Susan isn’t new to the school.
В a) в диалоге есть It’s in Room D, Are you new ...? и I’m twelve. В утвердительном предложении с Susan и He используем is = ’s, с I — am = ’m, с They и You — are = ’re. Для отрицания к форме be добавляем not: isn’t, aren’t; с I употребляем I’m not. После изменения формы остальные слова предложения сохраняем. Например, Susan’s new to the school превращается в Susan isn’t new to the school.
a) “It’s in Room D.” “Are you new to the school?” “I’m twelve.”
