I was grateful to John for his kindness．

Every one of us should have a grateful heart．

The football team has signed two new players．

All the signs are that business will get better．

She signed her name on the check．

The police signed me to stop．

I will take up the story where I finished yesterday．

I will take the matter up with a lawyer．

John took up writing poetry at school．

The work took up all the Sunday．

The medicine has a good effect on me．

The government’s action had no effect on the trade imbalance．

His parents have a great effect on him．

The project was only a qualified success．

She gave qualified agreement．

Are you qualified for a doctor?

She is extremely well qualified for the job．
