  45. p. 58 - read the article and answer some of the questions
  46. p. 59 part 6 - underline present perfect verbs and circle simple past verbs in the article on p. 58
  47.  
  48. How do we decide whether to use simple past or present perfect?
  49. present perfect if he is still doing the action - “He’s lived in central Africa for years.”
  50. present perfect if an action could happen again - “He’s had malaria several times.”
  51. simple past when something happened in a completed past time - “A few years ago, he survived a plane crash.”
  52. (“a few years ago” is a completed past time, even though he could survive another plane crash in his life)
  53.  
  54. finished time: last year, when I was a child, once, a few years ago, yesterday, before I came to Boston
  55. (finished time always -> simple past)
  56.  
  57. unfinished time: this year, today, this morning, this week, this month, this _____
  58. I took a shower this morning. (The time for showering this morning is finished -> simple past)
  59. I have taken a shower today. (-> the time for showing today is not finished, because I could shower again)
  60. I took a shower today. (-> the time for showering today is finished, because I won’t shower again)
  61.  
  62. He has survived a plane crash. (with no time expression, this means “in his life”, which is not finished)
  63. He survived a plane crash, but now he’s dead. (“in his life” is a finished time, so we must use simple past)
  64. ---
  65. “for” (and the question that goes with it, “how long”) can be used in every tense
  66.  
  67. I lived in Mexico for one year. (the year is finished)
  68. I have lived in Boston for one year. (the year continues to the present)
  69. I am studying English for one year. (the year is continuing right now)
  70. I will stay here for one year. (the year is in the future)
  71. ---
  72. “since” is used in perfect tenses (present perfect, present perfect continuous, past perfect, past perfect continuous, future perfect is possible but less common)
  73. I have lived here since 2008. = I have been living here since 2008.
  74. They had lived together since 2000. = They had been living together since 2000.
  75. ---
  76. “long” actions like “live” and what you do for your job have the same meanings in simple and continuous
  77.  
  78. “medium” actions have a difference in meaning:
  79. I have eaten lunch. = lunch is finished
  80. I have been eating my lunch. = lunch is not finished
  81.  
  82. “short” actions are rarely used in the continuous:
  83. The car has crashed into the tree. = the action is finished (but only recently)
  84. (The car has been crashing into the tree. = The car crashes into the tree repeatedly for a long time.)
  85. ---
  86. non-action verbs don’t require any time, and we don’t use them in continuous:
  87. I have known him for years.
  88. *I have been knowing him for years. (WRONG)
  89. ---
  90. p. 59 part 7 - choose the correct form of the verbs to complete the sentences (did it happen in one specific finished time, or does it continue into the present and possibly the future?)
  91. 1 have also flown
  92. 2 has done
  93. 3 once spent
  94. 4 didn’t have (“that journey” is finished, “since” means “because” in this sentence, not something about time)
  95. 5 filled
  96. 6 has used (“over the years” = during his life, which is not finished)
  97.  
  98. fill / feel / fail / fell / file (these should all have different pronunciations)
