he played a small part in the film "Endless Love".

Tom Cruise became famous after starring int such films as "Top Gun", "Rain Man", "A Few Good Men", "The Vampire Chronicles", "Mission: Impossible" and "Jerry Maguire". His recent films are "Jack Reacher" and "The Mummy". Most of his films are action films, thrillers, dramas and science-fiction films.

My favourite films with this actor are a "Mission: Impossible" film series where Tom plays a part of Ethan Hunt, a special agent of the Impossible Missions Force. The first film appeared in 1996 and the latest one was released in 2018. I like these films because their plot is always interesting and there are a lot of special effects and stunts in them. I admire Tom Cruise because he is a great actor and he always does his own stunts.

On Thursday morning at breakfast Steven said: "It's high time you (made up) your mind about that visit to "Four Winds" this weekend. We ought to go, you know. We haven't been at the Marshalls' for ages, we just can't put them off."
"But, Steven," said Ruth ill-temperedly, "I can't go. If my grey dress (had not been sent) to the cleaner's I (could) wear it. But I can't wear my new suit, it's not hot enough for it yet."
Steven finished his food and was looking through his mail.
"Why treat it as if it (were) a serious problem? Why make such a "fuss about nothing? At "Four Winds" everyone wears just anything."
Opening a letter he added: "Really, you're a most annoying person, Ruth. What I want to know is, can you go or can't you?"
"I can if you can. You know that."
"I'm not sure yet how busy I'll be tomorrow. I suggest that you (go down) tomorrow afternoon. George (will pick) you up and (drive) you down if you (agree) to go tomorrow. And I'll turn up in the evening, if I can get away, or on Saturday morning at the latest."
"Oh, no," Ruth laid down her knife and fork. "I wish we (went) together."
"I wish you (went) ahead."
"I'm not going without you," Ruth said firmly. "But for you they (would not ask/ would not have asked) me to come, anyway. They only ask me because I'm your wife. And it looks as if Marion (hates) me. I wish you (had rung) them up yesterday and told them that I'm coming with you."
