Объяснение:

Note: The original sentences are mostly correct. However, in sentence 6, "Jon was in hospital for a month," it is more common to say "Jon was in the hospital for a month" when referring to a specific hospital. In sentence 8, "Do you need money?" is grammatically correct, but using "Did you need money?" would be more appropriate in past tense.
