1. What tense are nearly all the verbs in the article? Why? How do we form the question
and negative?

Answer:

The Article uses the simple past tense, because past tense verbs describe actions and
activities that have already occurred. They could have happened yesterday, a year ago,
or a century ago.
To form a question in the past tense the structure is as follows:
"did (for the verb) + subject + the main verb + object?”
And,
"was/were (for the non verb) + subject + complement?”

To form a negative in the past tense the structure is as follows:

"subject + did not/didn’t (for the verb) + the main verb + object”
And,
“subject + was not/were not (for the non verb) + complement”
 2. Write the Past Simple of these verbs.
a) Ask : asked
Show : showed
Want : wanted
Walk : walked
Start : started
b) Try : tried
Carry : carried
c) Like : liked
Believe : believed
Use : used
d) Stop : stopped
Plan : planned
T 3.3
3. How is the regular past tense formed? How is the past tense formed when the verb
ends in a consonant + y? When do we double the final consonant?

Answer:

For most regular verbs, we can simply add "-ed" to the base form of the verb.
When the verb end in a consonant + y, we can change the “y” to “I” before adding the
"-ed" suffix. We double consonant when the verbs end in a single consonant, the final
consonant is preceeded by a single vowel (a, i, u, e, o) and the stress of the word falls
on the last syllable.

1. What tense are all the verb forms in exercise 2? Why is this tense used?

Answer:
 It used past continuous tense, because past continuous tense is used to describe
actions or events that were ongoing or in progress at a specific point in the past. It
emphasizes the duration or the progress of the action. Often used to set the scene or
provide background information in a narrative.

2. How do we make questions and negatives?

Answer:

To form question sentence we can begin with the auxiliary verb "was" (for singular
subject) or "were" (for plural subject), followed by the subject, then the main verb in
the -ing form, and finally the rest of the sentence.
We can make the formula of question in past continuous tense:
(Was/were + subject + main verb-ing + complement ?)

To form negative sentence we can start with subject, followed by the auxiliary verb
“wasn’t” (for singular subject) or “weren’t” (for plural subject), then the main verb in
the ing form, and then the rest of sentence.
We can make the formula of negative in past continuous tense:
(Subject + wasn’t/weren’t + main verb-ing + complement)

3. Look at these sentences. What's the difference between them?

When we arrived │ She made │ some coffee

She was making

"When we arrived, she made some coffee."

• This sentence is in the simple past tense.
• It indicates that she completed making some coffee at the time when "we
arrived." The action of making was finished by the time the arrival occurred.
• This suggests a completed action in the past that happened before the arrival.

"When we arrived, she was making some coffe."

• This sentence is in the past continuous tense.
• It indicates that at the time of the arrival, she was in the middle of the action of
making some coffee. The action was ongoing when "we arrived."
• This suggests that the action of making was in progress at the time of arrival,
without necessarily indicating whether it was completed or not by the time
"we arrived."
In summary, the first sentence describes a completed action that occurred before the
arrival, while the second sentence describes an ongoing action at the time of the
arrival.
