Examples of use word accepted Example 1A husband and wife were driving down a country
lane on their way to visit some friends. They came to a muddy patch
in
the road and the car became bogged. After a few minutes of
trying to get
the car out by themselves, they saw a young farmer coming
down the
lane, driving some oxen before him.
The farmer
stopped when he saw the couple in trouble and offered to
pull the car
out of the mud for $50. The husband
accepted (synonyms of word accepted above) and minutes
later the
car was free. The farmer turned to the husband and said, "You
know,
you're the tenth car I've helped out of the mud today."
The
husband looks around at the fields incredulously and asks the
farmer,
"When do you have time to plough your land? At night?"
"No," the
young farmer replied seriously, "Night is when I put the
water in
the hole."

business man called and had a question about the
documents he needed in
order to fly to China. After a lengthy discussion
about passports, I
reminded him he needed a visa. "Oh no I don't,
I've been to China many
times and never had to have one of those."
I double checked, and sure
enough, his stay required a visa. When I
told him this he said, "Look,
I've been to China four times and
every time they have
accepted (synonyms of word accepted above) my
American Express."
