Borrowing

I borrowed a new pencil from you last week. Now it doesn’t have an eraser and is too small to fit into the pencil sharpener. Why don’t you let me borrow one of your new ones? You can have this one back that I borrowed from you last week.

I borrowed 10 sheets of paper from my teacher. When I told my mother about having to borrow paper, she suggested that I return the 10 sheets and add 10 more sheets to show my teacher how much I appreciated her loan. The next day I took 20 sheets of paper to my teacher.
