Why do some words have double consonants while others have only one?
One-syllable words: If the word ends in a CVC pattern, it gets double consonant
+ ed
Examples:
RUB > rubbed, STOP > stopped
note: Words ending in w,x,y,z do not follow this rule, simply add ED, or ING
Examples: snow > snowed, box > boxing, play > playing
Two-syllable words:
1. If the stress is on the first syllable, the word only gets one consonant + ed
Examples: visit > visited, open > opened
2. If the stress is on the second syllable, the word gets
a double consonant + ed
Examples: refer > referred, admit > admitted

They had been writing to one another for two years before

I'm sorry I left without you last night, but I told you to meet me early
because the show started at 8:00. I (try) ... to get tickets for that play for
months, and I didn't want to miss it. By the time I finally left the coffee
shop where we were supposed to meet, I (have) ... five cups of coffee
and I (wait) ... over an hour. I had to leave because I (arrange) ... to
meet Kathy in front of the theater.
When I arrived at the theater, Kathy (pick, already) up the tickets
and she was waiting for us near the entrance. She was really angry
because she (wait) for more than half an hour. She said she (give,
almost) up and (go) into the theater without us.
Kathy told me you (be) late several times in the past and that she
would not make plans with you again in the future. She mentioned that
she (miss) several movies because of your late arrivals. I think you
owe her an apology. And in the future, I suggest you be on time!
