How to use task in a sentence?

  1. Vice President-elect Mike Pence:

    The president-elect's made it very clear he wants the Congress when they convene in early January to take up the task of repealing and replacing ObamaCare first.

  2. Top Egyptian businessman Naguib Sawiris:

    It distracts the main focus because we are under a lot of threats. They will not like what I say now but that's my opinion, an army should focus one and only task and that is defending Egypt. Where else in the world do other armies have businesses?

  3. Melissa Cobb:

    I grew up reading Dahl stories and lived large parts of my young life in those magical worlds, so finding just the right creative partner to bring Willy Wonka, Charlie and the Oompa-Loompas to life in animation was a daunting task... until Taika Waititi walked into the room, then it was really obvious. If Dahl had created a character of a filmmaker to adapt his work, I'm pretty sure he would have created Taika Waititi.

  4. Emily Ferris:

    We're still talking about huge amounts of territory -- Ukraine is massive -- even if they are just focusing on the east and the south. Some of the claims from senior commanders that they're going to be establishing a land corridor across the south of Ukraine, it's still a huge task, the fact that they've not been able to take major cities and major rail hubs before is still a problem. I think that's going to persist.

  5. President Petro Poroshenko:

    Today was the first night when we didn't have a single shelling, not one violation of the ceasefire regime, today we face the extremely crucial task of implementing the peace plan.
