Answer 1

Ответь подробно. Change the verbs in brackets into the past simple or the present perfect simple.

a) Tina isn't here. She (just go) __has just gone__ to school. b) What time (you get up) __did you get up__ this morning? c) Paul (have) __had__ a bad car accident three years ago. d) I (live) __have lived__ in the same house since 1995. e) What (you do) __did you do__ last night? f) Brian (not finish) __has not finished__ his work yet. g) Tina (arrive) __arrived__ here in 2001. h) (you see) __Have you seen__ Men in Black? It's a great film.

Here are some rules to help you decide when to use the past simple or the present perfect simple:

- We use the past simple to talk about a specific time in the past. For example, yesterday, last week, three years ago, etc. - We use the present perfect to talk about actions that started in the past and continue to the present, or actions that have a connection to the present. For example, since 1995, for over 20 years, yet, already, etc. - We can't use the present perfect with a finished time word. For example, not: I've been to the museum yesterday.
