TENSES FOR A PERSON’S BIOGRAPHY
1. IF THAT PERSON IS DEAD, THE VERBS WILL ALL BE ALL THE SIMPLE
PAST.
2. IF THE PERSON IS ALIVE, ALL FINISHED ACTIONS WILL BE IN THE
SIMPLE PAST ( EARLY LIFE OR SPECIFIC ACTIONS IN HIS/ HER LIFE)
WITH UNFINISHED ACTIONS OR HIS/ HER LIFE EXPERIENCE, THE VERBS
SHOULD BE IN THE PRESENT PERFECT.
USE SIMPLE PRESENT AND PRESENT CONTINUOUS TO TALK ABOUT
THE PRESENT DAY.
