Grammar?! I love it! (Present Simple)

Dear students,
You must make your sentences in Present Simple using the “markers”
(e.g. normally, often, never, etc, see the expressions in bold) as in the examples:

1) I don’t normally pay attention to the people surrounding me in the underground.
2) I often write e-mail letters to my friends as I do love writing letters.
3) I never speak with strange people. I just go away as quickly as possible. I think that’s because I am afraid of them, what’s more I AM strange myself.-:)
4) I always kiss my child in the evening when she goes to bed.
5) I usually cry when I watch some stupid film about some stupid love story.
6) I seldom eat fast food (but sometimes I SO want to eat something of the kind).
7) Every day in the morning I make coffee and drink two cups of it while watching TV.
8) When I come home I check my e-mail box for new messages.
9) My cousin doesn’t have a habit of eating out once in a while.
10) I don’t agree that money rules the world.

P.S. It goes without saying that the more interesting your sentences are the higher mark you get. Pay attention that you must necessarily use all the words that are in bold (жирным шрифтом) in my examples.

Best wishes, E.Yu.
