2. Complete the chart based on the following case:
My English professor at the university sometimes brings us candy, the first time I heard the sound of the plastic
bag full of candy little by little I began to associate that sound of the plastic bag being shaken when my professor
takes out the candy from his briefcase, besides I love to eat sweets and I always crave them, one day I heard when
my professor took something out of his bag and it sounded like a plastic bag, I immediately thought it was candy
that he had brought us and I craved for candy, but the teacher took out the plastic bag, he took out a bag
containing his markers, every time the teacher takes something out of his bag making a sound similar to the plastic
bag of candy, I crave for candy.
