Finn's resolutions

Time to get healthy

Welcome to Unit 14. We're going to practise using the three words just, already and yet with the present perfect tense. As usual, we'll do that with the help of videos and stories.

Do you make New Year's resolutions? These are the promises people make to themselves in the New Year. Often, people say things like 'I'm going to lose weight', or 'I want to read more'. Finn and Rob have made some - and we'll find out what they are in this video.

Finn and Rob made some New Year's resolutions. But what do you think Finn's resolutions will be - and will he keep them? Choose three.

  • Eat no meat in January
  • Eat less ice cream
  • Go running every morning
  • Learn a foreign language
  • Stop drinking coffee

Now, let's watch the video and find out if you were right.

Finn
Hi Rob.

Rob
Hi Finn. How's it going? How are the New Year's resolutions? What was it? No meat? No eating meat in January?

Finn
Yes, that's right. I've just ordered a nice, big, vegetarian breakfast. No meat at all Rob, no.

Rob
Oh right. Good for you. And what about the coffee?

Finn
No, no - I haven't had a cup yet! No coffee for me this year.

Rob
And the exercise? What did you say - a run every morning?

Finn
Yeah that's going really well too, actually. I've alreadysigned up at the gym... and I've just been for my morning run. I'm still in my shorts and t-shirt, actually! Haha. Anyway, what about you Rob? You said you were going to learn a language.

Rob
Yes - I've learned some Spanish: huevos, bacon, salchichas, frijoles y tostadas.

Finn
Wow, that's impressive, Rob.

Rob
Yes, it means eggs, bacon, sausage, beans and toast: a 'full English breakfast'!

So Rob has kept his resolution to learn a foreign language... but Finn isn't doing very well with his resolutions! He made three resolutions: to eat no meat in January; to stop drinking coffee and to go running every morning - he's broken all three!

Finn was fibbing when he said: "I've just ordered a nice, big, vegetarian breakfast." Do you know which tense he used? It was the present perfect tense. And can you remember how Finn used it with the words yet, already and just? Let's do the activity on the next page.
