Would you explain? This question is relating to New Concept English(Book3 Lesson 2). http://www.putclub.com/html/course/classic/newconcept/book3/2008/0926/7317.html There is a question in the book: "Was the vicar pleased that the clock was striking? Why?" The answer would be "Yes, the vicar was pleased." But I can not answer the question, 'Why?' What is the proper answer? Thank you in advance.
