A guard will come and ask us what we are doing.

A guard came up and asked me what had happened.

The guards were civil, though, and only asked my business; one did not need a pass.

The guard at the gate asked him to state his business.

When the two friends got to the hospital, a guard stopped them and asked what they were carrying.

The guard asked if I was a doctor and he let me up.

A guard immediately came forward and asked that we be quiet.

Instead, the guard called out to him and asked where he was going.

The guards at the gate asked him what he wanted.

If the guard should ask anything like that, he was to answer in a certain way.
