A. Read the following paragraph and underline the reflexive pronouns.


MY BIRTHDAY
My birthday was on Sunday and I decided to decorate our flat myself. I coloured the paper and made beautiful circles to put
them on the walls. I drew funny faces and put them on the chairs. My mother helped me to lay the table. She cooked a very
tasty cake herself and put it in the middle of the table. I arranged the plates, the forks, the knives and the cups. My brother
presented me a new CD with lovely music. When my friends came we listened to music, ate cake, drank tea and talked. We
enjoyed ourselves at my birthday.
