Over to You!

What have you done?

Present perfect is used to talk about life experiences. Now it's over to you to talk about yours, remembering to use what you've learnt.

To do

Do you remember the list of achievements we showed you in Session 1? Have a look and write down the things you have and haven't done.

Now it's time to talk about your own life experiences.

Talk to a friend about things…

  • You have done
  • You haven't - or have never - done

Then ask your friend about the things they have done and never done.

A bucket list

We have talked about bucket lists in this Unit - a list of things you want to achieve before a certain age or before you die. Have a look at this BBC News article about actor Neil Patrick Harris's bucket list.

Hopefully this article will now inspire you to create your own bucket list of things you want to achieve.

Next

Coming next is this week's News Report where you can hear the distressing story of children from Switzerland who have been used as slave labour.

หลักไวยากรณ์จากบทเรียนย่อย

  • Present Perfect

    Meaning and use

    Positive
    The present perfect is made with subject + have/has + past participle.

    I’ve taught English in Italy and in Russia.

    Johnny Depp has starred in lots of brilliant films. 

    Negative
    The negative present perfect is made with subject + have/has not + past participle.

    I haven’t seen the first Bond film.

    I haven’t seen the first Bond film.

    Questions
    Present perfect yes / no questions are made from have/has + subject + past participle?

    Present perfect question word questions are made from question word +have/has + subject + past participle?

    Ever and never
    We often use the present perfect with the words ever or never. Ever mean at any time in someone’s life. We usually use ever in questions.

    ‘Has he ever worked in China?’ ‘No, he hasn’t.’

    Never means not at any time in someone’s life.

    I’ve never seen the first Bond film.

    Sometimes we ask questions with never. Often we do this to express surprise:

    Have you never eaten a banana? 

    Past participles
    The past participle is the third form of the verb. For example, with the verb to see, the three forms are: see, saw, seen.

    We use the past participle in present perfect sentences with ever and never.

    Have you ever eaten sushi?

    I’ve never seen the first Bond film.
